Urriak Urruk Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 From https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/04/23/new-warhammer-40000-the-galaxy-map/ I think this is a new map (close if not). Also feel free to move somewhere out of news if this isn't news-y enough. I haven't finished looking over it all, but it is pretty cool. Very much Time of Ending kind of setting.

Olis Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 This has already been brought up here. With that in mind, rather than closing the thread, I'll bump it over to the Amicus for further discussion.

No Foes Remain Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 To quote on Bender Bending Rodriguez "We're boned" For reals though, this does look interesting albeit a little.... err... chaotic (no pun, I swear).

Urriak Urruk Posted April 23, 2017 Author Share Posted April 23, 2017 I gotta say that Imotokh the Stormlord has been busy. It looks like his dynasty has even conquered Attila. Bye-bye Rough Riders.

the jeske Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Well looks like all tyranids are dead. Not a happy thought, as even tau made it on the map.

Olis Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Well looks like all tyranids are dead. Not a happy thought, as even tau made it on the map. Oh, I'm sure they have their own map.

Brother Casman Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Oh good, looks like all the Eldar are dead too. Perfidious Eldar... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333185-new-map-of-the-galaxy/#findComment-4718293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legionnaire of the VIIth Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Well looks like all tyranids are dead. Not a happy thought, as even tau made it on the map. So that means that Eldar are dead as well as no webway locations, Craftworlds, or Exodite Worlds are shown on the map either.

Mazer Rackham Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Hmm. Chaos Coreward. Orks Rimward, Necrons Spinward, Tau Trailing. Situation excellent - attacking in all directions! MR.

Kriegsmacht Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Ah yeah I just checked. Guess I was confusing the Halo Stars with the Ghoul Stars being guarded by the Death Spectres for some reason.

tkni Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 It looks like they've used the same base map as the chapter galaxy map, so I've quickly overlaid them: http://i.imgur.com/U9OlX3p.jpg The deep purple being the 'new' warp rifts. It's not helped by the inconsistent placement of chapter home worlds, but may help give a bit of context.

Tyberos the Red Wake Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I like that they haven't neglected the edge of the galaxy. Gives armies like my own and custom Tyranid fleets more play via Chaos and apparently Orks now too, and makes the Ghoul Stars even more interesting.

Slave to Darkness Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Always wanted them to elaborate more on the Ghoulstars, would have been better to start a new crusade to expand the Imperium than bring back Primarchs and have heresy 2.0. They could have introduced more xenos races, xenos races dedicated to chaos or other warp stuff. Like some crazy Dead Space / Hellraiser / Event Horizon lovechild of weirdness. :wub: Ahh well, Ive just had ideas for my own Inquisimunda stuff now lol.

Silentz Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 The Rock has moved a lot. It's in a completely different Segmentum! I guess this is a big retcon to get them closer to the action, closer to Prospero etc and more in the thick of things?

The Rock moved to the Fenris System as part of an Imperial Crusade when the Wulfen showed up. Remember, it can move under its own power.

roryokane Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 More importantly - Deliverance, Medusa, and Chogoris are absent. What. The. Hell. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333185-new-map-of-the-galaxy/#findComment-4718761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 If planets are missing it's because it's impossible to not over saturate a map with text boxes in photoshop when you start locating everything.

Claws and Effect Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Yeah. Deliverance, Medusa, and Chogoris being missing is odd. Especially since Rynn's World is there. Guess we know which Chapters GW doesn't care about. 3 First Founding chapters ignored while a Second Founding chapter's nearly destroyed planet is included. Makes sense though. I don't recall anything the Iron Hands take center stage in, and the White Scars and Raven Guard only really got featured in a Tau-focused campaign book in which they got their butts kicked repeatedly.
