Given how 025 just slapped an Aquila on his chest to fit in this might just be an easy disguise for them lmao

I'm just upset we didn't actually get the Berzeker Surgeons like they've been hyping up
March 28, 2025 at 5:26 AM
I like it to an extent it just didn't feel Thousand Sons.
March 28, 2025 at 5:23 AM
True, and tithes, guns, and bodies is basically all the Imperium cares about, so as long as you provide you're good(tm)
March 28, 2025 at 4:47 AM
Yeah, that's fair. I guess they also probably pay the tithe on time and probably quite large too, so you don't get officials snooping around.

I guess they've also just gotten pretty lucky about none of the recruits not being a lil genestealy or too chaos culty either
March 28, 2025 at 4:37 AM
I think it's probably for the "alien" nature of it maybe? It gave off a weird "Wraithbone" Eldar vibe even if it came across really weird
March 28, 2025 at 4:32 AM
Definitely didn't mean it as a "this sucks" or "this is ruining my CANONNNN" or anything weird like that though, I love it when Warhammer lore is kind of dumb (affectionately)
March 28, 2025 at 4:31 AM
Oh yeah definitely, I guess I just mean more how there's so many things here that haven't triggered any big reaction from the outside like the Mutant genestealers, the various flavors of cults, van saar, etc etc

Like it's great lore and all, but I'm just kinda like "thats a lot" sometimes y'know?

The Exicindio were super Fucked up and basically lobotomized Men of Iron, there were 7 left after the Lion dropped 11 of them on a traitor forge world, supposedly they're still around in a vault somewhere in the Invincible Reason, but they're not intelligent anymore and have tiny batteries
March 28, 2025 at 4:25 AM
Most likely, as a whole though Necromunda lore is also just very strange because of all of the factions present with little external interference.

Sometimes it's hard to properly justify it as a "canon" place in 40k lol
March 28, 2025 at 4:23 AM
Yeah, I refused to believe that UR-025 was the only remaining Man of Iron, even without the Votann. The galaxy is too large and the Imperium too inept to properly find every one of them, even in their golden days.

I wouldn't even be surprised if these ones joined the Sons willingly either
March 28, 2025 at 4:21 AM
And that these were ancient tech, so it's likely these are from the DAoT.

We see a "similar" design with Castellax from 40k, which are modified/lesser designs from the era too
March 28, 2025 at 4:18 AM
Its been heavily implied that the Ironkin from Votann are Men of Iron or at least a direct predisessor, in lore theyre from a time before "myth segues into recorded history"

And in the reveal stream, they were asked if these were from Vashtorr and they had said it was before his "proper" reveal -1
March 28, 2025 at 4:16 AM
I'm just a fan of the proper introduction of the Men of Iron into the setting, it was such a cool idea and they always had a little bit of a way back in and I'm glad we started getting some more lore on them, even if it's just implied stuff
March 28, 2025 at 4:04 AM
And then the comparison of the Ironkin to the new mechs
March 28, 2025 at 3:57 AM
Got this from reddit earlier today and it immediately flipped me on them from any issues. I'm a bit sad they aren't closer to the 30k mechs, but the fact the head looks like it's a Man of Iron one (see Votann and UR-025) has me really curious on the lore for them even more now.
March 28, 2025 at 3:55 AM
tried doing M&K but it was still just a bit too awkward but swapped to Controller and it was a lot better to me imo

"I hate aliens more than I hate Chaos >:("

Watch Captain Artemis is one of the singular most hater Space Marines I've ever seen.
February 27, 2025 at 9:43 AM
Gives it a bit of an aged look for sure! Helps that the Tartaros has the same vibes as both the MK X and MK IV too
February 24, 2025 at 10:05 PM
That's a Tartaros head right? Good use of it!
February 24, 2025 at 9:29 PM
I got one and it's just so cute, definitely recommend
