Oh I remember those guys from Dark Heresy campaigns: they are basically what would happen if the Skaven bred with the Jews and colonized space. So basically utterly hilarious so long as you can stand the occasional backstab. And also occasionally had ridiculously good gear that no other race could or should have (veteran’s tip: NEVER let the Ad Mech player near them. It will end in binary rambling and holy fury. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.)
(In one campaign, in which btw I was the admech player and had as partners a sororitas, a heretek and an administratum that was far more of a heretek than the fucking heretek, we had an encounter with one of those... He just strait up sold a motherfucking STC to us and then proceeded to try to sell us A DAEMON ENGINE. For some context, we were on a mission trying to find said daemon engine because the guys on the ship had found chaos traces and wanted to destroy them, we had gone to him for info, he just strait up showed us the STC as soon as my character entered the door and after the following negotiation (because no fucking way an ad mech isn’t buying that) the sororitas remembered to ask him for the engine and he just went “oh, yes-yes, I have what you’re looking for. But I must warn you it’s very-greatly EXPENSIVE! *hand rubs as he shows AN EVER-MUTATING TANK BEARING THE SIGNS IF FUCKING CHAOS UNDIVIDED ALL OVER IT HE HAD STORED IN THE BACKROOM!*” that was something alright.

Hey Arch, I know this is a bit out of place but remember Valrak from one of your podcasts? He got in touch with THQ about Space Marine, now he's aiming for SEGA on twitter. I know that it's kinda hopeless to think that they might give a damn after their most recent 40k tittle flopped on it's head, but hey we might get a sequel at best and lose nothing at worst. I'd really love a new Space Marine, I'm sure you would too so spreading awareness and retweeting would be sweet. And of course, lovely video Arch- wouldn't have the lore interpreted any other way!

How to succesfully trade with a Stryxis: Step 1: Make a DETAILED list about the things you want which includes the things to operate und maintain the stuff. Step 2: Have an army of heavly armed bodyguards with you. Step 3: Once you have what you want get the fuck out before the Stryxis has stupid ideas! Step 4: Profit.
So, they absolutely HATE the eldar. So, hypothetically, if an imperial fleet of ships was trying to get some where and the quickest way was through there airspace, they would believe there airspace to be valuable because everyone else dose, if said imperial fleet was to offer to kill some eldar for them and take that nice old (utterly useless) imperial war ship (with everything inside it and fuelled) would they take that offer? as to them, kill eldar would be extremely valuable.
They aren't really the Skaven, the Hrud were meant to fill that role. They are basically the skeksis from the Dark Crystal movie, down to the fear and hatred of elves. Light beam weapons, war creatures, tearing out souls, its all in the movie.
When dealing with Stryxis. Always carry two guns. One to likely get their attention and want to trade. The other to speak the Stryxis' language of understanding the value of trading.

There should be an index army of these guys. I think it would be funny to see their war gear options for one of their infantry squads and it’s just every weapon from every army
The Stryxis don't take your life, they transaction it from you. And man Bullets and effort am I right? Heck I had to aim that time, you owe me 2 deaths really.

Naah. They tell the truth, fullstop. You just need to consider all the implications of that truth.
You just massively inspired me for a black market merchant in my pen and paper campaign :D
This video was basically a massive list of reasons to just shoot them and take what you wanted or needed of them after words. xD
They'll happily do the same back, though. And they have a bunch of really dangerous gear.
The exact reason you shoot first with your biggest guns you have good sir.
Bomb collars?? What is this? A brotherhood of steel fetchquest??
I wonder if these xenos have curly hair, big beaked noses and wear little hats
Does this mean you could cheat a Stryxis by implying you have the knowledge of a nearby Eldar shipping route?
So these guys are basically Blood Ravens in filthy xenos form
i feel like the stryxis and the orks get along swimmingly
This week I fell asleep to Arch’s videos and had a dream where Trazyn the Infinite stole my cat and left a note saying “thanks for the cat, bitch” :

Makes me think of sending a company of White Scars to "Negotiate" as many of their convoys as possible.

I always wondered if I was going to have to be a Necron fan, but nevermind all that. Strixian are now our Dog Skaven friendlies.
Arch the video actually opened with an add!
Cause its not over 40 mins he said vids over 40 mins would only get mid adds
Enslaving a Necron Lord will probably be the most valuable thing.
I'm honestly surprised the imperium actually engages in trade with them and not just shoots them in the face
Shooting them IS trade, though.
And mostly they trade with individual human groups like Rogue Traders.
This is an...interesting demonstration of the Subjective Theory of Value.
When dealing with Stryxis. Always carry two guns. One to likely get their attention and want to trade. The other to speak the Stryxis' language of understanding the value of trading.

can it be that old 40k lore had a crush for convoys? Stryxis space vessel lineup, squat land trains??
sounds like the ferengi pre Dominion war
so stryxis trading whit bloodravens would be interesting magpies vs i cut my own throat Dibbler.
ANTI-STYRIXISM! MODS!
Why does this make me think of the RE4 merchant who sells like 20 guns but no ammo for them
