Spoiler: Because I, Cato Sicarius (click to show/hide)

Never heard of 'em.

[Twinwolf]

I mean they're just acting as a normal cat would.

[Neonivek]

So how do Ork Teleporters work?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Poorly.

[Rolan7]

The ideal cat from which all cats are but pale reflections.

So how do Ork Teleporters work?

"Belief" is the lame answer which belies the absurd amount of orky enthusiasm (AKA "Waagh") necessary to peer-pressure a water heater into rifting time and space.

[Rolan7]

Oops I'm not supposed to be posting, even (especially) weird stuff.

[Tack]

Oh man, I find the chaos colour wheel equally exasperating.
Tzeentch hates Nurgle and Khorne hates Slaanesh?

Frankly I think it should be a rotation.
Tzeenth > Nurgle > Slaanesh > Khorne

Tzeentch hates nurgle for previously explained poor reasons.
Nurgle hates Slaanesh because beauty should be ephemeral
Slaanesh hates Khorne because he's a condescending killstealer
Khorne > Tzeentch because duh

[Egan_BW]

Tzeentch hates Nurgle because one is the most chaosy chaos god and the other is the least chaosy chaos god. Change vs stagnation.

[nenjin]

Likewise, Khorne should hate Tzeentch because sorcery is for pussies, and Slaanesh should hate Nurgle because he's pretty much the anti-boner.

[Tack]

Yes but if each god hates two other gods that would make multidaemon lists kinda difficult to run.

[Egan_BW]

I prefer to think of them as the four corners of a good old DnD alignment chart. Except the chaos is implied, and none of them can really be described as "lawful" or "good" most of the time...

[Andres]

Khorne is manly. Slaanesh is girly. That's why they dislike each other.

[Grim Portent]

The gods hate their opposite for a few reasons, but they ultimately boil down to their narrative concepts.

Tzeentch is hope, change, the weaving of strands of fate together, Nurgle is despair, stagnation and the severing of fate's strings. I would compare them to Norns/Fates from Norse and Greek mythology, Tzeentch weaves strings and Nurgle cuts them, but Tzeentch does not want them cut and Nurgle hates how Tzeentch tries to defy entropy.

Khorne is honour, simplicity and brutal violence, Slaanesh is devious, frivolous and showboaty. Khorne hates Slaanesh for demeaning the concept of war by perverting it with petty hedonism and showmanship, Slaanesh hates Khorne for his brutish functionality and lack of sophistication. Like a viking raider and a victorian dilettante who fences as a hobby.

Secondly then, Khorne hates Tzeentch and Nurgle hates Slaanesh, though not as much as they hate their opposite. Khorne hates magic because it's trickery and not real martial skill, and thus hates Tzeentch, who hates him for his anti-magic powers. Nurgle hates Slaanesh for his artificial and cultivated nature, and Slaanesh hates him for his uncontrolled and random aesthetic. Compare the manicured gardens of Slaanesh to the twisting swamp that is the garden of Nurgle.

[Loud Whispers]

Khorne is manly. Slaanesh is girly. That's why they dislike each other.

khorne clubhouse, dude gods like khaine only. NO SLAANESH COOTIES

[Teneb]

There, Khorne and his bros spend time doing manly things, like fighting, eating meat, flexing and grooming their beards.
