Are you sure your trader was not duped into worshipping Malal? The paradox of worshipping both the Emperor and the Four seems to me like a fit.

I am so fucking tired over this argument REPEATED stop retreading this bullshit already and buy old marines or something. Its not even a kiwi issue I am going insane over seeing this argument repeated over and over and over. Do you just want your opinions reaffirmed constantly or what? They still act like big dumb space marines thats all that matters if that really does not do it for you just play another faction or just replace the helmets you live in a 3D printer era its not hard. See this marine is wearing a beak but is primaris its that easy.
You ARENT getting your dumb primaris civil war purge EVER

But but.... old thing, good! New thing... bad! Woke, bad! Not-woke, good!
The doomers are just as bad as the tourists tbh. If you hate the new setting theres at least a hundred novels and thousands of firstborn models on Ebay you could buy, no primaris necessary. Hell, there are 3d modelers that have already made Primaris-scale firstborns you could 3d print, not even including bits. Have some optimism. If youre not having fun, and new Warhammer and GW circa 2024 are dead and infected by retards, then fuck off and do something else. No one is forcing you to engage with the current setting.
That being said, how many kits do you fellas suspect we'll get with EC? It took them forever to drop the Nightlords kill team, and we've only got renders from the EC stuff, so its (probably) a long way off. I hope we get a new Slaanesh daemons frontline unit with the release, or Slaaneshi cultists that can be run with demons. Each daemon faction now having their shortbus marines should hopefully push GW to crossover the factions more. Chaos is kind of a mess as it is, especially with the lack of basic models that arent just characters. Bile getting his own detachment would also be cool. Slaaneshi cultists being cross-buildable to glandhounds/New Men would make me V happy.

The only issue I've had with Primaris is that their shoulders are sometimes too big for regular pauldrons when kitbashing. But that's nothing a little jimmy-rigging with a file or an X-Acto knife can't fix. Or if it's vice-versa, and the pauldrons are too big, you can just fill the gaps with Green Stuff or chips of sprue.
But the supposed lore reasons that Primaris are actually heresy of the worst kind is just autism. It reminds me of Fallout fanboys who got all assblasted about T-60 power armor. As far as lore crimes go, it's a nonviolent misdemeanor, especially next to GW's rap sheet.
Minor cosmetic changes happen over an IP's lifetime all the time. It keeps the material fresh. Warhammer is no different, get over it.

There was a fifth voice the night he was visited by the four demons in his mind that said, "They're going to destroy each other." so maybe. I wouldn't put it past our GM.

Care to share what the assblasting was about? I played only Fallout 1/2/Tactics.

The T-60 power armor on the cover of Fallout 4 was just a sleeker-looking version of the one from Fallout 3, the T-45. A loading screen and the prologue says it was around on the day the bombs fell, and it hadn't been mentioned up until that point.
But lore spergs had to be know-it-alls and say "nuh, uh, acktuchally, it's didn't exist before so hurba blurba retcon durr durr!"
Like, seriously, who gives a shit?

From my perspective, them and Gorillaman's return feel too much like a neat and easy "make shit less grimdark and more optimistic" button.
Just randomly declaring "Oh look Mr Rowboat woke up! and he just pulled a literal million Super Space Marines with fancy and shiny and fashionably high tech looking new guns out his ass to unfuck the Imperium!" feels downright unearned by the general narrative......even if said general narrative had not actually moved forward in any way since 2001. I know they also turbo-fucked the setting in order to balance shit out, but still it just feels off for shit not to be so fucking hopeless and miserable.
Like in all honesty I don't especially dislike the end result, merely that the way of getting there could have been a whole lot better plotted.
To use a Fallout comparison, imagine it was abruptly declared in a tie-in book that the NCR randomly found an army of Liberty Prime robots and had largely conquered the former US and were now mass producing T-100 power armor and pre-war tanks and airplanes and shit in order to fight the Ultra Mutants now invading from Mexico and the Lovecraftian remnants of Bongland now swarming the East Coast. Sure one could argue that in balance shit is still technically bleak but the tone sure has fuckin shifted away from what once defined the series.
Also fuck the Custodes. Super-Super Space marines as an army concept should have never left the drawing board, although frankly the orginal evil was when they made the Grey Knights the original Super Space Marine faction

...I'm actually a bit fond of the Primaris, I want more stories of them being competent and cool but still naive compared to the veterans and more susceptible to Chaos or at least getting their shit pushed in by the more ancient marines. I understand and even feel for the people for hate their guts though.
I'm also fond of the Banana boys but you know what, having this super fuck-off (nearly) unbeatable army of walking WMDs and doing barely dick all with them for large parts of the setting is just turbo retardation. And as @Judge Holden said, not only does Gulliman's return just not feel like its done right, he now suddenly gets these mustard bottle fucks off their ass? They're so cool but whenever they appear I feel a headache coming on.

That's not an accurate comparison at all. Literally half the Imperium has been cut off from the Throne World while Tyranids are coming and Necrons are awakening. Guilliman and Lion returning are probably the only thing that has gone right in the last 10,000 years.
There might be an ever-so-slight ray of hope, but not much has changed in the grand scheme of things. The returned primarchs still have their work cut out for them.
Deploying the Custodes to a warzone wouldn't make sense, either. It'd be like sending the Secret Service to fight ISIS.

I enjoyed David Guymer's Iron Hands series I remember that the Iron Hand Chapter was basically mind controlled by the Adeptus Mechanicus. From creating their historical/holy documents to mind wiping them.
I wish that aspect was explored more instead of Iron Hands being almost corrupted by Slannesh.
Anything by Josh Reynolds for me.
Dan Abnett's Titanicus is great starter novel for Warhammer 40k I think. Politics, Giant robot fights and Admech and Imperium political slapfights. It was a fun novel.
Chris Waight's Vaults of Terra series reintroduces Terra as wretched hive so bad that Dark Elves see it as heaven and an all you can eat free buffet. Also reintroduces, the Talons of the Emperor (Custodes and Sisters of Silence) are back not being as useless lore wise.
I really enjoyed Ben Counter's Grey Knight series and Graham McNeil's Priest of Mars Trilogy.
Most of the Primarch novellas suck unfortunately, only the traitor primarch novellas are any good. Perturabo's is the best book with Angron's a close second.
Very impressive villain.

Sort of a side plot by the main villain in the first Grey Knights book.
The daemon, Ghargatuloth, created a False Saint Evisser and his Trails to spread it's influence across systems to help bring it back in to the Materium. Ghargatuloth corrupted many different Imperial agencies and people across millennia so it could come back. It was a really good plan and it almost worked.
A lot of it's victims either believed they were fighting against chaos or fighting for it, even then his pawns were fighting each other within the same novel!

I’ve been playing more Rogue Trader, rolling a commissar to see the other side and you know what I just realized?
No fag shit, my gigachad commissar was referred to as “he” when almost every game with a character creator is using “they” and so far the only gay stuff is based retard Jae bats for both teams. Honestly the gayest thing about this game is GW meddling and not allowing Argenta to be a romance, I mean she’s killed more people than any of my player characters combined so to be honest, she should be the main character and the RT be an option for her.
With one glaring exception, even the portraits are based, even the diverse ones.
“Abelard I have continued the bloodline, inform the men.”
