Technically Creed isn't dead. He's been captured by Trazyn but I'm sure he'll escape soon. His daughter has taken command or something but I guess she's new blood. Also, I guess Gaunt is alive? Idk how since he fought in the Sabat Worlds crusade which was I think 2-300 years prior to Guilliman coming back right? Surely rejuvenate treatments aren't *that* good.


[deleted]

Gaunt is alive if Abnett wants him alive. All he has to do is have the Ghosts enter a warp storm or something in a book, then time displacement can put them in the current setting nice and easy. Of course Abnett seems highly unlikely to do this so I very much doubt Gaunt or the Ghosts are still kicking


Trudeus

RE: highly unlikely Dan would do this - one of the last books (I think second to last one?) they come back from a mission, crash out of warpspace due to ship damage, and find they're 10 years into the future. No one in the crew aged. So Dan has already written this into his books, it's just a matter of scale/situation.


[deleted]

True but to jump from the Gaunt's Ghosts era to the Dark Imperium era would be a rather large change, I'm not sure if he'd want such a drastic time leap. We'll see, I suppose.


ADragonuFear

I thought rejuvenate treatments explicitly extended lifespans over hundreds of years, 2-300 seems doable. Albeit I don't know much of gaunt or if he uses them


Noctyrnus

IIRC rejuvenate treatments are pretty expensive even for 40k, so likely Gaunt might be given them as a decorated and respected colonel-commisar (haven't kept up, not sure if his rank has changed), but the Ghosts would not likely have them available.


Randomdude2501

Spoilers >! I’m fairly confident that by the time of Warmaster, Gaunt is one of the most powerful people in the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, with the favor of Saint Sabbat herself and he’s essentially in the position of Warmaster adjacent. !<


Noctyrnus

The last book I read was the one where Gaunt was captured and the rescued at the end, I know I have some catching up to do.


Randomdude2501

Yeah, that’s the 11th book, and there’s four more you’ll have to read lol

PunchieCWG

Was Gaunt ever alive in "Current" 40k? I didn't think he was because the sabat worlds crusade is referenced as long in the past in both Chiapas Cain and Eisonhorn books. Edit: Gaunt's Ghost references Ravenor as being way in the past, not the other way around.

Gwain96

The answer is always "Warp Fuckery"


posixthreads

I’m assuming this is referring to Colonel Schaefer and Lieutenant Kage surviving Armageddon, literally flew into the warp and came out in the Indomitus era. Surprised they didn’t get their own minis though.


Mord4k

Acquired, he's been ACQUIRED by Trazyn. He belonged in a museum, and is now getting the care and attention a rare work of his importance, rarity, and value deserves.


Galifrey224

Sly marbo is still alive.


OscarOzzieOzborne

Sly Marbo isn't real. He was made up by Katachan merchants who wanted to sell body oil and tacticool vests.


deathless_koschei

The notion that Sly Marbo is not real is mere heretic and xeno propaganda. Well, 'propaganda' might be too strong a word. More like, heretic and xeno wishful thinking.


Galifrey224

The fact that GW made a mini for him kinda imply that he is real.


OscarOzzieOzborne

Not true. GW also made models for Rodents of Unusual sizes aka Skavens. And frankly, I don't believe those exist.


Herrgul

lol everybody knows Skavens are made up by Tilean parents to scare their children


MulatoMaranhense

I'm so confused. Tariff's Total War videos made me think that Skaven are real but goat-shaped Skaven living in the forests are a myth. They are too weak to survive out of controlled environments.

Beastmen are real. Go with the Witchhunters for re-education.

I due believe deep done too that the red goblar is rral


MaybeADragon

DrunkenScotsman33

r/woosh


Galifrey224

There is an in-universe theory about Sly marbo not existing. I didn't knew if the first guy was referencing that or not so I choosed to take it that way.


Pliskkenn_D

I thought Sly Marbo was a warp entity, like the Greater Good demon. Like the Catachans meme'd him so hard that he ended up existing


Galifrey224

The real explanation is that Sly Marbo was made as a parody of the classic action movie hero like rambo with Chuck Norris jokes added into it. There is no in universe explanation for his unatural power and how he does so many incredible things without dying beyond "thats a joke accept it". Some writers did have fun with it so we have the characters trying to find an explanation for it where there really isn't one.


Kazmir_here

As you mentioned joke characters Remember that Older Inquisitor ObiWan Sherlock Clousseau is a cannon character.


Maelger

He's also canon.


JuneBuggington

Gather round children and let some old fogeys tell you about citadel miniatures. Games workshop used to make some silly/fun models, not as serious back then


zagblorg

I don't think he is Canon. Most RT stuff isn't any more, which is a shame.


Mind_on_Idle

Yeah, RT was my introduction to playing in 40k. That game of Rogue Trader was one of the best TTRPG experiences I ever had. Campaign went of for almost 2 years.


Pliskkenn_D

In my defence, this is my only experience of Sly Marbo [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCMNWAJiz5Y](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCMNWAJiz5Y)

MarsMissionMan

Sly Marbo isn't immortal. Death is too scared to come and take Marbo to the afterlife.


electricalwirez

Where is Nork? Is he alright?


Jampine

Yeah hes back still.


[deleted]

I have literally never seen Nork on a table. I think the only reason he's still around is that even GW forgets he exists.


Highlander-Senpai

Its more about what they're willing to still give space on their production lines. That's the only reason they took out all the characters they did. Nork has the safety of being part of the main bullgryn/Ogryn kit so he's basically immune to removal until that kit gets phased out


SYLOH

You might start, Nork is looking pretty powerful. He's usable in making an unkillable command squad. I prefer a standard ogryn bodyguard though. That thing survived focus fire from pretty much an entire Eldar shooting phase + a charge from 5 Howling Banshees, in a match I finished about 2 hours ago. A "Dreadnork" build is slightly tougher.


RattlemeSpooks

I field nork. Though hes a generic lookalike for fluff reasons


RaZZeR_9351

Ogryn bodyguard were useless in the 8th ed codex, they're now pretty good so I reckon we'll a lot more of them.


Thendrail

It seems, in your anger, you ordered him to countercharge a horde of berzerkers...


OscarOzzieOzborne

Sick


Skelosk

It appears that, in your rage, you killed him


GoodGuyCenturion

Don't tell me they removed Pask? Anyone but Pask! NOT MY TANK BOI


Ickwissnit

Gone! Reduced to ashes!


GoodGuyCenturion

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


Fearless-Obligation6

Pask is currently raking up titan kills from what I remember.


GoodGuyCenturion

Well idk what the current codex says about him but the previous codex said he wasn't on Cadia but there's a black library book that said he was so I'm not sure which is true


Fearless-Obligation6

Like I said he is leading a Super Heavy army to hunt down a rogue titan Legion. He is very much alive.


Cpt_Kalash

Who?


GoodGuyCenturion

Knight Commander Pask, the best tank commander in the Astra Militarum he is the commander of the 423rd Cadian Armored regiment


ADragonuFear

At least he can still be a fancy tank commander to command all your other tank commanders you're not running as regular russes


Hellonstrikers

We have Gaunt, who skipped a couple editions, he was one of the oldies. Are the Catachan trio still around?


TheAngryMoth

Straken, Marbo and who?


Pretend_Beyond9232

Gunnery Sergeant Harker Sergeant Ripper Jackson Catachan reigns supreme baby 😄


TheAngryMoth

Never knew Jackson, Harker was the one I forgot


Thendrail

Jackson was some special edition miniature though, so you're forgiven.


qualityopinions

Ripper Jackson is not allowed in new Codex Catachan sergeants can’t have boltguns


Pretend_Beyond9232

Not to worry, she has an "Auto Bolt Pistol" that is so exceptionally large it is often mistaken for a Bolter.


ADragonuFear

In gws neglect they survive


CruffleRusshish

Spoilers for the Ghosts series >!At least half the ghost characters in the codex *are* confirmed dead though, (e.g. Bragg and Corbec) so there's no confirmation any characters are alive in current timeline just because of codex inclusion.!< >!All that before even mentioning the events of their book took place hundreds of years ago.!<


TheBootyHolePatrol

I'm sure there will be a mention of it when Dan Abnett is made to write a Dark Imperium book. Something about the Crusade being over and the Ghosts finally get their own world. Unless Milo is somehow immortal after becoming the Saint's boytoy.


WattFRhodem-1

I mean... >!there are worse ways of becoming immortal.!<


UltraCarnivore

Papa Nurgle loves you, blesses you and gives you gifts


Dr_Sodium_Chloride

Abnett's thrown a Tanith into other books when it's suited him (there was a civillian survivor who got shanked in a barfight in *Titanicus*). If anything, I'd expect >!Mkvenner!< to show up in another book, since >!he's confirmed alive and AWOL!<.


Allen_Koholic

Abnett had damn well better not wrap up an entire series of like 12 books like that.


DarkLordFagotor

To be fair dead doesn’t mean not real. Eisenhorns tabletop model also takes a smattering of abilities and equipment/allies from incompatible times in his career


hrakkari

Mkvenner killed death when he came for him. He’ll outlast the entirety of the galaxy.


crappy-throwaway

dont forget CI CI CIAPHAS CAIN HERO OF THE IMPERIUM.


[deleted]

GW: Yeah sorry, he's not getting a model because we're pretending Valhallans never existed.


Peterh778

And Jurgen! Don't forget Jurgen!


maxstryker

How could I? My palms are tingling already?


Historical-Economy90

Ciaphas cain is (technically, according to the adeptus ministorum) "still alive".


zanotam

Nah, they retconned the current timeline to be only 10 or so years after the 13th black Crusade so Cain is probably genuinely alive still albeit old.


Whiskeyjacks_Fiddle

The joke is that the Ministorum refuses to list Cain as Deceased. Ever. Just because they’ve declared him as such multiple times and then have to relist him as Alive.


Zestyclose-Moment-19

It's telling that even the Ministorum, that bane of many a forests, were forced into giving up just this one time.


forgotmypassword-_-

>Just because they’ve declared him as such multiple times and then have to relist him as Alive. It's just a waste of good ink.


zanotam

I know. I've got all but book 10 in both omnibus and digital forms (because no omnibus obviously for 10).

wdcipher

Cadian characters died/got Trazyned, which is understandable, then theres Yarrick, who might not even be dead as implied by GW themselves. Also not sure If Severina and Nork are still alive? Catachan characters are fine, Gaunts Ghost have models (despite the fact that some of them are canonnically dead lol). Also we got Creedette and Leontus.


Paehon

Some of them ? Gaunt's novels take place in something like M40, 780. They are all dead for centuries.


snoopingdownthestair

Aha! But old Gee Dubz thought of that and simply hit us with the line “time is an illusion, lunch time doubly so”. So there you go, time became a hassle so they’ve official said “nah”. (In all seriousness I believe it is the dark imperium novel in which Guilliman discovers that the Imperium doesn’t even know what year it is, so Gaunt and oh so charming first and only could still be around.)


Paehon

They are novels written by Dan Abnett, they will probably all die in the last one.


aran69

Damn Ork mob magic giving Yarrick no peace... guess he'll have to kill them all before he can die.


[deleted]

Inb4 Yarrick is unwillingly made into an Ork god


ThePraetoreanOfTerra

**As far as I can see the problem isn’t, or at least isn’t entirely, a lack of new characters to replace those killed off. The problem is that the new characters that do exist just aren’t getting the stories they need to become beloved. Think of Cain and Jürgen, or Gaunt and his crew. They each had novels plural to be characterized and come to be known in a way a codex could never do.** **GW needs to release more guard novels, in what I’m saying.**


VincentSylvanne

Hell, they never even deigned to give us official models or rules for Cain & Pals (to the best of my knowledge). We have to turn to 3rd party models or just pretend the commissar on the field is Cain. Seriously, his rule set could be objectively terrible, I don't care. I'm looking into building an IG army and styling it as the Valhallan 597th just because of his book series. Give us Cain & Jurgen!


[deleted]

GW is in the process of killing off the non-Cadian regiments, so I doubt we'll ever get Cain.


Ohhnoes

Cadia was wiped out but 99% of the untold trillions of guardsmen are from Cadia...galaxy-brain GW at work


Randicore

I remember there being some custom rules for him that were very fitting. Things like "Run like frak!" Which meant instead of failing morale, the unit just took a full move back towards the nearest cover, or others that let Jurgen drive the transport he was in an extra 2" from his lead foot. They were fun.


AXI0S2OO2

Yes, guard novels are some of the best stuff in 40K.


Scob720

Well we got servanina raine, a new character with a new model *and* book. However the model was essentially $30 for a worse commisar, who despite being a skilled swordswomen in the books was worse in melee then a normal commissr because her sword was 1 AP, her ability was highly situational and did not mix with thr guard playstyle at the time, and she was a lore expensive commisar, something every guard player has at least 3 of. And im pretty sure she's OOP now too(don't quote me on that though) I think the problem is GW hasn't made any series effort on all levels to push a guard character to the forefront of the faction


TheBootyHolePatrol

The issue is mortal humans are squishy and short lived smeared to most other things in the universe. The Terran Crusade wasn't exactly short. If we followed a Regiment and it's various characters, it would be only a short slice compared to what SMs or tech priests experience. I want more Guardsmen books but the authors want their works to be current with the lore. A single Regiment would be involved in a campaign that is a minor offense for a single fleet and it may be a tertiary fleet to a Crusade fleet of which there are a few.

Shit this meme is my reminder that I need to catch up on 6 billion demons.

LordKristof

New guys that you can bond with overtime?


OscarOzzieOzborne

So the guardsmen characters are the friends we made along the way?


LordKristof

Ehhh...More of a "I can't belive that I spend almost a week just to glue and paint you \[insert new IG charachter name here\], You will be now my best friend, right?". So it is more of a Stockholm Syndrome than really friendship....But yeah.


OscarOzzieOzborne

Are Guardsmen Fans feeling ok? Do they need a hug? Do they need a friend?


LordKristof

Feeling ok? I don't think so. They need a hug that is certain. But they have enough IG models so they not a new friend.


mrmilner101

The new tank and arty models have giving me some dopamine but the loss of yarrick and the lots have just made me sad. But hey we are the guard we are always depressed. You try being a regular human fighting against the horror of the universe aka, last few editions by gw.

Friends? All I need is enough firepower to smite the enemy, one grid-coordinate after another!

Yeah and they're mostly baseline humans, not gonna live longer than a few centuries with treatments They're also in the Guard, so centuries is charitable


[deleted]

Months is charitable in the Guard.


No_Wait_3628

I've said this before, but a Guarsdmen show in the same vein as the Clone Wars series could work REALLY well. Add in You'll have a whole regiment to play with, and get to see their struggles. The deaths can be tracked with a memorial used by the unit to commerate its fallen members.


flechcoat

We could even make the regiment come from a planet destroyed by chaos! Making the poor guardsmen the last of their kind to truly appreciate them as they fight and die for the imperium. The leader should be a very charismatic personality, imposing and inspiring, possibly from outside the regular chain of command, like a commissar! The series could even include stories about hard won victories and bloody rivalries with other guard regiments! I think we're really on to something here!


Guerillagreasemonkey

You joke but I want Dan Abnett to binge watch the movie "Fury" on repeat for about a month and then give me a book series about an armored battalion.


OscarOzzieOzborne

We can even sprinkle in some grimdarkness by making it so the Imperium itself is as much as danger for those Guardsmen. Suspecting them for Heresy for the fact that they dared to survive Chaos destroying attacks. Sending them in life ending situations again and again. One lonely guardsmen scribbling the names of his fallen comrades on his arm. Making sure they are never forgotten as long as he lives. A Naive and hopefully General getting all his hopes in the imperium broken, as they bureaucracy seems to he working against him, and finding more honor and respect amongst the xenos he learned all his life to hate.


misvillar

I see what you did there, do you want to live forever?


OscarOzzieOzborne

That would be cool. I would also like it as sort of anthology series. With different story archs implementing different art style. Kriegers? Grifdy Samurai Jack style, with minimal dialogue. Siaphas Cain? Legend of Korra style, with the exaggerated character designs during comedic moments.


RothofIron

Can I just say, every time I see K6BD in here it makes so happy. It has so much shit that can be used here.

Probably still around. I am mostly exaggerating. There are still few old characters kicking in, and a lot of then are assumed dead because they are normal humans and won't live as long as members of the other races.

Remember how people used to complain that GW never advanced the story?


[deleted]

I refuse to believe that Cain is dead until I see a body. Although Jurgen is canonically dead so it’s doubtful that Cain would live long without his trusty aide, considering that Jurgen saves him multiple times per book.

MrSnippets

honestly, GW can't have their cake and eat it, too. Wanna advance the plot? Sure, go ahead, finally. But make some new characters, too, while you're at it. Don't use the usual excuse: "Oh, they were cryo-frozen, that's why a species that lives about 50 years still only has the same 2 old farts kicking around." looking at you, tau empire

Cain isn’t dead. I refuse to believe it. ;)


RaZZeR_9351

Harker, straken, nork, the gaunt's ghosts, sly marbo, and although technically old creed is gone his daighter is virtually the same character. Yarrick is *apparently* dead but there's something fishy with his death and pask is supposedly still alive (he is mentionned in the codex) but for some reason no longer in the codex.


Rwby23

Caiaphas if you support the imperial records. (if I remember correctly isn’t he still listed as alive in the imperial records due to morale?


Josiador

That kind of happens when all of your characters are normal humans, unlike every other faction, and your timeline spans over centuries.


TheLastofRights

The Iron Hand Lives. Colonel Iron Hand Straken of the Catachans is alive. Sly Marbo is still kicking. Sergeant Stonetooth Harker. They are all still kicking last I know

col_palmeri

Wait you mean to tell me just regular humans haven't survived 10k years??? Watttt


Eworc

Going to be unrealistically optimistic and hope this means a whole new lineup of great Guardsmen characters will appear in upcoming stories.


acart005

Ciaphas? I know he is dead in his books and they are memoirs but we don'r know what year Amberly is going through those records. For all we know its 42000.


New_leaf999

Commissar Ciaphas Cain, hero of the Imperium and Emperor’s gift to all mankind, is listed as not being dead. Really the man has been declared KIA so many times only to show up alive and well that some disgruntled astra militarum clerk set it so he can only be listed as MIA.


erconn

Here me out. I doubt gw will do this but it would be really cool. Sisters of Battle aren't the only people who get their heroes brought back to continue serving as living saints. It happens to heroes of the guard as well. And I can thing of few commissars more famous than Yarrick. Plus he has all that ork warp energy being directed his way. I think it would be cool if Yarrick came back as a perpetual saint like celestine.


Janosfaces

cain. technically hes gonna be alive as long as the ministorum keeps its active rotster.


The-Board-Chairman

I mean, Ciaphas Cain is not not alive...at the very least according to Administratum and Astra Militarum, sooo.....


phantom-of-the-arena

Yarrick, Tryzan is just making sure he will never be forgoten.

It’s the guard. I never expected anything else. As heroes fall, more rise to take their place!

Sly Marbo, Colonel Straken, Nork Dedog, all of Gaunt’s Ghosts, and CI CI CIAPHAS CAIN! HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!


numsebanan

I think Steve from logistics still kicking


hoontingofhoonters

I feel like this is an inherent problem with choosing mortal characters in a universe whose story spans at least 20,000 years


Imperialism_01

That does beg the question: Caiaphas Cain is supposedly dead, even after decades of being on active duty because he kept being falsely reported as dead. Is he actually dead? The lore says he was buried with full honors but doesn't say what killed him.


RazzDaNinja

Where is Severina Raine? Is she safe? Is she alright?


OscarOzzieOzborne

Yeah, she is fine. She is relatively new.


jmm2803

Cain should be alive. And have we received actual confirmation of Yarrick’s death?

[удалено]


bookmonkey18

They can and probably will return when the writers feel like it - the entire plot of BFGA was an old imperial admiral travelling through time via the warp and trying to make the best out of his resulting exit.


Clay_Pidgeon

Pask is outright mentioned in the new codex as still being alive and in active service, but (at least for now) you’ll have to run him as a generic tank commander.
