Their kits are 12+ and even FW shit is only 15+ ain't it? I feel like advertising to children is not too far
I suppose that children and fat neck beards are their core market though I suppose I expect any books should aim at least for the high school level given it's Grimderp. Though you'd expect them to do Ork stories for younger audience given the black comedy nature of the Orks at the macro level
 
So I was looking at the Age of Sigmar thread and it seems like it can't decide if it wants to earnestly talk about AoS or if it wants to hate and make fun of AoS. How would people feel about me making a dedicated AoS hate thread about making fun of the worst game GW has made? When new AoS models come out with more sheboons and trannies people can post pics and make fun of it there, people can post memes about AoS and so on
 
Troon Crusade is revealing Prussians for a bespoke plastic kit, first company I've seen that gets out plastics easier than 3d printed resin out, but the kickstarter did give them an obscene amount of capital they're seemingly barely harnesssing

Its also slightly hilarious that this is actually more modular than their own kits

And hilariously enough they've managed to piss off the 3D printing hobbyists by confirming that these models won't be available as STLs. It's like they wished on a monkey paw to be successful, and now no matter what they do they're upsetting someone.

Honestly may not be the place for it but even with everyone saying that 3d printing will replace companies like GW, shit like this is why it appears more like a fad/bubble that really doesnt have all that much substance to it, kind of like kickstarter.

They really fucked up by having it be sculpts/faction the people wanted like the Prussians, they should've just done it for the Heretics and just stuck to their guns on having two offerings, OPR and some others already did that and they seem like they will be fine

It would never replace ready to buy variants because of the cleanup for resin, but FDM is decent enough to manage for larger pieces like terrain and vehicles, and its a boon for shops to have FDM shit for that. Resin is a decent enough option for enthusiasts, but anyone marketing to the everyman is severly overestimating its impact
 
Does 40k 7th edition need a whole thread?
Well played, but nothing will ever be as bad as AoS 1st edition which was deliberately made into a bad game to drive away all the old fantasy fans. To activate abilities in your armies you were mechanically required to autistically yell as loud as you can to activate an ability and things like that
 
So the minis for the Starcraft tabletop game finally got shown off at Spiel 2025 after being announced what seems like a year and a half ago, being produced by Archon Miniatures.

I didn't pull all of the images, there's more in the article. They're apparently doing alt sculpts for stealth variants, had a prototype jim raynor that no one seems to have gotten an image of. The Terran goliath is supposed to be the size of a 40k imperial knight, etc. The Zerg and Protoss stuff looks a hell of a lot better than the Terran models.

Oh lmao, Goliath must've been one of the main inspirations for this thing.

made me remember
 
So I know this thread is sick of the female space marine convo at this point. This is about thw custodes however. Theyre supposed to be getting some new models since there was a teaser image this summer in the horus heresy preview of a guardian spear. So whether or not there is a female model/s when that wave is shown off I feel like may indicate where gw plans to go from here as far as pandering to the woke crowd goes. Im not very optimistic but I still felt like pointing it out.
