Something Monat-based Would Be Pretty Cool.

I mean, it's a pretty impressive gun. It's basically a souped-up meltagun, and while it's pretty much single-shot, it'll be one nasty shot.

Imagine being threatened at gunpoint by Sanguinius. Oh no is the great angel going to smite me? Cut me down with his holy blade?

Nope, he just loads his peashooter and puts it against your head.

Gender is just a box. A torsion cannon, on the other hand...

That is a cannon.

joining the Adeptus Mechanicus comes with a low but never zero chance of losing one's gender [and replacing it with a torsion cannon]

Google Astolfo.

If female space marines aren't canon then explain HER^

Context: the French high-speed rail system is called the TGV, short for Train a Grande Vitesse.

Ships are King George V (real) and Bourgogne (paper ship/designed but never built)

Fulgrim was a factory worker growing up. He participated in strikes and labor protests.

What primarch, or hell Astartes or just legion as a whole, has been flanderized by the fandom/who do you have funny facts about that shatters popular perception? I'll go first.

Leman Russ is only pretending to be stupid and has written multiple books in lore (saw someone say more than Magnus but can't find source)

Rogal Dorn putting his hand on Konrad Curzes shoulder after trying to talk him out of killing some people who resisted the crusade (and Konrad being uncomfortable with Dorns "fake friendship".)

‘No,’ said Dorn, placing a golden gauntlet on his shoulder guard. ‘We are liberators, not destroyers, brother. We bring the light of illumination, not death. We must govern with benevolence if these people are ever to recognise our authority in this galaxy.’ Curze flinched at the touch, resenting the easy friendship Dorn pretended. Bilious anger bubbled invisibly beneath his skin, but if Dorn was aware of it, he gave no sign.

Lorgar (upon having his prayer session with the boys interrupted or whatever) told a custodian "I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire". Lorgar also witnessed some ritual in which a naked woman is turned into a demon. So Lorgar has canocially seen a woman naked.

I have two separate armies using Codex: Space Marines, and you could tell them apart from a glance of the army lists, without even looking at the paintjobs (and ignoring divergent chapter units).

I will never understand why people put Space Marines as a "beginners faction". Literally no army allows you to collect 2000+ points worth of gamepieces that do not interact or synergize with each other. Not even talking about building a "competitive" list here, but just about having the pieces work together with the whole thing having base functionality.

Space Marines is literally the worst faction to start with as a new player. It's 10 different armies in a trenchcoat and they do not overlap as much as you'd think they do in what they use and how they use it; all while the game is balanced around assuming you know what you are doing here. This is also the main reason "generic space marine" win rates are usually so low. People get baited into what might possibly the the least beginner-friendly faction because SOMEHOW there persists the idea of them being the "starter army", and then they obviously get stomped.

Not Mine. Thought to Share.

In Messages For Dad, Vulkan has a son named Janan. Janan inherits two good things from his father: his mind and his immortality. He was also born incredibly prematurely (twenty-three weeks), and highly mutated due to the primarch DNA, needing to be constantly on painkillers that would kill a normal child his size. He has "entangled organs ingrown with bones", and a lot of other things. His regeneration also means that any surgery done to treat his condition doesn't work, since he just grows back.

He eventually decides to inter himself in a specially-designed dreadnought (which he designed himself), using fulgrite to halt his regeneration so the dreadnought can slowly disentangle his organs and rework his body so he's not in constant pain--all over the course of about ten thousand years. All this was stuff he came up with himself, too--he *definitely* inherited his father's brain.

Do you know who posted the suggestion about a Primarch- kid instead of being strong and like their fathers ending up horribly ill and fragile because the Primarchs do have kind of fucked DNA?

Because that gave me so many brainworms fr fr, just have been thinking for weeks of giving Bobby G a small spitfire of a kid that kicks ass despite the cards stacked against them and making their dad most likely turn prematurely grey with worry

The one that comes to mind is Callahan from @jaghatai-khock. He has some allergy and would get sick when around Lion.

I know there was someone discussing how screwed up primaech DNA would be when mixed with baselines, but I can not recall who.

Anyone else know?
