    It would be so nice if GW paid more attention to these minor races, especially since some of them are said to have their own empires of unknown size and power. It's a bit sad when the whole galaxy seems to be populated by 5-6 major races, as if it is very small and non-misteriois.

    I love Minor Xenos races and they are by far my favorite part of the setting. They're also why I prefer AoS and Fantasy, because GW will never do anything with these interesting and creative alien races, and most of their lore is a couple sentences long that typically ends with "Space Marines killed them all".

    The idea that Horus would have used xenos as minions and lackeys is a very interesting idea for the chaos-obsessed lore of 40k. It perfectly fits the paranoia and inform the origins of the rampant xenophobia within the Imperium of Man.

    • @Rodrigo_Vega
      @Rodrigo_Vega 10 місяців тому +3

      But why though. I mean, metanarratively it's because that's the spirit of 40k: "There is no peace amongst the stars" and all that. Within the fiction there's plenty of dangerous races and from what I googled there's a bunch of stories that vaguely adress the subject.
      Narratively however I feel some more substantial event would give some more emotional grounding to that aspect of the lore.
      It would be interesting for example if during the Age of Technology, a more enlighted time, humans could have had some possitive relationships with xenos. I imagine a sort of "Star Trek in Warhammer" period where humans and maybe the eldar worked together and had some sort of "Federation" thing going and fought off the Cybernetic Revolt or whathaveyou, only to be _betrayed_ by them at some point. This would set a record that "even the good ones are bad" or something like that...

      It's been stated that all of Humanity's alien allies betrayed them when the Age of Strife began, and that betrayal is a big reason Humanity was fragmented even more and nearly pushed to extinction.
      So yeah, your imagining is essentially what it was. Though humanity at the time was far beyond Star Trek or even anything from 30k/40k in terms of technology. And while the Eldar did also attack Humanity, it was their inadvertent creation of Slaanesh that REALLY screwed Humanity over rather than a direct betrayal.
      Almost every element of the Imperium's fears relates to the Age of Strife and what caused it, from anyone who accepted psykers resulting in daemon invasions to xenos betrayal to even the prior AI betrayal.

      Compared to the betrayal of Horus it still feels kind of vague. Give us some personal names, locations, battles and motives, you know? Small chapters in the Imperium vs. Chaos bit seems to get more attention and detail than their conflict with literally _every other race_

      sure, the 'rampant xenophobia' doesn't have anything to do with the overt reality that all non-Humans want to kill humans. Derp
      People like you make me worry about Humanity's future in reality. Imagine, aliens show up and you'll want to treat them like "other people" as opposed to what they will always be; Humanity's enemies. At best, they're in our region of space, so they're attempting to exploit the same resources. Chances are, they'll see us a resource. I imagine there are billions like you, who will likely prefer to worship the aliens vs. kill them to maintain human supremacy.
      the greatest modern sin is tolerance.

    @quint3ssent1a 9 місяців тому +2

    I think creepiest shits of them all were Rangdan xenos, they were such a threat to humanity that it's mentioned that Emperor had to speed up development of Astartes legions because he knew sooner or later Rangdan would show at the door. Their empire was so technically advanced, war with it almost wiped out two of early legions, and they got various other xeno mercs backing them up. Sadly, info about Rangdan themselves is kinda scarce and contradictory (or maybe GW plays "unreliable narrator" and writes from POW of someone who just conflates every enemy they fought as members of one race). Apparently some of rangdans (or their mercs, it's unknown) were taller than Astartes, somewhat "vulpine" in shape (space furries?) and could stand their ground against superhumans, while others were cowardly masterminds who controlled the army of drones. Also, name of Rangdan (they were called Cerabvores) implies that they ate people's brain... Or maybe not.

      You are half right. If he used patriarchy or matriarchy to describe their society as a whole then yes you would be right. But using the singular in reference to the fact they have an individual familial clan structure is proper usage because each clan can vary on which is in charge. Thusly using patriarch and matriarch both makes sense and is proper.

    I feel Game Works should bring back the Old Ones. Maybe by one survivor using time travel or some other means, to pull others of its kind free just before the moment they were to perish.
    They might have faced the Tyrannids before and know how to defeat them. Of course, the C'tan might make a form of return as well. The Dragon of Mars might gain freedom as well as the Mephet'ran the Deceiver from his prison with Trazyn the Infinite.

      There are other possiblities. Namely:
      1) Knowlage extinction event: Where corner stones of technology are destroyed leaving survivors to climb the technology tree again.
      2) Outer rim survivors: Due to insufficent numbers Old ones are incapable of maintaining their civilization past the space travel era.
      3) Old ones are stuck in a resource straved place and have just gained materials to reenter the galaxy.
      4) Soul of Old Ones possesing a race after a unknown space is explored.
      I think their reentry would result in resurgence of Tyranids and Necrons, the Orks and Eldar could maybe fratucre due to their origin. While Empire of Man becomes more anxious that may result in offical seperation from Terra and join the faction of Old Ones.
      This would mean that Empire of Man would be dethroned as the focal point as the emergence of this threat would signal a drastic change to the running of empire because High Lords or not is in direct danger.
      The change of capital would be not improbable as long as the Old Ones make something like astronomicon from Empire Of Man.

    A small point of interest: Jokaero Digital weapons aren't 'any size, even as small as a ring', they're always rings (but they can be any size of ring, be it for slender Aeldari hands or massive Ork fists, not that Orks are likely to appreciate digital weapons, due to their lack of dakka). They're called 'digital' because they're supposed to go on your digits. 'Implanted' digital weapons are a cleverly disguised reference to piercings.

      @@Kinglizard220 The french company Rackham was the main competitor of GW in the early 2000s. Similiar to Privateer Press today. The fantasy game "Confrontation" was their main product. Later they released a new prepainted (vomit) Sci-Fi game, called AT-43 (great name...). The white gorillas from the illustrations where one of their fractions.
      Imagine today someone chosing Warjack illustrations to show a Space Marine dreadnought. Would be the same.

    Do you suppose there's a connection between the lacrimal and the polymorphine of the Callidus Assassins? It's never explicitly stated where polymorphine comes from and the Callidus don't seem to shy away from using xenos technology. Perhaps they have some lacrimal stashed away in their temple and that's part of their extreme secrecy. Just a bit of a fan theory there.
