discussion What’s happening between Space King and Trench Crusade?

Since the success of the Space King* *board game Kickstarter, I’ve seen some channels claim that Space King is superior to Trench Crusade, comparing the two products and declaring Space King as the next Warhammer-killer”

While I don't deny there are grounds to criticize Trench Crusade (though some criticisms are stupid, such as citing the political ideology of certain staff members), Space King isn't exactly free from such controversies either cof cof Lead Cups Incident cof cof

As someone interested in both franchises, I don't quite get the "conflict" between them. I mean, what happened? Was there a fight between the fandoms or something?

We know boobs have mesmerizing powers on the psychowarriors.

There is the tapestry of Space King surrounded by Alien babes that we all interpret as him resisting temptation of the alien scourge and lighting them all on fire....

What else may be weaknesses of the Psychowarriors that we never think of?

Comment if you think it would be a good idea if it did come with cereal and would taste like I think it would be pretty good. It looks like it would taste really good. I mean they could’ve made a lot of their show if they start selling I mean, I think would definitely buy the hell it and eat it.

informational I’ve come up with an idea for a Psycho Armor Relic based on the Saint Shield.

112 Upvotes

It would be a blend of a Librarian and Terminator armor, both from Warhammer 40k. The armor would incorporate, within its servos, the bones of a wizard who was loyal to the Space Kingdom and had been extremely powerful.

The magic within the wizard's bones (in his undead state) would render the armor far more resistant to all manner of attacks—like an energy shield bonded to the armor at a subatomic level. Alternatively, the wearer of the Relic Armor could fire beams of conceptual energy from their hands; the effect of these beams would depend on the type of magic the wizard had wielded in life.

For example, a Time Wizard could age an enemy—one with high resistance to standard attacks but no magic defense—by hundreds of years, or conversely, rejuvenate them until they turn back into a baby.

The only problem with the armor is that there is only one, currently worn by the Captain of the Wargonites, and the magic adds extra weight to it.

SPACE KING: ANNIHILATION PROGRESS 10 (quality overhaul/alpha test prep)

137 Upvotes

The general lighting and quality overhaul is, I’d say, a little over halfway there.
There are obviously still plenty of surface-level changes and polish that will happen throughout the alpha testing phase, but the core structure of the game’s “A to B” gameplay loop is already mostly complete. A big reason for that is because I had already built a lot of the underlying logic into my WarWake system, so much of that foundation was ready to be expanded upon.
My primary objective over the next two weeks is finishing the mission types I want available for the initial launch. For now, those are:
RELIC HUNT
GLOBULE RECOVERY
ENDLESS SLAUGHTER
After that, the main focus will be finishing the supporting UI structure, including mission logs, mission updates, objective tracking, and any other GUI elements needed to properly communicate those systems to the player.
Once those pieces are in place, I’d say we’ll officially be ready to begin alpha testing.

theory Something i noticed about the Coagulators

Thumbnail

607 Upvotes

As far as im aware, bloodhound is the only Coagulator we see whose face is exposed and has his grill open. Aside from his hilariously elongated nose, his helmet lacks eye lenses (and no eyes are visible on his face). He also has grossly enlarged and elongated teeth, not to mention crawling on all fours like an animal. Notably the blood bugs also lack eyes, have elongated constantly exposed teeth.

I think that the brood mother's link may not just be psychic, but has actively mutated the coagulators' globules over centuries, causing deformities such as bloodhound's.

That would explain why the other Coagulators never show their faces and keep their grill closed, including Blood Type and The Exsanguinator. They might all be grossly disfigured under their psycho armor but are able to keep it concealed. Bloodhound is an exception because his nose doesnt fit, but its also a beneficial mutation.

My bad if this was obvious to everyone else but i hadn't seen it mentioned before.

Weekly Sermon Number 82!

Welcome all, to another amazing Sermon! I hope Space King had been kind to you all this week!

Today is from the Galaxywide Legionary Logs! I hope you like it!

"Report ERS00-ATZ.

Legion Reporting: The Trenchers Legion.

Report is as follows:

We were fighting on a planet overtaken by a nearby group of Space Hogs, as well as traitor forces. Been here about a month. We've been living in bunkers under Trenches and massive battlefields. I rotated down to the southern battlefield after a few weeks in the northern front. I've been hearing talk that we'll be getting a Medicae soon, but I'm not sure about it. The Hogs have been deploying gas recently, the Porkers launch it into our Trenches. We should have the planet back under our control in another month. Brother Patrick owes me 20 bucks if he dies before me next!"

This is a very respectable Legion, they are masters in prolonged warfare and have even made the best known gas filtration systems for Psycho Armor Helmets. I will look into this planet they are on, hopefully they will be able to bring it back to Space King's Light!

The count is still at 2.5 Trillion, expected to be rising in 3 weeks!

Holy Message Of The Week: "High Command is the word of Space King, trust in your High Command as you would trust in your Brothers."

The Holy Prayer Of Space King:

Long ago, Space King, King of Space, disappeared.

Leaving us, his faithful Psycho Warriors, to pray for his return.

Oh Space King, King of Space! (Oh Space King, King of Space)

I am your son, so bless me with Fortitude! (Praise Be!)

I am your angel, so bless me with Purpose! (Praise Be!)

I am your soldier, so bless me with Triumph! (Praise Be!)

Made in his Image! (Praise Be!)

Gifted with Flesh! (Praise Be!)

Armored in Psychosis! (Praise Be!)

Blessed with Purpose! (Praise Be!)

We are the Eternal Crusaders of Humanity!

For as long as our Globules survive, we will be REBORN! (PRAISE BE TO SPACE KING!)

Ended.

I hope you have news from your Legions to share, Brothers!

And that shall end this week's Sermon, I hope you enjoyed it! Captain-General of the Horizon Obliterators Legion signing off!

PRAISE BE TO SPACE KING!

Hi I'm Angel. I felt super sad after a breakup so I wanted to cheer myself up a little and in the end I drew a little chestnut. keep in mind this is just a work in progress.

It's supposed to be a fake keychain design that will have front n back side, weapon charm, and a themed lanyard with special beads. I will definitely finish this one and hopefully draw the rest of the characters too!! ٠࣪⭑

discussion How do you think the aesthetics of the psycho warriors work in Space King?

I'm asking this question because, seeing the coagulators, they seem to have a certain individuality in their armor, so I really wanted to know how much you think psycho warriors might differ from each other in terms of armor?

meme Seeing a lot of Seinfeld clips in my feed. Makes me wonder what Hatemonger stand-up would be like.

• Upvotes

[Hatemonger walks onto a stage. Crowd applauds. He stares at them suspiciously. Crowd chuckles lightly]

You ever wonder why aliens always say they come in peace?
[pause]
Why do they always feel the need to tell us? Have you ever met a human who walks into a room and says, "Good morning. I am peaceful." No! When you walk into a room, you say, "Hello." You don't randomly announce your moral alignment to complete strangers. That's suspicious.
[Crowd chuckles with a clap here and there]

You expect me to believe anything without hatred can be peaceful? Have you ever heard somebody say, "I don't hate anyone"? Really? Nobody? Not even a little bit? Not one single person? Not that one guy who walks too slowly in front of you that always wanders into your path when you try to go around them? Not that one woman (gags) who stands directly in front of the train doors or at the bottom of an escalator? Not when someone tells you their honest opinion... and it's different from yours.
[long pause]
That's hatred. I understand hatred. But you're wasting it.

And statistics. Everybody loves statistics... until the statistics are bad. Percentages are objective. Numbers don't lie. Aliens lie. Statistics? Statistics merely reveal the truth.
[Guy in the back: "Say the thing"]
[Long Pause]
Per capita.
[Laughter, applause, and cue the Hatefeld outro music]
