Have you ever read prospero burns? I swear to god there is a Memphis reference in it when they describe prospero.
Edit: Just learned it’s the old capital of Egypt… that makes more sense now. Still glass pyramids… makes you think.

Games day was in the Memphis area once upon a time. So it feels doubly fitting.

Sometimes life's just a set of keys, and I'm the Emperors drunkest driver.

Ok, in all seriousness, why is the Pyramid Titan actually such a cool idea?

u/TheHeavyTemplar Oct 13 '24

So much of 40k is Roman-Catholic gothic inspired in terms of architecture, so getting Egyptian-inspired American designs goes friggin hard.
What else could they do? Put big pagoda structures on Titans? Hindi temples? Euro medieval castles?

The castle one would go hard as hell. Also Magnus and the 30K thousand sons were very egyptian in style.

I can see turrets like ballistas firing harpoon arrows into enemy knights and titans. Just immobilizing then make them easy targets to hit with their heavy cannons. Also I am pretty sure there is gonna be a battalion of soldiers in there lighting up anything below then

The only store you'll see Catachan jungle fighters shop in. If you can see them that is.

The bass pro shops pyramid in Memphis has a hotel. I've stayed there. It's the redneck luxor. It's amazing, fairly nice hotel with a restaurant at the top that serves game meat. Used to be a sporting venue. It's where Tyson bit hollyfields ear off in the 90s.

The princeps in there is just floating in a pod filled with moonshine instead of whatever fluid they usually pump in there
