Each of the base marine detachments except for First Company is designed to be particularly fitting for one of the codex-compliant first founding chapters.
Anvil Siege Force: Imperial Fists
Stormlance Assault Force: White Scars
Ironstorm Spearhead: Iron Hands
Gladius Task Force: Ultramarines
Firestorm Assault Force: Salamanders
Vanguard Spearhead: Raven Guard
They are also pretty blatant about which chapter they correspond to. Anvil has an enhancement related to the chapter fleet, which seems like it comes out of the blue until you realize that the Imperial Fists have always had a pretty important and powerful fleet.
Ah classic GW, going out there proclaiming the "year of chaos" or whatever and then on the reveal show that has all established chaos legions primed they show off more new/refreshed models for some redundant cringe Space Marine offshoot than the actual chaos factions get.
In addition, they somehow imply to make Imperial Fists and Salamanders unique factions BEFORE Drukhari is even on the horizon for a Codex. Just what is up with that?
GW, what the hell?
I like what the paint job does to the face. It makes him look like he's been doing space drugs for the past ten millennia.
I don't want Fulgrim to look untouched by the past ten thousand years.
How do you feel about Fulgrim's new model?
this head specifically looks like a harlequin mask
So much of the discourse surrounding anything Slaanesh-related is so obnoxiously full of homophobic undertones.
Frankly, I hate how Slaanesh is so often reduced down to just "haha sex addiction haha". There is so much more to the God of Excess than that.
i just want the EC to be respected. okay. as they are. not just the pre heresy version of them. not some macho masculine version of them. as they are. with all their problems and beauty and messy infighting and substances and queercoding and everything. can we just be respected. please
What do you take him for? Some kind of scientist?
I like to imagine Cawl making AI copies of Pre-Heresy Fulgrim and Ferrus (something along the vibe of Bile making Clonegrim and Cawl making AI Roboute) but he hides them inside a computer or something so no one can find it, and these two living AI copies are kinda just chilling in a made up world together, thinking this is reality and that they're in a time of peace post-crusade and forging weapons every day to pass the time.
Can you imagine something like San Junipero from Black Mirror? Where these two are still close and happy together, living in a fake world inside a computer/simulation (╥ᆺ╥;)
"Dear diary, a creepy giant stared at me today. I didn't like it as much as I thought I would".
had a thought at how the npcs on the ship in space marine 2 are just going about their day yapping to the superior or inferior officers and then Titus just walks up beside them, and he just... stops. listens to your entire conversation, and then just continues like ??? how would one even react to that?
The reboot gives him the ability to survive in hard vacuum, so no, you are not wrong.
The legend, the moment, the babygirl of all time (*/ω\*)
Given Malcador's expression, that's exactly what just happened.
You know that time a couple invited the Queen of England to their wedding and she actually showed up? Imagine someone kinda jokingly inviting a Primarch or even Big E Himself and to their shock (and likely horror) they rsvp
Fucking hilarious. Big E could technically shapeshift into a less recognizable form but where's the fun in that? He arrives as he is, with Malcador as his plus one.
Call my tastes tacky if you like but your heart knows it’s true
Damn, AI *is* getting smarter!
World's most divorced man becomes first human to be alienated from both biological and digital children.
Tumblr already has a personalization algorithm it's called my beloved mutuals who have great taste and only wish to psychologically damage me sometimes
me impatiently to the little french cat boiling me in a stew: chat am I cooked
