Will there ever be a good Chaos Space Marine game?
>>339520920
Doubt it. I doubt we will ever get an Imperial guard game.
>>339520920
Will there ever be a chaos space marine game? So much potential for being a roving Dick head
>>339520920
Space Marine's multiplayer got us close. DoW 3 better have improved army customization.
So are all these space Marines on the same side?
>>339521774
Fuck off back to sucking your dead emperor's cock, faggot.
>>339521901
Nope, a solid half went traitor and fights for Chaos. A good analogy would be Space Marines are angels and Chaos Space Marines are the demons, the fallen angels.
Then there's Horus being Lucifer/Cain while Sanguinius being Jesus/Abel but that's deep 40k lore shit.
>>339521901
Regular Space Marines are on the same side for the most part, but some of the chapters have grudges against others. Chaos Space Marines are not on the same side of Space Marines in any way. Read up on the Horus Heresy.
I'd rather be a random traitor guardsman who
wakes up one morning to find the planet is being flesh-dissolving-virus bombed by his own side for a laugh.
What I hate the most is that there is no warhammer game where all four chaos gods are fully realized and play a large role in the overall gameplay.
The closest I've seen this accomplished is Chaos in the Old World and that is a boardgame.
>>339522306
I'm just a noob when it comes to warhammer. Just asking is all.
>>339522254
thats cool. I always likes the art of how they have skulls on their armor
>>339521093
Good God Emperor! Please! I want to be a fucking normal person fighting supersoldiers, aliens and demons. Best posible point of view in W40k.
>>339522582
The last time all Four fought together and actively fight the Imperium was to stop the Emperor. They don't give a fuck about the material world now. They occasionally bless their mortal champions like Abaddon to invade the materium but they're mostly concerned about fighting each other.
>>339522306
Now are many of the chaos chapters on the same side? I think they would fuck eachother up just as quickly as the imperials solely based on whatever chaos god they primarily worship.
>>339520920
It already exists
>>339523072
Chaos always has infighting. I forget which groups in particular don't like each other. I'm pretty sure Fallen Angels hate all Chaos and Imperial Space Marines.

>>339521901
You've got Space Marines. They shoot everything that is not the Imperium of Man. Sometimes they also shoot Imperial forces, for various reasons.
Then you've got Chaos Space Marines. Some are remnants of the original Legions, when half of them betrayed the Emperor in the Horus Heresy. Some come from modern Chapters who turned against the Imperium because of different reasons. They shoot literally everyone.
ABD wrote this nice piece of fluff for them in general.And without any daddy issues and only modest Chaos cocksucking, so it's great

Well for normal space marines they don't, they just clone more with geneseed. Chaos space marines rely for the most part on traitor marines and whatever terrible shit Fabius Bile can create with stolen geneseed

Yea and I'm saying that would be awesome to actually see implemented. Want to get the blessings of Khorne? Gotta go against Slaanesh. Want to bro it up with Tzeench? Now Nurgle hates you.
And at the same time you have the Empire and its inquisition out to murder you at any chance they get.
>>339523596
To create a Space Marine:
>Go to a Feral World/City World/Death World
>Take the toughest, meanest, deadliest warrior/survivor below 15
>Make them do insane tests where the survival rate is 10/100
>Implant in those that survive organs that turn them into supersoldiers, a good half dies in the process
>The survivors are inducted in the scouts regiment (think Master Chief/Doomguy power level) and are sent in battle
>Survive long enough to impress you r superiors and you'll earn your Power Armor.
All this to create immortal supersoldiers with centuries of experience each. The older they are, the longer they survive the constant warfare, thus the stronger they are. Pic related is at least 1300 years old and is the deadliest Space Marine alive.
>>339524272
so do they grow old and die or have families or lovers seems lonely
>>339523771 see >>339524272
He's the oldest Space Marine without Warp time travel/dreadnought shenanigans. So old no non Dreadnought marine alive remembers a time he's not in charge. So old even Logan "chop an Inquisitor for fun" Grimnar defers to his leadership.
Best you're going to get is a mobile game based on Black Crusade. That or there's the current mobile game about Horus Heresy that is dogshit.
>>339524648
Nope, they've been brainwashed to only want to fight, kill and feast (the latter especially for the Space Wolves). Their family is the Chapter and their love is brotherly. And their dick probably doesn't work with all the mutations anyway.
>Do they grow old and die
No Space Marine die of old age, they just get stronger/more skilled with time until they inevitably die in battle.
>>339524272
>>The survivors are inducted in the scouts regiment (think Master Chief/Doomguy power level)
Yeah, no.
Scout armour isn't even powered. It's pretty much just carapace.

>>339525743
What
Why not just let the Emperor die?
From what I gather, he's going to reincarnate as a god anyways so why keep the dude on a (slowly failing) life support?
Where are the women in all of this or normal humans? What are they doing?
>>339525880
Ah, the small fries are here. Go get outsmarted by okrs somewhere else.
>>339521093
Thank god for that.
>>339525904
He's the beacon on which they navigate, the astronomicococn or something?
>>339525904
Because most people don't exactly know it.
Oh yeah, and him being on the Golden Throne is the thing that's keeping that breach that Magnus caused from resulting in Holy Terra being overrun by a shitting fuckton of daemons.
>>339525904
Because all the ships in the Empire require him keeping them safe from the warp. They wouldn't be able to travel using the warp and the Empire would crumble in days if he died and stopped projecting the Astronomican
>>339525906
>nipples
Reported
>>339525904
Because he is a shining beacon in the warp and is the only thing that allows for warp travel without your ship getting mercilessly slaughtered by demons or you getting completely lost. Without the emperor corpse their is no warp travel.
>>339526167
>>339526108
>>339526017
Why don't they then create a new beacon with their tech then?
>>339525927
Fighting on the front lines, but GW doesn't make lady guardsman because they're lazy Jews.
>>339525904
this >>339526017 and >>339526108
And it's not even sure he'll reincarnate. The chaos of a split second of the Emperor dying is not worth a maybe scenario where he might become a benevolent Chaos god.
Him off the Throne means to intergalactic travel, no intergalactic communication, a lot of daemons come spilling on Terra (more than the current rate) and utter chaos all around, even for a split second.
>>339526384
>creating 'new' tech
>in WH40K
Is really hope your not suggesting this heretic
>>339525904
It is a good idea, if you don't mind millions and millions of deamouns pouring to terra the instant emperor dies
>>339522681
An IG game only works as an rts or RTT I think. Marine or Eldar etc. games could be TPS or FPS as well.
>>339526384
Do you realize how powerful the fucking emperor is? Thousands of psykers are even sacrificed every day to fuel it. It's impossible to recreate with technology, it's a psychic field.
>>339525904
Wonder what favor the Dark Eldar will call in as part of the golden throne bargain.
>>339526546
No because he looks like shit now. Someone post the pic
>>339526384
They don't have "the tech" to "make" a new astronomicon
>>339526668
why not
Didn't Empire encounter a world of humans that had some really sick technologies but brute forced/exterminatus'd them asap?
>Wanting more games starring space marines, evil or otherwise
neck urself, m8
>>339526643
Exactly. He's a fucking skeleton and he's still possibly the strongest being in creation. Emperor Prime is one of the most powerful beings in popular fiction
>>339526108
>>339526224
>>339526167
If he's going to die soon anyways, wouldn't it make sense to bolster your defenses as much as you could, then off him and hope he reincarnates? If he did reincarnate as a god then warp travel should become possible again right?
They're just delaying the inevitable by keeping him alive. He's going to have to keel over eventually.
>>339526756
Long story short:
The imperium already suffered a prior dark age that took place after their robots/computers or whatever went Skynet on them and they barely survived. A combination of long-term fear of technology progression, suspicion, and tech-hording by high-level engineer guys who control the Imperium's technologies prevent technology from moving forward.
I think the ships the imperium use don't even have AI. They have a quasi-ai using human corpses or something.
Someone else can probably explain better than I.
>>339526950
>implying 40K ever progresses
>>339526756
Religion says no, basically. And zealous fucknuts in Warhammer are supremely powerful and will wreck your shit if you so much as think of researching any technology.
>>339526756
Because it's warp fuckery and the only person strong enough to power the astronomicon besides the emperor is magnus, and he's not an option for obvious reasons
>>339526614
Oh well then.
The Imperial will make an official decree that they will be needing just a few hundred more fit and able psykers to help power the Astronomicon, saying that it will further serve Man.
However behind closed doors those extra few fit and able psykers may find themselves shipped to Commoragh.
>>339526769
The Inetrrex. It's basically a more advanced/successful Star Trek system but Horus (who was second in command at the time) got tricked by a Chaos agent into nuking them sky high. The tragedy here is that the Interex studies Chaos like a science and thus has an edge over it.
>>339526950
The second he dies the entire Imperium is fucked for good. There's not enough time for him to reincarnate. The Daemons would destroy Terra (Earth) instantly.
>>339526950
As I said, most people don't know that.
And even if they did, that's one hell of a gamble to make. If he reincarnates, how long will that take. If he doesn't, what the fuck are they going to do now?
Yes, it might result in a vast improvement over the current status que but it can also result in things becoming a lot fucking worse.
>>339527179
Oh I thought that took place AFTER the horus heresy.
Any idea what the Eldar think of the Emperor and did he ever have direct dealings with them?
>>339527226
Why does earth even matter? Just travel to another planet
>>339527226
So basically the only way the Imperium can keep itself from getting completely fucked by Chaos is to hope they can somehow fix whatever's wrong with the golden throne?
>>339527429
>what the Eldar think of the Emperor
It differs, some thinks he's a corpse, others believe once dead he'll become a fifth, more terrible Chaos god. They know all about making Chaos gods so they may have a point.
>Emperor and did he ever have direct dealings with them?
His great dream is to conquer and improve the Eldar's webway system so mankind doesn't have to go through hell whenever they go to another planet. It would've succeeded, but the Heresy happened.
>>339527559
As mentioned>>339526614
Latest news on that was that the caretakers of the Golden Throne, operating under the mantra of 'desperate times calls for desperate measures' travelled to Commoragh, the home of the delightful Dark Eldars where 'a dark bargain' was struck.
>>339527520
Because if terra falls, the whole imperium is fucked
>>339527520
>Wanting a second Eye of Terror in the middle of you empire
>>339526821
This push for fucking skitarii is getting old. They're nobodies that nobody cares about. Orks Eldars Marines are who you're going to see in every game. The others will get rotated through for the most.
>>339527559
Yes. And they have already taken some extremely questionable steps into making that happen.
>>339527429
>>339527758
The Emperor was a bro with Eldrad for awhile, but they departed on bad terms. Not as enemies, but no longer as friends. I believe it was (though I cannot remember the source) was that the Emperor went
>Chaos is really bad guys, you guys are faggots for making another God, but you're decent aliens, humanity will rule the galaxy then the universe, help us defeat Chaos and you can have a place in my Imperium as vassals
And the Eldar spat in his face over this because they thought they could fix everything.
>>339527831
>Nobody cares about Admech

>>339527226
I know this is never gonna happen, due to WH40k being a story that never really progresses(Or just barely progresses), but if the Emperor ever canonically dies, I wonder if it'll really be as drastic as everyone thinks it'll be?
Okay, so Emperor's a confirmed perpetual, right? But what makes everyone thinks he's just like other perpetuals? Maybe when Emperor dies, he'll just be able to come back to life instantly. I mean, he's capable of god-like feats already(But make sure not to call him a God for some raisin?), would it be that much of a stretch?
Especially considering that he most likely KNOWS about the situation with the throne he's sitting on.
>>339528015
Is admech science even capable of machine code?
>>339528015
You know what the admech are to most fans? The dudes that make the tanks that the real factions ride in. That's likely what they're going to stay.
>>339528126
how old is the warhammer 40k story
>>339528148
It's what they use to speak to eachother.
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Lingua-technis
>>339520920
1st half of the game has you gleefully slaughtering everything for the dark gods. With daemons and firepower at your side you feel untoppable.
2nd half has you fighting for your life and soul as the Shadow in the Warp falls over your daemon army and you find yourself against millions of Tyranids.
>>339528126
He's more powerful than any God in 40k fiction, I think.
He's also not a confirmed perpetual being. There are a few theories and prophecies regarding his return, but they would either entail him not being the same thing, or being reborn Hindu style and having to grow up again, which is way more time than any faction of the Imperium can hold out.
>>339528209
Oh, is that why GW gave them an entire line of models and a codex of their own? (There's also a separate codex for the Cult Mechanicus)
>>339527036
The main problem with is that many advanced tecnologies has been lost during the Age of Strife and the Horus Heresy, is like when in post-apocaliptic movies human factions can make weapons, but the pre-war stuff will always be far better than anything they can make because the knowledge to make that is lost
Also stuff the Golden Throne and Astronomicon are masterpieces made by the most intelligent not-God in the galaxy, so that is not going to be replaced anytime soon
>>339528530
And the Tech Cult on Mars hoards any and all new tech anyone brings back and won't use it or even research new shit.
>>339528506
"to most fans"
>>339528234
What do you consider the story? It's been around for 30 years as a setting, but the coherent story has been around for less than that. Even then it isn't really a story, just loads of writers making their own marks like comic books do.
>>339528379
>>339528126
Read up on the Inquisition. There are several factions that believe that the key to solving the problem is killing the Emperor completely so he returns. As in, he didn't die completely which is why he hasn't returned.
While others think the solution is to clone him. Or to make another one. Each faction uses their own means to achieve this and so they constantly war against each other.
>>339528826
Seeing as the model range has only been out for a year and they have two armies and an entire Forge World range AND are involved in the up coming IA14 book, they're stupidly popular.
>>339528826
There must have been a significant push for it, though. There are a lot of factions in 40k that could potentially be made into a new playable faction, but they chose the Admech for a reason, and that reason is because fans wanted it.
>>339528878
Now that I think about it, if Emps was created from the sacrificial merging of a fuck-ton of shamans, then surely creating more like him would just involve sacrificial merging of souls of more psykers, since that's what the shamans were. It's not like psykers are in short demand, at any rate.
I've never even played Warhammer but I know a lot of the lore because of reading the entire tvtropes page out of boredom and watching that autistic "What if the Emperor had a TTS Device" YT series
>>339529212
Because the Shamans were vastly superior to the psykers around now. It's implied the last Shaman was Malcador. Though the Avatar of Slaanesh could be one, at least how it's implied.
As it is, nobody knows how to do it. There aren't any more Shamans to do it.
However, the Golden Throne could be viewed as doing the same thing the thousands of Shamans did.. That is combining thousands of psykers every day into Emperor. You could almost explain the reason the Golden Throne is breaking is because the Emperor is so powerful now it cannot contain him... Almost as if GW is planning something....

that's because it would be ridiculously unwieldy in videogaming terms (4 seperate branches) and also un-lore-friendly; there are almost no situations where all 4 chaos powers bother going up against one another.
to realise your ambitions it would have to be a game with only chaosites. Not really doable
>>339530050

>>339529212
>>339529534
It was a time when the warped wasn't fucked and the shamans could easily reincarnate.
>>339530653

I'm reading a collection of short stories right now involving the Night Lords and at first I thought they were dark and edgy just for the sake but then you get the background on how they are all being driven slowly insane by nightmares due to the geneseed. Most are driven by a sense of righteousness that they cannot help from being warped. Anyways, Sevatar just created a new Kyroptera which included a Raven Guard I think. What's the quick and dirty on that guy?
Bandai Namco have announced an upcoming Action RPG where you play as a Slaanesh Noise Marine who rock n' rolls and rapes his way across the galaxy
