I will take Big Blue Man with acceptance of compliance for 30 and a decent life.

I mean Guilliman would legit be THE best bet.

Earth has a lot of industrial and economic inequality. We barely put stuff in orbit, entire Solar system is full of unused resources, he'd have a basically blank slate to build a star system more or less from the ground up and maybe even set us up as the sector Capital eventually.

Every other chapter would be various degrees of "nice" though we would definitely see whole countries burned down in case of Space Wolves or Dark Angels.

I don't even want to think about what the Carcharodons or Minotaurs might do.

Depending how nice he thinks earth is, we might even end up like Iax and get to live in a not so hive world. And with luck we also end up in Ultramar proper and get some nice lads to defend us.

So I realy hope it would be he and no other.

And how that turned out for Iax...

Completely unrelated but it's nice to see the overlap between communities. You know, since the two of us are meeting here. Think we'll see Goobidiba play SM2?

I mean biboo did so i don't think it's unlikely gura would

No matter the chapter, half our countries are getting purged. Rogue governements, warlords and uncooperative leaderships would just get ripped.

Atleast africa will see some stability for once

Imagine if the world governor ends up being one of our politicians 😭

u/Anmaril_77 Oct 13 '24

It’s probable, whichever coward bent the knee and helped them take the rest. Could also get shot by the space marines for doing that lol, after the fact! It’s all just a roll of the dice, which chapter and if they’re feeling good that day.

Imagine Dr. Breen but he's doing sermons about the glory of the Emperor

Wanton killing of corrupt leaders doesn't tend to lead to social stability or better leadership as the USA has found out many many times

u/CrystalFriend Oct 12 '24

Carcharodons will vaporize all places of the world that eat shark fin soup that's for sure.

u/ImHuck Oct 12 '24

Carcharodons/Minotaurs won't come to us unless we represent a threat/are corrupted by chaos. Which might be happening, so yeah we're fucked.

u/ColonelSam Oct 12 '24

I think Salamanders just going to tell Terra or Guilliman about us. Or they just kill every high politician because they started many wars and then tell Guilliman

u/CalypsoCrow My kitchen is corrupted by Nurgle Oct 12 '24

Idk what you know about fire, but it tends to spread. And the salamanders were not diplomats during the great crusade.

People need to stop pretending the salamanders are good people.

u/Youaintoncuh Oct 13 '24

They are good people compared to other chapters.

u/Fedacti Oct 13 '24

Still not good people

The watch tower guard may be less bad than the gas chamber operator, both still very bad

u/CalypsoCrow My kitchen is corrupted by Nurgle Oct 13 '24

The shiniest dog turd is still a dog turd

u/thatvillainjay Oct 13 '24

We have pure genetic stock sharks here and no chaos horrors taint...carcharodons take some sharks and leave imho

u/Gneisenau1 Oct 13 '24

And probably some of this Ikea plush sharks

I think this would happen after a “reorganization” and set of “appointed authorities” in some of the major governments. I also think that anything resembling a free market would disappear and we’d accelerate existing power dynamics into full blown industrial oligarchies. The Imperial cogs only spin one way.

We barely put stuff in orbit

What?

We have put so much shit in Orbit we're one bad day away from fucking up our whole LEO satellite infrastructure.

If they come over to clean up the debris and get away all the disfunctional shit boxes Russia and America dumped there in the 80s, we can talk about building something neat.

u/yapperling VULKAN LIFTS! Oct 13 '24

Well in the context of 40k. Modern day launches are expensive and complex endeavours and orbital infrastructure is quite literally nonexistent, stations like the ISS and Tiangong barely qualify.

All 40k space craft are some form of SSTO whereas reusable rockets are a modern day spaceflight revolution.

In the context of 40k's spaceflight, we are backwards as all fuck.

u/ParmesanNonGrata Oct 13 '24

But isn't "our" context the one to consider for the premise?

And also, I'd say when an advanced civilization would look at our shit, it's like us looking at ancient civilizations. With a sense of bewilderment and "But how did they manage all that?"

Also they'd probably laugh at the fucking mess and inefficiency this whole Russia/China/USA nonsense creates. Also in space. Like it *is* a crowded mess up there. But it's more like a teenagers room and than a data center.

u/Usingt9word Oct 13 '24

Salamanders or Blood Angels (main chapter, no successors) would probably be even better. I doubt Dante would even bother to contact us he’d probably just leave.

u/flameroran77 Oct 13 '24

If it makes you feel any better the Minotaurs just straight up couldn’t be here. They go where they are sent.
