Why can't they just write an novel about this and blame it on Tzeentch?
So what do you think of the news? GW has gone woke. Female Custodes first then female Space Marines later. Ugh I don't feel so good bro.
He believed psykers were the next stage for human evolution. Maybe you're thinking of Bile's New Men?
iirc the Death Korps were first featured in the Armageddon releases from 3rd ed as alternative color schemes for the Steel Legion
May not be a "contradiction" per se, but it's very much an "um, acchshually" moment as can be. Also, the 8th edition codex explicitely mentioned sons. It's the same way that nowhere it says that Sisters of Silence are only female but it can be infered by name/prior context.
"We have always been at war with East Asia".
Don't know if it will devolve into that, but it's shown the usual faggots that they have drawn a good chunk of blood and they are like sharks.
I'd have way more respect for the "usual faggots" if they stopped bullshitting and just admit that they don't give a shit about being inclusive and only want shit like this solely to spite the chuds or for the coom.
Pretty much. Same thing that has happened with every franchise for the last 10 years. Force you out by changing everything you enjoyed and not give a shit if it kills the brand, they ruined something the you liked and that's good enough. But yes, I prefer GW just telling me it hates it's current fanbase and be done with it. Though I'm not much to talk, I barely buy any GW or citadel products at all.
Mike Brooks is pretty open about that, to his credit. His recent Black Library contributions include tranny Eldar and genderspecial Ork pronouns.
The only Warhammer-related thing I'm remotely interested nowadays is the Boltgun game, and that's mainly because I'm also into boomer shooters.
That's incredibly unfortunate. Reading those first 3 was a slow ramp up to actually getting me really invested, with Galaxy in Flames paying off all the build up to a point where I ranked it extremely highly among all the books I've read in recent history. I'm someone who likes straightforward stories that follow consistent characters. If I am going to have to read 100 books which are only going to give me a minuscule sampling of the direct story I want to follow then I am probably not going to continue any further which sucks. I have a lot of threads I am invested in that where left on uncertain dangling strings by not being off-screened so to speak (Is Loken really dead? Did Jonah really betray Titanus?) and the one I though was going to be directly followed up in Eisenstein with what's gonna happen with Sindermann, Euphrati & Mersadie.
Yeah, it’s for that reason that I’m fine with the retcon. Custodes are gene-tailored warriors rather than Space Marines which are empowered through the Emperor’s own genes and warp magic. Think Spartan-IIs versus Spartan-IVs.
I wonder how many Guard and Votann collectors actually use the female heads on purpose. I suspect it may be more likely that the grey female heads get mistaken for male as they're being glued on.
Female custodians weren't always a thing. They had the Emperor globulus genes as they were used to juice up Primaris, that's how this whole mess started.
I’ve never liked Custodes, they’re annoying in every book, they’re simps for the worst character and they never back up the hype cause they die in hilarious ways, so them becoming sissies is fine.
It was only an matter of time, tbh. Overall, I'm kind of ambivalent about it; but it's still an dick move for them to backpedal about it. As for female Space Marines, it's kind of plausible if we're talking about something related to Chaos. But otherwise, the next step would probably be either Girlyman or the High Lords actually pushing for the Imperium to be unironically less xenophobic than mentioning that Alpharius is actually an woman.
Hear me out. Cavill loves Custodes, and he's going to more or less choose what character he gets to play in the universe. He decides to play a female Custodian, but literally just puts on a wig and lipstick. Make himself look like the Misters of Battle kitbashes.
