So the planet Terra is Earth in 40k right? I can't be the only one who noticed this
>>46739364
Uh, yes. It's pretty obvious. Certain Daemon Princes are even historical figures like Genghis Khan and one Khorne daemon is suspected of being Hitler or Stalin.
Mars is a Forge World named fucking Mars in the SOLAR system and the third planet out of 9 (8 without Pluto).
The Imperial Palace is in the Himalayan mountains.
>>46739364
No, it's blindingly obvious. Everybody's aware.
>>46739364
First sentence of the wiki
>Terra, also called "Holy Terra" or, in the most ancient records, "Earth,"...
http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Terra
>>46739415
>>46739432
>>46739438
The plot thickens
>>46739364
>>46739415
>The Imperial Palace is in the Himalayan mountains.
for some reason, I always assumed it was in the middle east. Cradle of civilization and all that.
>>46739473
Well it wasn't built until almost M31. At that point the Emperor's been on Earth for over 30,000 years. He can build it wherever the fuck he wants.
I think they chose it due to the height/depth available. Middle East would probably be too flat and deserty.
Do you think the eldar are mostly mad at humanity not cause of all the bloodshed but because they found ancient web archives showing all the hentai and banter threads about these "elf" things that look suspiciously like eldar?
>>46739548
>smugEmperor.jpg
Keikaku doori?
>>46739530
I thought he built the palace in the Himalayan's because that's where he found the Golden Throne
>>46739364
Did you have to make a whole thread to disclose this? It wasn't exactly a secret or anything.
I'm just surprised that there was someone who DIDN'T know that Terra is one of the other names of Earth.
>>46739858
GUYS GUYS DID YOU NOTICE THE MAP OF 40K'S GALAXY IS SHAPED LIKE THE MILKY WAY
>>46739874
>>46739874
YOU LIE!!!
The Emperor of MANKIND.... Fuck man, it's our universe set in the far future
>>46739454
Seriously. The second or third hundredth time I see exactly this post, it becomes a little obvious. At least vary the wording a bit.
>>46739473
>>46739530
>>46739667
The palace is Europe
The Golden Throne is above GW's HQ's location
The Astronomicon is in the Himalayas
>>46740068
No it's not renard
>>46740110
Yes it is
Who's Renard?
>>46739364
The fact that some retards have fallen for this bait is sad. Good job OP, you managed to out the social autists.
>>46740068
You're right about the astronomicon and just in case your comment is serious I'll leave this here its from Lexicanum.
>The Imperial Palace is a vast edifice sprawling across a large part of the Asian continent
>>46739364
It's a bait thread with Dubs Guy, but why no dubs?
>>46740118
Stop being renarded, it's not said anywhere that the palace is in west pakistan
>>46739364
No?
T'au is Earth in 40000 years.
Have some more. Again from Lexicanum
>Based around the Himalazia (Himalayan) mountains, the Palace was designed by the most expert artisans of the many Masonic Guilds of Terra, but the defenses were overseen by Primarch Rogal Dorn, much to the frustration of Perturabo. Some construction of the Palace was still taking place by the end of the Great Crusade, meaning construction took at least 200 years
>>46740162
So the twist is that We are actually tau?
>>46740198
It all makes sense when you think about it.
>>46740217
The heads and eyes, the strict caste structure that separates us, the warlike culture... huh, how did I never see that.
>>46739473
And the Emperor himself was born in modern-day Turkey.
I think his starting base stemmed from the necessity of setting up shop in the most secure possible location. Earth was over-run with mad max-style techno-barbarian warlords all wildly killing each other. Genetic upgrades, psykers, cyborgs, etc. So he couldn't exactly plop down whereever he wanted; he needed to start from a place that was A) inaccessible, B) defensible, and C) not strategically important enough to be worth bothering to attack. From there, he'd have the luxury of time and safety from which to brew up his own army of transhuman supermen.
It's also possible that the Emperor was simply one more technobarbarian warlord himself: a genengineered psyker superman who took over a biolab where he was created rather than an ancient freak mutant who built the biolab himself. In that case, his rule is like Best Korea, with a fake origin story meant to justify his rule and make anyone else illegitimate regardless of his individual power.
Anyway, yeah this is a bait thread. This gets posted every month or two to see who bites.
>>46739364
>>46740240
Again he built the palace over where he discovered the golden throne
>>46740162

Holy shit, I was just kidding, T'au is really Earth?
>>46739364
>>46740435
No. Shows a lot of love for the setting, but it's a bad early 2000's shooter.
Which is a real shame, since they have fucking Brian Blessed and Tom Baker doing voice work for it.
>>46739874
In orange, where the setting says Terra is.
In red, where Earth actually is.
>>46740936
Have you considered that GW are really just bad at everything and forgot what arm we are on?
>>46741209
The galaxy rotates you anal astronaut
>>46740936
I thought we had no idea what our galaxy actually looked like, because we are in it.
>>46741278
That's like saying you don't know what shape your house is because you live in it.
>>46741340
Not really. I can go outside my house and see what it looks like. I'm pretty sure we have no way of looking at our galaxy from outside of it.
>>46740326
Allegedly.
>>46741367
>he can't tell the shape of his house by looking at the inside
Jesus Christ, anon, did you fail eighth grade math? That's the most basic of geometry.
>>46741550
The outside does not necessarily equate with the inside you know. Because if it did my house would look much different than it does. And comparing a house with a galaxy is frankly ridiculous as I can actually see everything that makes up my house. Or can I.........
>>46741550
you probably can't tell the exact shape of your house from your desk.
For starters, without physically changing place you won't be able to see all the rooms, much less the layout of the different floors. Not to mention the layers of insulation and shit.
>>46740936
the subs gravity decayed, GW isnt run by astrophysicists who understand how orbits work so they figured 40k years means the suns gunna get closer to the center.
>>46741906
suns* I guess phone posting is shitposting
>>46741808
Unlike a house, we don't have walls stopping us from seeing out into the galaxy.
>>46742065
right, there are other things stopping us from getting a perfectly accurate picture of the shape of our galaxy
>>46742065
Okay I'm fairly certain your trolling, because if you're not I'm wondering if you've ever heard of this newfangled invention. Very useful, unless you're a bird, they're called windows.
>>46739364
>Either medium-tier bait or a legit question.
Keep at it, you could have a bright future here. Alternatively, kill yourself.
>>46739364
There isn't even a slowpoke slow enough for this. Like, I could say that it was so slow that I'm going to post 3 years from now to the minute to say how slow it was, but that wouldn't even convey how slow this was. This slowpoke has been long dead, stripped of its flesh from bugs and shit, turned into oil, dug up, and is currently powering some trainer's Jeep. Jesus Christ.
>>46739364

>>46741209
The sun changes arms periodically, as do most stars. What we perceive as "arms" are actually more like pressure waves. Or like when you're on a busy highway and someone hits the brakes, causing the person behind him to hit the brakes, and so on, resulting in a wave that propagates backward even though any given car is only in it briefly.
>>46740152
>renarded
That's some good shit right there
>>46739667
Golden Throne was built around the time of Horus Heresy, he didn't "find" it.
>>46739364
Terra is literally the latin name for Earth, dummy. It is commonly used in fantasy/sci fi for earth-related things. So yes, everyone but you noticed.
Although to be honest I suspect this is just a shitpost and OP knows this. Consider your bait taken.
>>46739415
Mars is the 4th planet unless Mercury or Venus fucking exploded at some point in 40k
>>46744838
>calling Holy Terra a mere "planet"
>>46739364
>So the planet Terra is Earth in 40k right? I can't be the only one who noticed this
How long did it take you to "notice" this? Was it around the same timeframe as "noticing" that you're supposed to drink with the concave part of the cup facing up?
>>46744690
It was built around an ancient piece of xeno-tech he found, didn't fully understand but still thought it would be a good idea to stick his dick into.
If the Emperor of Mankind founded the Imperium of Man, why didn't he call it Emperium of Mankind? Or why didn't he rename himself to Imperor of Man?
>>46742780Real talk doe, did anyone notice that /k/ manages to fuck up the spelling of the Emperor in ways you can't believe in every damn 40k thread there? Dat superior Murrican edumacation
>>46740187
>>46740068
Actually both have been stated in official sources, so in a way you are both right.
Although I prefer to think of it as both of you being wrong.
As so often you can thank Abnett for this inconsistency.
THE IMPERIUM OF MANKIND IS MADE UP OFHUMANS
