Description FOREWORD: Following some recent events that saw one of my older creations being used without my consent and a certain individual throwing a tantrum instead of simply correctly crediting me, I've decided I'll be reuploading *most* of the things I made under my now deactivated Hiroki-00 handle to this account for both posterity and to better reflect I actually made them.

You can find most of these hosted on the PMG Creations wiki / PMG wiki, but if anything this means I'll have them here, right where they belong.

It took me 2 years to realize wiping accounts is stupid, especially if the files you aim to reduce access to are hosted elsewhere. OPSEC should have taught me this, but I'm afraid failure is always the best way to learn - doesn't matter who you are, if you drop the ball you get to pick it up even if it fell in a latrine.

LORE: A relatively new pattern of bolter, the Subiugalis is primarily meant to be used by the Imperial Guard and is generally seen as a much needed upgrade from the ubiquitous but somewhat weak lasgun. Unlike the .75 caliber (~19-20mm) bolts of the Astartes, it uses a much more modest .50 (~12,5-13mm) bolt that is considerably shorter and thus, lacking in range in comparison to them. What it lacks in range, it makes up for tremendous firepower - at least in comparison to the standard lasgun. The Subiugalis-pattern bolter is also renowed for its very light kick and high degree of controllability, but pays for it due to using a rather temperamental action that is known to be easily fowled. It also comes with a foregrip to further expand its controlability, and to better accomodate the wide variety of Guardsmen, it can be placed further away or closer to the user as required by way of five holes on the bottom of the handguard. It has a somewhat wide variety of attachments, but generally it is issued as it is seen here. It is rumored the techpriests behind it seem to have been inspired by old firearms from the 2nd millenium, but that's neither here nor there. (sic)

COMMENTARY: My second attempt at the 40k style. Still too modern, too sleek. It was supposed to be a sort of reflection of the M16 at the time of its adoption, down to sharing some its advantages and disadvantages. The shitty Aquila honestly makes me smile at how lazy I was back then, I've certainly come a long way from that to my current standards.
