All right, here's the thing about the Repentia units: They're inherently a ridiculous premise. Imagine a bunch of failed clerics who are given no armor whatsoever, then issued melee weapons and told to kick unholy ass if they want forgiveness. They then throw themselves into the fight like a bunch of insane people only can. The original models, contrary to what BABD insists, really weren't designed to tittilate, since by and large, GW has made attractive female models exactly one time.

The old models, which BABD decries, were made in like the early 90s and didn't have plastic models until relatively recently - it was Pewter only for all that time. The new ones wear their inspiration openly, which is to say they're referencing old penitents, which... Makes sense, because that's what the fucking Repentia are.

Similarly, Black Inquisitors for literally every branch of the Imperium's Holy Inquisition have been a thing in canon since forever ago (in particular, DOW veterans remember Inquisitor Toth for being surprisingly well-written) and there has never been anything stopping black Sisters, either - wherever the convent is set up, that's where they recruit from.

BABD is trying to make it seem like a minor model update for a unit that's literally not had plastics ever and a few new paintjobs are signs of her side getting its way, and I... Don't see that. I don't think most 40K vets see that, actually. She's a fucking nut.

Quick primer: in Warhammer 40,000 there is a sub-faction of the Imperium of Man that's entirely composed of women, the Adeptus Sororitas, or the Sisters of Battle. They're a subset of the church that all but rules over the Imperium, and they were created due to loophole in the laws that stated the Ecclesiarchy could not hold men under arms. They're all religious zealots of the higher order, their faith so strong they can literally perform miracles in battle.

When a Sister of Battle strays or fails, they get relegated to a squad of Repentia. They're stripped of their powered armor except for the boots (so they can still run through the battlefield), covered only in seals of purity, given huge chainsaw swords, and thrown at the enemy with only furious zeal to protect them, under the command of a taskmistress who's still in power armor.

Here are the previous models for the Repentia:

I can't find the original models for them, but here's a cosplay version:

I think you can tell why they don't like the Repentia.

As for the sensitivity readers, for years GW has had an attitude of not giving a fuck what the fans say or think. It's only been recently where they've given the slightest hint of giving a fuck.

Warhammer 40k is basically the miniatures game in the UK. Nothing else comes close, which seems to be why wokists want it so badly.

I say this because in recent years GW did bend the knee for the first time ever by releasing some woke books. The wokeshit was about as well received as it normally is, but then nothing. To be clear, I don't play 40k these days so I might be out of the loop, but as far as I can tell GW have gone back to simply ignoring people outside of the occasional [brand] messaging.

Basically, that subfaction is an little bit into BDSM out of penance, they can't have men under arms due to an failed coup that nobody talks about. So we get stuff nuns with guns and an fucking pipe organ that shoots out missiles.

These are supposed to be the literal definition of self-flagellation and these people are essentially what happens when the religious nutjobs have an inferiority complex. I've never really kept up with the models that isn't the Space Marines or the IG tanks.

Oh, and the journo is just scraping the bottom of the barrel; considering how the forces the Dark Eldar and Slaneesh are just as revealing.

That's a broken clock moment. Sure, both designs work. Did these guys ever watch the original He-Man cartoon?

Our boy was showing more skin than the cheesecake femme fatale.

The point is: no one gives a shit. This is not some great discovery, wrought from eternal truth to own the chuds. What we don't like is when someone simply transposes a female outfit on a male without accounting for the differences in shapes between men and women, which usually just looks fucking ridiculous. Hell, even in their own example:

They didn't just do the same X shape on the male. That inverted T shape actually does a good job of emphasizing the dude's muscular chest. It works because it actually took into account the fact that men and women look different, and as such different things about them are seen as attractive in different ways.

I like the old look more than the dully-colored "improved" version. The new one is so bland and forgettable.

That's an ongoing theme that's been the case for like 20 years with GW. They constantly rotate out older designs, and while sometimes it can result in some cool shit, there's plenty of cases where it results in shit like this. I think probably the best example of yore was the change between the old Daemonette designs and the new ones.

I think a big part of that is just the paint job. They actively decided to significantly mute the colors on all the repentia and just have the canoness have bright colors on her. I think the old sculpts were better from a design standpoint too, but they'd be a lot better if they weren't flesh tone + dark gray + steel gray + maybe some dull burgandy for a color scheme.

I'm a bit confused why he thinks Clementine's outfit would be a tripping hazard, i mean out of everything he could have picked he goes for that?

Might be from the well running dry? I mean, that kind of content isn't too hard to find. I mean, just look at this.

And he'll more or less have the exact same argument about it.

I'm guessing it's the big straps on her outfit.

Actually, that Overlord one was sent to him by someone else. I'm tempted to send him something to tell you the truth if he didn't know me.
