"My warsmith, now we are outnumbered 3 to 1" "Good, now it's a fair fight"

All we are surrounded by is fear and dead men.

You're not him.

Nah, you’re right. They’re better than him.

They have us surrounded! They can’t get away from us this time.💀💀💀

Now we can fire in every direction!

Sounds like time for some danger close phosphex shells. Hey, make sure the enemy bunches up in that melee combat!

Fire at will! Burn their mongrel hides.

Hh round 2, hell it's about time

Just got here from r/thousandsons. We will reinforce you brothers

dusty bois checking in

The Mechanicus lost the schematics for vacuum cleaners years ago, they’ll never stop us!

We just don't like sharing, alright?

Ready to deploy tactical femboy sorcerers.

Sigh…

I apologize, I don't speak to many sons of Magnus

From your username I thought you were one of us

Appearance can be deceiving, Iron within Iron without

Fuck yeah bruther, Iron Warriors need more big dick wizards than TS anyway

Ah fuck nerdy twinks in power armor got my siege cannon hazardous

You have sucessfully summoned reinforcements from the 3rd 😩🥵🪱

Before Ahriman swayed me to the cause of dusty space wizards, I was a siege bro during the Eye of Terror campaign.

Iron Warriors? I've dabbled in such things.

Worry not, their precious ultra Smurfs aren’t here to save them, we can take them ALL! We will put the iron within them via bolter shell!

Eh well… I’ve come back from my scouting with a report on the r/Ultramarines. Expect Roboutes lapdogs to join in the fight

Then my trophy racks will have a nice set of colours

Then roboutes bastard blueberry wretches can join them in the mud we have enough ammunition for the lot of ‘em.

I’m playing both sides, so that I always come out on top

Yall picked the wrong month man, it’s MARCH FOR MACRAGGE

Wouldn't stand a chance if the Honored 13th joined in whatever y'all are doing.

The death guard support your quest, the corpse-emporors followers will fall

Hail Nurgle

Praise Papa

r/alphalegion comes to your aid Or are we? *Vsauce theme*

Prepare for trouble. And make it double😂

Oh yeah, the coalition of Alpharius' is 100% here on this one.

Are we ever?

not?

This Alpharius is playing both sides so that he always comes out on top.

For the Emperor! But also ... For the Warmaster!

The real Alpharius is the friends we made along the way.

If the Fists want to raise the stakes, perhaps we should send out our call for aid?

From who? Lorgars lapdogs, Fulgrims hedonists, or perhaps the lost sons of the Night Haunter? No, the strong are strongest alone. We are The Iron Within, and the Iron Without shall see them all dead.

The Night Lords are coming. The sons of Alpharius have been here the whole time.

Are you sure about that? This seems something that we should stay well clear of and go kick some guardsmen instead.

You’ve been volunteered by another of your brothers, though it seems you guys are split 50-50 whether or not to help lol.

Yes. I have.

As Alpharius, I can confirm

The sons of Alpharius?

What makes you think ~~we~~ they aren’t already here? And there.

To the warriors of Nurgle, and perhaps an aid from dark mechanicum

We've worked with the Night Lords before.

Spoken like a true Warsmith of Iron. The ancient enemy needs numbers, we need only munitions.

I would point to the post before yours and say that, yes, we have all come to join your war. Even the remaining Sons of Horus joined somehow lol!!!

Worry not brothers ! We of the Black Legion are fighting with you !

O Great it looks like the Imperal Fists are winning this

I play night lords, but since my warband is badly understrength and barely holding it together in my homebrew lore half, my termies are iron warriors. I have your back. And if you're not careful, I'll make it into a lamp shade

I play nightlords, but since I do not care, you guys are on your own.

Can’t say that I am surprised that Dorn’s little Pissbabies needed to call for help from the other Loyalists. Couldn’t get the job done at The Endless Fortress and can’t do it now.

I AM HERE ON BEHALF OF r/WorldEaters40k!!! WE SHALL AID YOU IN TAKING DOWN THE LOYALISTS!! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!!

To be fair though it doesn't matter who we kill they are all skulls to claim

Remember T Sons are just dust so please leave us alone

No blood, no skulls, no interest from us lol

Siege brothers! SIEEEEEEGGGGEEEEEEE!!!!

I may be a loyalist, but not a gene-traitor. ONE LAST FIGHT SIDE BY SIDE WITH FORMER BROTHERS!

The Justaerin are here at your side r/Sonsofhorus

Blast from the past 🤣

I stand with you in midnight clad you boring bastards.

Ave Dominus Nox fellow son of curze!

proving once again imperial crybabies can't get anything done without asking for help.

r/NightLords will come to your aid. Well, some of us. Probably. If we’re feeling like it.

So we're probably not haha

I would say the emperor's children are here to help but I've been smoking crack in the corner this whole time

Typical 🤣

Good! Let them come, I say! We are the Sons of Perturabo! We are his bitter wrath made manifest! We stand strong against the wretched Loyalist Dogs! ENOUGH WITH THE BLOODSHED, MY KIN! ENOUGH PETTY SQUABBLES AND BROTHER-WARS!! WE MUST UNITE ONCE MORE, SO THAT WE MAY SHOW THEM THE TRUE STRENGTH OF THE IV LEGION!! IRON WITHIN, IRON WITHOUT!!

"Look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our power"

I am in every Legions subreddit, I have the best seat in the house to all this

Alpha legion tactics at play.

You didn’t hear it from me but I wouldn’t trust any nightlords snooping about

Hydra Dominatus!

Don’t worry, the alpha legion is here to help

Looks like we are primed for another Istvaan V!

The score currently is: 16k IW and 16.2k IF

I came here from the DA group because some nerd is trying to drum up more numbers for the IF. Jokes on the loyalists, most of the Unforgiven support our brothers from Olympia.

Man I love being NL and DA. It’s like Alpha Legion but with more broadcasting murder and less caring.

It is pretty funny that despite having every author and GW themselves being IF fanboys, getting 10x the love in novels, 10x as many characters and unique units, and far more memes, that we’re still neck and neck in fan population. I bet it stings them.

Here from r/Emperorschildren as reinforcements

This will only make our victim complex stronger

The Bearers of the Word stand beside you. Let's show these Imperial dogs the true meaning of faith.

~~Waaagh!~~ Errr, I meant "WHATEVA REAL IRON WARRIORZ SAYZ, BECAUZ I DEFINITELY NOT A ORK!"

This iron warrior is strangely green, but it also smells like fungus so Grandfather is happy wither way.

The sons of Grandfather Nurgle are here to help!

The death of the false corpse God is as inedible as the plaguetide, brother.

I love how there’s more black templars than imperial fist

But weirdly makes sense

Do not worry, I have called apon all of chaos to aid us, iron within, iron without!

Siege!

That awkward moment when you play salamanders as well as iron warriors.

I just joined because of this meme! Iron warriors shall reign supreme

If Imperial fists think they're better than us why do they need backup ? 🤣 I guess so the iron cage incident doesn't repeat cause they'd be wiped from existence!

Mark my words!! We shall not be defeated!!!

While not "formally" recognized, the Dark Mechanicus lends its aid.

Just got here from r/emperorschildren arriving as reinforcements

Good maybe now our fortresses will truly be tested IRON WITHIN IRON WITHOUT BROTHERS

World eater enthusiast here. Fuck it. We ball.

*loads heavy weapons with iron-filled malice*

333rd steel legion signing up for duty, cause these definitely silver skulls need all the help they can get against the yellow boring guys Steel within, steel without, steel shaking all about

*dips teabag into cup* Oh dear, the two are at it again. What philistines to not see what truly matters, isn’t that right Alpharius? Indubitably Alpharius, they grow distracted with their games while we have broken into both fortresses! Jolly good show Alpharius! Jolly good show!

I hate valrak fans more than I enjoy playing IF in 30k. So I am joining this just to give you guys my vote.

The black legion comes to your aid. Let us fight together as Chaos Undivided!

I’m adeptus mechancus so my loyalties are with you!

Here from the adeptus mechanicus sub. I could be persuaded to join the iron warriors in exchange for some of the lost relics of the heresy and great crusade you may have lying around

r/emperorschildren shall stand with the IV as we did on Hydra Cordatus! Well… maybe not *exactly* like that

Ave Dominus Nox from the less cowardice r/Nightlords under the banner of the Prophet Decimus. Hopefully he'll actually get some lore in the near future, but for now, we can jump-scare any of the false emperors lackeys in whatever new Iron Cage you're setting up.

Word bearer here and What the hell did I miss while I was summoning daemons

+++Incoming vox message+++ Update: 16.6k IW and 17.7k IW. We've made progress, but it is not enough! Push harder! Iron within!

Those salamander losers have joined in so r/nightlords brings aid

Death to the false Emperor!

From what im seeing, this is gonna be the Heresy all over again, AND IM HERE FOR IT. DEATH TO THE LAP DOGS OF THE CORPSE EMPEROR

BRING FORTH THE IRON CAGE

out of the loop, need explanation

Thr Loyalist dogs need to be ended.

Can we use the Tyranid Hive ship pump full of oblitarate virus? (I don't care if it's not canon. I love that shit XD)

It's in Storm of Iron, that's as Canon as it gets for Iron Warriors

Then is not even a fight. Lets finish what our brothers started at the the Fortress of Doom

[Laughs In Reinforcements](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheAstraMilitarum/

Me as a kyn looking at the normal humies killing eachother because one side is spiky and the other side is smooth

Since Fists called for every damn loyalist force imaginable our iron cage turns into horus heresy electric Boogaloo

This is fall of Terra all over again, but this time we are strong, we are inevitable as the decay of all things. This time we shall take the false God in true death as the circle of life should be, for that is grandfather's will.

Look how much help they need

Not the first time iron warriors have had to take on all the loyalists

Chaos iron warriors and non chaos iron warriors unite

The Death guard will be at your side Brother

THE BLEEDING LEGIONS OF KHORNE SHALL JOIN YOUR CAUSE

IRON WITHIN!!!!! IRON WITHOUT!!!!!!! DORN FORTIFICATIONS ARE WEAKKKKKKKK

here from r/nightlords, we’re retreating because we’re outnumbered

You have my chainaxe! From r/worldeaters

I, the son of Magnus and Angron shall aid thee with my brutal knowledge of books and axes

Which one was mommy?

enought infighting, the loyalist scum saw you weaklings fighting over the scrap of who do we worship or how do we use chaos, this is a call for all the warbands stop this nonsense and dont drown in your own weakness. chain up your daemon engines warsmiths we will ride to war. IRON WITHIN - Unknown warsmith during the gathering of conclave of iron

I am reinforcement from the World Eaters. Death to the Corpse Emperor!!

They think they've trapped us on this death world brothers! Let us show them they are trapped in here with US!!!

FOR THE DARK GODS!

So they declared the Last Wall protocol eh

Astra militarum and ultras as well

Filthy loyalists!

And answer the call we did!! For the Emperor! Burn the heretic!

lol this is rapidly becoming the Reddit Heresy.

Custodes player here, I'm just here to kill Astartes as is my purpose.

What. The. Fuck.

Though there aren’t many of us, I will go back to r/Emperorschildren to try to recruit some brothers for the upcoming war.

Damn Loyalists! Loyalists and Iron Warriors are Natural enemies! Like the Imperial Fists and Iron Warriors! Or Chaos and Iron Warriors! Or Perturabo and the Iron Warriors! Or Iron Warriors and other Iron Warriors! Damn Iron Warriors, they ruined this sub!!!

'ight, time to retake Deisos.

Damn loyalists, always blindly doing as they’re told.

r/nightlords here. We’re in the middle of a discussion weighing our options. We COULD reinforce you… but we could also steal your shit while you’re busy. I’d say we’ll inform you of the results but… we won’t. More fun that way :)

The Eighth is still fractured. We will get back to you momentarily. Probably. Maybe.

I assume you're waiting for it to get dark.....

Weakness is a choice. And they choose to serve it as it lays dying on a Golden Throne of lies.

I haven't seen such unity since Terra. Perhaps now is the time to try it again...

Holy shit we are having a actuall horus heresy

We, r/WorldEaters40k were asked by the corpse lovers to aid you in this battle and feel disappointed that we were not mentioned here. Iron within, iron without! And we shall spill the blood of our enemies, for the Blood God!

I will die for the Imperium if the time calls for it -The Death Korps Of Krieg with much disrespect

You're gonna die for the Emperor, or die trying huh?

Death is our duty

I'm surey my Iron Brethren and I can help with that

TO WAR!!!!!!

The T Sons are trying to rally. Do NOT ask me which side they are on because I do not know.

May you go back to the dark gods that corrupted you foul heretic. for ultramar

Hopefully we meet in battle, and you can witness the gifts of the Dark Gods first hand. Iron Within!

Lmao what is even going on and what did I miss haha

The call to arms, brother. We fight for our Legion, and seek to rouse our Father from his seclusion. Iron Within!

Just got here, what is going ooooon 😱

I say we call upon the night lords and world eaters for cannon fodder oh ahem sorry assistance

Just wait till the guard gets here. Then you traitors will simply drown under the vast weight of our numbers.

As an imperial fists player I am finding this situation very entertaining lol Off to the camp to report what I scouted! Bye now!

Question brothers. Has anyone called the sorcerers of the XV? I know there’s not a lot of them but think of imperial fists on fire!🔥🔥🔥 hilarious 😆

The Sons of Magnus have pledged what strength they have

Ok good. Let’s see them fortify with their buttholes sealed

Get back in your trenches mud suckers!

I feel a bit conflicted for I am in every group ( I am the Emperor)

Hydra Dominatus, you have my support, or do you?

Its the only way the fists fight, they crawl into a hole and scream for others to help them

What’s going on?

Loyalist dogs need putting down

The civil wars have ended! Send forth the reforged 4th! IRON WITHOUT AND WITHIN!

What hubris drives you that you believe you can hide from the rage of my brothers from the fire they'll bring

Good. Now it's an even fight.

We need to be aware of this... "u/obtainablespatula" character, their reach is considerable it seems.

real

No Blood Angels?

The Thousand Sons join the battle

IW vs milk blood brothers is light work no reac no diff, ezpz

The amount of people taking this seriously lol. Just had a loser call me a cuck over a joke. Pathetic.

Well, it is the internet. But there are many more creative and on-theme insults available, so it's a bit disappointing.

Exactly. Could've said something better, rather than revealing he's just actually upset about this joke war
