hey guys, a while back we were talking about a 40k movie, well for the last 4 years some germans have been working on one. it's been independently funded and at the outset got the nod from GW itself. now GW has gone back on their given 'go ahead' for the film and it's stalled. here's a petition to GW for them to let the movie happen. it's called Damnatus and is about the IG  at any rate, here's the link! www.petitiononline.com/damnatus/petition.htmlthe website for the project is here: damnatus.com |

Problem is that it's all in German. Not that I mind since I understand it, but it seems a bit off, since the entire Warhammer world IS in English. Let's be honest, "We need more Dakka!" is a bit more interesting than "Wir brauchen mehr Dakka!".
"Bereit zu sterben für dem Kaiser!"

It wouldn't be the same though, having to read what all the characters were saying would take a lot of the fun and exitment out. They don't speak english in the 41 st millenium , wouldn't it all be in High gothic? lol!

chill guys, they can release it in subtitles. By the way I knew of this film before and i gotta say it looks promising, if overly dark and brooding, even for warhammer 40000. Im just glad i can finally support it, even if only with my signature. I hope the best to the filmakers making it.

I think that high gothic is more like latin and low gothic is english or german. I base this on spacemarines that speak high gothic and have latin-like writing. Normal imperials probably speak a language like english. After all Orks speak a bad low gothic and they sound like cockny.

Yeah, I am 95% certain that High Gothic is Latin, I am not sure about low Gothic. It's weird though because Latin isn't a Gothic language and German is. I have just confused myself....

German is a latin based language, so i guess it would count as low gothic I suppose. But I would think that in the 41st mellenium they would proberbly have a totaly differant language because of the way that languages change. I would say they speak a highbrid mix of all the languages of earth
