comment
Miles Gloriosus: Subverted. The other Stormcasts initially dismiss Hamilcar as a braggart and a fool, and his insistence people should have heard of him is treated as a joke although one of them admits his name rings a faint bell. His swagger gets him in to see the Boss, but he gets his butt kicked in (almost) every fight. Right up until he gets serious. Hamilcar is an existing character with his own series of stories and really did all those heroic feats; his reputation for them just isn't what he thinks it is.

comment
Delighting in Riddles: The captured Emperor's Child, Jaidas, gives vague information on the nature of Lucius. Chaplain Liminas demands that he stops this and gives them a straight answer. Unfortunately for them, Jaidas doesn't which leaves them fully unaware of the source of Lucius' immortality. This gets Judiciar Domisor eventually transforming into Lucius for having killed the latter.

Ambiguous Situation: An Abbott in the same escape craft as the family soon discovers that the latter are Genestealer Cultists, along with the rest of the escapees. He is then injected with a green substance. It's unknown if he's being injected with a poison or a sedative. Or given the likelihood that the cultist who injected him might be a Biophagus, he might even be injected with the Genestealer infection.

Only Sane Man
 Hammer and Bolter / int_24321e44
comment
Only Sane Man: Surprisingly, a Chaos Marine can be one. The one with tusks, named Kreld, is rather cautious and constantly questions the nature of the situation he is in, compared to his overconfident and eager peer with power claws. He notes that the Drukhari ships are not part of the original mass of destroyed ships, wonders how said Drukhari are still alive inside despite their ships having signs of extreme age, and questions how a light still has power despite the wreck being millennia old. All of this foreshadows the true nature of the space hulk.

Failure Is the Only Option: Trazyn gleefully explains to Hesiod that he and his squad are not prisoners. All they have to do to escape their Stable Time Loop prison is to not enter the Labyrinth. However, even if they do free themselves or never enter the Labyrinth in the first place, Abaddon is likely to kill or torture Hesiod and his squad for returning empty handed.

comment
Hidden Depths: Despite the Mechanicus' doctrine of cold logic and reasoning, after the Tech-Priest murders the lone guardsmen for his bionic arm to repair her Kastelan's damaged leg, she justifies what she just did to her Kastelan as necessary in a somewhat somber tone, implying that she does feel some amount of guilt. By the end of the episode, she sacrifices a very precious STC just to fully repair the severely damaged Kastelan after a battle with the Orks. Her justification that she was never going to get the thing off the planet without the Kastelan anyway gets greeted by some apparent skepticism by the machine.

Divine Intervention: The story of Saint Josephine has it that she sacrificed herself in a last stand to prevent an army of daemons from overruning her convent. In her last moments, she prayed for the Emperor to give her strength, and the Emperor answered by turning her into a living saint. And as a saint, she is known to give her power during times of great need. Sister Elena gives a dying Agatha the Sword of Saint Josephine, and Agatha is imbued with the Saint's power, allowing her to incinerate all the cultists in holy light.

Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Ephisis' plan mainly runs on it. How dare he attack a such heavily guarded Imperium beacon with just one ship? Because it was foretold his mission will be a success. So he tries, and easily succeeds. He just needs to kill some of his soldiers who don't believe in this reasoning, and to bring a sacrifice to help Nex takes care of the hardest part.

I Let You Win
 Hammer and Bolter / int_35566274
comment
I Let You Win: Seeing that Lucius is accompanied by only two chaos marines, and attacking the Exorcists heavily guarded and heavily defended Fortress Monastery is tantamount to suicide, Lucius' plan to enter the Fortress Monastery is simple but ingenious. When his group are attacked by the Excorcists, he half-heartedly duels the Chaplain and Judiciar before getting killed. Counting on his resurrective immortality, he slowly reforms himself into the body of his killer, the Judiciar, that allows him access to the Fortress Monetary without the occupants knowing long enough for him to finish his objective.

Batman Gambit
 Hammer and Bolter / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: Hamilcar manages to save the Sigmarite city with a rather elaborate plan. First he goes to the invading Orruk warboss' camp and makes a wager: If he will defeat Warboss Urgarrk in battle, then he and his forces will leave. If Hamilcar is defeated, then Hamilcar will name Urgarrk the greatest Warboss to have ever lived and spread his reptuation across the mortal realms. However, Urgarrk wants to test how mighty Hamilcar is, so he pits him against his boyz. With the exception of the first challenge, Hamilcar is defeated each time, but each time afterwards he requests another bout whilst increasing the wager. First he offers his gryph-hound, Crow, then his armor, and then the secret of reforging if Urgarrk defeats him. The last one has Hamilcar slaying Urgarrk and proclaiming himself the Orruks boss...Then he makes the same offer that he made to Urgarrk to the rest of the horde, but demands that they all prove themselves. This causes the entirety of the Orruk Waaagh! to fight amongst themselves, thus allowing the Sigmarites to safely evacuate.

Worthy Opponent: When Ghazghkull captures Yarrick and makes him a prisoner, Ghazghkull reckons that perhaps he overestimated Yarrick as an adversary. But when Yarrick makes an escape attempt that results in the deaths of several orks, Ghazghkull returns his equipment and gives him an imperial space shuttle for him to return to imperial space. Ghazghkull acknowledges that Old Bale Eye still has spunk in him, as Yarrick's escape attempt fully solidified him in the eyes of Ghazghkull as a worthy opponent.

Body Horror: Suffering a transformation by Nurgle's power is this in the most horrific way imaginable. How bad is it? Let's just say, it starts with the torso splitting open to reveal a huge, gaping maw and ends with the still (barely) cognizant head being devoured by the body. It says a lot when the extra eyes popping up alls over the body are perhaps the least disturbing part.

comment
Breather Episode: This episode comes after Plague Song, and compared to the latter which was filled to the brim in Body Horror, Squick and resulted in a downer ending, Double or Nothing is more light-hearted and comedic in tone.

comment
Asshole Victim: Considering the nature of the Drukhari, and that the story is following a set of Black Legion Chaos Terminators, the fact remains that neither one is deserving of sympathy, and the audience is probably happier knowing two sets of evil characters are stuck in a time loop they cannot escape from unless they never enter, and they are seemingly unable to avoid doing so because of their pride, especially in Hesiod's case (And knowing Aeldari of any kind, their racial pride prevents them from seeing logic pretty frequently).

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: The cryptek attempts to bargain with the chaos terminators in that he will reveal the location of an Aeldari artifact in exchange for his life. Hesiod refuses his offer, but Abaddon arrives and demands to know the location of artifact. After the cryptek reveals the artifacts location, under the belief that they have a deal, Abaddon shoots off the cryptek's head. Though it is later revealed that the cryptek was Trazyn in disguise, and that he was never in any real danger.

Took a Level in Badass: Eoin starts out as meek and frightened of the battle going on around him. Which makes sense because, and he himself explains, he's just a messenger rather than a professional soldier. By the end of the episode, he becomes more courageous and confident after killing a few Tyranids and even manages to save sergeant Harlan from a hormagaunt.

Foreshadowing: Even before the plot twist, there were hints of it. One example being the lieutenant—who was sympathetic to the family—not only had a detonator, but also explosives being set up in many areas beforehand. Even ignoring the frigid climate, all of them were wearing headwear to cover their Genestealer crest. At one point, a Lictor notices the family but ignores them. And the Lictor also had a vantage point where it got a good view of the family and the baby. Seeing that the baby was an infant Genestealer, the Lictor recognized them as Genestealer cultists and moved on.

Continuity Nod: Despite the fact that the family along with several other escapees are genestealer cultists, they still intend on escaping the world from the Tyranid invasion. This is a reminder that, although the cult serve as a Tyranid vanguard to weaken the planet's defenses, not all of them are on board in being consumed as biomass. Nor are they all fully aware of the true nature of their supposed "Gods".

Fate Worse than Death: The Aeldari spirit stones are meant to contain their souls when they die. Should an Aeldari die without a spirit stone or if the spirit stone is broken, then their souls are condemned to go to Slaanesh, the Chaos God of Excess. Many of the spirit stones that Iocarus finds amongst the dead Aeldari are shown to be broken. He ultimately manages to save three spirit stones, one of which contains the soul of his mother.

Too Dumb to Live: There is a scene where a squad of striking scorpions are confronted by a redemptor dreadnought. Seeing that this foe is beyond their skills, as the striking scorpions are not specialized in anti-armor, you'd expect that they would quickly retreat. But no! They just stand there and futilely shoot at it. This works as well as you'd expect, as they are quickly slaughtered without so much as scratching the dreadnought.

Armies Are Evil: Imperial Guard are shown to have an intense disdain for civilians, to the point of firing on them for the "crime" of asking to be let onto the evacuation ships. It's clear that the Guard isn't there to protect the planet or save civilians, but just to protect the few VIPs they deem worthy of survival. This becomes a case of Extremist Has A Point as the refugee family along with various escapees turned out to be Genestealer Cultists.

Who Wants to Live Forever?: Discussed by Trazyn. As he explains to Hesiod, his Necron form allows him to continue his hobby of collecting various artefacts and lifeforms for eternity. But he also partly does this to keep himself from growing mad from boredom, as there is only so much an immortal can do before they start to grow weary of their eternal lives. The "Groundhog Day" Loop that the Chaos Terminators suffer from is just one of his scenarios to keep himself entertained.

The Starscream: Ephisis takes over the Death Guard Warband from Morior due to the latter having failed in his conquests one too many times. The fact that the nurgling, Nex, the herald of Nurgle abandons Morior for Ephisis further proves Ephisis's point that a change of leadership is in order.

Mercy Kill: Harlan delivers the Emperor's Peace to one unfortunate guardsman being eaten by rippers. When a horrified Eoin condemns her for the act, Harlan strikes back that the guardsman was beyond saving and he would have done the same had she been in the same situation.

Earn Your Happy Ending: Njal's aspirant is tested by being tasked with retrieving a fang of one of Fenris' deadliest creatures. He nearly dies in the attempt, but makes it back to Njal with the fang in hand. Although he is still to face even more grueling trials that await him, the ending Time Skip reveals that he has passed them all and has fully become a Space Marine.

Licking the Blade: Lucius does this after finding and killing Jaidas with his sword. He notes that the blood is "disappointingly bitter".

comment
The Shadow Knows: The Prefect is seemingly just a mutated cultist of Tzeentch. By the end of the episode, his shadow is shaped like a Lord of Change, suggesting that the Prefect was actually a Greater Daemon of Tzeentch in human disguise.

comment
Evil Is Petty: The reason why Lucius goes through the trouble of trying to get inside the Excorcist's Fortress Monastery and reach his captured comrade? It is because Jaidas insulted Lucius by calling him a "joke to the legion, and a bad one at that", and Lucius is determined to kill Jaidas for that insult.
