The Elder Scrolls: 40k

Post » Sun May 13, 2012 12:17 am

Warhammer is Warhammer, TES is TES. The point was just to get across the idea of a darker space fantasy within the Elder Scrolls universe.

Anyways, I got much more positive responses on other forums. I suppose I'm not all that unsurprised that a Beth forum would be resistant to changing up the formula given the amount of qq for even the clearly positive improvements in the TES franchise.

It's got nothing to do with not wanting to change up the formula.

Us lot on the Beth forums are much more intelligent than most forums, so we know a bad idea when we see one :)

TES with 40k universe - Aw hell no
A 40k game made with TES like mechanics - HECK YES!

I really want a 40k RPG, exchange bows for Bolters, Shootas the like, blades and blunts for ... Well futuristic blades and blunts, and spells could be like Psyker abilities and riding your horse for miles, for flying your space sheep between planets.
No way in hell I'd play that either. I don't want to have to hit a Gretchin two dozen times with my chain axe to kill it because the TES level scaling increased his hitpoints to be ten times that of my World Eater.

There is this already, called warhammer 40k. Some races died, unfortunately, and some new were discovered.

So no thanks.

At least not using crossbows and spears make more sense now.

I have pondered this idea. If anything, I would like to see it as a book within the next game. Would be an interesting read.

As for an actually game, I don't think it would work too well.

Stars are actually holes in the ether

Yeah, I learned this when I posted else where. From what was posted, the moons are real at least. So something could be going on either of the two moons.

I think most forums think they're the most intelligent forum.

No thank you. Sound like maybe a mod, but I don't really want to have it forced on me.

Nobody forces you to purchase video games. That's one of the silliest things I've heard in a while.

Races of Nirn have already been to the moon and beyond.

Imperials had the Imperial Manonauts.
Vivec made Vehkships
Dwemer went beyond aetherius into the outer realms.(This is why Yagrum never disappeared along with the rest of the dwemer, he was in the outer realms)
The Altmer had the Sunbirds of Alinor.


It's not completely farfetched. There's nothing particularly of use in TES space though. You could hang out around aetherius and collect a bunch of magic or creatia if you wanted I suppose.
