I haven't been there in a long time, didn't know about that. It's a personal thing not trading in paid files though.

Does /tg/ still trade Codex pdfs/epubs? I have no issue being a hypocrite ripping GW off for their expensive books.
I couldn't find a core rule book anywhere, but if you use Yandex.ru you can find the codices available in .pdf form on Russian websites. Google translate helps. I have no idea if it makes a difference but I set my VPN to Ukraine.

If you need a core rule book for 9th edition, I made 2 .pdf's with my phone and could send you a mediafire link. I split the book up between lore and rules.

I gave away my Orks 'dex code already, but I have the SoB and Chaos Knight ones if you want em. I also think my Core Rules code is unused as well.

Oh no, a Twitter Petition. With just barely over 500 signitories. From a degenerate troon! Welp, Now GW has to surrender to the woke horde.

Yeah, it's about Female Space Marines being officially nix'd by GW. They want GW to hire a Sensitivity Reader, a woke czar that would have editorial control over the entire setting, to prevent something "like that" from happening again.

"‘The process by which Space Marines are created relies inherently on the hormonal and biological make-up of the human male, meaning that only males can be subjected to the transformation.’"
Men existing and being different than women is somehow gender critical. Troons are all about the male/female binary yet get butthurt the millisecond they can't exploit it.

You'd think they could find at least another 500 signatures from people that have played the video games.
 
GW hired a shithead to supervise the community and issue takedowns for any iP issues. That was around when the STL MEGA started getting targeted constantly et all. At the same time, for the first I ever noticed, the /tg/ pdfs started getting taken down on the regular, too.

They still host them but last I looked it was harder to get them.

But then again, there's a generic PDF thread usually up. For example:


And it looks like the 40k threads now have a link redirector to the mega. The current files were uploaded today.
Most people are too stupid to use TG and don't try to obfuscate their links. The Mega I use for the pdf's is still up and running and even if it's taken down it's quickly brought back up. You just have to look for that weeks link.

Nearly all troves now use something like rebrand to redirect.

Oh no! Not an online petition with totally real and verifiable people, what ever will we do 30K bros?
If you have the time to be perturbed in anyway by a luxury product or its contents you are privileged. It does matter what side of the fence you sit on, if it annoys you, you’re privileged.
You know no strife, worry, hunger or thirst. I hate you and wish nothing but the worst for you.

I'd get rid of the 500 who signed it for the 1000 who bought it for the youtubers
 
I got into Epic recently. I like how it's small scale in terms of minis but you can have these giant battles. There are loads of files you can print. I found these Heresy era marines in Epic scale. Then made my own bases in Meshmixer. My camera is shit but I am still astonished at the level of detail my Saturn can pump out from such tiny minis.

I'll try Yandex sometime. Already have 9th but thanks!

Appreciate it but while I enjoy reading codexes I don't play SoB and CK, and it sounds like these are onetime codes. So I'd rather you give them to someone who wants to play them.

https://pdfcomic.net/bread/complete-signatory-list/

They nicely provide a list of people that signed onto this thing. Already spotted a few names of content creators:

Goobertown Hobbies (no surprise there)

Arbitrator Ian (is it me or does the guy look like he’s got some skeletons or kidnapped girls chained up in his closet?)

Pete the Wargamer

Oculus Imperia (dissapointment but more surprised that he’s Canadian, guess that explains his support)

Leakycheese

Though these could be faked to drum up support. I did see a signature for a Dumas S. so they aren’t verifying the signatures. If so, someone better put down an Arch W. on that list as he’ll probably make a video about in a day or two. Thankfully I didn’t see an Alfabusa, Auspex Tactics, or Winters SEO on the list.

Actually thinking about it, I don’t know if any of the more well known players of the game are on that list, considering that the line of text that’s making people seethe comes from the Core Rules book. Almost like it’s not the intended audience that’s complaining about it.
 
My interest in Squats went from astronomical to zero when the faces were revealed. If all Squats are clones, I don't know why both genders are present among them in the first place.
They aren't cloned, their sorta custom made from previous genetics vat grown designer manlets.
No, theyre Tau 2
They are Tau with like 20% less commie and 100% less Weeb, that makes them a lot more palletable.

Having actually personally known a few 40k content creators I can tell you with authority they are the most miserable cock gobbling brown nosers you've ever seen. GW make no real effort to treat them special other than occasionally inviting them to events. And making them sign ludicrous NDAs that essentially mean they can be cut off at any point, not allowed to make any 40k content without GW permission, get sued by GW because GW decided to sue them (that is not a typo, They will sue you because they decided to sue you. A double suing.) and there are a growing group of Cosplayers and influencers in my area who are completely okay with gleefully signing this NDA and will defend GWs every decision to fuck over the consumer. Unless it interferes with their personal politics of course. They do it for free too. And of course they operate under the delusion that as long as they kiss arse GW will never do what they've already done to other content creators they don't like.

Unless those names are fake, watch these people make incredible walk backs soon when GW put pressure on them. Or for them to suddenly decide to stop making 40k content in general.

Why would cosplayers have to sign an NDA? Are they getting let in on industry secrets?

No. Not at all. Okay, because it's one big nepotistic club house they probably know people who leak things to them. But it's just that the NDA has loads of clauses in it saying what a person can and can't do and say. Which suits Games Workshop fine. They want full control of the influencers inside the fandom.

The fact that people are still signing the NDA after the last one (or current one, if it hasn’t changed) was leaked means they deserve what they get. NGL kinda envy that they got the new contrast paints but that shit isn’t worth selling my soul.

Edit: Speaking of NDA’s winterSEO may have just broken his on tonight’s live stream by accidentally flashing the new plastic leviathan dreadnaught box lol.

So does GW try to stop cosplayers that won't cooperate? I can see them making copyright claims on social media stuff but are they gonna follow you to a con and make demands? Seems like it would be pretty easy to ignore them.

It is easy to ignore. Provided you didn't sign a contract that says GW has control over whether you produce Warhammer fan content or not. What they try to do is take advantage of already existing cosplay cliques. There's nothing forcing them from signing an NDA or "buisness partnership" as they've taken to calling it. But a lot do because they "want to be taken seriously". And it's so nice a company they love so much has finally noticed them. Which is a big problem with a lot of cosplayers, modders and other fan creators. There's no money exchanged. They do it for free. Because every once in a while their connections will chuck them a free model kit or two and tell them they're "really important" Technically GW and all other companies could send C&Ds to every cosplayer. Even the ones in shitty paintball and airsoft armour who pretend that's an Imperial Guard cosplay. They choose not to because it's much more effective to hire a whole clique of cosplayers who all know each other and multiple members already are familiar with GW staff in some capacity. Those cosplayers and influencers get to go to GW sponsored events, and GW blow smoke up their arses. Because GW do this, those people then become massive kiss arses and grasses who police the community for Games Workshop and other companies. That clique then blacklist people they don't like. Sometimes for the pettiest of reasons. They just never clock on that GW will fuck with them eventually and leave them in a position where they signed a contract that now means they can't do Warhammer cosplays or Warhammer videos or Warhammer content in public in general. And if they just didn't sign that contract they'd be fine.

I knew what was up when my friend who did a really popular Warhammer cosplay that got her into 100k followers on Instagram got ghosted by these people after asking how to get into the cosplayer Warhammer world events. They still won't say exactly why. Despite her having more followers than all of them combined. The most popular one they had was just under 1k. But I told her I suspect it has to do with her critical views on GW policy towards fan creations. Later on she emailed GW directly asking if she could get invited, sent along her media kit and social media reach and all that stuff. They ignored it. Which on it's own is fine. But she later got a very bizarre and passive aggresive unprovoked DM from the head of the Warhammer clique basically telling her they don't want her but wouldn't specify why and what bought this up in the first place. This happened within a day of her sending the email. From someone allegedly unrelated to Games Workshop in an employment sense. Which boggles my mind considering these are autistic idiots who are in their 30's and 40's with kids and a family, in badly painted over paintball gear wanting to play nerd politics like a 13 year old girl. But it ilustrates the situation that these are petty people who will do GW's dirty work. And they don't realise how much of a stooge they are.
