      Ooh, I'm going right now and paint the traditional schwastika that existed in several cultures for centuries on all my... what's that? Doesn't matter? You say people will just read it, formally, as something they are more familiar with anyway? Even though it is the reverse direction? Dang it!

      @manleycreative7115 The only similarity between a Maltese cross and an iron cross is that they're both crosses. The difference between historical and religious symbol swastika (sunwheel) and the WW2 one is the angle, sometimes direction.
      Not really comparable.

    The only things I'd add, in my experience. Imperial guard players tend to be ex-army, for obvious reasons, and ultramarine players tend to be American. I think it's because they like good-guy stories and/or happy endings, whereas we Brits like our stories to be more morally grey. I could be wrong but that's what I've noticed.

    I just started GSC. I started liking them because they remind me of the cults in Dead Space. The more I learned of the actual lore, the more I like them. Essentially, in their eye they truly are the good guys. The underdog. Bringint about heaven on earth, fighting the evil fascsit regime. But actually, they are extremely evil 😂

    As for Necrons, I remember you saying in a hobby nightmare maybe over a year ago that your theory was that women are used to not being directly represented in more masculine Hobby's so they naturally go to factions that represent no one, the soulless robots and the space bugs.

When he does this, he traverses the ancient forests of old Caliban in a dream like state and then he walks out of it at his desired destination. He also 1 tapped Angron in the face with a shield bash. All of this happened in the Arks of Omen where Abbadon and Vashtor teamed up to find pieces of a mega weapon. And in the book "The Lion: Son of the Forrest".

  • @BjornKuma
    @BjornKuma Před 5 měsíci +1

    I feel a little slighted as a Deathwatch player... ;) I play them because, as a former Marine, they are the most realistic take on what Space Marines in 40k would be like compared to their 30k ancestors. Given the loss of so many Astartes to the Heresy and ongoing attrition over the millennia, it only makes sense to put all the Space Marines together and then deploy them tactically rather than strategically. I know GW maintains all the different Chapters for the lore and for players to be able to create a spot for their personal armies in that lore, but the Deathwatch is how you would realistically muster and deploy your Astartes. Keep the traditions and training of the different Legions, but blend them all together into a cohesive force that can be deployed consistently with a mix of Legion strengths and minimization of their individual weaknesses. Maintaining the Chapter structure is a detriment to the Imperium.

    Also we bought the army because we thought we could be super sneaky with Cult Ambush tactics only to find we a) suck at strategizing with that and b) got horribly nerfed by GW, as expected.

    As far as the black templars go, what many don’t realize is that the “good” ones and the “bad” ones are just two sides of the same coin. It’s like the difference between the manchild who throws his models when he loses vs the relatively normal 40k guys who are just quietly disappointed. They’re the same guy doing the same things, for the same reasons. It’s just that one knows how to be chill and normal and one doesn’t. This does NOT make the good black Templar players you know bad, but I bet you money that way more of them than you’d think were quietly disappointed when they saw that black black Templar. AND THATS OK

      Not too familiar with Black Templars but I guess it depends on how they recruit. If they all come from the same geneseed like other Chapters then a black BT is diversity inclusion and equity nonsense. If they're like Deathwatch and they recruit from wider pools then it makes sense.

    Back when I played Epic (early to mid 90's), I specifically picked Ultramarines because they weren't special. They were soldiers who adhered to the Codex, rather than having to be "special" on top of being superhuman. Hated factions like Space Wolves...Not only Space Marines, but Space Vikings too! Wankers. To be fair though, there wasn't the massive over exposure back then.

    Heh. I didnt play 40k yet, but im getting there slowly. I collect:
    Ultramarines - i like blue/gold aesthetic, i like that they have roman motives, and i like empire-building attitude. I know for many Guilliman is not cool, but being great fighter is nothing if all your victories falls to nothing in the end. Empire need to be maintained to survive. When i play strategy games i like to have good economy, because then you can afford good army. Also after years of paiting tzeentch (aos) i love how easy is to paint space marines. Relaxing.
    Thousand sons - like i said i like blue/gold aesthetic, i also like magic. But i admit that it is painful for me to paint. It was obvious chocice after tzeentch in age of sigmar, i already have tzaangors. Im kinda sad that Magnus is not competent, and it takes ages to paint.
    I wanted to collect Dark Angels because it was first sm chapter i wanted to collect ever. But my friend already collect them, and i prefer Ultramarines and thats too much plastic.
    I want to collect Adeptus Mechanicus, i have few boxes, but then i say how small it is and full of details and i paused it. Maybe some day. I like science and cyberpunk. Army of cyborgs should be cool. Also models are so cool.
    I wanted to collect Tyranids, because i played zerg in starcraft, but painting many models can be painful. Also sometimes its nice to be bad guy on the tabletop.
    I wanted to collect Orks just for the lolz. Maybe later.
    Im sad i started from Age of Sigmar, my heart is closer to 40k. Also i would prefer chaos to be more free, not so mind controlled by chaos gods.

    Cool, thanks. I collect two factions out of this entire list, and you had nothing but good and accurate things to say about the fan base that chooses those factions, at least things i agree that are accurate about myself. I wonder if my friends would agree with you about themselves and their factions.

    The irritation at a black Black Templar may not be what you think. Space marines, regardless of origin, take after their gene father.
    Some go very pale and others pitch black like the Salamanders. Dorn has pale skin and white hair.

So my list is pretty skewed anymore because nobody seems to have a balanced or painted list for my experience.

    Only wrong bit is I knew I'd get my ass kicked a lot going in. "Can blow up a knight" is like...the baseline for declaring a unit as a decent damage dealer at this point.

    Hey North, let me help you out with Votann plus Deathwatch from a post I sent before:
    Votann
    1. You are from Old Oldhammer. You remember when WH40k Rogue Trader first released and had to ask the store manager what the hell is this. Not because you were that confused, but because you had already sunk a lot of what little teenager high school money you had into Warhammer Fantasy Battle and there wasn't even any WH40k minis out yet.
    Also, no need to have asked - the manager had already greeted you at the door with a, "Ya see the new game from Games Workshop? Just came out. It's like Fantasy Battle only... IN SPACE!
    2. You think Chaos is overblown and has too many spikes. You see Chaos as something a child would select with the mindset of J.J. Abrams when he most assuredly proclaimed, "You know what's cooler than one Star Destroyer?... One hundred Star Destroyers... in ice... with horses riding on them."
    3. You are beginning to look like a dwarf in your later years... so bye bye to elves and that svelte look you had to go along with them.
    4. Why can't you kids these days just give in to the 'Retro-ray-punk-Stanley-Kubrick-NASA-fake-moonman-futurism-mind-bubble' aesthetic and get some damn class.
    Deathwatch
    1. You not only couldn't make up your mind on which Space Marine chapter to paint. You not only wanted all of the colors... you wanted an excuse to paint at least a group of custom made veterans as the dfferent chapters for the sake of variety, even if it meant painting all the rest BLACK! You swore you weren't going to just paint everything BLACK again! (See Old oldhammer reference above).
    2. You understand how to paint black in a more nuanced way than just actual black.
    3. You wanted an excuse to triple down on all that sweet, sweet Inquisition xenos hunter goodness together with the Sisters and Inquisitors.
    4. 'Cause fuck Ravenguard!
