An image of a Dark Angels legion Space Marine in black power armour. A black and white photograph of a fallen tree in Burnham, cracked and crumbling on the ground.

Due to popular demand, here's every Space Marine legion from Warhammer 40,000 as a document in our collection.

I: Dark Angels

Obviously, they're this photograph of a tree in Burnham. Why this photograph?

The tree has Fallen.

This is the company the UK government has embedded in the nation’s services. Seriously, fuck everyone who is excusing this.

I saw one recently with a custom QUB3 (then some other letters) license plate!

I can remember the specific layout of the _Computer Desk_ in the living room next to a bookshelf, and that the joystick for flight sims squashed in behind the monitor.

No, it is the children who are wrong This week: Keir Starmer has decided that he blames the voters. Also: some golden age anti-car propaganda; and some new maps of British living standards.

"And yet Starmer’s statement made me more likely to vote for them. Because I have friends who’ve joined the Greens, and they are neither frenzied sectarians nor simply stupid."

"We need to make government bigger, actually" is something we should be doing constant propaganda for and why I'm a little distrustful of pop leftism.

I think they should commit to defending China from Taiwan. Really confuse everyone.

I said I was considering a protest vote for the Greens (which I acknowledge makes no sense in a local election) and his response was "yeah, but the Greens don't know what a woman is" 🙄

I would be fine with a search engine that actually 1) finds the external sources I'm looking for 2) finds things that are specific to my search, even if I'm kinda vague.

Want to leave a legacy? A generation who named their children in your honour sounds pretty good

People barely manage to get out from under being viral on Tumblr, especially if you collect some weird haters!

the voice cast seems to be designed to create the most irritating trivia quiz questions, like "What links HBomberguy, Jhonen Vasquez, and David Harbour?"

this is all in the power armour - though it would presumably be like huel, not special big boy food, because RT-era Marines aren't that different to the rest of humanity, just hopped up on combat drugs.

the *peak* metabolism is higher for Primaris than Firstborn, they have a whole organ specifically just for that, called the Furnace.

You rang a bell in my head, and YES this is the way it works in Rogue Trader - there's a food and drug injector, with a mixing chamber and a top-up point on the torso.

So I figure it's going to be "high, EXCEPT this organ or this hormonal modification allows them to subsist on dense fats for longer or they're able to extract more calories than normal human digestion" etc

Space Wolves eat the closest to "normal" of what's been described, and in vast amounts. Otherwise, it seems to be some kind of nutrient porridge with what for a baseline human would be toxic amounts of iron and other metals, because that gets converted into bone-reinforcement.

I hate to tell you, they're probably 23. Our increasing age plus their skincare regimes creates baffling outcomes.

Yeah, I can see it in smaller/out of the way indie shops or toy shops, with an old dusty SC on the shelf, and a pile of that WD issue with the free Necron, but unlikely otherwise.

Now I want to know when was Space Crusade out of production/discontinued/off shelves, because I wonder if there was an overlap when you could buy a plastic Chaos Android off one shelf and a metal Necron Warrior off another...

It's rare you truly can see the sliding-doors moment in your life, but at 11 years old I had enough money for one book at a school book fair, and chose Northern Lights over HP&tPS. I ended up reading Blake, Milton, and Dante as a result!

I think to capture the vibe you need to hear the name in the accent. "Baaaarnsleyyy".

Impressively, because it's solid white and black, it kind of looks like the whitewash you put on windows for a closed business?
