Warhammer 40k

This is probably going to be an dumb as hell question but fuck it, is there any """based""" non-grifting Warhammer content creator? I want to keep a list of them because it's only a matter of time before more and more Warhammer content creators old and new will shoehorn in troonery, unwanted politicking, and other unwanted nonsense. And since I'm asking this question let me ask another probably dumb as hell question, is there a list of people whose content you would recommend avoiding? Especially "well known" content creators. I have my suspicions of Mr.Bones since he associates with a few troons. I hope Baldermort isn't someone I should avoid...on purpose, I forgot about him for a while now and haven't seen his latest stuff, though he associates with Majorkill (raincheck) so probably.
One that's actually "based" but isn't some whiny retard? They don't exist. At best you get content creators that are obviously left leaning at a minimum but leave the politics out of it, but that's mostly on the painting side of things. Not lore or gameplay. They're either whiny morons who haven't played in years and bitch about everything GW does like it's the end of the fucking world, or they're just right wing grifters instead of woke morons from the left.
he most recent Tau codex IIRC gave the Kroot a subfaction or some shit and you can run a Kroot army...I don't think it's good but you can. Kroot are more "supporting/specialized units" of the entire Tau empire so it's probably better to run a "mostly" Kroot than Tau. I could also be wrong and retarded so please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't want to be like the other guy on here who got BTFO'd a while back for pretending to know what he was talking about (in fact I haven't seen him since).
Kroot have a detachment in the codex(kroot hunting pack), and there's also a joint species detachment that Tau just got the other week(auxiliary cadre) that does shit like force opponents to re-target kroot instead of shooting at Tau assets(among other things).
Really the biggest problem kroot have is that for the most part, they're Tau chaff units so running an army of them is never going to be great due to them not having much(like wanting to run an all grot ork army, or an all cultist chaos army, shit like that) in addition to being t3 6+(but it makes sense due to most of them having scout, infiltrator, stealth, etc.), or a whopping t6 5+ for the mounted units. Vespid are at least t4 4+. Tau auxiliary races really are just a "fluff" thing for GW for a while now, but at least the new detachment tries to cater to people who want that.

If you want to see a real dumpster fire of a mixed up army that doesn't need to exist, Imperial Agents does it far worse than Tau. However GW wanted an excuse to sell a codex for a bunch of units imperial players were taking as allies.
 
I dont really care about Fulgrim. We already knew what he was gonna roughly look like with the HH model. Im still waiting to see the rest of the range.

My YouTube recommends have a bunch of "40k abandoned by FLGS! GW is cooked!" type click bait as of late.

Do you guys think it's worth getting into 40k in Current Year? I've been vaguely interested in playing for over a decade now but my only actual tabletop experience playing it was a demo game of Kill Team 5 years ago.
My favorite subfactions are the Kroot and Death Korps and seems like the Kroot have gotten a decent amount of support this year (even if they still suck according to this thread recently?) and Death Korps are getting some new models next year too so I figure if I'm going to get into the game now is as good a time as any. I've already got a decent painting/modelling setup from when I used to paint/kitbash RPG minis so I won't have to invest in that at least.
Short answer. No.
Long answer. It's complicated.

If you have the money and it looks interesting to you, sure, why not. You already have a minis background so you should known if it's your thing. However, the game is supposedly in a bad place, while the hobby, business, and community sides are a shadow of their former selves. If you're new and lack that experience, it might not bother you.

If Death Korps are your bag, I recommend looking into third party models. A great thing about any guard sub-faction is that GW doesn't have the copyright on space soldier, so there's lots of third party options in plastic or 3D print. So might be a good way to fill out an army.
 
DreadAnon.
I mean he did get his start in 4chan, unsurprising. However I'm not entirely convinced he isn't just slightly less normie than the average normalfag. Then again he could just not want to be banned off the platform if he says something like "niggerman" again.
"Wait, it's all grifting?"
"Always has been (since the culture wars)."
Well, speak of the retard.
Something involving clocks and working.
Give or take, yap.
"Just wanted to make sure my sources were straight man! Totally not just a fat fuck who can't do proper research to save his life!" Christ the Henry Cavill head in the thumbnail too, 67,000 views in only 6 hours, it's just sad. Would be hilarious if Henry just told these guys to fuck off already.
 
Maybe it was the GW trailer but he looks huge.
He does look pretty big, but I'm assuming he'll wind up being about the same size as his brothers. I'm actually quite psyched about the model in general. It looks cool and they've got the Hellraiser aesthetic I was hoping for with that flayed-open section on his stomach. Plus he's got a copy of Fireblade because he still can't let go of Ferrus telling him to fuck off when he tried to recruit him for Team Horus. Good reveal. Excited to see the rest of the new Noise Marines whenever they get around to showing those off.

Lets assume this fucker's as tall as an Armiger; I don't think that's unreasonable. His wings are just as tall or taller than him. We're talking 10-12" or so here, aren't we? And it's going to be resin, so those wings are going to last maybe one trip to/from the gaming table before they snap off.
That's the forgeworld horus heresy version from a year or two ago. It would be really weird for the 40k version to be resin, when mortarion, angron, and magnus are plastic. This is the new 40k fulgrim

his latest version of the daemonic Third Primarch joins his brothers Magnus, Mortarion and Angron as a plastic kit. Just like them, he appears corrupted by ten thousand years of exposure to the Warp – the difference between his new form and the Fulgrim Transfigured miniature from the Horus Heresy shows the effect the Empyrean can have on even the most willing of daemonic tyrants.

I would find it more funny if Cavill or someone would threaten a lawsuit at this dicksnot.

I really regret not buying the HH version of Fulgrim when I had the spare cash because of how good it looks. I don't even have emperor's children as an army but as a display piece few things beat how it looks.

I can see the video titles now if Cavill ever got litigious about his face being used in thumbnails all the time. Henry Cavill dmca true Warhammer fans!? Amazon wokehammer show doomed to fail!!! I've said previously in the thread but that man saying he liked Warhammer is probably one of the worst things he could have done for his image.

Trying to sue people on youtube for slapping his face onto everything would probably be a huge mistake. It's easier to just ignore the dumb shit. While these grifters are obnoxious, they have limited reach that isn't mainstream. They aren't raking in millions of views a video whining about how a couple random stores quit carrying GW products.
An then you ask how low IQ does one need to have to believe that any of these grifting fucks are Warhammer fans. Specially this big chungus lookin ass.
Have you seen the average warhammer fan? A lot of them will believe anything if it's a complaint, especially a complaint about warhammer.
