I think most of their sales are from Imperium buys anyway so HH makes sense and it’s easier to transition over to 40k epic if sales of HH do well (as far as I know they didn’t)

It probably doesn't help that outside of tanks their pricing is shit. Oh you want 5 more bases of terminators? Get fucked buy more of the entire infantry boxes you don't want. Want a couple more deredeos? Too bad buy another entire support box when you weren't interested in 90% of the contents.
That may have been the strategy,but Im doubtful it worked. Whenever there's a new batch of releases for it at the local store(not GW) it sells but I've never seen anyone playing it or even really discussing it. There doesn't appear to be a big tournament scene for it and that's fine but there's also rarely and usually never events for it at big gaming events like nova open, lvo, the stupid championship weekend, etc and those events also have things for a lot of the other GW games . And general gaming conventions I've seen huge tables for boarding action(including 1 setup where they used the McFarlane figures so the scale was huge) combat patrol demos and so on... But nothing ever for legions imperialis.

I fucking hate the epic-scale shit, it ruined the momentum of HH Thursdays and the stupid limeys can’t even keep up production for their main three systems let alone all the other games.

Reminds me of this video:
Yeah I can agree with you there on Dread and Remembrancer, Remembrancer can be pretty entertaining outside his videos when he's on his podcast and the AA podcast. Luetin I have an odd feeling about ever since he started going "oh nothing is actually canon" that one video, but I think even he realized how stupid that is and hasn't repeated it. Speaking of Remembrancer, I'd like to recommend his friend Amber King. He's fucking hilarious when he wants to be outside his videos but damn I remember when he first started making content, his Argel Tal video was peak.
Fair, when it comes to the actual content he's usually a one man show. I rarely hear an obnoxious (sometimes) political quip from him but when he does it just gets a sigh from me and I hope it doesn't happen again in the video. Again if you like a creator, never fucking ever check places where they speak freely, it'll only end in heartbreak.
Yeah pretty much, his voice is neat at least.

That’s spot-on the niche they are, they’re RT marines and I love it. Also their contradictory origins are hilarious.

As a Salamanders fan I'm morally obligated to despise the MM with every fiber of my being, but I cannot deny their complete shamelessness in their dickbaggery is endearing at times.

Would Chaos Malevolents be Malal Trollmarines, or circle back onto being deceptively nice Tzeentch bastards?

That's just the Iron Warriors. Though unlike Malevolents, they hate fun and wouldn't be gambling amongst each other on which POWs make it across the minefield.

I hate Femstodes.
Not because of the lore change or the attitude GW brought in their 'there always was' comment but because of these content creators who would starve in the street if they didnt create the click/ragebait.
Hobby channnels? They have talent.
Reading an article and yelling? Untalented hacks who would be long dead at any other point in history.

So it's exactly what I said it likely was. That part of the book was done before the other shit went public. He said "miniature" there isn't one, yet. If there is eventually, most people will just continue to not give a shit while the grifter channels rage to an audience that doesn't play, and GW sells a femstodes mini to a bunch of consoomers who probably won't even paint the stupid thing but make up for the loss in sales of custodes players who aren't interested.
Seriously, the flood of bitching about it is more annoying than the femstodes themselves at this point. Now we're going to be hearing about it for another 2 months as people try to make insane claims about GWs half year financial report, how the Cavill show still hasn't been finished yet, etc.

What really slays me about this faggot, is him having garbage like "Protecting da culture" splattered across his fuckin youtube chanell. Either this fuck is trying REALLY hard to sell the "muh kultur warz" shit (and judging by his chanell not well) or hes full retarded and believes all this shit. Also, correct me if Im wrong, but usually a mini is made RIGHT along the new book? Cause, when they released an Ork novel "Kunnin but Brutal", GW already had a mini to go along side said book.

tl;dw: In a hive city, getting a window is a luxury.
BTW he seems to make good immersive vids on setting.
When the custodes codex dropped, they released a weird looking wide shield captain model, but it's definitely still a man.
The author himself probably doesn't give a shit either and wasn't paying attention, or maybe leaked that there's another model coming and like I said, people actually playing won't bother with it or will convert it back to looking male, and some stupid "allies" will buy it just for the sake of buying it. But I don't find any of that likely any time soon. They just announced the store anniversary models, so it's not that. I think there's a few more months to go for the new wh+ subscription model, but those are just proxies really without specific rules, so if that's the femstodes model it's a hell of a cop out(and would be funny). I don't think custodes have any finecast characters to replace alongside the release of a new book either, so that also doesn't seem like it would fit.
Either way, these fucks have given femstodes more air-time than GW themselves have at this point. And before someone tries to claim I'm "protecting the wokies" or whatever the fuck, no I don't want femstodes either. I just complained about GW's shitty business/pricing on the last page even. It's just that the shit gets to a point where it's obnoxious, especially when it's coming from fucking tourists at best.

There will never be another non-female HQ Custodes mini. Every single HQ going forward will be Female.
The basic units they can play off as either. But HQs are where they'll let the activist modelers do progressive portfolio pieces. (See also: Infinite Primaris Lieutenant Works, now with Tactical Rocks!)

Sad how people don't realize they're getting farmed by grifters like cows. I will never be surprised by the boundless stupidity of parts of the human race. He also seems to repeat content a lot. so it's unsurprising that he basically uploads the same video twice.
I know it's 7 years ago but this looks exactly like how I'd imagine he looks.
I'd say the opposite unless you enjoy factories (or a straight up corpse grinding servitors that make Corpse-Starch if you're particularly unlucky or can't read the room regarding why people are willingly dumbing bodies in the street) smog, constant visible suffering, and an easy way to get a mouthful of said smog when a stray round breaks the aforementioned window.

Well, he sure looks like a guy with an IQ of 75 whos only triumph was becomin an assistant manager at a Dollar store.

Feels like to compensate for Space Marines being all men, every piece of anciliary media I see has girlboss guard officers and commissars.
It's a bit humdrum.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, you are constantly scolded by women."
Fuck me, that's too dark.
Can't I just get my skull reaved like the old days?

Yeah but every codex looking like a Tom’s of Finland catalog gets old after a while, I’m not sure what the happy middle is.
If you're buying wargaming supplements to wank off to, I can see why that might be a concern, but there's literally three whole factions that consist of distilled fetish material already.
Don't make me use the coom broom.
Besides, the women they shoehorn in aren't even hot.
They're all hatchet-faced one-eyed lesbians with boy hair.
Which is what I thought cool girls were like when I was in my "Chasing my friends with poo on a stick" developmental stage.
And mutilated masculinized women front and center all the time, acting out a strangled parody of masculinity to prove that they are "manlier than the men" just seems like a feeble and badly couched attempted repudiation of *actual* femininity.
Like the mirror version of the emasculated male cutouts that populate girl-centric media.
