Wait Matt Ward wrote this? Don't Wardian Smurfs scale to Abaddon the Despoiler due to being the best space marines of all time and all the other chapters secretly want to be just like them when they grow up? \s
Terminator armour was based on suits designed to work inside dusion reactors wasn't it? I may be misremembering but I think it's a bit silly to assume The Imperium doesn't have efficient fusion reactors considering their general mastery of plasma and ridiculous technological advancement.
Again...
I'm inclined to say 1, since Yujiro learning something far more potent than his demon back seems quite off to me.
Also why is radiated energy used for Yujiro's earthquake feat? It was a natural earthquake, surely taking the time it lasted and figuring out how much energy was left based on the...
If you guys don't mind, I'd like to weigh in on the Xiao-Lee matter.
Reapplying the 10-C to 7-C multiplier would be rather inflated, however I can think of three possible alternatives.
1. Simply add the difference instead.
2. Take the result from one of hanayama's young feats, perhaps the...
Ah, excellent. What about the rest of my points? Currently Lord Vile is below Kitana's base, which was anywhere from 3-100 times weakerr than when she, Doran and Sean fought him.
Aight, this has been a long time coming in my opinion. This wiki's scaling for Skulduggery Pleasant is quite lacking and I'm going to try and go through why.
Firstly, Darquesse. Darquesse currently has one rating, small city level possibly city level. This is probab;y an awful idea since she...
Them being called miniature suns, as well as their temperature being comparable to the core, was considered sufficient reason to use the core's density. I personally am on the fence about it.
And fusion reactors don't need to make a net gain in energy for us to use them as a basis for the...
That is a fair point and I agree with the principle, however we also need to consider two things; 1. Plasma fire is regularly compared to miniature suns, this MIGHT not just be I temperature.
2. The process at which the hydrogen is heated is done using a "fusion core" so we can assume a similar...
Pressure isn't measured in joules, the energy in the sun's core is 250 billion atmospheres. This is 25 billion MPa or 25 quadrillion newtons per square metre. A 100 kiloton nuke would have a radius of around 1300 metres with ablast pressure of 20 psi. 20 psi is about 138,000 newtons per square...
Because explosive yield is measured in tons of TNT, not tons of weight or force.
Also pressure isn't measured in kilotons, it's measured in pascals, pounds/sauare inch or other units of pressure.
Basically it diesn't need the same force. It could have a millionth of the force, if said force...
I don't really have the knowledge to comment, considering I can't find a solid number for a nuclear blast's pressure and that there may well be a miniscule fraction of a second in which it's comparable, as is the case with the temperature.
When I say "according to Lexicanum"in this case I basically mean "assuming this is correct, I think a point could be made there." I'm not saying we should assume as such, just citing it as the source causing me to think the argument might be there. If that makes sense.
I personally think it's more accurate to use the density of the part of the sun with the same temperature, due to it being one of the only observed circumstances for hydrogen to reach that temperature. Not to mention being regularly compared to miniature suns. Though I also see the merit in...
About scaling that calc to regular Astartes, I'm fairly sure the high end was approved due to being more consistent with the stated temperature.
Also I'm considering doing a re-re-calc since I think assuming .75 calibre would be more accurate than assuming .50 since that's about the size of a...
I actually did a recalc for that a while ago using specific heat capacity, since the original calc assumed the projectile was lasting for one second and all sorts of other stuff. Iirc it was approved by at least one calc group member. I'll link it bellow...
Huh. I've been meaning to make an Ork profile. Give 40ks football hooligans a chance to shine. I imagine they'd probably scale so I may do some digging for a calcable lasgun feat beforehand.
And on the matter of the different profiles for different authors, fair enough. Though DC has differfent profiles based on different... What would they be called? TImelines? Whatever they are New 52 is separated from the Golden age of superman. And in the case of 40k there are many...
Yes, it is. I'm just pointing out there's at least an argument there, it's not one I agree with. I think it's safe to say the mention of anti-tank rounds is enough to imply it's piercing which would make area irellevant. And assuming they're shifting their body to absorb extra damage would be...
Also I was referring to the general trend of exaggerated writing and inconsistent numbers seen in Warhammer in general. I could've sworn I read about Marines being 9+ feet in some novel, I can't recall which though.
If I'm being honest I'd be for making separate profiles for versions of each...
I agree, but for the sake of providing the ability to address a possible counterpoint. The Artificer in question may be more able to do so due to a smaller area, or even the ability to shift their body and reduce the impact (leaning back to glance punches off yourself can help survive them, I...
I probably should have clarified the best estimate for Spacemarine mass comes from a Death Watch number giving 500-1000 kilograms for 2.1 metres. I mentioned the square-cube law since that would likely be used to figure out the number based on the increased height. EIther that or just roughly...
Who wrote the novel in which the SPHESS MEHREEN was atomised? It may be important since they vary from barely two metres to over three metres in height depending on the author. (Iirc they were universally seven feet before Dan Abnett popularised the eight feet Demigods). Square-cube law says 2-3...
That's not ovethinking, what you're describing is straight-up bias. Which I am quite sure I'm not, I'm just trying to make sure this is as accurate as it can be. I really like Warhammer and this wiki so I want to do my part and help as much as possible.
I mean, this is a site based around using real-world mathematics and scientific principles to figure out which fictional character would beat up the other. Overthinking is kind of the point, right?
Titans can still break through each other's armor with simple steps. A couple hundred of tons won't break through High 6-A armor. Obviously the Termies themselves don't have High 6-A dura since it's a far tinier point of impact, but it's still a supporting feat."
Supporting feat for what? And...
"Except that isn't a consistent feature of it. If anything I'd argue the only consistent features of it are that it possesses some kind of effect over matter and that it's beam is based on range, as seen in these two scans. And choosing to take the "transmutes into energy" interpretation over...
Okay, I've made something similar to this before but it was in a different thread and I don't think I was able to fully articulate myself so I'd like to at least try and properly explain my reasoning behind this further to see if I can get it right this time.
In the previous thread I mentioned...
Sorry for the late reply, I'll try to get into them.
The shield was more a matter of uncertainty for me when I made the profile, since I was unsure whether it counted as durabiltiy since it was something he actively needed to put up in front of him instead of something that clung to his skin...
A few questions, if you don't mind.
Firstly, what would you say is the rough percentage of awakened occupying each Tier? How many 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc...
Secondly, how is this normally used in-game in your experience? I know that V:TM had some major issues with older Methuselahs being effectively...
Hmm, sounds about right. I remember a lot of stuff being up to the GM in Vampire, not surprised it's the same in the other games.
does this mean my game where Absimilard got killed by a redneck's faith in his protection rifle is canon now?
cough
So if I'm a Tier 1 newly awakened in a game...
Also if you have any scans for Werewolves and Kindred being awesome then drop them on my message wall and I'll calc them when I can, it only just occurred to me that I may be somewhat more useful with the maths section than I'd be trying to learn tons of lore in a few days or weeks lol.
I'm honestly quite curious about what the gameplay's like when you can just thonk people out of reality, how does that play out normally? I know paradox is a thing, so is that a huge limitation or what?
