Warhammer 40k

[LORD IMPERATOR]

can someone like do everyone a favor and just tell all these grifter fuckers to piss off or very least introduce a shovel to their skulls.

The grifters are all over Warhammer, even those that have never heard of it. Because outrage clicks are still clicks, and bad publicity makes for good rage bait, and that's always good for these grifters who rely on outrage like this to make their channels grow..

But someone ought to tell these morons that bad publicity is still publicity. The more people get curious about Warhammer, the more likely they are to buy product. Maybe not the minis right away, but the action figures, or maybe some starter kits like the board game that has Lieutenant Titus and some Tyranids, eventually the next box set sells out and the boycott will have failed.

Just got done reading of "Honour and Iron" and while it's nice to see it from the perspective of both sides and watching an insane Dreadnought deliver an incredibly accurate speech, it's absolutely hilarious how the Warsmith suddenly became your average cartoon villain at the very end.

And, you know, the bit with Ork getting vaporized by the Chaplain.

Exactly. Slaaneshi culture is far from the ''trans power'' BS that some left-wing 40K fans try to posit it as. It's a culture of rule by the strong, with a huge helping of sex appeal, so it's basically a rape culture. If a man sees an attractive woman, Slaanesh would advise him to seize her for himself. Which is the exact opposite of what SJWs want.

The few depictions of women in Slaanesh cults/stories really go through the wringer

The musician chick existed solely to make “instruments” for Slaanesh’s true chosen, that poor artist girl had her insecurities amplified, the EC turned that guy’s mother into a mirror, the ones from Lord of Excess suffer incredibly, Sabbathiel was gang-tortured for days, the female cultist from the Lucius book had her spinal fluid harvested and the chick from House Devine did not die well.

The big exception is the (many) Mary sues from Fabius’s trilogy.

Slaanesh exposits the same “strong exist to rule over the week” mindset that Khorne followers go by. It’s the same with Nurgle/Tzeentch being similar rivals

How do grifters saying random shit have anything to do with what Cavill or amazon may or may not have done? The grifters aren't doing anything behind the scenes.

disney and corporations like them have been known to coordinate talking points. its why all the corporate youtuber takes tend to fall in a certain line when talking about things related to them.

Slaanesh is the last person I'd see the woketards supporting. Woke people hate ''objectification'' and turning characters into sex objects; Slaanesh would not. He/she would support such things like hentai fully, which would trigger the libs when a Slaaneshi dungeon party has women naked and tied up, enjoying getting whipped and waiting to be railed by the next guy who walks in. Slaanesh being pro-degeneracy and tolerant of LGBT won't offset that.

well they also objectify characters they just think forcing a woman to step on them uwu mommy is somehow better because theyre trying to force them into a dominant rather than sub role. but yeah i dont see slaanesh giving a fuck if you killed ten random niggers for fun or anything like that these types arent even cool enough to be with slaanesh.

nah if youre only seeing 40k as a fan of a right wing youtuber as part of a bandwagon youre not going to pick it up or you would have already i think. and if youre seeing it as a leftie youd think you already won and youre not going to bother as a liberal woman with autistic male toy shit about blowing things up and if youre a left wing guy youre going to be playing fallout 76 or something you can more coom to. maybe more trannies will see it? theyre in that middle ground of being autistic and wanting things that pander to them?

but no if it fails i think itll be from the indifference of people already here not this weird theory that idk critical drinker fans will want to hope on to paint their femstodes pride colors

Considering PDFs make piracy easier and PDF sharing killed ICE when they integrated them with HARP in the early 2003. I am stunned Hasbro haven’t told WOTC to cutdown on PDF support. WOTC started losing money a big time once they started to focus on digital over physical books. D&D beyond APP and website are easy to exploit for free downloads.

Which again, makes Slaanesh very politically incorrect.

Exactly. Slaaneshi cultists are just as much power-crazed as the Khorne cultists, they just have an increased desire for pleasure and seduction.

well they also objectify characters they just think forcing a woman to step on them uwu mommy is somehow better because theyre trying to force them into a dominant rather than sub role.

I'm sure Slaanesh would approve of it either way, but he'd be very upset to see SJWs trying to get rid of sexy females in media.

but yeah i dont see slaanesh giving a fuck if you killed ten random niggers for fun or anything like that these types arent even cool enough to be with slaanesh.

Slaanesh would probably give more of a fuck if you set up a brothel. Or if you set up a hentai dungeon where tied up men and women are ''pleasured'' all day. Then he'd be interested. Killing ten random black dudes on the street sounds more like a Khorne thing, as if you had someone who hated black people and the guy had to tolerate their presence all day, then this guy gets a psychotic break and kills ten of them, Khorne's going to be smiling upon that guy as he gets dragged to jail. Then when the man stabs Big Bubba in the shower because he dropped the soap and Bubba tried to lay hands on him, Khorne would be with the guy all the way.

I'd say that this controversy probably won't get more normies into the hobby, but it would at least get them to buy some books or video games just to find out what the hell this ''Warhammer'' thing is. Maybe they'll buy Space Marine, Boltgun, or Dawn of War. Or some books from Black Library. Some might even buy the model kits. But most of them won't give a shit about the female Custodes thing, and given how this crap has already played out in 2017 and GW got richer anyways despite raping the lore with the Primaris and forcing the Space Marine players to re-buy their armies, I'm going to assume a familiar pattern will occur; the controversy will die down and be forgotten, GW's suits will be laughing their asses off all the way to the bank as the new product line gets sold out AGAIN, and the scalpers start selling it at markup prices on Ebay and Amazon.

 

[Humble Architect]

There actually is a sub-plot in Lord of Excess regarding a “little guy” a crippled young man in a hive city who gets the attention of Khorne.

Lord of Excess was a good read, very little about the post-13th Black Crusade EC or Fulgrim though, there are no teases in this book, no loyalist space marines or Imperium forces show up btw.

Spoiler: Spoilers for Lord of Excess

That guy becomes a willing host for a greater daemon of Khorne who hears his rage…….. and sympathizes, it’s a daemonic symbiosis contrasting the protagonist’s uneven partnership with his daemon. The daemon even reshapes one of their arms to that of it’s host. One of the best depictions of a daemon that isn’t just a cliche body-snatch, that happens but it is possible to achieve Argel Tal co-existence

 

[MeltyTW]

i think at worst this will just fail to make a dent. i didnt really expect to see gw crumble from this specifically. its just nice to see even the smallest thing get any pushback to the point attempts to say no one cares its just a few has completely failed and now people have been forced to cover it. idk if even .01 percent of people who said no more buying actually buy at least less thats not good for them for something this small. if you mean "gw wont stop making shitzillions because of this" well yeah. its just a bigger pushback earlier on than weve seen in other franchises.

i dont think gw is blocking people en masse because theyre happy this is happening.

any right wing viewer who just wants to own the libs wont want the company that it currently brings you or will want more to just yell at the libs. any lib watching is mostly like a woman or a faggot, who historically have been shown to only care about things like this when its in its prime for attention seeking and to subvert and take it over. i really do think at most they might get more of a tranny audience but they tend to kill themselves off anyway.

despite raping the lore with the Primaris and forcing the Space Marine players to re-buy their armies

one you have to ignore retarded faggotry to get your fix. the other is them just fucking with your fix and making your fun universe of splattering orks to death instead about getting fucked up the ass, and emboldening other people trying to subvert your fix and talking about your fix into being all about sucking cock rather than having to suck metaphorical dick as a byproduct of getting the fix.

it just made me sad knowing that the civilization hating infiltrators couldnt be anything cool irl just a bunch of dorks who just mildly pester aloof people in power to make dumb decisions out of mediocrity and self hate.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

i dont think gw is blocking people en masse because theyre happy this is happening.

They blocked Arch back in the day, even when they were making money hand over fist with the Primaris, and they're obviously not happy over the hate, but at the end of the day, we all know that it's not going to affect their bottom line.

any right wing viewer who just wants to own the libs wont want the company that it currently brings you or will want more to just yell at the libs. any lib watching is mostly like a woman or a faggot, who historically have been shown to only care about things like this when its in its prime for attention seeking and to subvert and take it over. i really do think at most they might get more of a tranny audience but they tend to kill themselves off anyway.

I don't think they need that audience to begin with. All they need are the whales who play the tabletop the same way the kids who play the Pokemon TCG without knowing who Ash is. The most they'll lose if the chuds honor their vow to walk away are some Black Library revenues, but that's a small part of their media empire and it's a negligible loss compared to the minis.

one you have to ignore retarded faggotry to get your fix. the other is them just fucking with your fix and making your fun universe of splattering orks to death instead about getting fucked up the ass, and emboldening other people trying to subvert your fix

That's the point. You have to tolerate the retarded nature of the hobby just to get your fix. And by retarded nature, I mean the ridiculous price-gouging and the lack of care GW has over the lore. By this point, the people who are still in the hobby are just numb to that shit. They know the lore has all the cohesion of a drunk fratboy driving his father's van and sending it careening into someone else's house. And they've tolerated getting price-gouged in the same way video gamers tolerate getting pegged by companies that force them to have always-online DRM even for single-player games. It's one massive joke.

it just made me sad knowing that the civilization hating infiltrators couldnt be anything cool irl just a bunch of dorks who just mildly pester aloof people in power to make dumb decisions out of mediocrity and self hate.

Yes. Instead of someone like Darth Sidious, who's playing both sides and getting them to destroy each other so that he can stand triumphant, or Horus Lupercal, someone who's destroying the system because he believes it's right, you just have a bunch of lazy, good-for-nothing dorks who bitch and moan about how western civilization has to go because they're too lazy to get a proper job.

Slaanesh when on ironically support you human trafficking women and sexually torturing them because that's excess but you have to do it in a way that basically gives you absolute power over them Jeffrey Epstein would be more likely to be accepted by the Prince of pleasure then Brianna Wu.
Andrew Tate would actually be more accept by the Prince of pleasure simply due to the fact that he fully supports you sex trafficking women exploiting people's sexual desires and taking advantage of vice
taking advantage of naive young men and leading them down a path that hedonism and materialism exploiting vulnerable young women
being a vain narcissist these are all acceptable things and the Prince of pleasures eyes.

Being a whiny hall monitor tattletale I don't think any faction would really like that very much
even Jeffrey dahmer would be accepted bye the Prince of pleasure because that's excess taken to a logical conclusion

you cook really good crystal meth and make really good drugs that would also be something the Prince of pleasure would be interested in

the poor job making is I don't see why the transgenders like slyness if you prayed to she who thirsts and saying you wanna be a woman she would probably grant it but in a really screwed up way so you become a disgusting grotesque mockery of a woman
no wait that's what they do already

i think youre just incapable of grasping that to a chunk of people this is worse than "fuck you pay for bigger marines" idk theres a difference between idk sucking dick for cocaine and them just selling you jizzed cocaine to water it down for fags and normies. i cant really enjoy my cocaine if i cant the same high and all the negatives of sucking dick to get to it is now built into the product. thats how people see the female custodes thing. before you gave gw the money, you sucked their dick and you got bigger marines and then you could just ignore shit.

i cant really do that if they embolden faggots to make the game and discussion around it about whos going to get fucked up the ass. i liked it because you had normal people and the ability to support something that allowed normal people to connect that was more masculine and fun. this undermines all that. none of us have objective charts on how many people this is but its non zero and unlike primaris they dont even have something retarded people will want no young boy wants to be dyke mc bitchface in poweramor and no girl either. some of them thought "woooah badass stat boosted marines wooaaah bigger" and having truescale marines were nice. so even the worse rape you can think of still had some incentive to buy it. cocaine is cocaine even if you have to bend over to get it. cocaine watered down with jizz is a waste of time and that point fuck you its time for rehab.

so no i dont know that and i know myself and a few others for sure arent dropping hundreds to thousands anymore so even with just us thats still not ideal for them

I don't think they need that audience to begin with. All they need are the whales who play the tabletop the same way the kids who play the Pokemon TCG without knowing who Ash is. The most they'll lose if the chuds honor their vow to walk away are some Black Library revenues, but that's a small part of their media empire and it's a negligible loss compared to the minis.

theres games no longer being bought as well and i dont think theres this complete divide in lore and play that you think is universal. and even then many like myself mainly collected them to view or to create dioramas and art and the odd home game. theres also the fact alot of the accounts ive seen giving gw reach with memes or posts about 40k are the type of people who dont like this. ive always noticed when you lose that energy of people passionate over something who mention it organically alot because they actually like it you tend to reduce your reach as well. even the people who think this is nothing have mentioned their gamestores having to at least comment on the issue or ban people

and what i meant in the section your bit here is replying to is i dont think the people this is reaching will be tempted by minis or even really by lore so i think its even less likely that this will help gw.

They blocked Arch back in the day, even when they were making money hand over fist with the Primaris, and they're obviously not happy over the hate, but at the end of the day, we all know that it's not going to affect their bottom line.

i dont actually know that. primaris if you turn your brain off are cool on a boyish level. theyre truescale marines and they can kick even more ass. i mean you can know your audience and play off negative tendencies as well. when i was younger for instance childrens media was beginning to focus on more mature storytelling and it was fun and made people think at an earlier age and there was tons of action oriented programming that made people want to be heroic. now i see popular cartoons for boys mainly playing to grossout and mindless fart jokes. the thing is that also appeals to boys. i think its dull and mind numbing but it appeals to them nonetheless.

the custodes thing was meant to appeal to people who dont play warhammer or engage anything like the video games or the books. and who mainly seem to buy anything when they do to just justify being this parasitic presence. no boy wants to be a femstodes or play with them and no girl is going to get into it for femstodes. anyone motivated by agenda wont want to play just for that either.


idk ill stop now but i really think that the defense brigade being activated, tons of people complaining and no longer buying things isnt good for gw. and i think theres reason to believe its going to get worse for them, and i dont really see the point in trying to say its not as bad as other times when if you are angry at those past times you could just pile it on as further grievances in fact many have from buying and promoting 3d printers while mentioning the ridiculous monetary practices.

 

[ShitLurker]

The fact anti-SJW Disney movie ticket buying grifter faggots are already damage controlling for Henry Cavill. That tells me the Warhammer lore retcons probably is his fault for pushing for the amazon show.

2 big mistakes here, first, you are listening to Vee, the second is that you didn't turn the video off while laughing when Vee said "my wife".

Yeah its one of those "anime moments" that make zero sense. The entire point in having a robot soldier is that it doesn't feel pain and you can repair it. If it goes uppity you just switch it on and off until it behaves.

Gonna have to agree with....

I think you'd actually want your bot to be able to feel pain or something analogous, you just don't want it to be overwhelmed by it like people can be. If it had no negative reaction to harm, it'd be constantly getting damaged in needless or pointless ways, similar how people who can't feel pain burn themselves because they can't feel heat.

.... you want them to keep on trucking against incapacitating damage, but pain or something similar is very useful to also stop avoidable damage from just happening. Met a guy once who had no capacity to feel pain, so he would go into a sportsball game, go all out and then when home, his mother would notice he had a horrible bruise and worse. Made the guy be a bit of a daredevil which just means he stack on even more fractures. It's one of those things that are cool on paper but it's a miracle he reached adult life. So you really want some sort of feedback that has the response "make it stop" built in.

Problem is, the whales have faced far worse real-life issues when playing this game, and they stayed loyal anyways.

Since Warhammer has no canon, any fan can make their own, and they can easily excuse that story of the Female Custodes as a prank played by the men who dressed a Sister of Battle in Custodes armor, or just write it off as propaganda or the account of an unreliable narrator. Primaris Marines, a person with a better head-canon can explain them in a way that would make sense in-lore. Like say, instead of randos from Mars, they're actually veteran Space Marines who signed up for an experiment and came back with enhanced gene-seeds and armor, and you can even explain the Primaris becoming the face of the Space Marine forces by saying that once the few test subjects who signed on for Caw's experiments turned out to be successes, Guilliman had the process rolled out and by the end of the year, all Space Marines were given Primaris geneseeds and the new armor, thereby explaining why all the new art for Space Marines have only Primaris and no more Firstborn marines, since they all got improved.

But the fact that GW continued to nickel and dime the customers, and the customers continued to buy regardless. GW's prices never went down no matter how many improvements to the process of creating the plastic they've had. The prices continued to inflate, exacerbated by scalpers who would buy the product from the online store, then hang on to it until prices rise when the product is sold out, so they can sell it back on the market for a markup price. If the whales didn't leave after GW jacked up the price tag again and again and again, from the 90s to the 2020s, then they won't be leaving over some silly story about a female Custodes.

They've been talking about 3D printers rendering GW obsolete for almost a decade now. It hasn't happened. If it didn't happen in 2017, it sure as fuck isn't happening now.

The ''defense brigade''-I've seen it back in 2017 with GW going after Arch, but of more serious note is them going after fan animators and banning people from tournaments for having custom 3D-printed model kits. Such moves were extremely dickish towards the fanbase which loved the IP for so long, yet the fans continued to buy regardless of GW's dickery.

Every time we hear that GW has crossed the line, GW is never getting our money again, this is the last straw, I've been hearing it since fucking 2017, and it doesn't really matter, since it didn't matter back then, it won't matter now. GW being dicks to their fans, wiping their asses with the lore, jacking up price tags for their product, it's been happening for decades, and the fans still stay anyways. The Female Custodes are supposed to be this ''last straw'' according to grifters, yet if they actually studied the real-life history of Warhammer 40K as an IP, and the history between the fans and GW, they'd know this is a drop in the bucket compared to all the shit the fans went through in the past.

The people who actually care about the lore checked out a long time ago. They probably only spent money on Black Library novels, and I'm sure they'll probably honor their promise of not buying GW products after this, but they're a minor, negligible loss compared to the whales.

Honestly I think the enhanced geneseed is bullshit but it's in reality it's Cawl's equipment however the reason why Cawl would even mention the geneseed is so that they won't go snooping for whose geneseed did Cawl use and which ones did he hybridize with different bullshit.

 

[Male Idiot]

I think you can just program a robot or cyborg to avoid damage due to programming.

Space marines used to have little pain response too. They would register the damage, but it wouldn't bother them that much.

This even happens in real life due to adrenaline to a much lesser degree.

Slaanesh is the last person I'd see the woketards supporting. Woke people hate ''objectification'' and turning characters into sex objects; Slaanesh would not. He/she would support such things like hentai fully, which would trigger the libs when a Slaaneshi dungeon party has women naked and tied up, enjoying getting whipped and waiting to be railed by the next guy who walks in. Slaanesh being pro-degeneracy and tolerant of LGBT won't offset that.

What they think Slaanesh is: Endless sex, pleasure and individual expression.
What Slaanesh really is: A man raising his daughter like the perfect father to enjoy the pleasures of parenthood, them raping her to death and turning her into a meat pie for the lulz.
