Warhammer 40k

They fought beside the Emperor during the Great Crusade so yes, it would make sense for them to have combat rules at least prior to the Emperor's ascension to the Golden Throne. Then Guillimon's return saw them assigned to the authority of Roboute and some of them became his bodyguards as well. Between the Emperor's ascension and Guillimon's return, they served the exact function you described.

There's also another situation you neglected to highlight, and that's if the Imperial Palace were ever invaded, then they would have to fight to defend the Emperor.
Well, prior sure it makes sense if they were released when HH was announced and stuff. But, having combat ruled since 8th Edition, that seemed wonky at first, but also kinda makens sense. But, the later reasoning makes sense (well, with the Palace being invaded), but I could have sworn PapaSmurf had his own elite Bluesmurf guards or somethi

Agreed. The Custodes are too powerful of an asset to just keep on Terra while the Imperium slowly crumbles into collapse. That, and we already know that the Emperor can send messages and intervene in the case of Saint Celestine, so he'd also have the ability to tell one of the guards in his palace to fucking DO SOMETHING about the collapsing Imperium. If they were all going to just mope and whine and be useless, they should've killed themselves ages ago.

Keeping the Custodes in Terra doing nothing while the Imperium slowly collapses is like keeping the Jedi Order in Coruscant doing nothing while the Republic collapses. It's stupid.
 
Well, with the squatting of firstborn I boycotted GW models. With this I am stopping the purchase of video games.

Same as I did with Star Wars. I'll play some games I still have, but that's all I'll ever do.

I liked the Imperium and the Sith because they weren't faggot leftist goodie goodies.

Now woman marines will come, and lesbian nigger Siths too, see the Acolyte.

I am taking my chudbucks to China, fuck the west. Millions must 3d print, or better, find a new hobby.

Lovecraft is public domain and his cat's name was NIGGER.

I mean, they are getting killed technically. Like, whenever Custodes or BlueSmurfs are involved in stories, they get always their shit punted like no tomorrow. Pretty sure everyone just hates their asses.

Better they die fighting for their Emperor than sitting with their thumbs up their asses doing nothing for 10K years. Apathy is death.
 
Which is pathetic. That is the trade of scholars, not elite warriors who stand above the Astartes. If that was their desire, they should've given up their armor and weapons and enlisted in some liberal arts college.
Thats what always made me laugh, they wanna sell the Custodes as these bad ass elites. An yet theyre also scholars, painters, poets, musicians and writers. Like, I get you need a hobby in the 10k years, but this is approaching BS levels of that one Grey Knight guy.
 
Well lets see the new loyal fans geedubs and major got from cucking out:


so you have what appears to be the nightmare apparition that would stab me to death in empty halls during my childhood nightmares, just absolutely gleeful, just over the moon that a chud has not only bent the knee low, but has also made the egregious mistake of doing so while pointing out that genetic abomination killing machines wouldnt be designed to facilitate his (probably) homo pedo erections. uh oh looks like major is a transphobe.

well this is just wonderful for major and the rest. why do something like, play the game, whatever that is, when you can quibble over pronouns and cancel people. bet hes glad he moved on his from his old days doing something as bigoted as playing 40k, best learn to correct himself though that transphobia, nope nuh uh, not here sir.

I wouldn't say that Custodes are doing nothing while being on Terra. Aren't they fighting an unending conflict against a flood of demons or is that problem solved?
Narrative wise it's maybe not as exiting as seeing them traveling around for high stake missions but it's not like they are twiddling with their thumbs.
 
and the third-wave feminists have made their demands for female space marines clear
Now the fucking culture wars have arrived. They have arrived not because of anything the "female playerbase" has done, or complained about, or got noisy about.

This is not about "reeee wimmin in muh tabletop ruining things". We didn't ruin a damn thing; this isn't something we even wanted. But the discussion about it is, unquestionably, going to bring the position of existing female community members under scrutiny, and that is without doubt going to make common 40K spaces less comfortable for us.

I didn't want that crap in my comfy hobby of decades. I don't know anyone who did. And I do not want to receive reflected crap from GW's stupid and purposeless decision.

We are not some kind of fifth column, and now there are going to be people who treat us as if we are, and I don't like that.
This is what I meant. I would just like to enjoy my plastic in peace please.

This is more galaxy-brained crap by a corporation who have convinced themselves, in the face of all the available evidence, that there is some large group of consumers that they could suddenly access if they did a little pinkwashing. See also MCU phases 2 and 3, the entire Star Wars franchise, and so on.

There is no perceptible demand for this from any women of which I am aware. If this is a great crusade (see what I did thurr) I have managed to be totally unaware of it, and I stand corrected. There are already a bunch of girls in power armor if girls in power armor are what you want, and after decades they even gave us them in plastic.

Note: trannies are not women for this purpose, or any other.

i wonder how much of the problem is people in charge being trapped in small non representative circles and coping when things dont align with that and how much of it is more directly from people who cant let go of the idea that men and women are distinct types of people that have their own needs and preferences and that you cant just make agender goop media to appeal to those who wrongfully and or rightfully have felt excluded because they didnt 100 percent align with the usual preference of their sex.

because youd think daddy morbucks would tell his college aged daughter fuck you glad you got your useless filler degree in gender but im clearly losing out here and it really seems like one of the bigger focuses is in making little girls want to be super soldiers running around in star wars even though they dont want to be or to make boys want to be girly pegged submissives who do chick things while women take charge. i wonder how much of it is just the kathleen kennedys deciding that her wanting to be gi joe instead of barbie has to be the issue for an entire generation of boys and girls instead of her own personal struggle.

There was a 4chan post, I shared it a few pages back, that suggested a large amount of these problems are Troons that trooned out after being fans of Star Wars, D&D, 40k, etc. Well, they're stunning and brave women, who OBVIOUSLY like only feminine things... but they still like 40k. So obviously, 40k has to be made more feminine otherwise them -- being stunning and brave RealWomen ™️ -- liking it would be weird.

Then of course there's the activists, who can't stand that people have hobbies that aren't leftist aligned agitprop, and thus 40k needed to be fixed so it spews out the required leftist aligned agitprop.

And there's also the "I really hate daddy for missing my football game" types that want to ruin the game just because men like it.

thats a good bit of it but its more than that. its not even really new. its been slowly creeping with even things people dont really think of as being part of it like Alien or Half life 2 or all the push then. its this weird refusal to admit mean are more suited and more desiring of some roles and women of others. i remember even thinking it was weird as a kid that girls are still obviously treated like girls in real life but all my media tells me theyre basically just boys in dresses. and that only stupid bigots would assume a female army is less suited than a male one.

and its taken on this new sort of thing where a few girls who are into less traditional girly things for some reason think girls want this weird mish mash. the only thing girls cared about rey for was a vehicle for bad boy fantasies. which i actually think was kinda shit for anti sjw grifters to really shit on them for because theyre just little girls they didnt you know unilaterally decide to ruin star wars they just saw an element they liked.

I preferred it when they went insane due to failing to protect the emperor, honestly, they should have all committed ritual suicide. From a tabletop standpoint, Imperial Knights, Custodes and fliers are the trifecta of gigantic fuck ups that will constantly be either shit or oppressive due to how hard it is to get them "right".
I don't know. I'd take internet bickering over coomers and post-tumblrites ruining my nerdslop.
I think is complaint was more about how easy people are baited by gay furries to start foaming out of the mouth.
Ah yes, the legendary female muscle builder, capable of lifting a third less or more than their male counterparts! Oh wait, he doesn't mean the ugly amorphous blob types (that aren't full of testosterone up the ass)!

He of course means the fetish fuel ones that have marked muscles but can't actually apply that muscle in any practical way. Or does he mean an MMA practicer that still seems pretty feminine and lean for what I would expect would need to be forcefully grown to fit into a power armor? Again, it always goes back to the fetish with these degenerates.

More I look at it, the more I'm buying that this is the real reason shit like this gets pushed so hard. We have had some female input here already that correlates to what I would expect "we are few, but we came in because we liked things like they were" and "no, we don't give a shit about space marines in any form nor sisters". Same deal with the tired out "Strong independent woman" archetype. Only people that jack of to that stuff and women are tourists, activits and thots that want to get cash from pathetic nerds. But the trannies and "nice guys that respect whamen" lap this shit up in mouth fulls.
