Warhammer 40k

[Sargon's wife's son]

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 people and your defender of the elf lover girly man will never not be funny primary space marines are not real space marines and our #heresy.

Also I finished all of Dan abnett S heresy novels and Oh my God that man cannot write space millions when it comes to anything outside of the guidebooks he created people should stop I didn't write anything besides imperial guard

Lets assume this fucker's as tall as an Armiger; I don't think that's unreasonable. His wings are just as tall or taller than him. We're talking 10-12" or so here, aren't we? And it's going to be resin, so those wings are going to last maybe one trip to/from the gaming table before they snap off.

I buy that but I'm not a homosexual everyone who plays emperor's children is gay

They re-retconned Female Custodes away in the new book by Guy Haley and Gav Thorpe. Specifically calls the Custodes a brotherhood and male, removing the gender-neutral language added in the 10th Codex and replacing it with the male specific terms used before the retcon.

...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.

The new Alpha legion book (Renegades: Harrowmaster) is good for that, this group of veteran alpha legionnaires absolutely shits on a load of primaris Imperial Fists while being impressed with how durable they are etc. Tbh it's a good book overall, even has Kharn in it.

Just for autistic funsies, who would you fancast for certain characters? I think we can agree on Cavill as Emps.

[Meat Target]

MeatBro found me a Deff Dread for Christmas, which they either don't make anymore or don't sell in Burgerstan. Perfect way to cap off my Ork WAAAAUGGGGH!

This is probably going to be an dumb as hell question but fuck it, is there any """based""" non-grifting Warhammer content creator?

I've said before: Luetin09 and The Remembrancer. They're good at sticking to just lore, if you want filled in on books you don't feel like reading. And some people mentioned DreadAnon, who's legit funny and has to stay just on the right side of JewTube rules.

I have my suspicions of Mr.Bones since he associates with a few troons. I hope Baldermort isn't someone I should avoid...on purpose

Bones is okay. His content is informative enough, and he'll make a few wisecracks without it being too frequent and forced like MajorKill. If he associates with troons, that's a shame, but until he starts bringing it into his videos I won't hold that against him.

Baldemort is meh, he tends to just read excerpts from primary sources without providing much further context.

Also I finished all of Dan abnett's heresy novels and Oh my God that man cannot write

Abnett also writes for Marvel, which explains a lot. The less said about the Cabal and John Grammaticus, the better.

He also tends to throw the reader into the deep end without proper introduction or exposition. Blind-reading Horus Rising for the first time, I thought the opening scene was a flash-forward to the Siege of Terra. "I was there when Horus slew the Emperor", but he doesn't tell you the "Emperor" was just a delusional nutcase till after the fact.

Dan Abnett and reddit. Duh.

 

[Dude Snakes]

I dont really care about Fulgrim. We already knew what he was gonna roughly look like with the HH model. Im still waiting to see the rest of the range.

My only issue with this model is he isn’t using 4 weapons. The old model of him from the 80s had 3 swords and a lash tentacle. Overall a good model.

 

[daniel day]

Daemon fulgrim looks really fucking sick, and Im absolutely chuffed thinking about the EC release next year. I might actually have to get and paint the primarchs now, Ive been putting them off because Im not really the biggest primarch fan.

As for the HH forge world NuFulgrim and his brittle ass wings, its really easy to either magnetize his wings for easy moving, or use thin copper/bronze wire to make the connecting points much stronger. Just make sure you dont skimp on the magnets, or youll regret it.

Does it mean it's gone for good? Probably not. But it's amusing to think of the reaction if GW did go ahead and undo it in 11th, isn't it?

To think the 10th Codex rewrite and that xitter stunt was such a shitstorm they had to course correct by retconning the Custodes back to being a brotherhood. One of the GW moments of all time.

 

[Humble Architect]

I read Devil’s Trappings, the Marines Malevolent short story, reaffirming my belief that one of them should’ve been the space marine companion for Rogue Trader, these guys would fit that game’s writing perfectly. Plus it would make sense that the marine is getting out close-combated by an old man.

@Sargon's wife's son, my faction is getting a new range and the Custodes will never be all male again, fag enjoy your trannies.

No one actually plays custodians they're not a good army I play imperial guard and you're gay

Idk what's worst, this retarded lie or your garbage grammar that is still somehow worst then mine.

48% win rate for the entirety of the pariah nexus season isn't amazing, but it's fine. There's more people playing custodes than GSC, SW, dark eldar, votann, DW(lol), admech, GK, BT, and chaos knights. There's damn near as many custodes players as there are codex complaint space marine chapter players. People play it because other than the FW models(which you can get recast elsewhere or just 3d print the things) the army is cheap with a lower model count than a lot of others.

[I (Don't) Have A Gun]

That book wasn't written by the same team, and was originally advertised months ago(back in July). Meaning it was likely written before the custodes codex. Really, it doesn't mean shit.

My thinking as well. Game Workshop does not have a lore bible or anyone responsible for lore consistency cross their various departments. An example off the top of my head is SoBs Repentia having plug points on their body despite the lore being that SoBs don't have the black carapace and so they'd have nothing to plug into.
This was likely written before the retcon, and no one cared or was responsible for updating it.

He did, but he had a black library book come out just a month ago(the votann one, high khals oath or whatever). A lot of these authors bounce between companies for work without needing to have an exclusivity deal. ADB has had an ongoing series outside of black library for basically a decade. Dan Abnett has written Doctor Who and other shit as well including a short story for League of Legends of all things.

I think Black Library just contracts out the books. The authors are just mercenaries not full time employees. So they get to branch out.

Definitely. They've got a stable of regular authors they contract to, and sometimes even the better ones just basically write whatever they're told to as mercenary authors(like Indomitus, I think Gav Thorpe wrote that trash pile?), but they definitely aren't exclusive writers. Simple enough to include in the contract that you can't talk about a new book till the corporate office decides to announce a new one, and only an idiot author would make a serious leak and risk what is basically a reliable gig just for internet points.

 

[Pedophobe]

That's a feature not a bug. Fuck canon. Canon shot killed all my homies. Let a million meltabombs bloom.

 

[AncientPhosphur]

No one actually plays custodians they're not a good army

I like the lore from the books with their sisters of silence balancing them out… I was going to get the new patrol box and would have a full Custodes army (just have the old patrol box with SoS) but they made femstodes and turned me off. Plus SoS are largely useless in tabletop

If I do get back into full 40k it’ll probably just be a Night Lords army but chaos on the tabletop feels so bland unless you’re taking daemons or Abaddon. So probably just shifting into Epic HH or just HH.

 

[ShitLurker]

Releasing the 30k Fulgrim really stole the thunder of the plastic model. It's great, but I like the 30K one more.

On the custodes thing, I will believe it's retconned if the next Custodes codex has the old wordimg. Till then it's pure gray.

Also, any rumours on when tje Eldar releases will come out? I want that Warp Spider Phoenix Lord.

The only positive thing to come out of custodes is all the blinged out bits I’ve pilfered for my EC, Allarus Terminators in particular are a much cheaper alternative for an EC praetor.

Stay away from epic HH, that system has “to be discontinued” written all over it.

 

[Tri-Tachyon'sClown]

even has Kharn in it.

Eh, I prefered it when Kharn was at least semi-lucid, if not just 30k Kharn as a whole (I haven't really touched anything 30k too much yet but I do read snippets and summaries from time to time just to at least try to keep up with the lore). But when he goes off in that book I hope it's hard as fuck like this:

I do know of THIS FUCKER and I know him too well. TJGD.

It's amazing how every time I see you post you're either incomprehensibly retarded or pretty alright with no in-between.

I read Devil’s Trappings, the Marines Malevolent short story, reaffirming my belief that one of them should’ve been the space marine companion for Rogue Trader, these guys would fit that game’s writing perfectly. Plus it would make sense that the marine is getting out close-combated by an old man.

Amazing, I'll add that to my list of things to read soon. I'll take them over a fucking Space Wolf in most situations, let alone Rogue Trader. I swear they're one of the most perfectly fitting chapter in "the grim darkness of the far future" that is Warhammer.
