BlazetheInferno posted:Oh sweet Emperor, YES. As they should. As for the PDF chat. The PDF absolutely do put down plenty of invasions and uprisings. Thing is, whenever the Guard (Or Astartes) are called in, it's in a situation where the PDF has/expects to already be inadequate. The heroes literally only go to battles where the PDF isn't enough. Because if they are, there's no need for the big guns. Let me tell you about the time a pair of D-Cannons took down a Squiggoth. Because Eldar were always ~perfectly balanced~

I loved this game when it came out, but I think I put the most time into Winter Assault playing as Guard. You get the BANEBLADE that way brother.

I will forever love Dark Crusade for introducing me to Necrons. How can you not love Egyptian Robot Zombies that are anathema to chaos? Clearly they will save the universe from Chaos.

If there's anything to love about the Orkz, it's that any level of themed pun game is acceptable for any named Ork. There is no pretense, there's no enforced taste, all you have to do is find one person who'll laugh at it to justify the name. At the lowest end, you can have a nob named Kikadanutz, and it's entirely in lore's flavor. And at the higher end, you can have a Brainboy named Karnage Slamdiego, which just invites all kinds of fun imagery and tales. If it makes the Orkz more fun for everyone, then it not just allowed, it is encouraged.

Ha, I remember playing this on release. I custom made my chapter to the Emporer's pointy sticks (Yes, I did read a lot of TSOALR). Also, fun fact. The last mission, with the water treatment plant, White Dwarf made a table of for a bat rep. (I couldn't find a link). After the bat rep, they sold it off, for reasons. Anyways, it ended up in the hands of a local TO. Yes, I have played on it. More than once. It has like no actual loving cover. Then again, cover is for pussy. My IG gunline loved it. My loota orks loved it because the lootas shot, the looted vehicles shot, and they didn't shoot my boyz until it was almost CC range. Then again this was 4th ed, so yeah.

 New Update! Episode 3: Under Siege In today's episode the Blood Ravens discover that the capital city of Tartarus had a very large cat-flap door and all the Orks managed to get in. Faced with tricked-out cool looking vehicles Captain Angelos decides to release the bane of all fun everywhere. Old people. Poil posted:A shame they didn't base the games on the best chapter. I had a custom banner and badge setup for the Pretty Marines. Just making stuff for that game was so much fun. It's probably all sitting on a hard drive that doesn't work anymore now, which is a big shame. TheLastRoboKy fucked around with this message at 01:42 on Oct 14, 2020 |

they might have been once upon a time if you tilted your head and looked at them funny but in recent releases the Greater Good is just another 'because i said so' moral imperialism and their society is mostly just slavery with an extra coat of paint.

Really enjoying this so far, but I can't help but notice in the newest video that the game sounds, particularly the servitors were kinda loud. Also, it seems like it gets even louder when you guys weren't talking? It may just be me being overly sensitive to cross-chatter, but it made it kinda difficult to hear what you guys were saying sometimes.

Also, it seems like it gets even louder when you guys weren't talking? It gets louder when we don't speak cause of auto-duck. When we speak the volume of the game goes down, when we don't speak it goes back up. I've done this to basically every single game we've ever done that has a commentary in it. It was also in the previous two episodes at exactly the same volume settings. Don't really know what to tell you there I even went back and checked and yeah it's all the same. It might just be because this mission is way busier a lot more often due to waves of enemies.

Orkamungus is such a good name. You've got to wonder if he was called that when he was still just a yoof because I can see a lot of other Orks giving him poo poo for such a pretentious name. More so than Orks usually give each other poo poo.

I disagree with Ultramarines being the most boring ones. That reward goes to the Imperial Fists. I think some BL book confirmed it ages ago that the majority of servitors are made out of clone stock. Which sort of reminds me of a delightful passage in the book The Hollow Mountain. quote:The Imperium trusted cogitators as little as possible, hemmed in by ancient fears and more recent Mechanicus doctrines. Machines were employed when they had to be, but where it was possible to use a human mind, a human mind was used. Also, for someone looking for more Iron Snakes stories take a gander at both of the Sabbat Crusade anthologies. Both books have at least one or two short stories featuring them. Also some fantastic AdMech stories as well. Cooked Auto fucked around with this message at 12:23 on Oct 14, 2020 |

It's always kind of weird to see that opening cutscene where the missile launcher squads try to punch tanks to death. I guess the scripting got broken in a patch at some point, I seem to remember it worked correctly when I played it back in the day. Also if we're discussing Space Marine books, I have to recommend Helsreach & Spears of The Emperor by Aaron Dembski-Bowden. Also Ciaphas Cain, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM is indeed another pro-read.
