Warhammer 40k

[augment]

I don't think it's bad at all. They obviously want this lol.

It's also spawned a huge cottage industry of interesting proxies with more character than geedubs could come up with.

Not to mention a flourishing hobby paints market. Some, like Duncan Rhodes TTC range which directly benefit from having citadel paint alternatives.
It's still incredible how some colors are seemingly an in-house sauce that can't be easily mimicked though, like pallyd wych flesh or skrag brown.

 

[Pedophobe]

The unfailing devotion of GW paypigs isn't all bad. Everything I've sold thus far has turned a substantial profit.

Are you buying battleforces and selling the bitz individually or something? Or RARE OOP? Or not adjusting for inflation? Please explain.

I started on the second kan while I wait on some green stuff to finish the first. This one is going for a pogo stick clown theme because 'umies is scared of clowns

I'm hearing some random whispers that GW was gigaretarded when they signed up with Amazon. Basically, because of a very retarded contract, they gave Amazon full creative control in exchange for Amazon not giving any sort of publicity or storefront to 40K knockoff models. The rest is what we have already heard and imagined about Amazon wanting female space marines, Cavil being pissed about it, and femstodes being the shitty middle ground to try and comply with Amazon, but this little piece of the puzzle would explain why the hell Amazon seems to be calling so many shots.

My sources are shit at the moment though, this is more in case anybody hears about anything similar.

Your “source” is /tg/ autists and it’s cope.

All the BS is GW, it’s always been them and their stable of soy-fed underpaid “writers”.

OOP Start Collecting boxes, mostly.

Agreed.

Maybe you should trust my dad who works with Jim at his workshop who says Henry Cavil is demanding he eats one GW employee a month so he can better understand the Night Haunter for his series

Even the grifters on youtube have moved past this 4chan crap for a few days now.

My source was even more random, but I always have to go back that yes, GW is retarded, but models are involved. The whole femstodes being something mainly pushed by Amazon is what makes thing make sense. If not, where is the lesbian haircut custodes model on 100mm base with overelaborate crap to usher in the new age of whamenstodes?

That’s Doomcock level retarded. This is people making shit up.

Not only do I doubt Amazon know what a Custodes is but the entire thought that a company the size of GW would bow to Amazon for a TV streaming series Amazon are paying GW so Amazon can make it is even more retarded.

GW’s fuck ups are self inflicted. Maybe a senior member of staff or two trooned out, maybe the CEO’s wife got a new boyfriend, but the stupity is in house.

Please all, fuck off with the Blackrock, Amazon, ESG conspiracy theories.

GW got so big it’s got arrogant. It’s just on a weird business trend after that trend started to become unfashionable because they want to impress Twitter.

It’s not that complicated.

Retard, that’s insane. Amazon has never meddled with a core property during any of their partnerships. Are they revising thr reprints of The Boys? Or Invincible?

How fucking hard is it to accept that the paragraph was the work of a woke BL writer and editorial was too stupid to catch it?

Don’t be stupid.

No they have not. I'm still getting 40K videos from the grifters in my morning inbox.

Not only that, but as far as I've heard, Black Library authors like Aaron-Dembski Bowden were the ones who pushed for Femstodes from the start. They eventually got their wish. Gatekeeping is useless when your enemies were the ones inside the gate all along.

Anyone who isn't wise to the fact that they originally made 40K as left-wing propaganda is fooling themselves. It was always leftist agitprop; you just had a break in the propagandizing between 3rd-7th editions when they made it a straightforward dark science fantasy, but now they're bringing it back to what they originally intended; pissing off conservatives who like Thatcher and Reagan.

They took you along for the ride, but now that they have their paypigs, they no longer need you.

 

[Sayer of the N-Word]

Ya know, curvy pinup Taus chicks I can roll with. Im more sad that you rarely see people do mix of models for the Tau, sure ya got Kroots. But, I rarely saw makin like Tau troope of Imperial Guardsmen or like using Necromunda stuff from it.

The GW community is the most conservative I've ever seen despite all the trannies, and the idea of mixing the models up a little is sure to send them into a tizzy, even if you stay within canon. Remember, this is the same community where people are afraid to photograph miniatures that have identifiable third party components.

Lol, for real?

 

[The tired cat]

Oh ye, why wouldn't you wanna piss off those guys, who are jacking off to two brainless retards. Not to mention, these conservatives are probably either six feet under or never cared about 40k in the first place.

Thaaaat is the saddest shit I've heard, like fuckin' wow.

 

[Sayer of the N-Word]

Lol, for real?

Miniatures with third party pieces are banned from GW stores and events, and any lover of drama would love to fuck someone over by getting them evicted from a tournament for illegal pauldrons. There's also an old urban legend that GW stores have a policy that forces employees to seize and destroy such miniatures by throwing them into a fire. I choose to believe that this is true because it's very funny.

I mean yeah, that's pretty funny lol.

Have a little furnace in the back and a "shut it down" alarm.

I imagine it looking something like this scene 80 seconds in:

 

[Kharash]

Yeah GW really don't need external influences like Amazon to do retarded shit. You have to realize that the people who decide to write for GW are your quintessential bri'ish lefty cuck. You know, the kind who make video essays on Youtube.
Collected a bunch of cringe statements by ADB in particular over the years on /tg/ but others like Mike Brooks and Gav Thorpe are right up there. I'm pretty sure ADB mentioned wanting to do female custodes before but got shut down by the few remaining people with sense at the time. Seems I forgot to save that though.

"B-b-but muh BASED grimdark sci fi!"

Never has been. Never will be. GW being GW and people trying to cope about it.
