Best thing GW ever came up with

Not with that stupid top knot.

>Why did ynnead pick her between all eldar?

Because she's experienced every path and strata of Eldar society, and thus is the best suited to act as a single unifying figure for the Craftworlders and Commorites to unite behind.

Because those kind of characters are always beloved.

And is that so special or was she picked among a bunch of eldar who experienced all strata and stuff?

Wow. Injecting partisan politics into unrelated conversation. You must be really fun at a party.

>to unite behind.
I saw what you did there.

She was the only on of those Eldar who had a near-death experience at the time Ynnead was born, or so I'm told

Well she's pretty pathetic and useless, so I don't see why Roboute would even want her.

>You must be really fun at a party.
The party is everything, user.

see:

Their new 'god' is so weak that its Champion, Incarnate and Speaker are all defeated in seconds by Ahriman, a dude who lost to Arjac in one move.

If that's the power they're offering, Guilliman doesn't need it, it'd net make him weaker.

The new Eldar """lore""" is that Eldar and WFB Elves are destined to be Human sidekicks with no fucking self awareness or pride in themselves.

>all this lies

I bet you worship slaanesh too. Yvraine is the future queen of the Imperium, cooperation (read: mon-keigh taking the bullets for us) is essential for the future revival of the Eldar empire

How long until Lion wakes up and decks this faggot?

this, fucking atrocity.

Who is fucking Sigmar to greats like Aenarion or Caledor? Who is Sigmar to someone like Mazdamundi or Lord Croak? Just some schmuck with a hammer. His relevance to the greater picture was marginal.

Nu-GW really knows how to fuck their own universes up good.

...

Pretty much. Its even worse than the Orks who just get killed , we get all dignity stripped away and reduced to happy little cucks and bitches for the Imperium.

Tell that to gw who decided to make yet another universe where all elves and dwarves are worth is making the human heroes shine

Ironically I used to love Tallarn/Biel-tan being a teamup in lore because it showed more complexity to the imperium's frontier politics. Now I'm ambivalent because lol, of course they're going to turn this from a 10.000 years long gotterdamerung to heroic Tolkien shit in space.

Thank you

>Implying Lion wouldn't execute his own sons for dying to help the Eldar
Lion punched off a Dark Angel's head for disagreeing with him.

Lion would see the wisdom in Guilliman's greatness, understand his masterful plan to restore the Imperium, and swear loyalty eternal to his new queen.

Better be on Emperor's good side when he gets up from his throne.

If the emperor was such a good psyker as imperial propaganda claims he is, he would have foreseen the Horus Heresy (as just about every goddamn Eldar seer had already foreseen) and he'd have realized fucking with the webway when the eldar are telling you it will only end in tears is a terrible fucking idea.

The more they added shit about the emperor, the more he comes off as some parody of plucky human pulp scifi heroes who win everything due to their pure heart and ability to magically understand shit they have no clue about due to human ingenuity.

>the emperor
>win

can't hear you over pic related

>he would have foreseen the Horus Heresy
Yeah, because elfs have totally foreseen fucking a chaos god into existence. If they were able to foresee the whole picture, they would've known that the Emps was not at fault for Heresy. Also the webway project was rad as fuck idea.

And my favorite:
>be eldar

So much for smartest race in the galaxy.

>implying space elfs are the hottest shit in the galaxy just because they are elfs

Fucking no.

>it's a chaoscuck episode

Wow there is so much wrong here.

Doesn't matter that the Emps wasn't 'at fault', fact remains that he didn't forsee it all going to shit the way practically every Eldar Farseer did, calling into question any degree of prophetic powers he might possess.

Then as for the 'murderclowns' that was for the fucking Beast War you idiot, way after the Horus Heresy.

For the Heresy Eldrad tried to make contact with Fulgrim and discuss with him in a rational manner what was happening.

Also we were already told by Lhareiel that Eldrad couldn't warn the Emperor cause the Emperor refused to listen and sent him away.

Also how would the Eldar succeed in killing Kor Phaeron and Erebus? In 30k Xenos lose all battles they ever are in terribely, they'd have just as much success in killing those two.

Also the Eldar can't just pick which Primarchs to meet. Even Fulgrim and Eldrad's meeting occured because of a confluence of circumstances, not because Eldrad can just zoom to every Primarch he wants.

Also seriously you awnk the Emperor so hard its like you legit want to suck his dick. If your idea of 'good writing' is a blatant mary sue then thank fuckign goodness GW made the Emperor make so many idiotic mistakes and have so many limitations and you weren't in charge of it.

The Emperorfags are among the worst in the fandom. The moment a chaosfag will imply 'Chaos has already won' (which is also annoying) they'll start screeching 'Emperor won everything, everything is Emperor's plan, Emperor could kill Chaos Gods' and then insist that its totally okay if the Emperor has already won, jsut nobody else.

Honestly ever since the BL Horus Heresy books began it feels like the lore is degenerating into a series of Mary Sue wank-offs.

So Russians are the eternal worst enemies of the "American Race"?
I though you liberals were supposed to be non-racist.

She and Celestine will have to fight over who gets to be Guilimans first wife all Shaltear and Albedo style

Did they have sex?

Anyway I'm getting the feeling Guilliman is weak towards women. Must have something to do with being the only primarch growing up with a mom.

>calling into question any degree of prophetic powers he might possess.
He never claimed to be a prophet powerhouse.
>fucking Beast War
Ok, my fault.
>refused to listen and sent him away.
Should've continued his attempts. That was pretty fucking important for everyone.
>how would the Eldar succeed in killing Kor Phaeron and Erebus?
Murderclowns? They've managed to fuck up some custodes on Terra. A half-assed space marine and a chaplain shouldn't be that hard to take out.
>can't just pick which Primarchs to meet.
Cabal was capable of it, mightiest psykers of the eldar should be able to at least make a call through astropats.
>blatant mary sue

Not that guy, but who exactly are the russians in that analogy? I'd like a quick rundown.

They probably did

Nice fanfiction.

Monkeigh. And Putin=Guilliman, I guess.

That's one wierd fucking analogy

Yeah, the writing is pretty bad.

>Honestly ever since the BL Horus Heresy books began it feels like the lore is degenerating into a series of Mary Sue wank-offs.

Generally true ever since the beginning of 5th Edition, slowly and progressively becoming more obvious over time. That and the habit of reconning/portraying things against their own lore in order to better portray the biased (or necessary) view of a new concept.

The nu-Imperium under Guilliman seems to be quite ok with the Aeldari.

What is she that any other Eldar isn't?

>Honestly ever since the BL Horus Heresy books began it feels like the lore is degenerating into a series of Mary Sue wank-offs.

It's because the background lore for HH was always supposed to be more mythical. Emperor and Primarchs were much better as mythical Bigger Than Life heroes shedding manly tears and fighting for the fate of the galaxy and humankind. They were better as ideal people you supposed to aspire to be. Like Fingolfin from Silmarilion or Jesus. And then came HH writers and made them actual characters, which turned them into autists and manchildren, because it takes a really good fucking writer to do a Bigger Than Life character properly. And HH writers aren't fucking good at all, that's for sure.

>she's experienced every path and strata of Eldar society
She's been a Commoragh slave?

>tfw you will never lick her soles clean after she went for a stroll in Nurgles Garden

The highest paid prostitute in Commorragh.

...

Does that mean that the Tau will get Dyson Spheres?

Dyson spheres are way too lowtech for 40k

Tau will get spheres that contain whole solar system inside it.

Lion would plot to suck Girlyman's dick until Rouboute gave him a fancy enough title, then act like a sketchy douche once he got tenured

>never claimed to be a propher powerhouse
Yes. His amazing powers of foresight are talked about a lot.

>Should've continued his attempts
Maybe he couldn't cause, you know, Eldrad can't just barge in on Terra witht he Emperor there whenever he wants

>Murderclowns
Harlequins made no effort to stop the Heresy ever, Eldrad did, he didn't have command of any Harlequins at the time. If the Harlequins aren't willing to help him, then he can't force them.

>Cabal was explicitly stated to be a collection of powerful beings with a more powerful source of foresight than Eldrad. Furthermore they have far more involvement with human agents already. Eldrad did make attempts at communication. All attempts were rebuffed.

The Emperor has become a blatant mary-sue, as you keep proving.

I just don't want the Plot Arc I've been excited to read about for so long to just be swept aside for Primarchs.

Man I've been waiting and so stoked for Ynnead since it began and now it comes and its instantly just reduced to a pill for Primarchs. It hurts man. It hurts.

>Dyson spheres are way too lowtech for 40k

They really aren't, the only ones who have even come close to that level of structural engineering are the Necrons, I'm not sure you grasp exactly how infuriatingly bullshit the tech-levels required would be to actually make Dyson Spheres.

Either that or it was a jest at the current direction of the Tau, at which point no, they're going to make a sphere that contains the entire Tau Empire.

>are talked about a lot.
>He never claimed to be a prophet powerhouse.
Literally from my post. Malcy boi never claimed that too. Magnus also never mentioned Emps being the most powerful prophet ever.
>Eldrad can't just barge in on Terra
He could've just fucking called him. It's not like he can't send a psychic message anywhere on Terra.
>Harlequins made no effort to stop the Heresy ever
And it backfired.
>Eldrad did, he didn't have command of any Harlequins at the time.
He could've just fucking asked. I doubt that galaxy getting murdefucked by chaos is in Harlequins' interests
>The Emperor has become a blatant mary-sue, as you keep proving.
Like?

Dyson Spheres (or at least Dyson Swarms) are probably closer to our reach than FTL technology will ever be (a couple of hundred years at most). There's actually plans ready to dismantle mercury and build a swarm. It may be even a prerequisite for the titanic energies that any FTL is going to need.

I know, feel the same way. Ynnead was going to actually be Eldar doing something important for a change, and now its been instantly changed to just another way to bring in Primarchs. Our own death god is being turned into a side show to the Primarchs

But now the Eldars are allied with the Imperium and there is a non zero chance that one ends up shagging a Primarch, in which case the Eldar lose one of their biggest obstacle

>Strawmanning you argument
Yeah, no point even responding then if you're going to be ridiculous

>Call Terra
He tried, Emperor didn't believe him, would have been great if he had, but he didn't.

>Harlequins
What's your point? Has no bearing on Eldrad.

>Asked
He probably did but they refused. For all we know they bought into the Cabal's theory.

>Emperor Mary-sue
So you are trolling now?

Great, then don't expect responses to your fucking bait.

Dyson swarms would be insanely complex to keep at stable orbits without breaking each other, it's very dubious that the usable, sun-facing surface would actually have gravity due to the way things work on the inner surface of a sphere, and this is setting aside the material requirements that would require cannibalizing multiple solar systems to build the damn thing.

They are definitely not "closer than FTL" on the bullshit high tech scale.

Yeah but we've been reduced to glorified sidekicks. I like my faction and would like it to be its own protagonist and cool, not just to be lackeys for the Imperium.

I was really hoping if Ynnead ever happened it would be an actually awesome moment for the Eldar with major tangible stuff going on. Not just...becoming minions of Guilliman.

Should've kept trying. Seriously, the fate of an entire galaxy is at stake and he drops the idead after the first fail?

Try reading my post.

Never actually stated anywhere.
>So you are trolling now?
No, I want you to provide an example of me proving that Emperor was a Mary Sue.
>Great, then don't expect responses to your fucking bait.
Nigger, you need to chill.

You don't even need a complete Dyson Swarm. Just build a partial one to create Kugelblitz (proton-sized black hole generators) with the energy recovered and power your entire civilization with these.

They are not minions they left almost as soon as he was back, even tho he literally ask Yvraine to stay, which gave me the smuggest smile you could ever imagine.

Now she is free to do what she needs to do, without Eldar ever having to worry about the IoM getting on their way. And she will probably comeback to save him later on to the meltdown of half the fandom.

It's about as partisan as saying that Hiroshima really got nuked.

You Americans and your sports-fan conception of politics...

>The Emperor has become a blatant mary-sue, as you keep proving.

The Emperor pretty much started out as a plot device rather than a character. What GW is showing us with the HH books is because they're trying to keep him in some weird limbo between the two. Which combined with different writers having different conceptions of him makes him come off as incredibly dense at certain points and mary-sueish at others.

Woke up with one hell of a hangover, of course the man is thirsty.

If geedubs wasn't a negro father and instead took responsibility of everything it has done until now this should be cannon in 8th ed.

>I made a claim
It was just a claim, nothing more.
>drops the idead
Nice argument, you can't even write.
>Try reading my post.
Right back at you..
>Never
No, it is.
>No, I want you to provide an example
Literally here >Nigger, you need to chill.

GW modified the name Eldar and put an "A" at the start and an "I' at the end: Aeldari. How creative.

Biel-Tan is dead.

GW came out with 3 new shitty models at rip-off prices (as always).

The End.

>ask the harlequins
If they were going to help they'd go to him telling him that they were helping. If they didn't do so it's because it's not what they wanted to do. It's either Cegorach's will or not, they're some of the most devoted worshipers in the galaxy.

>itt autists having a heated argument on badly written fluff

that makes sense

...

"Hey, we won the Horus Heresy."

"In ten years."

>But now the Eldars are allied with the Imperium
they ain't, tho

As with every other big thing eldar get involved with, the eldar are trying to use [other faction] to their own ends, which will inevitably end up blowing up in their faces.

>It's about as partisan as saying that Hiroshima really got nuked.
But that's not true at all, some people actually don't think that trump is secretly working for the russians and is going to be a terrible president. He did win the election remember?

I don't recall him winning any election
