What do you think is the real life equivalent of the eye of terror/Cadian Gate?

I say its the North Korean/South Korean border

daemonic incursion=the many border skirmishes that occur along various areas
and some other stuff

...I don't think the two are really compatible. And when you start equating the people of North Korea with forces of diabolical evil that's dangerous.

However, your username is wonderfully apt for this discussion.

So North Korea is a transdimensional vortex?


Makes sense.

=





Also to get the obvious out of the way Earth = Terra.

The two really aren't comparable. NK actually has a chance of inflicting damage on the outside world, unlike Abaddon.

Los Angeles.

That would imply that there is some organized resistance in Los Angeles.

OP, what are you smoking?

Obviously the Eye of Terror is "inspired" (if you can call it that) from that dimensional warp-gate on Mars that all those demons pour through. I mean, we send like 10,000 American soldiers there every year.

Seriously man, read the news.

Adrianople, near modern Edime in Turkey, has been the site of many crucial battles between the Roman and/or Byzantine Empires and invaders from the east.

This is because of its strategic location.

I like how "los" is an abbreviation here. I'm going to start referring to L.A. as "line-of-sight Angeles".

I would say the nearest equivalent to the Cadian Gate is the door to my local Ikea store.

The girlfriend keeps trying to lure me into entering, with promises of rich reward and cool contemporary furniture solutions, but I know I will be trapped within, forced to walk the daemonic flatpack labyrinth, making witty banter about laminate pine, sharing my haunted, empty gaze with other lost souls forced to push the trolley, until I claw my way back into daylight at the other end.

The horror.. the horror...

Right up until you see the nice, reasonably-priced display cases that are perfect for filling with warhammer minis.

pretty much.

This conversation has gone downhill fast.

Can I say Ikea?

The Mexican Border.

The EoT has no equivilent here on Terra.

everywhere actually has the potential to inflict harm upon the rest of us.



Black Crusades are like mosquitos. they come around every year and drive you crazy, but eventually the climate gets cold, the Mosquitos die, and life goes on.

There is no modern day equivalent today; but in the past, there were key areas that armies would have to go through. As a tactical strategy, a fortress would resurrected there, knowing that the enemies full force would have to pass through there.

We need a history buff because I can't think of a specific example.
