There was an outerhab map available on the first day but it was apparently causing (more) crashes so it got rotated out.

I think I did it on Saturday so maybe it slipped through somehow, I've worked in QA and have seen weirder poo poo happen so wouldn't surprise me, also it did crash. Glad to know I wasn't imagining an entire level.

I’ve got the solution. We just take the vermintide characters and put them wholesale into Darktide. 5 complete hams running amok in what’s supposed to be a grim dark setting.

Give Kruber a bolter. He deserves it.

Lol. I know Spain had a not so brief relationship with Fascism, but I don't think it's been a protected political group that you can't bar from private events for a few decades now. I am not a Spaniard though.

Edit: Also lmao at equating kicking Nazis out of your game club because they make people uncomfortable with the Nazis take on ideological discrimination which was to ship you to a death camp.

Soon after that there was a law banning nazi symbology but it's not just a problem in Spain. In lots of countries there is a ban on nazi symbols but not on nazi ideology because it goes against free speech. It's really lovely but that's how it works, even in the US there are things like the National Socialist Movement and New Order.

I'm sure you resolved this already but I didn't see a post about it. This happened to me last night and buying a second curio resolved it. The second one was even too high level for me to equip, but having a second one in the list made the equip button show up fine. Strange bug.

Utility axe or something? I can't recall and the shop has rotated now but I double checked at the time and sure there's three. There was one that was all overhead chops, one that was overhead chops with a sweep attack, and then one that was like a mix between the knife icons and other stuff

While true, that's regarding the government and banning political speech/parties (in the US); political ideology is not a protected class in the US and you can tell Nazis to GTFO as a private citizen/group.

Edit. To clarify, I'm not aware if that concept applies to Spain in terms of private citizens. I'm guessing with Spain's past it's between "We legitimately can't discriminate based on political ideology because of our hosed up history" or "we're using a bullshit excuse on why we didn't kick a Nazi out when everyone didn't want them there. FREE SPEECH!!!!! We're as bad as them if we are mean!!!!"

The amount of weapons that are a named very similarly except for the mk# is kind of infuriating. Like the full-auto lasgun's are all called the same except one is a mkII, one is mkVIb, and the last is mkVIIb. :nallears:

One other useful quirk of wounds is that whenever you get revived you're healed back to full minus the one wound. So if you have a bunch of extra wounds you'll barely notice the reduced HP from doing down, which can be quite useful at times when the game's stingy with medicae stations. (Although personally I've just stacked toughness buffs because of the Zealot synergy.)

Yeah that actually is a nice feature

One of the last Medicae stations I visited had the servitor say something along the line of "Please, do not go. It is so lonely here", and that just caused my group to double-take for a second and just WTF at that.

There is some very black but also very funny humor with the Medicae Stations, which has me really hoping we get a Combat Servitor as a playable character down the line cause well robots/cyborgs with a penchant for ultraviolence is a never ending gold mine for potential comedy

Broken Cog posted:

Was made aware that a special aspect of the Ogryn Grenadier Gauntlet is that its light melee attacks count as heavy attacks. Could have some interesting interactions with the various feats that only trigger on heavy attacks.

Also no one has really pointed this out that it's special attack is a loving explosive piledriver which definitely earns it some style points

field balm posted:

Yeah it's wierd, 40k started off as kinda funny and satirical (think some sort of mash up of red dwarf/early 2000ad stuff) and at some point fans just stopped noticing or caring about subversion and just went 'cool space fascists!'. VT kinda nailed the goofy 80s British tone but I'm guessing the style guide for 40k is all grim all dark all the time.

Thinking about it, whenever I get round to rolling a zealot they'll definitely have dreadlocks and be named Lister of smeg.

I feel 40k has been doing better about not being all serious all the time like it had been for a long time but yeah it definitely still has a ways to go to reach where it needs to go

I know this is not the thread for this but of course as an individual you can kick someone of your establishment but if you say it's because he is a Nazi he can call the police and you are the one in problems because Nazism is not banned in most of the world and is an ideology and discrimination against ideologies is a crime. That is what happened in that Warhammer tournament with that guy and the reason they couldn't kick him.

And this isn't a problem only in Europe. The resurgence of Nazism is a global problem, this is an example of the US from this year:

GW has tried to keep them completely separated but in the old versions of warhammer/wh40k there was some crossover, i remember there was a warhammer campaign that let you get bolters.

In fact I remember a theory, don't know if it was really hinted or people just imagining things, that said the warhammer world was just a feral world in the wh40k universe and Sigmar was a just a primarch.

Don’t be. It’s an excellent all-around melee weapon.

At least on zealot. I don’t know how it shapes up against force sword and such.

E: something to keep in mind for chainsword is the revving animation is long but you can cancel it pretty much from jump and still get the rev. The actual chainsawing someone animation is locked in though, so use with care. It absolutely mulches specials though.

In the early days of the two there were some indirect crossovers, mostly tying into Chaos stuff like Chaos Champions in Fantasy sometimes having what were blatantly 40k weapons or indeed sometimes just plain being Chaos Space Marines, indeed a common fan theory in the early days before the two settings diverged more heavily from each other was that Fantasy was just a random world in the 40k universe and that Sigmar might have been a Primarch(since GW has always had a couple Primarchs intentionally left "lost" and undescribed)
