Saving Warhammer 40k
/tg/ I think its time for us to finally make our own Warhammer 40,000

Here are some rules

>Everything BEFORE LATE 7TH EDITION, GATHERING STORM AND 8TH IS CANON HERE
>EVERYTHING AFTER LATE 7TH EDITION, GATHERING STORM AND 8TH IS NOT CANON HERE
>Try to push forward a proper way to move the timeline of 40k but keep the settings soul alive

Well /tg/? Do you think we can get shit done again one last time?

So you're a retard who wants storyshitting advancement just not GW's storyshitting advancement, and you're an AA fag. What's next will you reveal you're a coprophile?

The whole point of ignoring GW's shitty "lore" is that the timeline *shouldn't* move in any kind of official, overarching way, it should stay *as it was* and any changes should be something for you and your mates as a result of your games, your army fluff, Your Dudes. You do play games, right? You do have mates to play with, and aren't desperately trying to use the denizens of an Uzbekistani clay pottery forum to validate your shitty fanfic because nobody IRL wants anything to do with you, right?

Jog on eh.

You essentially can't. The setting is a sandbox, where you're getting blue balled for a conclusion; because it mimics irl desert people religions where they yearn for a final revelation and a release from this mortal coil.

I dont understand the idea of being full anti progression if we were to make a /tg/ 40k we cant just keep making battle after campaign after incursion in the background of the 13th black crusade for all the moaning 40k still kind of progressed this idea just makes the setting into one large shitty fanfic but with an obsession of "ITS NOT IMPORTANT GUYS ITS LIKE HOW I ACTED IN PUBLIC SCHOOL IM IN THE BACKGROUND!!!"

The father of "its not important its in the background" of 40k lore Alan Bligh was also guilty of himself stating nothing matter and then basically it ends up being some of the biggest points of the setting like Vraks or Badab.

Badab had lasting setting changing after shocks. The Red Corsairs are now the second biggest chaos warband and are in the running to challenge Abaddon

Make up your own ending, my guy. You don't need an answer to it now, piece together your favorite plot points.
You saw how shit Fantasy End Times were, you saw how Era Indomitus has been shaping. GW doesn't know what the fuck to do to close out narratives.

Retarded same fag.
40k's timeline never progressed in any meaningful, non-local way. It's why you had the Gothic War, the Badab War, and the Siege of Vraks, which had a "progression" that was an insignificant time-frame that only affected - at worst - a single sector. It's how you have the rich lore of FFG's gamelines, that have detailed histories of various areas but no actual progression.

Why? It's simple. 40k is meant to be a sandbox where you can make your own characters, groups, and locations, with everything culminating to the "1 second to midnight" event of the 13th (spooky number) Black Crusade in 40,999 (aka just before it stops being Warhammer 40,000 and the 41st millenium).

Only now because we have settingwide progression, it can no longer be about your guys, or the better smaller stories, now there has to be main characters that matter more than anyone else since they're on the galactic stage. Every Guardsman has to be Cadian, since that's the regiment on the galactic stage, the primarchs have to keep coming back because they're the only ones who truly matter, the Emperor has to be something other than a distant setting figurehead, the apocalypse can't happen or be threatened to happen, since that tanks sales, etc etc.

Well said. At the end of the day advancement fags are just sad, lazy, creatively-lacking consoomers who want to be spoonfed saturday morning cartoons by a corporation. Not even really conscious human beings, more worth of pity than scorn, and meagre amounts even of that.

Warhammer was never really that interesting of a setting before GW ruined it. I guess if you lien Inquisitor man shooting demon man for the hundredth time then good for you but I don't really see what's worth saving exactly especially when there's already hundreds of novels worth of pre-8th Warhammer "content".

Wrong. It did, it was based in BL books, and it was retconned. Only to be redone again with Gathering Storm 15 years later.
>Only now because we have settingwide progression, it can no longer be about your guys
Wrong again. The Indomitus Era is the new 13th Black Crusade. Lots of small wars but the plot is now eternally stuck at another point.

The real issue here is that you're not the oldfag grog you pretend to be. You're just another retard seething at things no longer being the same as when you were a teen in your very limited perception of those years

And that was in the background for decades before Alan Bligh fleshed out the Badab War, dumbass. All Alan Bligh did was flesh it out. Vraks, meanwhile, is just the Imperium shooting itself in the foot and fighting a pointless war that Chaos wanted the entire time. It's self-contained (aside from negatively affecting the logistics around Segmentum Obscurus in the long run).

You are a tertiary. Stay out of this hobby
