The Idoneth Deepkin Age of Sigmar Battledome is out, if you are into that sort of stuff and are interested in the Atlantean Cthulhu-worshipping elves.
 
Currently playing Eternal Crusade.

I wonder is it possible to conquer the Fortress?
 
Welp...

A LOT of shit just happened with Warhammer Fest.

Let's go over each of the major news.

Rogue Trader First Look
Rogue Trader First Look

First, we have an announcement of Rogue Trader Models for Kill Team, including the most adorable attack doggo charging straight into a daemon to bite its head of. He's the best boy.

Secondly, we have the revival of Adeptus Titanicus! Yes, much like Necromunda last year, GW's reviving another of its old specialist games. And the new Titan models look sick (And will probably cost your soul).
Oh, and we've gotten our first look at how the new Plastic Sisters of Battle models will look like:

PlasticSister
Absolutely gorgeous.

Oh, and Jenetia Krole's Forge World Model was revealed. Like Constantin Valdor before her, she looks great.

As for the Age of Sigmar side, well...

Second Edition was Announced.

Yes.

I supposed I should mention Warhammer Adventures here, since it is an official Games Workshop product, but honestly the whole enterprise is just an incredibly stupid, incomprehensibly bad idea that it boggles my mind to no one.

The setting which invented the term Grimdark, full of fascist killers, genocidal aliens, and eldritch horrors, repurposed for children? Are you ******** me.

... Honestly, though, I'm not even mad. I'm way past that point. It is tremendously stupid, but at least Games Workshop seems to know to, and went as far as to make a separate website for this. These comicbooks are harmless, as long as they stay the non-canon side thing that they are.

Here's the website, if you're curious:

https://warhammeradventures.com/

And this is what this reminds me of:

The Elder Scrolls Adventures with the Dovahkids

Totally tubular, man.
 
Matt has 40k edits.

40k means 40,000.

Warhammer 40,000 has 40,000 in it.

Coincidence? I think not.

But let's go deeper;

WH40K has a legion called the Alpha Legion.

Alpha has 5 letters.

Paint also has 5 letters.

You can paint the Alpha Legion.

Another coincidence? How suspicious...

Legions have Primarchs.

'Primarch' has 8 letters in it.

'Matthew' has 7 letters in it.

8-7 = 1.

There is one Emperor in WH40K.

Speaking of the letter K, you know what else starts with the letter K? Khorne.

Khorne's greatest champion is Khârn the Betrayer.

Khârn has 8 matches currently added to his profile.

Khorne's sacred number is 8.

8 - 8 = 0.

0 was considered heretical in the middle ages because it was the lack of god.

Khârn is a heretic.

'Heretic' has 8 letters in it.

Primarch also has 8 letters in it.

8 x 8 = 64.

64/2 = 4.

4 x 10 = 40.

There are 1000 space marines in each chapter.

1000 x 40 = 40,000.

Matt has 40,000 edits.

Coincidence? I don't think so.

Schroeder has 9 letters in it.

Alpharius also has 9 letters in it.

Alpharius is a heretic primarch from Warhammer 40,000.

With the evidence listed above, there is only one conclusion:

Matthew Shroeder is Alpharius confirmed.

Basically, Mortarion calls him on his holovid thing and Typhus immediately gives Mortarion the 'reason you suck' speech, then when Mortarion tried to tell him his plan Typhus deconstructs it and tells Mortarion to **** off before then immediately saying that without Typhus' help Mortarion would be dead and then hung up on him. Typhus also says Nurgle loves him more than Mortarion.

Heres the quote:

For all the racket of Typhus' manifestation, his contempt was clear when he spoke. 'Gene-father,' he said. 'My son,' said Mortarion. His tone was coolly indifferent, whereas his son's was provocative. 'We are gathered then, the three champions, followers of the seventh path, masters of life and death.' 'Not yet masters,' said Ku'gath with a sorrowful shake of his great horned head. 'Unworthy acolytes.' 'The time of your redemption is at hand,' said Mortarion. 'The sevenfold way opens. The seven campaigns of this invasion bear fruit ready to rot. Roboute Guilliman has returned to Ultramar.' Ku'gath gave a sly look of delight, almost a smile. Typhus laughed. 'You are foolish, my lord father, if you think this will end well,' said the first captain. 'We should have finished his realm while he was absent.' 'Typhus, Typhus,' said Mortarion. 'So long you have lived, and so little you have learnt. What use is the destruction of a kingdom without the death of the king?' 'A king without a kingdom is no king, but a vagabond. His suffering would have been pleasant meat to savour,' said Typhus. 'You court disaster in confronting him. This employment of the Hand of Darkness is convoluted and foolhardy. Simplicity was the watchword of our Legion ― the direct attack, the weathering of pain, not this deviousness. This was not the plan of the Great Father.' 'It is my plan!' said Mortarion, his gloomy voice rising stridently. 'And its success will honour the Great Father. He entrusts us with our will and our initiative. I will use mine. He will be pleased.' 'If you succeed,' said Typhus. He looked around the horarium disdainfully. 'You are blinded by the past as always, my lord. You look to Barbarus and remake it wherever you go. Embrace change fully. Embrace Chaos. Abandon these schemes. Let us drown Ultramar in disease and move on.' Mortarion flung up his arms and spread his wings. 'I have, and this is my reward! I am remade in terrible image. I am become death!' 'You do not believe. Not truly,' said Typhus. 'You have paid nothing for your power. The false Emperor made you, gene-father. Nurgle took you as a prize ― you are a trophy, my lord. You would never have found your way to enlightenment without me. Without me, you would have nothing. You would be dead, your soul dispersed into the warp. I fought my way into the Great Father's attention. I became his herald by will and by the dint of my own efforts. What have you done to win his favour?' 'Curb your insolence,' said Mortarion. 'Or what, my lord? I have Nurgle's favour. You would not dare to move against me. You think that you are in control, that your new being is separate from the warp and yours to do with as you will. It is not. It is Nurgle's. You must submit to him fully, or Grandfather will have hard lessons for you. This plan of yours, to lead your brother on Nurgle's dance, it is ill-conceived. If we must strike, strike now. We should gather our fleets and cripple his forces while they gather at Macragge. Do not allow him the luxury of time to consult with his warriors, or consolidate his position.' 'Do not presume to tell me what to do,' said Mortarion. 'You will work with us.' 'I will do as I please,' said Typhus. 'If only you would abandon the last of your being to the lord of life, you would see. You have no power over me. You do not truly understand. If you did, then you and I might be reconciled.'
'Do you level the same criticism against Ku'gath, first captain?' said Mortarion icily. 'You dare speak to him in that way?' 'He is as flawed as you, in his own way,' said Typhus. 'Maudlin where you are nostalgic.' Ku'gath nodded dolefully. 'You are right! I am unworthy. So unworthy. I cannot help it.' 'All Ku'gath cares for is setting right the loss his birth caused,' said Typhus. 'He at least desires to honour Nurgle through his efforts, and so can be forgiven. You seek to honour yourself. You do your own work with this fool's errand. Give him a day too many, and Roboute Guilliman will defeat you, and we shall lose all hope of bringing Ultramar within the walls of Nurgle's manse.' 'You will obey me. You will follow our plan,' said Mortarion. 'I require your vectorium at Espandor, when the time comes.' Typhus snorted. 'You cannot command me as you once did. I am high in the favour of the Plague God ― equal to you in his eyes, if not higher. Who was it who delivered him the Death Guard? It was I, not you. You still do not understand the true nature of Chaos. I do. I am following our plan as originally formulated. The blessing of the Great Father was on that strategy, not on this quest for vengeance. You deceived me, Mortarion. You intended to play with your brother all along. This will displease the Plague God. I will continue as we originally agreed. I will have no part in this folly.' 'If you will not come to Espandor, you will be at Parmenio. The numbers do not lie, my son. It is calculable. Great Nurgle will command it is so. It is preordained.' 'Maybe there is hope for you,' said Typhus. 'More and more you dabble with the warp's true power. Perhaps one day you will master it, and leave your bitterness against your Barbaran father behind you. But you are wrong if you believe that I will fight at your side. You have no real foresight. I will not be there to help you, no matter what your numerology says. And now I go. Be warned, little father ― I have the ear of the Great Father himself.' Typhus' image blurred and vanished.

Depends on how big and orky they are.

Also, Imperial Knights Codex was released and I'm giving it a look.
 
Would a Fabius Bile profile be a viable endeavor? I'm not knowledgeable enough about him nor do I really have the time to go get books and stuff with him in it and scour them for feats right now, but I feel like some of his stuff like cloning Horus, having knowledge of the Emperor's DNA, and his relationship with the chaos gods being far less of an exploitative one then basically every other chaos space marine to the point of having made bargains with them before could have some interesting implications for what he could do.
 
What about people like Ghaz and the old Beast?
 
Yeah, Ghaz is hard to rate.

The Beast(s) should likely be 4-B, as one of them stalemated Vulkan and they were supposed to be Primarch level, but I'd need to finish the whole series.
 
What's the issue with Ghaz? Is he more inconsistent then the rest of Warhammer or something, or just a lack of quantifiable feats/fighting characters who can scale to quantifiable feats?
 
Some fun shit I read in the Knights Codex:

  • The Force-Field of a Knight atomizes the enemy fire that comes in contact with it
  • Even shit-tier, tiny Armiger Knights wield Melta-Cannons that are far larger than Multi-Meltas.
  • Regular Imperial Knights can one-shot anything short of a Superheavy Tank or a Titan with their Melta-Cannons, and hack through virtually anything with their chainblades
  • There exist special Knight Heroes who defeated Chaos and Tyranid Titans in single combat, which is akin to Knights slaying dragons and whatnot.
  • There was a Chaos Incursion led by a Great Unclean One that threatened to consume an entire Sector. The Imperial Response consisted of an army of billions of soldiers, led by over 600 Imperial Knights. All of these Knights save 6 died in the final battle against the Great Unclean One.

This is a stupidly good Greater Daemon feat for people who seem to ignore every actual feat they perform themselves if it doesn't involve scaling.
