Games Workshop had to make the Tau less sympathetic by adding in brainwashing pheromones and mandatory sterilization of client species. Because otherwise their faction was obviously the good guys with a moral high ground of "not being cartoonishly evil to the detriment of our cause" Even now, they still come off better than the other guys.

That only happened in Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.

The most interesting part of WH40K lore is that it's so far into the future that technology which are commonplace today are lost or forgotten since (in the setting) millennia ago.

Then there's the Dreadnought which has a dead space marine in a coffin inside that is controlling the Dreadnought with its soul or whatever.

And hey let's put a tactical cathedral on this giant mecha. 40K is so dumb. I love it.

The Space Marines in Dreadnoughts aren't dead, they just got so hosed up they never could fight again. So their useless bodies are put inside a big robot body and their brains are linked to the machine. They all eventually go insane from this they sleep when they aren't needed.

And Titans don't have a cathedral on them, they are cathedrals. Titans, especially Imperator-Class Titans, are considered among the greatest creations/manifestations of the Machine-God. They are both places and objects of worship, they literally require worshipers inside of them to function in order to appease their machine-spirit. They don't just need physical maintenance, they need Tech-Priests in there sanctifying, anointing, genuflecting, etc.

for people who don't know what we're talking about, this is an Imperator-Class Titan

Kid dies from bees.

To elaborate, the original movie was not a silly "B" level comedy with Seinfeld, but instead had Macaulay Culkin, that goofy and clever kid who outsmarted the sticky bandits. In this movie, he first has a touching childhood friendship develop and then he suddenly dies.

6 year old me did NOT know that people, much less kids, died in non-sci-fi movie before the last 10 minutes of that movie.

A tragic ending to a happy-seeming growing-up-together movie that blindsided many kids when they watched it for the first time. That rascal Barry the Bee :rolleyes:

The sterilization bit yeah, but the brainwashing pheremons bit is from an official book.

It was written from the point of view of an Imperial xenologists, for an Inquisitor. So he still might have made the pheremons up in-universe for whatever reason. :iiam:

It might have been funny 10 years ago. We live in a day and age where weapons manufacturers make ads bragging about how their missles are made by a diverse group of people from various backgrounds, ethnicities, religions, genders, and sexual orientations.

Edit: oh, that's not a comment, that's literally the whole ad.
