>welcome to the good guys>here's your aborted baby drone
>>735006703they're cute so it's ok
>>735006703Tyranids are the closest thing to a ‘good guy’ in the setting
>>735006727>cute
>>735006889yes!
>>735006703>be baby version of norf man>be given anti-grav, sick wings, cool bionics that probably make you as strong as an unaugmented human>given cushy jobs with comparatively little responsibility>quality of life better than average imperial citizen
They're vat grown, not natural so it's okay.
>>735006764Orks too.
>>735006703>>735006764>>735008997Non meme answer for the good guys of 40k are the Farsight Enclaves
The real redpill is that Humans, Orks, Eldar, Tau and Necrons are actually all good guys.
>>735009914>HumansI assume you mean Imperium, and yes>WorksFor sure, they just wanna get into a good scrap>EldarAlso yes>TauStarting to lose me, for all the lip service about greater good you are still talking about alien globohomos who sterilize and and brainwash you >NecronsThey are literally space zombies bro wtfI'm officially getting off the bus here
necrons are fine
>>735006703The bickering over the morality of the 40k factions is really funny to me because the main appeal is that it's just mindless violence for the fun of it, most of the factions are just watered down versions of the factions from fantasy because of this and if you asked any play 90% of them will say the picked the faction they did because they thought it looked cool
>>735006727Nurglings are cuter, chaos wins again
Khorne is the real good guy
Why would I want to play good guys? I'm a bad guy.
>>735009805>Left
>>735009914Eldar and Tau for sure
>>735009805I love any tau art that isnt the fat titcows.
>>735006764Why?
>>735010598
>>735011759Due to being an animalistic hivemind (on grander scale it’s implied that they develop some sort of primitive sentience but that’s irrelevant) the Tyranid are inherently morally neutral and exist only to feed and grow; they are a significant threat to every faction (who are all evil as per the setting) and so by killing evil they are the only faction with a net-positive moral effect on the galaxy
>>735011928This applies to the Orkz too
This is my cultist gf, say something nice about her (she's reading the thread)
>>735012473Nice tits
>>735012473Is she a cultist of Nurgle or what? Tell her to take a shower.
For me? It’s Grimaldus.
>>735013318She bathes regularly
Question for the luddites in this threadCan you creamapi Total Warhammer 3?
>>735013773Yeah
>>735013490Cute
>>735013773I'm not sure why that would make me a LudditeBut yes, although even then I would urge you to not even give CA the money of buying the base game considering how incompetent and Jewish they areand how shitty the game is
>>735010083>Starting to lose me, for all the lip service about greater good you are still talking about alien globohomos who sterilize and and brainwash youThe humans also do that, and worse. The Tau at least feed you.
>>735006764Found a jewOrks are the good guys
>>735007527Tbf now you have to give +5 invul save to a dude, who hired you.
>>735014036Believe in them, anon. If they believed in themselves they would be good.
>>735007527Anon, you're dead. You're a reanimated corpse. You have no awareness.
>>735006703They're lab grown, not born human babies
>>735014117sounds comfy
>>735010598Brimstone horrors > Nurglings
>>735012473>>735013490Man, now you're making me sentimental.
>>735014558Member macha? I member macha.
>>735014558
>>735014018>The humans also do that, and worse>Aiiiiie I have to pay taxes, praise the emperor, and not harbor xenos or chaos, this is so unfair actually
>>735014625
>>735013897Based.Time to install this 100GB+ game then. That's all I needed to know before I spend my entire sunday installing one single game.
But.. can love bloom on the battlefield?
>>735006703They are vat-grown(and soulless if checked by a psyker). Waiting 9 months is too long for the machine priests.
>>735014656>Reports varied>PluralHarlot
>>735014625>>735014749Funny thing "love can bloom" is referenced in two of the Dark Heresy RPG books (and there is reference to Boone in another one)
>>735014948>BooneThe guy from new vegas?
Vidya-only 40K fans are blessed, you have no idea how much dumb fucking shit never made it off the tabletop
>>735014782>t. NuLorelette
>>735015046Maybe (another one of Culexus OC's)https://mozai.com/BooneQuest/BooneQuest_01.html
>>735014181>>735014782>nu-loreDo people really think there's no infant mortality in 40k?
>>735015208thanks bro
>>735015215Retard. They were never recycled children.
>>735015215>Do nu-lore quinaries thinkNo
>>735015494Babies die every day, vat-grown humans is (depending on the author) mild heresy, why would they even bother? Parents could even bring their dead kids to the sisters themselves for religious clout. Hell, the kid doesn't even need to be dead. Do you even grimdark anon?
>>735015072Actual /tg/er here, I never really got into wargaming but even a casual read-through of 40k 10e made me realize it's rancid dog shit, to say nothing if the minis like spaceyiffs, grey knight baby carriers, or any number of other stupid things.
>>735016106Your personal sperg headcanon doesn't matter. Its not in the lore, you're making it up. They were never recycled human babies. They have always been a AdMech created homunculi.
>>735016352Headcanon>>>old lore>>>>literal shit>>>>>>>>nu lore
>>735016352kek, typical tourist, go watch some lore videos on youtube, you must love fags like bricky or luetin, they will explain you why femstodes are a good thing
>>735016518Keep typing yourself into a corner, clueless sperg
>>735016627Concession accepted
>>735006703As opposed to a normally aborted baby?
>>735017217Is the Imperium pro life?
>>735017260I wouldn't be surprised if abortions are heavily discouraged on a lot of planets.
>>735017260>Lack of manpower in the factoriesPro-life>Lack of corpse starch to feed the factory workersPro-abortionUpdated hourly
CHUDS FOR THE CHUD GOD
>>735017395It's more effective to turn an adult into corpse starch though. You know, like how we fatten up pigs before slaughter.
You are never the badguy when it is a fight with aliens and advancing the dominance of your own race. It doesn't mater if you grind up zenos babies for fule if it advances mankind. YOU ARE HUMAN only betraying your race is evil!
>>735011383finally someone gets it
>>735017562>long-term planningLosttech
>>735017260Do they even care about what happens in lower level hives?
>>735017615
>>735006703>good guysFuck off tourist NIGGER
>>735017743T'au rumps were evolved for human hands
>>735011383>>735017615This is the only good fanart I've seen, attractive without being shit moeblob or titcow slop.
>>735017395The Imperium's policies are many and retarded but they tend towards Utilitarianism
>>735017909I think they tend to corruption. Has there ever been a planetary noble who wasnt super uber corrupt to the max?
>>735017964That's what assassins are for
>>735017909Really depends on the world>>735017964You only hear about the absolute scumbags, the one in Cain's last stand seemed decent for example (as i just finished the audiobook)
>>735017587This but unironically
>>735017964In the Gaunt's Ghosts novels there have been multiple nobles that were genuinely honorable and many of them, even the ones that were assholes, sacrificed themselves to save countless others or to oppose Chaos. Dan Abnett, when he was younger, understood the grimdark heroism of humanity in 40k really well. A decaying empire where there's still good people.
>>735017987The assassins have better things to do, and as long as the tithe flows the and theres no chaos the inquisition isnt going to give a shit.
>>735017587cooperation is the winning strategy on the long term, a coalition of the specials capable of rational thought and coexistence will be necessary for survival against threats like the Nids and Orcs
>>735018140Dan's decent but he's also coming from superhero comics. His default is heroic self sacrifice. Itd be like if you took a author who erites sappy love novels, then toos it in warhammer, youd end up sith eldar/human romance "love on the battlefield".
>>735018329Crazy, almost like the setting allows for different takes depending on what the writer feels like shining a spotlight on
>>735018329Gaunt's Ghosts is literally just Sharpe but in 40k.
Tau and daemonettes don't do anything for me because I have a foot fetish hehe
>>735018451I wish they had a proper audiobook for salvations reach. I've heard everybook till that one and stopped because that one has a bad narrator.
>>73501730940K despite having a grimdark brand identity just doesn't get into certain very unpleasant subjects, or only hints at them. That's why the daemonculaba is so infamous
>>735018329Old Abnett is good, he didn't really understand the setting until mid 00s but that's when he managed to write his best books.
>>735018243>NidsAre they like the Vermicious Knids?
>>735018674we need more 40k body horror, everything got too sanitized and standardized for my tastes.
>>735014719You can literally get servitorized for imagined offenses to any higher up.
>>735019335that happens irl too
>>735019335Out of literal countless millions of higher ups I'm sure that's trueDon't care, still better than Chaos
>>735019572chaos is cute!
>>735019762She can 100% walk through those metal bars
>>735019967she's into it
>>735006703There are no good guys in 40k universe
>>735019967Eldar are tricksy. Moreso their goddesses.
>>735019762
>>735006703When human extinction is on the plate good and evil ceases to exist
>>735006703Those are loyal servants of the Emperor.The Emperor is a good guy, therefore cherubs are good.
>>735019967Grandma loves grandpa Nurgle
>>735020306It's not really extinction. Humanity would survive in a Chaos Ascendant Galaxy.
>>735020039It's objectively Craftworld Eldar>But some of them want to kill humans!Yeah that's a moral good in 40k.
>>735019967She likes it.
>Caliban used to have female knight before it got blew up
>Imagining stuff to be mad about
>>735019335>>735019387>>735019572Ironically being turned into a servitor as punishment is a video game invention, it's not in other sources of lore. Servitors are made out of vat-grown, soulless humans.In fact, being turned into a servitor is reserved for traitors to the Ecclesiarchy, and even then only in cases where death is considered too lenient.
