wolf this wolf that YIFF YIFF our Primarch is a dick!
this is the most fedoracore chapter possible
>muh vikings
>furries
>werewolves to attract Twilight audience
they should seriously be removed
>>44463759
I'm 50/50 on whether bait or not, but they're not werewolves to attract the Twilight crowd, the Twilight crowd doesn't play /tg/
Having said that, yes, they've been flanderised. They need a wipe back to 2e/3e lore and characterisation.
>>44463759
worst chapter ever

Why does this trigger people so much?

I never got the full blown REEEEE level of hate on the space wolves. It's only a 4chan thing

that alone should tell you they are faggots
>>44467710
What's a better chapter/legion then, anon?
>>44466912
Yeah okay they have a lot of wolf shit so?
Wolves are basically ingrained into their culture/religion before the emperor came and shit Russ was literally raised by wolves Ala that one guy from myths name was Brutus I think anyway why would you expect anything else?
Especially from 40k where you take something crank it up to 10 decide that isn't nearly far enough break the nob off and keep going over the top
tl;dr Shit son take it easy
>>44467781
Astral Claws
>>44467890
You mean the faggot space pirates?
>>44467890
They are heretics though
>>44467781
Raptors
>>44463759
I'll never have the time but I still want to run a somewhat light-hearted meta game where a bunch of eclectic 40k PCs manage to find out that the Space Wolves know exactly what the narrative is, and use that to their advantage to get away with fucking around and being human without having to deal with the obnoxious chaos nonsense and murderous puritanism of their own.
>>44467781
Ultramarines
>Based off of Romans
>Wear clothing with their armor
>Venerated and Grand Artificer Armors
Literally the Opposite of Space Wolves in Theme and Aesthetic
These recent bait threads aren't very good.
>>44467862
>break the nob off
yoo wot git?
>>44467593
This.
They were cool before GW went nuts with the dig fucking.
>>44463759
>fedoracore
>doesn't like Norse werewolf super soldiers
>>44463793
Isn't all of 40k flanderised because almost non of the original authors still produce content and the new generation is basically writing 40k fanfic?
>>44468767
why would anyone like Norse or werewolves?
>>44468923
>butthurt englishman detected

It was Romulus and Remus that got raised by wolves you nigger

Thousand Sons
they did absolutely nothing wrong
magnus did most things wrong though
>>44469252
Therefore all Space Marines take Guilliman as their spiritual liege.
Guilliman takes Russ as his spiritual liege.

>Therefore all Space Marines take Guilliman as their spiritual liege.
It's actually Calgar.
>>44469382
DA, BA and SW confirmed as only good chapters
>>44469113
Saxons defeated vikings so I don't see why Brits would be butthurt.
>>44467862
seems like you'd make a good space wolf though because you obviously can't fucking read, I was defending the Space Wolves you dumb nigger
>>44468476
>Based off of Romans
So, just another kind of faggots?
>>44469269
Magnus did nothing wrong
>>44469269
The foundation of their psychic teachings was making pacts with daemons, their sin was being incredible stupid at what they were supposed to master.
Jaghatai had a better approximation and study to the psychic thing than fucking magnus.
i like wolves i just look past the wolf this wolf that thing
only thing i dont like was the burning of prospero
Magnus was a good boy
>>44473768
He was kind of an idiot.
He found some strange being in the warp that offered him shady deals for more power and knowledge and he didn't told anybody even after the emperor told them that the warp is bad and you shouldn't play with it. And then when the wolves attack Ahriman just takes his legion and acts against his order while Magnus just hides in his tower and complains.
>>44473884
fair point
wanted to good but just fucked up so hard it would be less embarrassing to just go chaos

FUCKING VINLAND SAGA I DIDN'T READ THIS FOR PACIFIST TRADING SPICE WOOF DIARRHEA PICK UP YOUR KNIVES AND SHANK SOMEONE YOU LITTLE SHIT
>>44475326
I wouldn't call avoiding combat a based concept.
>>44468476
I like the Ultramarines actually. Roman-styled superdudes made for empire-building (and preserving) with a Primarch that isn't A"Oh, muh grey morals!"-character, but a man with simple goals: Don't make the Imperium a hellish shithole. Let your army excell at some things (logistics, planning stuff beforehand, not fucking up every civilian), but give them enough training in other ways of battle so they don't become an army of hats. Write all this stuff down, so other loyal legions/chapters can take your understanding of (non-)battlefield tactics as a guideline and helpful insight.
But that's not nearly grimderp enough, and especially not Spiritual Liege tier of stupid, so fuck this all.
>>44479165
Russ and jaghatai
>>44481163
Girlyman was autist, not as much as Lion but he was. Cmon, forcing everyone to do the same shit he did with codex astartes? And he has stick up his ass, good thing that he is half dead is canon.

‘But your teachings…’ ‘Are yet flawed,’ said Guilliman. ‘No one, not even one such as I, can anticipate every possible outcome of battle. My words are not some holy writ that must be obeyed. There must always be room for personal initiative on the battlefield. You and I both know how one spark of heroism can turn the tide of battle. That knowledge and personal experience can only be earned in blood, and the leader in the field must always be the ultimate arbiter of what course of action should be followed.’
-Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines
Yeah, maybe it wasn't the best idea to force every legion to split up, and to split the Imperial Army into Guard and Navy, but the idea in general was, that not a single person should ever have as much power as Horus again. Nowadays, if a chapter turns traitor, it's much easier to deal with them. If an IG-regiment turns traitor, just leave them on the planet for extermination.
But sure, while it helped with internal conflicts, it weakened their overall ability to respond to bigger outside threats.
>>44481729
No. Fuck Erebus.
Okay, Jehovas Witnesses IN SPEHSS! isn't bad, and I'm sure there are interesting stories about them, but seriously: Fuck Erebus.
>>44481729
>>lead by Lex Luthor
So a butthurt bald cunt?
>>44468224
Mah tactical niggah
>>44481790
Would Lorgar have been able to kill Superman? Could Lex Luthor have successfully overthrown the Imperium?
I got a tank line out of them, so they're alright in my book.
>>44481822
Luthor could have successfully ascended.
>>44481729
>maintains its cohesiveness and discipline as a full legion even now
Lol no, Erebus and khor phaeton are at each other throats and split the legion, also many other word bearers recent both of them because the calth failure ending in many of them death even when they had the upper hand.
>>44482106
Meanwhile, the other traitor legions are mostly scattered into tiny little warbands. Compared to that, internal struggles for control are fairly minor. The Dark Council does still rule the Legion.
Just rename them the Star Wolves.
You can say the name "The Legion of the Emperor's Children" in a mixed conversation and it sounds pretty cool. "The Legion of the Space Wolves" raises eyebrows.
>>44481762
Splitting Guard and Navy was a great idea the last Imperium wants is to have rebels to get both tanks and ships at the same time.
>>44482189
Star Wolves sounds like gay furry porn
>>44482189
Eh, I think "Space Wolves" still sounds better than "Space Marines".
>>44482364
it doesn't
>>44482174
Barely and by the nature of the legion they backstab each other on a regular basis because fuck you we are word bearers.
>>44470099
Normans were vikings thou. And they wreck'd the saxons.
>>44467781
Marines Malevolent. They're like the Raptors except they can crack a joke or two when they get shit done.
>>44467781
Black Templars obviously.
>>44482934
Normans were far more French than they were Vikings. In fact, most of history after the fall of the Western Roman Empire shows that the Franks, who would eventually become the French, were pretty bloodthirsty and actually competent at warfare. Vikings on the other hand lost every major battle they participated in. They were raiders, not soldiers.
>>44463759
I reject all the wolfyness and yiffiness of the newer lore and substitute my own in universe where the wolves are vikings in space.
>ib4 I'm still a faggot for liking them.
>>44482869
Dude, that's just life as a Traitor Marine. There is not one of the fallen Legions that does not participate in backstabbing among each other. However, there are only a few that have not fragmented into countless warbands. In comparison to the rest of the traitors at large, the Word Bearers are relatively stable and organized. When the Dark Council tells an Apostle to move, he fucking does it or he gets his shit wrecked. When the Apostle tells Word Bearer #364 to jump into a pit of fire, he fucking does it or he gets his shit wrecked.
Furthermore, they all wear the red, and they all venerate Lorgar and the Four. Treachery is something they expect and encourage amongst each other, as it is the nature of Chaos.
What, did you expect them to go into the Eye and maintain feelgood happy fun times while not killing each other?
