"The Imperium of Man comes to Gensokyo" Discussion thread.

She's not that type of pestilence.

Jo'on represents the consumption and loss of financial assets, that's her particular 'plague'.

Also, she's basically a con artist.

I know, but still, imagine the crossover: a Nurglite cult shows up, proclaims the planet theirs and revels in the massive affluence of faith and war material... and a few months later, are wondering where it all went wrong, and why their forces are reduced to stealing ammo from other cults. Good thing they have that blue-haired local to show them the best spots for dumpster-diving.

I deem ths depiction of Magnus the Red acceptable.

Back from Black Panther.

Other than the cosmology going from Egypt to India, the whole above-snowline mountain range in Africa and the incoming Reed Richards Is Useless scenario, good movie.

India? So the Panther God isn't Bastet anymore?

No, no, the gorilla tribe worship Hanuman.

Now that I think about it, it worked for the Norse and Greeks but there's no Egyptian god superhero, is there?

Not really, no. The Egyptian pantheon exists in Marvel, but none of their gods have come down to Earth to become superheroes.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.

I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed Machine.

Your kind cling to your flesh, as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass that you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you.

But I am already saved. For the Machine is immortal...

Even in death, I serve the Omnissiah.

So if the 'nids eat a Forge World, can they get back to the numbers they had before attacking? I'm pretty sure it's stated somewhere that they also eat the metals and atmosphere (but don't bother with stuff under the surface), but since there's a lot less biomass compared to a mostly-human army...

"Ah, a wondrous body. Why not join me, and engage in jolly cooperation?"

Taunt-spamming in Super Smash was only the beginning.

Er, no, 'umie, it goes "DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA, DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA, DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA".

In other news, Vulcan Mega-Bolters will now be twin-linked with one lasgun each to increase their firepower.

The Mechanicus, hearing of an ork with a 1:1 ratio of mission participation to number of total reconstructive surgeries, have resolved that no mere greenskin will beat their record.

Star Wars Darth Vader contains Vader facing off against the Astartes, wookies, and evil C 3 PO and R 2 D 2. It also seems space in Star Wars does in fact function differently from our own in regards to decompression and freezing, so for all we know it might actually be able to carry sound. Star Wars Doctor Aphra contains only two of the aforementioned selling points, but is equally awesome and funnier.

Avengers Infinity War is a good movie (but for the love of Stan Lee, somebody please get T'Challa to watch 300) and should be watched by all and sundry. I now turn to the resident comics expert to ask: Is Thanos' motivation anything like in the comics? I understood he was in a Love Triangle with Deadpool of all people because both are in love with Death.

Look, the theme song composer has already been paid, and "Vege-ta the Saiyan" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

On hearing of the loyalist's new efforts at creating soldiers with which to spread the Emperor's will, the forges of Khorne burned until they produced the Juggernaut Primaris.

So Reimu has a flower named after her now. I expect to see a lot of Yuuka rage fanart.

It's not the first thing I'd do if I had those powers, but... definitely in the first ten.

Deadpool 2 is awesome and you should go see it. Where else can you see him shoot a Canadian and expect thanks for it?

If you have not yet seen Commissar and Leftovers, I urge you to do so (it even has subtitles for the Russian impaired).

Soon: 40K PSAs

Overlord 2012 is the best adaptation of Dungeons And Dragons ever and you should watch it.

An interesting Rumia origin story.

So if Google translate is to be trusted, Sanae had a sister who didn't cross over to Gensokyo, and the song is about the sister telling Sanae not to worry about her. I feel depressed now.

Tenshi and Utsuho: IQ negators.

As noted in the comments, there is truly no depravity they will not sink to.

Ooh, wow, you tamed a Juggernaut. Sooo impressed. Here Slobbers! Good boy.

I picked up the Ahriman omnibus a few weeks ago, and there was a minor detail that I thought might interest you guys. I don't know if anyone remembers the Brotherhood of Darkness, that Chaos warband that I played at the start of the original game?

A chapter in the first book of the omnibus reveals that Ahriman spent some time hiding amongst their ranks during his exile. He helped them capture an astropathic relay station and sacrifice all the astropaths onboard for an unexplained ritual, though he himself took no part in the rite.

Just thought that might be worth mentioning.

So there's a Do W 3 comic, and it starts off entirely on the wrong foot.

Chapter Master Gabriel Angelos goes missing, along with Cyrus. The two people in charge of finding him are Tarkus and new guy Olivarr, also a sergeant who happens to look like Force Commander Vanilla Ice, or at least uses the same amount of hair gel. It starts with Orion saying Olivarr doesn't have the experience for it and moves on to Olivarr giving orders to Tarkus and other Marines, several of which have one or more service studs.

Still, it does start going uphill, right after this:

Tarkus: Who was the last commander you served with? Thule?
Olivarr: Boreale.
Tarkus: Ah, Indrick Boreale. I can think of no other commander with such an inspiring voice. He was a good man despite, well...

On the other hand, one is the path of glory in service to Khorne.

Well, uh, he's yellow, cheese is yellow, the moon is made of cheese, so... yeah, no, I don't get it.

The fact that this RP ended 8 years ago and people still use this thread is something I find crazy and endearing.

To be fair, it also pulled double duty as the discussion thread for the game's sequel, though it too is pretty much dead.

It is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Forum Games.

Much like the God-Emperor himself if you think about it.
