SardonicTyrant posted:What the hell was the point of introducing them if they contributed nothing to the setting? So I’ve never really read much of the HH series (Mechanicum a couple times and maybe parts of some others?), but this fundamentally is my feeling on the whole goddamn series. Even moreso than 40k, the Horus Heresy is a stasis-is-god situation.

I'm always amused that a mini-empire clearly styled on classical Rome with names like Marneus and Aeonid is led by a man named Roboute Guilliman.

The biggest, meanest, most violent monster being named after Margaret Thatcher is really good, though.

First edition 40K was metal as gently caress. It's no surprise it took off as fast as it did. mllaneza fucked around with this message at 01:57 on May 15, 2020 |

Is that the same inquisitor who wants to gently caress genestealers?

old old 40k is loving weird and great. its like those bad books where the assassins turns into a genestealer that has a vagina. its also interesting seeing stuff before the universe and lore are fully hammered out.

So I heard people talking about how Apocalypse of the Space Marine Conquests stuff was a solid book and picked it up despite the poor title and generic looking cover poo poo this is a pretty important book where it confirms the fact that Ecclesiarchy got its doctrine off a loyalist word bearer huh. Also the fact that he was channeling the Emperor to smite the demons as well Very interested to see what they do with the characters in the future

Listened to the audiobook of that recently, highly recommended for both the lore and the extremely racist White Scars voices.
