    I can think of no other response to this other than "Yes, and?'"

    If the knight cannot see the end in that then he truly is lost.

    Well, I wouldn't say it's only a difference of opinion. Some gods involve a little more torture and suffering than others.
    Oh, is he realising all magic is chaos?

    I have a request. The main story spawned a number of side-story based on alternates version of the main character, but those side-stories are not easily reachable: to read them from start to end one needs to go all over the rest of the chapters, and there always is the possibility to miss one. Would it be possible to either put those in 'sidestory' labelled threadmarks or repost them entirely in a dedicated thread, a bit like the 'Story Only' one?

    Thankyou in advance!

    Um. I only played WH in the post AoS phase (Least till they decided to fucking squat my army.) But I had dabbled with Brettonians previously and am curious where do you get the lore that the Lady of the Lake was apparently a lie? Or is this just chaos up to their usual tricks.

    In the End Times plot before they killed the game for AoS, it was shown that the Lady, was a guise for the Elven Goddess Lileath, and the whole grail thing was mostly her form of control over the region, using the Knights as a force to hold back chaos while she built up power to try and save what elves she could from the cycle of destruction, using the souls of dead Grail Knights as sort of Proto Sigmaraites (bound spirits to defend her true children, the elves) to flee to another world. Doesn't work out the way she wanted to.

    Of course in canon, near the finish line the Bretonnians have been informed of some of this, a huge chunk of the nobility is now vampires, Half the common folk are dead of plague (thanks nurgle) and then the Green Knight shows up, kicks ass, takes names, and shows that's he's actually the immortal first king of the Bretonnians, and takes back the crown to launch a new quest against all the bad shit going down.

    Then the planet explodes. GG

    all true. except i always saw the green knight as lileath's bitch. if the planet didnt explode, and the green knight somehow succeeded it would've been back to good old oppressive fuedalism.

    Considering Warhammer Paul's plan will be to starve the Gods of Chaos out of existence, as those gluttonous horrors and their daemonic hordes feed upon the drives and passions of mortalkind, how exactly does he plan to cut their supply off fully?

    Instituting mandatory meditation practices, and commissioning talismans/amulets from the Asur that captures and purifies the power produced by such emotions before returning it to energy-system of the owner possessing such a object, maintaining the overall physical, mental and spiritual health of the individual?

    Needs a Gold power ring if you're gonna go for Imperial Truth mandate like the Big E.

    From my understanding it's more likely to just make them pointless. Why Sell your Soul to the chaos gods if your standard of living is far better following the orange goof ball, with his introduction of indoor plumbing, 9 to 5 work week with paid holidays and you know, NOT fighting a horrible battle to the death with any semi pointy object you might have on hand every day of your life.

    Chaos lives for CHAOS, the emotions that feed them are one thing, but their impact on the world, aside from directly sending demons, is offering power to mortals in a bid to cause conflict, that in turns creates more of those emotions, and more mortals pushed to the fringes that are willing to cut deals. While they have direct power in the chaos wastes because of the broken warp gates that let them into this world, they don't have the power to manifest outside of those areas without someone letting them in.

    Raise standard of living via Uplift, lock down external influx of tainted warpcraft (go ask some slann about that), and set up a defensive force that none can rival. Chaos starts looking pretty silly when you've got safety 3 squared meals, leisure time and a scientific understanding of what all those screaming voices want.

    I mean, the 40k Eldar STILL fucked it up even after they got that, which is where Slannesh came in with the whole 'Prince of Excess' side, but they aren't going in blind with that this time, and WHFB isn't quite the power level for creating a full fledged Chaos GOD without noticing it.

    Well.....maybe Nuffle

    Well, he did say there are fairly large holes in his plan.

    Finding out ways similar if not exactly what I suggested, to deprive the Chaos Gods of some of their main power sources would certainly fill some of them.

    One of those holes is the fact that the Chaos Gods are connected to multiple universes, one of which is Warhammer 40,000. If he wants to starve the Chaos Gods of power, the Old World will just be the first of millions for him to fix.
