Cythereal posted:Betrayer. During the Crusade and the Heresy, the captain of Angron's flagship is a woman who shoots a World Eaters captain in the face and is buddies with Kharn. The Mistress of the Vox was a hardwired-to-the-hololith teenage girl (Seriously, ADB), so was one of the moderati in the warhound titan that tagged along with the Shadow Crusade. There was also a lady general on Nuceria that did little else but wet herself, but was built up to be quite a competent badass elsewhere.

TBH just do Helsreach. People area already broadly familiar with the concept of "Ork" so it'd work easily enough. Of course, Helsreach itself would still work best as a HBO series so...

Or as a web series by Richard Boylan, because holy hell that guy is a good cinematographer. If he found a better way to do the MoCap than using his Kinect camera, he'd be unstoppable.

I don't know what GW or BL are thinking in NOT paying Richard Boylan to stop what he's doing and have him officially do Helsreach. Give him all the support and resources he could ever need and watch the popularity and sales sky rocket.

And there would be a bunch of shirtless Orks playing beach squig-ball. And a Speed Freek racing down the tarmac with his kustom bike. I would totally watch this movie.

Moose-Alini posted:Is there anything anywhere in fluff or codex to support this? I been searching since day one and can’t find it. This seems to come from a quote or Facebook comment by someone who may not know at GW during the primaris reveal festivities. Hmm, fair enough. It was talked about in the 40k thread at some point, and since I haven't really faffed about with the tabletop game since a few games with my brother in 7e, I assumed it was in something I hadn't read yet. Guess I'll correct that ol' misconception.

In the Blood Angels codex, for instance, it talks about how after The Devastation of Baal the scout company is incredibly oversized as they try to recover. It's completely unclear if those scouts will eventually turn into Primaris marines though, with some people desperately grabbing onto a single sentence buried deep in the book that further muddied the waters. The to this particular question clearly that it would make no sense to keep making the old marines when they suffer from a flaw that was slowly destroying the entire bloodline while, at least as far as anyone knew at the time, the Primaris didn't have any such issue. So in answer to your original question nobody knows and there's what appears to be a deliberate lack of information that would support either argument.

I really want old space marines to be able to be upgraded. There’s so many good characters that I don’t want to be left behind. It’s just that most hams seem to take for granted that they can, while nothing says either way. Edit: it says at the end of Baal that they get the setup needed to make new Primaris, at least from initiates. Lots of emotion about the prospect however.

I could be wrong but I thought the primaris geneseed could basically be applied as an upgrade to existing marines? I'm sure popular characters will get extra organs at some point. Or maybe some custodes brand alchemy hand waving to make them sufficiently not-obsolete. The trick will be making it an interesting narrative instead of "lol everyone got more space steroids, also lets play Kevin Siembieda's Rift RPG".

They've been confirmed to be Raven Guard descendants. The pre-Corax Raven Guard were... not very nice people, and after the Heresy, Corax took everyone left in the legion who kept to the old ways and exiled them to hunt forever in the darkness above the ecliptic plane.

They haven’t been confirmed either way exactly there’s a bunch of fluff for the night lords theory and one of the Horus heresy black books just straight up says they are raven guard with the red tithe author saying in interviews maybe both are true and that his books will explore that. The joys of vaguely conflicting canon!

I hope I'm not coming off like a dick telling people they are wrong. I sincerely want the answer to this question, but as far as I can tell, there's no hint in canon that this is a thing, but a single off hand Facebook post started the whole belief.

Has the 40k lore ever touched upon doing asteroid mining etc or has that just been wholly ignored due to utilization of space resources not being very conductive to tabletop spacemans?

I know the Night Lord novels have a rogue trader crew mining an asteroid at one point (and then the Night Lords arrive and... yeah...). As far as large-scale mining officially sanctioned by the Imperium, probably not when they can just set up shop on a planet and stripmine it for all useable resources with less overall effort.
