>>5298235That is 100% the desired effect I was going for with both the Steel Wardens and Talos upgrades lmao. Close, Mid, Range and even Long Range with our speed and ballistics trajectory calculations (hopefully coupled with enhanced Chronosense like Necrons or the use of Chronomancy).
What is a bullet from any gun, be it kinetic or energy pistol, in the perfectly stabilized hands of a sharpshooter with auger-eyes able to see thousands of yards away but a sniper weapon?
Barrel too short? Just use cognis bullets with internal gyro's to alter direction midair, or have the ends of the pistols have a magfunnel-array projector to ensure the bullet's trajectory is straighter than if it had been through a metal barrel.
And when it comes to short range melee combat, while we parry with shield and buckler, a shot to the belly is every bit as lethal as a sword stab. Only unlike a sword, it can also explode.
That's not to say we won't use any melee weapons. . .I would love to tip our guns with Aegis Energy Blade bayonets. Given they won't have any actual weight, it won't even affect the aim.
All big dreams for now, with many small steps to head to that end goal of Talos being the deadliest gunslinging marksmen ever seen. Something to make even Necrons look upon in awe.
If we don't essentially become one>>5297816>>5297822We are not actually breaking our promise I believe.
The whole "Evil God" thing is technically part of both our religions, our own as a Techpriest and Russ as a Fenrisian. It could also be interpreted as being metaphorical.
What would be breaking our vow is revealing the true nature of the warp I believe, something only we are privvy to.
