I thought it was after wiping out Armageddon once or twice the Imperium figured out killing everyone who has had contact with chaos was a pretty lovely tactic.

Aren't they fighting "newer" marines? I thought post Heresy marines sucked compared to ones from their era.

I always thought that the different "types" of lasgun was just different power settings of the gun. The more juice you give it the more it has an "impact."

Demiurge4 posted:There's a comment in the Thousand Sons book, where Ahriman(?) mentions that Magnus doesn't have organs. That's he basically a great psychic force, bound inside a meat shell. It wouldn't surprise me if the Primarchs are basically Daemon hosts wherein the Emperor bound powerful warp entities. That may explain why he never bothered to tell the primarchs anything.

So if humanity is getting more and more psychic as time goes on, could they potentially all get absorbed into the Golden Throne by the Astronomican if there are not any non-psykers left? We don't know the process, only that they're sacrificed. It would be a funny way to wiped out humanity beyond war all the time.

Someone mentioned that the Imperium keeps on paying Cain even after he was really dead because he kept on being pronounced dead and coming back with an army. What's to stop some clever upstart from saying "I'm totally Cain" down the line because he wants the fame and thinks it's a cushy gig?

Dravs posted:Yes but then he would get sent off into the worst hellhole warzone moral threat imaginable. Cain didn't have an easy gig because his fame meant he kept on getting sent into situations he did not want to be in. Clearly our new hero would think it's all hyperbole.

PantsOptional posted:Keep in mind that Ravenor is in a profession where "you might get eaten by demons/xenos/cultists" is in the job description, so whatever happened to him must be pretty loving awful. I thought the quote was kind ambiguous if it was about Ravanor or Eisenhorn.
