Give them time. The current push is for female marines/custodes (due to a combiantion of forcing the hobby to change to piss off the fans + troons feeling awkward the hobby they like is masculine) but they'll push for LGBTP representation eventually.

Theres already LGBT representation in 40k, they have Slaanesh

Thumbnails, please.


Not realistically how they would do a retraction in such an explicit way. More likely that GW would just never refer to a female Custodian again, particularly four years or so from now when there's an 11th Edition Custodes codex.

Yeah that too, they kinda did that to the Male Wyches.

A lot of GW pandering won’t win over some of the people pissed about their other practices. Irl a lot of the progressive guys I know are still seething about AoS squatting a lot of Sigmarines, chaos beastmen, savage orcs, etc.

Sure, it makes sense to me that the outlier female customers of GW are primarily painters and get into it as a shared hobby with a male relative,

From what I’ve seen they tend to favor the hobby side the most and the competitive gaming the least. When they do play it’s usually casually/narratively and usually with people they know. (Which is still very rare). In terms of tabletop gaming women tend to prefer RPGs over tabletop wargaming. I have never seen a woman paint or play anything from privateer press for example but I’ve seen a ton of them purchase and paint d&d minis.

Sisters have been overwhelmingly played by dudes as long as I can remember. I played them in 3rd ed and back in the early/mid 2000s, I knew of... two other players in the forums, mailing lists etc who were also female. And one of them was married to one of the guy Sisters players.

I have never seen a real woman play sisters of battle let alone collect them. Ever. It’s always the greasiest perv. So naturally a lot of sisters players are trannies. They’ll do cosplay but I have yet to see a woman collect them.

There’s the meme of women collecting tyranids. I’ve even seen them collect various flavors of marines too specifically collecting night lords, flesh testers, carcharodons, soul drinkers, blood angels, and dark angels. With AoS/general fantasy rpg models I’ve noticed they tend to gravitate towards elves (dark, light, and wood), lizardmen, and storm cast. There was one I knew who collected ogres/giants in AoS. Not sure what it is with women and having an army that eats and/or mutilates people…

When the old world first launched I knew a woman in our local community that bought bretonnians and Pegasus knights. I don’t have as much experience with Warhammer fantasy as I do 40K/AoS but it wouldn’t surprise me if women liked bretonnians because of the horses/pegasuses/unicorns/bright color palette.

I totally forgot about it but wasn’t there a book about a female bretonnian knight that was woke?

Gw dun goofed. They already got it done. Female custodes, the wokies smell blood in the water, there will be female marines too. The way they said "Always has been so" means retcons will be on the table for anything.

He got better in one book and now can take it off.
 
If female Custodes are now canon, that means trannies are effectively canon too, because there's no way a biological female could undergo even the Astartes process without becoming a transmale.

Just look at regular female bodybuilders and how masculine they become, then compare that to women who troon out with testosterone. Now imagine a female undergoing the Custodes process which starts before adolescence. The most malleable period of their physical structure is when the Custodes process begins, even earlier than when the Astartes process starts. Never mind all the times The Emperor referred to Custodes as his "men" in the lore.

I saw a tweet pointing out how in the newest Space Marines codex they dropped any mention of the geneseed being only useable on males.

Again, it is not the adding of females that is the problem, it is the reason. Do you understand?

Oh im aware that the problem lies in the horizon. They are testing the waters to see how people will react to the whole Female space marine. Also if they are pulling this shit and they arent being met with enough backlash theyll start to add stuff even if it means disregarding lore or saying fuck it all over. It is a dark time ahead, but as previously stated, i dont have to add whatever they make to my armies or acknowledge the new lore if it aint to my liking.

Trannies who say "as a woman in this hobby..." are the ones stirring up shit all the time, and so many idiots fall for the bait. The trannies are the ones scaring actual women away. The writer for the upcoming space marine 2 game is also a tranny, wtf why are they everywhere?

Can confirm. Too many trannies at my local games, I'm happier painting and reading lore anyway. It's a natural progression from true crime and crafting, I'm surprised more women don't make the leap. But then again, trannies. They more or less didn't exist back in my day.

And yet, they doubled down in the HH book that only men can become marines.

It’s almost as if these things are disposables to be cast aside after two years and they are written by black library soyboys.

Chaos continues to be the greener grass, no Primaris, models are a pain to paint so less shambling trannies (they hate Slaanesh), conversions are a lot more fun and soon, no women.

Also no niggers. They don’t add the melanated headsclupts like they do those Primaris variations.

I didn't even know this was a thing. I've been disconnected finishing The End and the Death Vol 3 and wanted to talk about the end of Horus Heresy and post some minis I painted.

This sucks...
 
I'm not a Warhammer fan, but it's fascinating watching an entire audience launch a fullscale revolt against the product they were fans of in real time.

I feel for the WH bros because it's exactly what I've gone through with SMT and the faggots infesting Persona and ruining it as a whole.

Blokes trooning out and becoming "protect women's spaces" activists is fucked.
All the women I know IRL who table SM armies are perfectly content with the gender norm. Now you can't escape tranny flag themed armies.

The tranny writer of Space Marine 2 deleted Twitter after backlash, likely for being a self-hating white freak. We need to bring back gatekeeping, too many of these disgusting hacks land these big positions seemingly out of thin air.

I hate Harry Potter too.

But definately don't throw your minis out. Either just stash them in a box, or sell them as second hand. I used to get stuff from Ebay when I still did 40k. Did the amazon deal axe the reselling?

Honestly I'm thinking about converting the Heldrake for Kings of War for the Abyssal Dwarves

That's the silver lining i feel the displeasure is more visible now than in other similar declines woth other hobbies. No force awakens period where people are hopeful despite the takeover. Just an immediate and obvious uproar and a sign the hobby is going to suffer monetarily
 
This is basically what happened with the SW fanbase after The Last Jedi came out. Maybe they can talk about how both their franchises got stepped on by DEI/ESG.
