They gave one fan producer a gig, they might do more. This is terrific news, one more cool thing to watch next year.

Audible are having a large (up to 40% off) sale on everything. If you're looking for cheap warhams, now might be a good time to pick some up.

GW should find their balls and have like, Respawn or someone, make a 40k shooter about the Guard. Huge set pieces, small unit tactics overlaid on a larger theatre of war, absolutely no space marines... it’s glorious in my minds eye

Today's Advent story was an HH short by ADB following Lotara, the captain of the World Eaters flagship and Kharn's best friend, on the journey to Terra. Angron is chained in the hold, World Eaters are slaughtering crew faster than they can be replaced, and the ship has an (insane) mind of its own. Things are so bad a bunch of World Eaters stage a mutiny to escape the ship, they don't even want to leave the legion, just the ship. It's an excellent holiday read.

Dammit, since I don't have an e-reader, this is legit one of the few things I really want in audiobook format. Of course it won't ever get that treatment and I'll likely have to wait until after the Battle of Terra before it makes it into a compilation HH paperback book.

Except you're escorting the titan in a support role. The titan is getting swarmed by ground troops with tow cables and poo poo?   The titan needs you to sniff out Warhounds lurking in the shadows? The titan needs you to massacre the enemy ground troops while they unload Godlike heavy ordnance over head lighting the sky on fire with sound and fury signifying the wrath of Gods?  Also would like a game based on TITANICUS, a mix of elements from tank, aircraft and submarine combat with giant loving robots. Oh and the robots mauling each other with maces and axes on top of that. MariusLecter fucked around with this message at 05:53 on Dec 25, 2018 |

Now that the imperium knows that is what the pylons did and we know (from the alpha legion book, not sure if the imperium knows) that the center of the Galaxy is filled with them I expect this exact plan to come up as a plot point. I think that they will resolve the imperium split issue by using pylons to make a single path through the cicateix maledictum and defending that single path can become the new cadia. With the whole half the alpha legion may still be loyal plot point they might be involved since they know about the pylons in the core.

I was thinking more what would happend if you transported a poo poo ton of blanks to say, Tzeentchs realm. Not the blanks where warp poo poo doesnt effect them, the ones where they project a field of anti-warp gently caress you around them.

Just read The Magos after like.... 6 years of not keeping up. God drat, was it good. I loved Pariah more than most anyone I talked to, and this sets it up so well. also if drusher and macks don’t get a happy ending, like an on-camera happily ever after ending where we can be really sure they’re ok, I will cry

I just finished Magos and enjoyed it a lot. One thing kept bothering me though. All these years I'd always thought "magos" specifically meant a high ranking ad-mech priest who'd mastered one science or another. Is it a more general term equivalent to professor?

The music track is titled "Valkyrie Run" but it should really be called "Scherzo for Valkyrie and Boltgun." Not the best gameplay sequence in the game but definitely the best music.

From the Lexicanum: quote:Members of the Order engage in the Quest for Knowledge as other Tech Priests, though differ in that they regard flesh not as inferior to metal, but instead as a different type of machine So it appears to be ranking of a senior member of the particular sect.

Hot Dog Day #82 posted:Which book does that Alpha Legion business show up in? Sons of the Hydra. It got panned as a bad book but I really enjoyed it. The basic synopsis is an Alpha Legion warband, who still consider themselves loyalists, are on a quest to find Omegon. It eventually leads them to the core of the galaxy where the pylons get more numerous the closer to the center they get to the point where eventually warp travel becomes impossible and a word bearer's ship returns to normal uncorrupted status. Telsa Cola posted:I was thinking more what would happend if you transported a poo poo ton of blanks to say, Tzeentchs realm. Not the blanks where warp poo poo doesnt effect them, the ones where they project a field of anti-warp gently caress you around them. I dunno. I imagine it would work like how a demon existing outside the warp works. It is really hard for them to exist and stay and without proper rituals/power being constantly fed into them they eventually get sucked back into the warp. So the blank probably wouldn't be able to exist in the warp for very long if at all.

I just finished 'Garro' as my first full-length book on Audible, and it was amazing. I knew in advance about Garro's quest to gather legionaries for the Knights Errant, since some of those stories were included in the anthologies I read on my first run through the Horus Heresy, so some of the plot twists (like Loken being the insane beast on Isstvan) weren't a surprise to me, but 'Shield of Lies' had a pretty big mind-blower in store for me. I thought the plot was some run-of-the-mill type of deal where it's slowly revealed that some heretic governor or whatever was funneling resources and war material to a secret base, but I also thought "What if it's actually Malcador that's behind this?", but the latter seemed absurd to me since Malcador wouldn't need to go about it in a clandestine fashion since he's the loving Sigillite and it's his goddamn job to allocate resources in the war against Horus. When they revealed that Malcador was, in fact, behind it, I immediately called bullshit and was bummed out for a bit until Malcador reveals that he's building the fortress monastery of the future Inquisition, which blew my mind, because I realized I had been too dense to pick up on the fact that Malcador couldn't have openly done it since doing its purpose was essential in defiance of the Imperial Truth. Cool drat book, I wish there'd be a whole story arc about the founding of the Inquisition out there. ...or is there one that I don't know of?
