warhammer 40k

+THOUGHT FOR THE DAY+ Ruthlessness is a kindness of the wise. This world was, is, a hellhole. It's a cesspit of ruin, a place were monsters come to breed and die all under the guise of being human. I could open a window, right now, and point a person out in the crowd and guarantee you that...

You are Por’el Dal’yth Torwa and you are not entirely sure that you want the assignment you’ve been handed. You’ve spent many, many years dutifully working for the Greater Good, traveling the stars to oversee projects, to negotiate trade disputes, to handle thorny bureaucratic issues. You’re...

You are Private First Class Zoya Montagne and you think that what you are doing is probably really stupid. You have left the safety of your tank, Icebreaker on something of a fools errand, and against the recommendation of your crewmates, because you’d spotted loot. It was raining, because it...

It is the year 2005 and Humanity has spread out across the stars. Earth is but a forgotten memory the countless alien races that boost true thought little more than animals compared to the rarefied heights that humanity has ascended too. Ships the size of cities cross interstellar distances...

//Decided to revive an old concept I had on Spacebattles because I'm a madman. I may have recently mentioned wanting to start up a more fun quest idea on another recent quest I started, The Candidate and The Fragments, after what seems to have been a poor initial reception. To be honest, this...

Since Black Library has decided to reject my inane...

Our people know it as The Sundering, The Cataclysm, The Gods Wrath, and a hundred other names besides. What occurred before then is not know, but what happened after is the story of our people. Slaughter, struggle, death, and defeat. Our people were forged in that inferno. We grew strong, and...

all right, long story short, after failing to find a sector suitable for several story/quest bunnies I have i'm attempting to build a 40k sector to suit my needs. This will be a pile of planet summarys, sector powers, and notable moments in the sectors history that will hopefully make sense by...

It was madness. 10,000 years of it. Your brothers, every last one of them fell into this madness. And unfortunately, they never came out of it. Ten. Thousand. YEARS OF THIS! If they didn't wear helmets you would almost think they were daemons of Slaanesh, with how hormonal they were. It was...
