The new Necromuda set looks pretty dope. The one issue I have with it is the lack of terrain included. I get it's supposed to be in the depths of the underhive but the inclusion of some walkways for elevation and some scatter terrain like barrels would have gone a long way with the set.
If I decide to buy the set I might make a 3D version of the board to help with immersion in the game.

Just set up empty beer cans and cardboard boxes like I used to do when I was (am) poor. Also feels weird using 40k minis in a log cabin in the woods but hey it’s table top.
 
My only experience with Discord is having a bunch of idiots toss slurs all over the place, so I clocked out. That was at least two years ago, maybe three. It was worthless.
So yeah, this update from the community happenings thread, seems the discord for some pokemon mod blew up with outraged trannies in the exact way I said it would happen. They got in, kept quiet, the moment they had enough of them there and had an "incident" to use as an event to trigger their bullshit, they made it entirely useless for everyone involved just so they could spam tranny shit when it has nothing to do with what the discord server was for.

Trannies spamming, making accusations, trying to get trannies as mods, weirdos making statements like they're trying to groom the entire fucking server, it's disgusting.
 
The TC news has been pretty bad for me personally. I have spent the better part of the last decade doing amateur ttrpg design (for personal use) and in the last year pivoted to the creation of a platoon scale fantasy wargame which I had intended on releasing for playtesting by end of this year. This was meant to be my big attempt at getting into tabletop design as a career, a lifelong dream, and I had set aside a few thousand USD for paying artists for marginalia/art so people might actually consider buying/trying my game.

With the TC news it feels like I missed the boat. I wanted to get an apolitical or right leaning artist for book art and likewise for a sculptor. But I can't advertise that because I will invariably either get brigaded by the terminally online troons for not being a commie, or I will attract right wing grifters looking to just get in and start drama. I want to create something fun and engaging with good rules, but the culture war is now here on the doorstep and I won't be able to run from it. I could learn to do my own art, a mere 5+ year investment, then learn sculpting so I can produce my own miniature line, another 3-4 year investment. Maybe in 11 years when I can write my own rules, do my own art, sculpt my own minis will I be able to take the risk of making my own wargame.

The honest truth is get woke go broke doesn't seem to really be true. If I just gave in I could have sculptors and artists tomorrow, I could open my llc to investment for DEI and ESG money and I would be taking almost no risks myself. Even if I failed my name would be in the community and I could likely get work at another firm riding on blackrock cash. The people saying "I won't give GW money for femstodes!" weren't their paypiggies anyway. I know the IRL whales and they will slurp up this slop just as greedily as the last bit of plastic GW put out.
I mean I designed TTRPG's well I did I don't do it anymore due to the fact of reasons I've stated previously but most people don't care generally stop thinking these screeching harpies represent any sizeable minority a people they don't even the progressives I know who like D&D hate these people
 
I’ve been away for a bit but I gotta say, HH range continues to dab on the 40k range. Plastic Mechanicum without gay steampunk shit for the win!

These Necromunda coomer Genestealers are adorable
View attachment 6005185
Love these things
Yeah, those genestealers are fucking sweet. I don't know who's been working on Nid models lately, but they've been knocking it out of the park.
 
It had mixed results among players. They then split them back out into the GK/SoB for 5e, with 7e keeping that but letting them bring allied detachments.
I liked it but I understand why others didn’t.
 
Will sell off my unpainted stuff that I can. So some HH plastics.

I am done with most 40k projects I was obliged to finish, from July I'll be free of Faghammer forever.

More money for Azure Lane.
 
Is it just me or are the /tg/ jannies being extra anal in regards to Trench Crusade? Any of the critic or threads for it are silenced, I always heard rumors the guys who manage /tg/ were bad but its almost like they are attached to Trench Crusade.

Maybe they donated a big amount of cash for it? Like, one of those tiers where you get your name in the book or exclusive model made?
 
After all the tranny culture war kvetching about Warhammer being better without chuds and a core building block of the hobby (discount boxes) is worse than its previous iteration after a major yearly price increase


GW's gambit is going to pad out some personal pockets and seemingly compensate all the pay piggies leaving by just selling to the (admittedly rare) zealot with actual money
 
you have been corrupted by slaanesh

Hey AL has no trannies. That is now an upside to 40k.

Making an enemy of the tradcaths is a bad thing,

Don't know. They are everyone's punching bag because fundies can only reee but without sjw clout. They are the safest geoup to piss off the weakest. Try it with arabs and see they go durka durka chimpout in a second.

The failure to include a codex with these boxes has always baffled me. Yeah I know more money but these are effectively the starter box for each faction so it would make sense to do so. Continue to sell the codex separately for anyone who doesn't want the box or already has the faction from previous editions of the game and they would fly off the shelves.
It's even more horrible to think right now they cost £95 but that they may go up too or over £100 in a short couple of weeks.

Not necessarily. They have way more friends online than Fundies do. Even people who don't practice the faith and are ''cultural conservatives'' will leap to their defense. SJWs are the punching bag, because lashing out at them has become an industry.

My guess is they prepared themselves in advance for the right-wingers who might view TC as a refuge for their crusader-larping, after seeing the Chuds get mad at GW over Warhammer.

After all the things the Chudhammer fans protest, price increases are the least important in their eyes.
 
AS someone outside the hobby is it safe to say trench crusade got cucked?

Also how hard is it to build your own game system? I've never played any tabletop wargame or skirmish game but the rules for most seem like they exist or are the way they are only because its "part of the experience" or because other games have them

They literally think they own the TC community / fandom, and want to ensure it stays that way, that's all. They all recognize this on an instinctive level, so they don't have to prepare themselves. They "own" the TC fandom right now thanks to 28mag worming their way into ta community management role, and are going to gatekeep the fuck out of it if they can.

Exactly. And they don't want Chudhammer refugees escaping Wokehammer 40K coming over to their side.

Anyone can do that, yes. Most just choose not to and await the official books from GW to come by so they can pick it up for a price.

Nothing new there at all. This has been the case with the combat patrol boxes since the start of 10th edition.

Continue to sell the codex separately for anyone who doesn't want the box or already has the faction from previous editions of the game and they would fly off the shelves.

The codexes are really the absolute worst part about the shit, especially these days. Even years back, you could just buy the faction rule sets in the warmahordes app(mk3) for I think $80 as a one time purchase, and just have them all meaning you could actually see what the hell your opponent's rules were. not that you even needed to do that in the app, since you could just get the PDFs of the cards for free off the website.

But back to 40k and the shitty codexes. It's especially ridiculous when literally half the damned units for an army(like custodes) aren't even in the damned codex to begin with. I've also seen GW simps talk about how the like the art, and the lore... most of the art has been recycled for years now, and the lore is generally bullshit anyway. $60 for a book of mostly recycled fluff, a useless points page that's outdated by the time it launches, and the moment a balance update happens there's a possibility the rest of the rules are now out of date as well. And to continually make it shittier... GW expects people to buy a $60 codex just for the code in the back to unlock the shit in their app that costs another $60/year and doesn't even have the option to buy just the rules within the app at a discount or even full price just to avoid dealing with a useless book. Then on top of that, once the fucking book DOES come out, if someone were using the app the "free" index rules get locked the Thursday before the actual release of the codex on Saturday so you can't even access the "free" rules you did have in the couple days leading up to the launch of the codex. Fortunately wahapedia, newrecruit, etc. exist but it's fucking stupid.

The Cadia Stands box which was just a glorified combat patrol did exactly that
And the codex was outdated in less than 6 months
 
28 mag is as woke as you can get*, and they collabed on the discord. It wasn't just a fan project.

Safe to say it got more woke aids than San Fransisco got regular aids.

*Featuring female space marines, space marine gay love, etc. Yes, there is space marine muscle men porn on there. Gay porn.
