I would have normal Imperial Army troops, the Andor ones who wear the breastplate and cap, very few assault troops, I would like to experiment with clones, not Jango's or other templates, I would like to have the clones with phase 3 armor in my garrison.

Clone Assassin has: Expert hand to hand and Melee. Combat speed and reaction time faster than peak Jedi master with precognition. Further enhanced genetics, and training.

Darktide Zealot to me is the real wild card. the lore seems to be all over the place for me. in one mission they die to a single easy encounter supported by a full heavily armed squad. in another, they solo large portions of the hive city with ultra heavy resistance. they obviously have the faith buff, and melee combat proficiency and experience.

What powers/abilities if any you want to give to the zealot is up to you.

My idea or hope was to try and find a (relatively) even match. If the "end game" zealot isn’t enough, the next I was going to do was a sister of battle minus power armor, with knives.

In previous posts, it’s been estimated that the assassin could take on at least 20 "standard" guardsmen with swords by himself at the same time before he gets overwhelmed. in another post, a 40K assassin would no diff solo an unlimited number of Clone Assassins.

We could do multiple situations.

1v1

2v2

5v5

1v3

20v20

1v10

etc.

The environment again, I’ll leave up to you. maybe you could cover that in your responses.

I always find these match ups to be interesting. and look forward to hearing your thoughts and how you think things would play out. Thanks in advance, cant wait to see what you write.

the vote continues, Which Single individual being or entity, between the two universes, what would be considered the third "the most powerful or strongest"?

The Top comment will be the winner

Which faction, between the two universes, what would be considered "the best standard infantry"?

this Vote is intended to show which "normal/grunt" faction is the best. or the strongest. this would not include things like special forces or space marines. think of the factions equivalent to the imperial guard trooper.

the winnner from the last vote was B2 Super Battle Droid from Star Wars

The Top comment will be the winner for the Second strongest or best standard infantry.

based on responses, the Astra Militarum (Imperial Guard) will be broken up into three parts. Top Tier, Middle Tier, and Low Tier, because of the size and scope.

I recently have been thinking about the more prevalent antisemitic rhetoric that seems to be going around.

Along with a recent video by an lds content creator. I know that many lds feel the current rhetoric surrounding the church and their membership in it has lead to things like the church shooting and then a church setting of fire. Words leading directly to action. Going beyond criticisms and disagreement and question, but seems to be “more”.

So my question is then, for you, where is the line when rhetoric becomes accountability for actions taken?

Today, 80% of Americans say religion is losing influence in American life. Sociologist Christian Smith’s book-length study Why Religion Went Obsolete: The Decline of Traditional Religion (2025) provides data that support this perception. One international study in the last decade that examined national levels of religiosity found that the United States ranked 14% lower in religiosity than formerly communist Russia. Many Americans have replaced religious commitments and identity with devotion to aspects of politics, popular culture, science, or all three.

Religion has been a controversial issue in popular media for decades. Unfortunately, shock is a more effective hook than carefully measured and well-established scientific findings about religion. As a result, we have a cultural susceptibility to listen to loud voices coming from various (and often extreme) cultural and political perspectives instead of making the effort to understand what rigorous analyses of scientific data reveal.

In an effort to combat extremes and the misinformation they can produce, we ask a central question: As we begin the second quarter of the 21st century, what do the best medical and social science studies tell us about religion and mental, physical, and social health? In The Religion and Mental Health Connection, the first report in a three-part series on religion and health, we draw on findings from medicine, psychology, family studies, and sociology that examine religious involvement and its relationship to psychological well-being, emotional functioning, and psychiatric outcomes.

Studies reporting positive associations between religious involvement and mental health (961) outnumber those reporting negative associations (101) by nearly 10:1. The strongest evidence links religious involvement to lower suicide risk, better coping with stress, reduced substance abuse and addiction, and higher levels of hope, meaning, and life satisfaction.

Although harmful or coercive forms of religion do exist, the overall pattern across the best available studies is clear: religious belief and practice are overwhelmingly associated with better mental and
emotional well-being.

The other two parts of this series, which will focus on physical health and social health, respectively, will be released in the over the course of the next several weeks.

Meetra Surik, also known as the exile in the Star Wars old republic times.

She had the ability to cut people off entirely from the force. This has degrees. It can kills (as the force seems to be the energy source of all life) or more commonly just sever any force sensitivity, powers, or connection, while leaving the person alive. She is seen as a counter or a “light side” mirror of Darth Nihilus.

She herself was a wound in the force and cut herself off totally and completely. Maker her essentially just a normal (real life) human.

In this situation, let’s say she was emboldened by the pleadings of Darth Traya. She is determined to kill and remove the force. Through her being a wound in the force, at the height of her power, at a nexus location, she decides to eliminate all beings connection, reliance, and sensitivity to both the force, and the warp. Them being the cause of unimaginable suffering and pain.

This situation happens. The stars align perfectly that her plan and goal is achieved.

Everyone essentially becomes blanks. There is no more warp corruption of individuals. There is no more warp mutations. Even all changes automatically reverse. No more force or warp powers or amps. Nothing. This includes all Daemons and animals. Even the chaos Gods no longer can connect or draw power from the warp. She is no respect or of persons. From the greatest Sith Lord, to the smallest infant. All have their connection cut. The warp and the force are now incapable of empowering, connecting , or in any way interacting with any thing.

The wound and tear is total and complete.

What would happen in each of the respective universe. What would be the consequences? How bad would it get.

I will give one alternative situation. The God emperor foresaw this happening. And so, in preparation, he upped the sacrifices to him, or built a specific shield, or some other mugufin that allowed him to maintain The Astronomican. Along with keeping navigators operational. But that’s all that was able to be saved.

Edit: because it looks like I wasn’t clear. I’m saying all things stay alive. Just have no connection to the force or the warp. I understand these are life giving entities, but assuming that life remains but any and all connections are lost.

The dark reaper which feeds off the force and uses that power to power shields and weapons, and output to destroy everything around it. Draining the life from its targets as it goes.

Activating this in the warp creates essentially a never ending and forever expanding bomb. Once activated would assumingely consume all of the warp.

What do yall think?

Just the title. A interdictor is inside the warp, and activates its gravity well generator.
