Can't spell hate without 8.

r8 8/8 h8 b8 m8

>two of their fingers
>two of their own toes
>eight
umm...

Try again, with feeling this time

Violence is eternal.
The number eight on its side is the symbol for infinity.

Because

NUMBER 8
*BUUURP*
NUMBER 8
*BUUURP*
NUMBER 8
*BUUURP*

makes people foam from their mouth in rage.

>Eight, eight, the burning hate. Between Sunday and Monday there lies a day so dark it will devastate.

>reddit and memey reference
FUCK OFF

1488 man.

Because he's actually Bel-Shamharoth in disguise.

They leave 8

1 Chaos, 4 Gods that are its aspects, Khorne, Khorne ?

Because 8 sideways is infinite; exactly the amount of blood and the amount of skulls khorne wants

Does the Emperor have a number?

>Khorne = 8 = hate
>Slaanesh = 6 = sex

What do 7 and 9 mean, then?

Hell yeah

KhorneXSlaanesh OTP

7 is a very special number across many religions and magic traditions.
9 because we needed to keep counting (should have stuck him on the bottom at 5, for the stages of grief.)

7 shoulda been Tzeentch's number

>Tzeentch = 9 = nein
>Nurgle = 7 = some dirty guy named Sven

For real, 9 is probably just because Tzeentch's symbol sort of has the same shape.

Shit, I got confused and thought it was Tzeentch.
I think it should be
>5: Nurgle, stages of grief
>6: Slaanesh, six=sex
>7: Tzeentch, mystical number seven
>8: Khorne, unending H8RED

Slaanesh probably also has 6 for the 666 association, since the Antichrist is frequently shown as a charismatic cult leader.

Slaansesh: 6 and 9

duh

Wasn't a deamon prince in 2nd edition 666 points?

9 is the the number of Tzeentch because it represents completeness and the end of cycles.

7 is Nurgle and 9 is Tzeentch

I know, I'm saying I wish it were otherwise.

i'd say they're fairly neutral territory, user

These responses are awful.

Much of the chaos god iconography and fluff is just ripped from different world religions. There's a fuckton of Buddhist references in Khorne worship; the 8 itself is jacked from the eightfold path.

>There's a fuckton of Buddhist references in Khorne worship
There is?

I think they call that "Irony"

It's probably out of date bc Khorne has for a long time been collapsed into the anger-war-god, but when Khorne worship was primarily about martial prowess, tactics, and a more professional sense of "warrior"ship it was more obvious that the monomaniacal battle-obsession was supposed to a perversion of Nirvana/enlightenment

Can you give a few excrepts that demonstrate this?

They have 8 fingers and toes left

>when Khorne worship was primarily about martial prowess, tactics, and a more professional sense of "warrior"ship

So never ever?

Seven ate Nine

m8...

Why is the number 6 sacred to Slaanesh?

>New Khornate lore
>The Great Games has the power of the Gods ebb and wane but Khorne always remains the most dominant and powerful god in the pantheon
>Khorne's mortal and daemonic followers outnumber the other gods followers many times over

Explain this, Veeky Forums. What's so attracting about Khorne's worship?

You worship the gods when you feel/act in their realm of power.

In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only War. Hence the God of War is the most powerful

6 is the first perfect number en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_number

because 8 is an infinity symbol that stands up for itself.

>some say eight is his number because eight mighty gods where slain by Khorne in the moment of his birth
>eight mighty gods where slain
>where slain

For fuck's sake GW.

They need red doods to fight the blue doods.

Cuz dubs

To represent his insatiable thirst for violence. yah see 8 is just infinity before you give it a power jab straight in the jaw.

Being angry is easy.
