I dont believe they will, but if they did they'd probably just handwave it as attrition. They get replaced with primaris over time until almost all the originals are wiped out.

Strobe posted:RE: Gets Hot, doesn't this mean that if you roll a 1 with a -1 to hit, that it's actually a 0 and you don't Get Hot? No, the developer's commentary states you cannot get a cumulative result of less than 1, specifically for situations like that.

http://natfka.blogspot.com.au/2017/07/this-weeks-pre-orders-with-us-and.html?m=1 Price leaks for the space marine codex. 50 bucks base, 80 dollars for the collectors edition and...250 dollary-doos for the "primaris edition". The gently caress could be in that?

Horus's betrayal honestly only works if the Emperor is emotionally attached to his sons. I prefer it that they started out as tools, but slowly he gained respect for them and saw them as people. It makes the whole horus heresy more tragic when he finally opens up and just gets poo poo on by half his sons.

Zuul the Cat posted:I disagree. I think if anything, it really makes the entire universe more grimdark and makes the Heresy a little more polarized, because now instead of the traitor legions just being traitorous scum, you can sympathize with them. I dont disagree, The Emperor is more than kind of a dick. Hes every fedora wearing reddit user given superpowers. He thinks he knows better because he has reason and logic and not feelings. He really doesnt give a crap about anyone on a personal level, hes just a glory hound. But i think that's why him caring about his "sons" works. Its a man who spent millenia being a sociopath and now for once he cares about someone other than him. He opens up, gets punched in the gut and it creates his downfall. Like, its way more emotionally poignant and grimdark than "my tools broke beep boop."

chutche2 posted:Manus would despise it, though. He was very much against the cyborg bullshit the Iron Hands got obsessed with. The metal on his arms were a coating that he said he would one day try to remove, because he felt strength should come from oneself and not chopping poo poo off and replacing it. Actually yeah whats the deal with that? I play thousand sons and have magnus, I wondered what the deal was with the techno parts on his body. Someone who knows ham lore better than i care to explain?

Safety Factor posted:Sorry, y'all, it's confirmed in Dark Imperium that the Emperor is still alive. Guilliman talked to him in person when he got to Terra and though the Emperor is even more alien and inhuman than he was 10,000 years ago, he's still there. His body's basically a corpse, however. Do they though? I thought it was left open ended because it happens behind closed doors. Guilloman could absolutely be bullshitting because he knows the Imperium would collapse into civil war if they didnt have their faith in the God Emperor to give them a common cause.

Yeah id see it as like a religious schism with some seeing Guilliman (and potentially his brothers)as prophets to bring the new word of the Emperor, while others feel they're decievers trying to lead the Imperium off its righteous path. These splits would be individual rather than "ok sisters of battle go here, adeptus mechanicus go here".

The Bee posted:"soon you’ll have your own tricks and ploys to play, and unique rules for your Traitor Legion, Astra Militarum Regiment or Forge World of choice." Naw, in the FAQ they said individual craftworlds rules are coming back and cited necrons getting dynasty rules and adeptus mechanicus as getting forge worlds. I dont think its indicative of the order they're coming out but it does sound like they want to give every faction something similar to space marine chapter tactics.

Hummingbird James posted:Don't forget that there's a near-perpetual motion engine inside it, that they don't have the instruction manual for because the guy who invented it didn't share how it worked before he died. So, since they're too scared to turn it off in case it doesn't turn back on again, they store Dragoons and Ironstriders either in huge circular barracks, where the walkers are constantly turning and the riders have to be lowered on with a huge crane, or on huge treadmills to (very inefficiently) transfer that energy into other machinery. Jesus gently caress I love 40k.
