    The Orks actually do have a solid equivalent to the Dreadnought which is the Deff Dread. Main difference is that Orks can 100% volunteer for the process even if they’re still healthy.

    • @scotty_yata
      @scotty_yata 2 роки тому +49

      Another funny part about them is that the Ork's bloodlust is amped to 11 in a Deff Dread, so they have to be shut off in between battles so they don't fuck up all the Orks around them when they're bored.

    *Vulkan vs Dreadnought:*
    A figure descending through that grimy cloud struck a swift blow that arrested the dreadnoughts forward momentum and caved in its helmet.
    Barely visible in the shadows and the still falling wreckage, the figure stood before the war machine, dwarfed by it and yet somehow also greater in stature.
    Vox-horns declared the dreadnoughts anger and pain. it staggered, mortally wounded, arms flailing until a second blow swept off its leg, splitting it all the way along the piston joint. Swinging two-handed, the glint of half-light briefly limning a hammers head, the figure split apart the sarcophagus. Silence followed, disturbed only by the crackle of shorting wires and the slow plink of cooling metal. the dreadnoughts struggles ceased.

    Concerning flies, take a blue bowl (the color is for attraction, 3 times higher than yellow) fill it with water, add some soap to alter the surface tension so they drown. Even add something with a minor odor and behold the fly magnet, put these bowls next to every window and they will be exterminated!

    The Sisters of Battle have the Mortifiers, but unlike the Space Marine/Grey Knights/Custodes Dreadnoughts, the Mortifiers are reserved for Battle Sisters that have committed a most grievous sin, far more heretical than what is required to become a Repentia. They’re put inside the Mortifier to fight for the Emperor whilst they endlessly scream in pain and anguish from the Iron Maiden-like environment within the sarcophagus.

      Not really. It's about upgrading. The Dreadnaught is not doing anything to the body. There is a container in the Dreadnaught, that keeps the Space Marine alive. It's like an extension. Similar, but not really upgrading. It's like being the pilot of the Titan. AdMech, but not really.

      back when there were non-optional rules for creating your own chapter, a friend and I created "The Cauldron Born" they were obsessed with Dreadies. They fielded zero standard marines. They used scout marine assault squads for all basic troops and ran Dreadies for both Elite and Heavy choices. They'd have had Dready Captains if it was rules legal, so instead they always fielded Terminator-armored Captains. We planned on kit-bashing some airspeeders, into "Dread-speeders" same rules but piloted by a entombed marine instead of the standard pilots, so we could field Dreadies as fast attack too.

    Dreadnoughts, although a painful existence at least they find peace in slumber, they sleep so that they will not go insane inside of a metal casket attached to all the life support systems. If dreadnoughts are kept awake for a period of days or months their mental health will go on a steep decline, which is why it's important to keep the sleeping beasts asleep. Sometimes dreadnoughts wake up despite not being called on doing as such. They might wander or try and go back to sleep but that's literally all. It is considered the highest honor for a space marine to be reincarnated into a dreadnought. But the Hellbrute is a different story.

      ​@@Keram-io8hv Yeah, it's the short story where they meet Eisenhorn. Now you mention it I think he might have finished it off with his magic Carthean blade which sounds suspiciously like a demon sword, but initially they crack it open with a couple of grenades, and I think the first one doesn't connect very well.
      The Eisenhorn and Revenor books contradict each other (and general lore) quite a bit I find. Eisenhorn makes a big deal about having untouchables and how they're needed stop Psyker abilities, but Ravenor has an untouchable who wears a device that can disable his untouchable qualities. People also wear psy blockers, which are basically portable untouchables. The technology in the Ravenor books effectively makes untouchables a bit pointless.

  • @kennycai8695
    @kennycai8695 3 роки тому +3

    Just a little add on. If you read the novel "The Unforgiven", there is a part which describes how a mortally wounded Space Marine is interred into a Dreadnought. Putting a long story short, it is a fate worse than death for the interred. Implanting the neural connectors to the brain of the Space Marine can actually kill him from literal shock. This is the crucial component that allows the wounded Space Marine to operate the Dreadnought like it was his own body, and even with super-painkillers available, the process can still be fatal if there was a botch or if the Space Marine is not mentally resolute enough to endure the pain. This may explain why chapters do not inter just any run-of-the-mill Battle Brother into a Dreadnought. Typically, you have to be at least a former Veteran Sergeant to get the "honors" of being interred.

    Majorkill why orbital bombardment is not used as much as logic would suggest? Like in the siege of Vraks the enemy had no fleet, so it would be an easy picking from space.
    Of course the real answer is that we would not have cool fights otherwise, but does the lore justify this somehow?

    • @CynicalOptimist99
      @CynicalOptimist99 3 роки тому +5

      A lot of planet-side cities and fortifications will have their own void shields, so in some cases can just withstand orbital bombardment. Strategically, the Imperium likely wants to keep cities and infrastructure intact where possible, otherwise you’re left with rubble that is of no further use. Just a couple reasons I could think of there, there’s likely more

    The closest the Tau have gotten to having a Dreadnought is Commander Bravestorm. He was nearly killed while fighting Imperial forces and is now permanently hooked up to life supports within his Crisis suit.
    There's also Ob'Lotai 9-0, but he's actually an AI copied from the original mind of Farsight's old battlesuit teacher who controls a Broadside, then just downloads himself into a drone if a situation gets dicey.
