Circus of Humorous & Humiliating Arguments Part 5: Diamonds are fleeting. Stupid lasts forever

Thunder banged in the midnight sky, and heaving earthquakes ripped ever-widening cracks in the ground, toppling what few structures of Tizca remained standing.

The epicentre of this destruction was Magnus and Russ, and Ahriman watched the two titans wrestle with the bitter enmity reserved only for those who had once called each other friend. Such a contest of arms was the most desperate thing Ahriman had ever seen. He wanted to rush forward and remind them of their former kinship, but to intervene in such a planet-shaking conflict would be suicide.

A Thousand Sons pg. 402

Despite that his brother burned him and smashed him down time and again with his arcane power, Russ rose up once more, bloody but undaunted. Minutes or hours after they had begun, for time itself had begun to fray at the fury of their battle at the centre of the rether tempest.

Do you have the context/source for all of this?

Ferrus:
The legends of the roaming clans, taught from father to son throughout the ages, revolve around the early exploits of Ferrus, tales of fantastic acts of strength and endurance. No one could match his strength of arm, try as he might to find a worthy opponent. He sought out every physical challenge that he could, always returning victorious. According to one often recounted mythic tale, he once challenged a Storm Giant to a competition of strength. The giant lifted a mountain between his hands and set it back down a mile away. The giant's laugh died as Ferrus lifted the entire mountain range onto his back, carrying it to a neighbouring island. The humbled giant was never seen again.

The most famous heroic story of Ferrus was his titanic battle against Asirnoth, the Great Silver Wyrm. This is recounted in the Canticle of the Travels, an epic poem of unknown origin that is still taught to Clan children at their parent's knee. He had stalked the great beast for days through the legendary Land of Shadows - the fearful land of the ancients, a place of great fear and mystery. This place, long since lost, was said to be a land of metal and stone relics of giant proportions, remnants of a forgotten age. The ghost-spirits of the clans are said to roam there once they leave the world of the living. The Canticle describes the monstrous creature as having skin made of living metal that was impervious to harm. Try as he might, Ferrus could not pierce the metal hide of the beast, his fists pummelling harmlessly against it. Fighting the creature for days on end, across continents and seas, Ferrus remained undaunted, confident of his own abilities. He eventually slew the great beast by holding the writhing creature submerged in a lava flow, enduring horrific pain, but bearing it stoically. When he finally removed his arms from the lava, the Wyrm was no more. His hands however were encased in the same living metal that the creature's skin was made of, a metal that was as flexible as flesh, as strong as the hardest ceramite. It is known that myths involving Ferrus and his metal hands precede the Canticle of Travels, but only in the Canticle is this explanation given as to how the metal came to be fused to his body.

They wailed in their dread for the fury of the storm seemed far from natural, and they felt certain the end of their world drew near. The terrible storm assaulted the land for a week and a day, so it is said, after which time an unearthly silence descended. The clans returned to the great council unsure what would come of such dire portents.

The next morning the doors to the great council were thrown wide and Ferrus strode in, esplendent in his magnificence. At his side walked a figure that stood as his equal, a radiant figure who awed the clansmen as much as Ferrus had always done. The very air was said to crackle with the combined power that exuded from the pair, and the bond between them was immediately apparent.

What actually occurred when the two Divine beings met is unknown. The myths surrounding the meeting of these two most powerful and heroic of figures revolve around a clash of wills and power that tore the land asunder. Many of the myths relate to how when Ferrus saw the Emperor, he recognised in him an equal. He strode up the mountains to confront him, confident of his own abilities and wishing to test them against this personage of obvious power. In the ensuing conflict, the two godly beings were evenly matched in all ways, neither being able to better the other. The awesome confrontation of power devastated the landscape, shattering the very heavens and earth alike. Regardless of details, all the stories agree that when the two figures came down from the great northern mountains, the bond and mutual respect between them was unwavering.

Konrad:
According to the heretical handwritten chronicle of his lite, entitled simply The Dark. Konrad Curze's earliest memory was of descending from the heavens in a crackling ball of light to the night-shrouded planet of Nostramo. His embryonic form impacted on the dense cityscape of Nostramo Quintus, smashing though countless levels of debris and mouldering architecture, through the planet's crust and into the geosphere before finally coming to a halt near the liquid core of the planet. His descent left a scar in the virtually inviolable adamantium strata of Nostramo, the result of the supernaturally resilient Primarch's violent birth into a world that knew no light. The cratered pit his descent had carved into the planet was closed oft and regarded with fear and suspicion. Theoretically, the only way the Primarch could have reached the surface was to have swum through molten metal, borne upwards through volcanic vents to the surface. The Arcana Progenitum of Nostramo Quintus details the incident in vague, awkward terms:

"...a glowing child-form it was, crawled from the Pit onto the broken street, hissing molten metal dripping from its limbs. It was a daemon, no less, with the body of an infant but the expression of an old man, its eyes black and cold as obsidian."

In The Dark King short novel, Konrad once again mentions that the huge crack in his planet was caused by his fall and then he continued to destroy it by aiming many shots with his ships, I do not pass that quote because I have that novel specifically in Spanish.

I'm not even sure why U-Olga's black holes are being brought up.

They just need to bring up how ORT is far more powerful than U-Olga, the same person who LB Zeus was worried of (iirc).
The same LB Zeus with Anti-Planet, Anti-Star System, and Anti-Space-time destruction capabilities.
Click to expand...

They know that... they just won't.
U-Olga unleashes one of her devastating Black Holes on Lostbelt ORT and did jack and fucking shit.
What they are doing is wanking the fuck out of Camazotz and completely ignoring how he defeated ORT(It was not just him, but his Civilization and Malla then having to force it to sleep by pretending it never lost it's heart) despite all context stating Camazotz never wants to fight ORT again despite the loss of it's heart... which does not speak that Camazotz can win at all but to SB, it does.

They also ignore that to your last Statement, Ningikal summon thousands of Gugulanna legs to stomp on ORT... the only thing that got "destroyed" was the equivalent of ORT's Cartilage as it did nothing to it's main body whatsoever... and those Gugulanna legs would 100% be on par(if not far stronger) than what they are pushing with Jain.
 


It's legit funny as shit seeing Sheldon dismiss this as not "acting like an actual Black Hole" but the irony of it is that it's actually a realistic depiction of a Black Hole because while Black Holes do have a radius of sucking shit in, it's nowhere near as huge until you start getting close to it and both Nolan and the ship is VASTLY far away enough that it wouldn't affect them a huge deal on it's own(As it completely misses how much Gravity exerts itself the closer you are to the core for a Planet and when you are further away from it.

EDIT: To put my point into place, it's been WELL known that if a Black Hole of the same mass and density as the Sun was to appear in our Solar System in the exact same spot? Nothing would change because the typical level of Gravitational Exertion would not change(Outside of us freezing to death but the point still stands). The entire Solar System wouldn't fall into it, so why the fuck would Nolan when he's still not close enough yet to exert it's full force?

It's just more reasons why there is no actual intelligence from Spacebattles, not anymore. It's just Reddit 2.0 where as long as you say what people think is convincing, that's all that matters.
U-Olga's Black Holes aren't Real Black Holes? Then they don't get anything despite explicitly being stated to only be pseudo in that they aren't natural Black Holes and recently been stated to be even more efficient than the actual thing(The same thing unironically stated for Oberon's Abyssal Wyrm also operating better than a RL Black Hole).

Because SB is the type of place that don't give a shit actually being fair and just, it's basically Reddit as a forum which is why you can have people just say who wins and who loses and how they are right and wrong and they just believe them.
You even have people like Mook, Gojira and Siriel who can spout endless nonsense and it will still get repped out the ass because people will take anything they say because it's what they want to hear.

That reminds me how someone on SB once said it wouldn't hurt much if a tank drover over you, and I still have no words.

Honestly, you could make a list of all of the dumbest shit a single SB member said and just display it in a thread and they would act like all of it is true because they got people agreeing with them... as if those people also didn't just want to believe what they wanted to or just didn't give a shit and just wanted people siding with them because :jordangif
