Is this a post to try and find people like this? Yes, yes it is. Am I expecting anything to come from it? Nah, not really. Regardless, enjoy these memes!

How would my "he who hunts monsters" alternate heresy go?
loyalists: Guilliman, Ferrus Manus, Sanguinius, Mortarion, Dorn, Corax, Magnus, Angron, Khan
Traitors: Horus, Vulkan, Lorgar, Fulgrim, Curze, Perturabo, Leman, and the Arch-traitor Lion 🙂
α/Ω: Alpha legion is still the fricking alpha legion.
How alternate heresy 2 came to be: skipping all the 1s that are on the "same" side as in canon. Vulkan got tricked into Nurgle's garden, Leman got so mad and furry that he fell to Khorn, and the monsters on Lion's home world had more of an æffect on him allowing chaos the seep through the cracks. as for Loyalists, the emperor helped Morty kill the necromancer, Magnus was less rant-y while Russ was more angy, and Angron wasn't attacked by the Eldar but was instead semi-raised by them (With an army of eldar and gladiators, angron overthrew the high-riders and smashed all their totally not khorne stuff).
I should mention there was a climactic showdown between Leman and Angron, think their cannon fight in reverse, but the red angel absolutely scares the wolf piss out of the khornate vikings.
Lucius: like in canon
bjorn the fell handed: Khorn
Tu'Shan: Nurgle... this hurt me to type
"Cypher": leads the 'angels purified' chapter of loyalist marines
Maloghurst: Tzeenche
Azrael: undivided

Time Traveller: Moves a Chair
The Timeline:
It is the 41st Millennium. And humanity has been betrayed
For more than a hundred centuries the Once Emperor's treachery has crippled the Imperium of Man. He is the Master of Chaos, one among the five who would see the mortal galaxy burn in the name of his triumph. Master of the Eye of Terra and commanding the might of unending daemonic legions, he is the reaper to whom all damned souls owe their fealty. Fuelled by the slaughter of a thousand followers each day to stave off the wound inflicted by Blessed Mortarion.
Yet even in his unfinished state, the Once Emperor plagues the Imperium with his eternal hunger for power. Mighty battlefleets are forced to wage war against daemon-vessels sent forth the the name of his Eternal Crusade, their way guided only through the unending sacrifice of Targutai Yesugei and his kin. Vast armies battle across unaccounted worlds, fighting to stem the tide of the lost and damned spilling forth from Damned Terra. Greatest among these are the Templars Astartes, the Thunder Legionaries, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Army and countless planetary defence forces, the ever-vigilant Wardens and the tech-shamans of the Cult Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and worse.
To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in an age without hope, without reason, and where sacrifice is not simply required but demanded. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war.
There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
TL:DR - I got bored out of my mind waiting for people. After trying and failing to think how Frankenstein might have played out with a few differences, and then trying to do a version of 2000 Leagues Under the Sea which wasn't just aping Alan Moore's work, this popped into my head.

A world not yet calling itself Terra. The Western Front, 916.M2.
An experiment for me in a lot of ways - writing a different style, using canon NL characters, fitting them into a historical AU, using a twist ending. Done in part as a test run for an original vampire-related project that I'm considering setting in a similar time period. Enjoy! 🦇

Why do alternate history authors always assume No Reformation = Middle Ages forever? No Reformation means no Counter-Reformation, i.e. decadent neoclassical popes and cardinals pouring money into arts and sciences.
I don't know, because that doesn't make sense even on its own terms. Surely No Reformation means Renaissance Forever...
Also, even without the Reformation, at some point some king is going to get into a fight with the Pope and manage to get Gallicanism or a revived Conciliarism over on the ultramontanists and make it stick. It's just the law of large numbers.

ok i have a lot of thoughts and headcanons about an alternative heresy where the loyalists go traitor (like everyone does)
anyway this is an idea for Mr. Iron Hands
no matter what, Ferrus gets beheaded. sorry, it's just inevitable. however this time around, the head is recovered. overcome with grief, the Iron Hands attempt to keep the head alive through any means of dark technology known and unknown to man. little do they know, they failed. unknowingly, they begin worship of a minor warp power that seeks to novelly spread itself across the materium since it's warp presence is too weak. que irons hands carrying around USBs and uploading the spark of the malign intellect everywhere they go, including within themselves

I've been obsessing over the idea of Horus ascending to godhood as the Dark King and becoming the fifth chaos god. How fucking cool would that have been? The warp spills into real space and humanity spends the next ten thousand years fighting to survive in space-hell. I can't get the idea out of my head, and what makes it all the worse is knowing that it isn't going to happen.

Just a little thing, nothing too crazy :3

“You are no brother of mine.
You have betrayed your bonds of fidelity to our father, and moreover, to humanity.
You have assailed my sons with ceaseless attack. From the rear. From within. From front and all flanks.
You have bombarded them with chemical munitions in the manner of a coward.
With four times their numbers have you assailed them, and with four times the losses have I repulsed you each and every time.
But worse than all of this, most insidious, most heinous list of crimes is this: you have done so without once facing me in battle, without once leading your men, and the turncoats from within my own Legion, against me. You have dishonored both the loyal and disloyal within the armies here arrayed.
And for this, most of all, will I make you suffer.
Run, Horus Lupercal.
I will harry you across the stars. I will break your cities. I will salt your fields. I will drown your sons, your daughters, your retainers, your very servants, in blood. Still, I will not cease.
Run, Horus Lupercal.
No wall will stop me. No fleet of warships. No towering Titan. Not even the hand of your fickle God-Things.
I will wipe the galaxy from every trace of your filth. I will throw down your monuments and high places. I will burn every trace of you from this reality, and the next.
I will exterminate your sons. I will murder, butcher, hunt, and excoriate them to the final generation until only those who refuse your treacherous actions will I spare, and this shall I do only to bring you further misery.
And when I am finished, Horus Lupercal, then will we meet. And then will the repayment of your debt be met out. You will feign bravery, but you will fear. You will feign numbness, but you will suffer unimaginable pain.
I am the Emperor’s Warhound. I am the Lord of the Red Sands.
I will be your oblivion.
Accept my last brotherly kindness:
Run.”
- Final Transmission of the Loyal Primarch Angron to the Arch-Traitor Horus after the Istvaan Atrocity, M32

do some skaven worship the four powers?
Tumblr media
" Yes-yes. Many skaven, only natural-logical there would be heretics. Not many interested in Bloodhound-thing or Breeder-thing-- well, no-no, many lesser-lower ranked males interested in The Great Breeder. But it is Nurglitch who challenges the Horned One the most-most. Nurglitch! Did you know the Plaguelords of Pestilens take-wear his name in places of their own?"
Tumblr media
" It is practically open heresy! His name, his magics, the grey ratkin born-bred into their ranks even have Antlers like the Plague God's daemons!"
