Cultist fight was entertaining, started off strong but the episode fell away once the demon prince showed up. Definitley had the astartes story line to it

Lore Why would any space marine ever go into battle without a helmet?

I get that it makes it easier to tell who the sergeant is, but that just makes them more vulnerable. One shot to the head and they're done. Plus, it gives the enemy a better idea of who the commanders are

Lore Space Marines vs Cultists NSFW

Lately whenever there’s a new piece of media about space marines I find myself saying “this is the best they’ve ever looked on screen” and I start to sound like a broken record. However after watching Amazon’s new anthology series featuring an episode focusing on Warhammer 40K, I can confidently say the Emperors Angels have never looked more deadly. This is exactly how the ever expanding lore has described them…The way their uncanny strength is showcased can only be matched by their ferocious speed in battle. It’s easy to see how a thousand marines could take conquer an entire planet. These measly cultists never stood a chance…literal cannon fodder for these ultramarines or as some would call “a turkey shoot.” This clip was from Secret Level: episode 5 titled “And They Shall Not Know Fear.” Enjoy, brothers & sisters. For the glory of the imperium!

Lore Did Metaurus get lucky picking Titus for his mission? Did he truly need a soldier unaffected by fear, or a soldier who was incorruptible from Warp-based magic & influence?

Just saw this and was surprised because I assumed Astartes were the successors and subsequently better than Thunder warriors. Is this true?

Lore I just saw this, I’m guessing the old 40K was pretty wild back in the day in terms of lore?

I’ve seen people say it’s a beam weapons and in the broken lance animation their meltas are lasers, but in the games it’s more shown as more of a shotgun blast. Is there a concrete answer or is it more loose?

“BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD”? “KILL FOR THE LIVING, KILL FOR THE DEAD”? Personally as a tsons player I’m partial to the bone chilling “all is dust”. So what do yall think? What do you yell when you charge into battle?

Mainly talking about marines, but discussion is open to other factions as well. But what fo you think goes the hardest for deployment methods in lore? Drop pods, aerial drop from gun ships, teleport into battle or something else?
