Warhammer 40k

Gay retard noises
Yeah man sucks about the sprues being so hard to figure out for retards that’s why all the boxes have detailed instructions and labels on the sprue to make it easier for people like you. Your whole argument falls flat with that. Something you’d know if you actually buy 40k. I even managed to get my dark imperium box pur together after losing that booklet too.

"Just pull the plug. Please."
 
I think it’s always funny when people who obviously aren’t actually members of the hobby give their takes on this stuff, like there is a delusional image of what being in the 40k hobby is like to the pol-scrollers who hover around looking for the next thing to sperg out about.

If anyone wants to know the actual community response most of us don’t care all that much about Custodes having women, it’s a complete nothing inclusion and Custodes are not Astartes so they don’t actually have any good reason to be male only. The vast majority response is that these new models rock and they objectively do. Having Custodes vehicles leave resin is going to print an insane amount of money and this will sell out a hundred times over. They’re also just much better than the Custodes models we got back in 7th and 8th with the dumb old baby head proportions. If you went to any painting or game table and started talking like niggas are talking here everyone would think you’re a deranged faggot. I’ve had over a decade in the hobby so I speak with authority in this, GW will be fine lmao no one actually gives a shit.

Also everyone knows GW’s studio sucks ass at painting faces and that they’re always much better than the preview images make them look, it’s just how every preview is.
It's not surprising the guy that couldn't clock the obvious olypmics boxing tranny is here defending troonstodes.
 
On the topic of model building. I've only built two AoS armies but I didn't have too much trouble with either of them. There were a few I had issues with (ushoran's cape) but over all they seem easy to build.
Also having issues deciding on a 40k army. I've narrowed it down to either Word Bearers or Red Corsairs.
For the most part I find building GW models enjoyable, but I see Kofi Drinka's point.
The way GW split some models up on the sprue for the sake of their bottom line takes the piss at times.
For example the Flesh Eater Courts Abhorrent Archregent model from AOS has its head split in two right down the middle of the face. Have fun hiding that seam.

This Kofi nigga would have a seizure if he looked at press fit warhammer quest stuff
 
Here is GW's latest patronizing statement. @AncientPhosphur don't look.

Let’s address the Telemon in the room, shall we?

Yes. Some of those awesome new Custodes miniatures are female.

Is this a new thing?

Well, yes and no.

Up until this point, those few Legio and Adeptus Custodes miniatures we’ve seen without helmets have been obviously male, and the rest have been so armoured that it’s hard to tell. The new range has a mix of both male and female Custodes.

Have you changed the lore? I thought all Space Marines and Custodes were male?

Space Marines, yes.

Lore wise, Space Marines are made from human males, willing aspirants or unwilling conscripts on the cusp of adolescence. They are subjected to a series of horrific trials, and the strongest emerge as remorseless killers, their humanity stripped away so they can serve as living weapons in the Emperor’s armies. There are no female Adeptus Astartes.

Custodes are not Space Marines. Other than the obvious point that they are both towering, gene-enhanced warriors, the similarities pretty much stop there.

Custodes are taken as infants and recrafted by ancient science.The process is arcane and bespoke to each individual. The Emperor himself retained oversight of the process (at least until that whole “Horus Heresy” thing went down).

But aren’t the Custodes made from the sons of Terran noble houses?

Some of them are, yes. The Emperor is all about symbolism and authority, so those pre-Unification patriarchal houses that passed their kingdoms down to first-born sons had those sons taken, and remade as guardians of the Emperor. That is still true.
But that was not the only source of recruitment. Other methods might have been equally overt, others far more secretive. Noble daughters could also have been taken, and at some point, you run out of noble houses – even after you’ve conquered all of Terra, the inexorable war machine of the Imperium still requires a constant churn of recruits.

How different are the male and female Custodes?

All Custodes, male or female, embody the pinnacle of the genetic and cellular engineering the Emperor employed when creating his armies. They are all flawless creations, pushed beyond the limit of human potential. There is no difference in combat efficacy between a male Custodian and female Custodian.

Can I be a Custodes when I grow up?

No, if you can read this you’re already too old. Sorry.

But on the other hand...

Honestly the one 40k kit I bought new (the Krieger killteam) had a genuinely ghastly sprue and build layout, you needed to be creative with snipping bits because several of the special weapons used the same single connecting arm at a weird angle that some of the other regular lasgun connecting arms didnt match out of the box, the reddit even outright had a guide on how to snip and cut a spare arm to let you build both a plasma and a radio, or a melta and a bolter. meanwhile I later built some perry models and I could stick almost everything willy nilly (although arm\shoulder armor usually matches) to each other

That seems like a better retcon to me. The Emperor took the children of nobility that could inherit titles, depending on how each noble house passed theirs down. Also the added mystery of recruitment by other means.
 
It's definitely not going to be Perty yet, that doesn't seem to jive with how they're doing these releases imo.
The Angron reveal wasn't long after WE being released, EC as well. They might stagger the announcement by 3 months or something at most.

I suspect smiling pipes teaser might actually be him, the video shows shoulder pad flairs similar to his HH model but that might be them reusing the style elsewhere.
 
Holy shit you are actually a baby modeler no wonder you have the dumb opinions you have, can you not just read the manual? If you weren’t clinically retarded you may also notice that the parts that are meant to go together are numbered sequentially on the sprue

Yeah man sucks about the sprues being so hard to figure out for retards that’s why all the boxes have detailed instructions and labels on the sprue to make it easier for people like you.

If you need a fucking manual for which of the 1 of 8 legs you need to glue to a model then you fucked up. And then have to search the sprue for that number because they are not in order on the sprue then you have fucked up designing a model kit. It's not even a controversy opinion to say GW kits aren't fun to build because of this. The build experience of GW kits is closer to a jigsaw than a normal model. They're cut to be specifically awkward so you can't easily sell parts of them as bits. You get heads, feet and ass cheeks on 1 piece and chest, legs and random robot bird on the other. And when they go together they leave huge gaps over major parts you then need to putty. Which is a problem distinct to GW and it's insistence on cutting up models to be as anti-consumer as possible.

Back in the day we used to bitch about how difficult it was to put the end of crossbows onto metal models. But never did any one decide to cut a model's head in half for the sake of it.

Which is it's self a retcon. Female space marines did originally exist. They sold packs of miniatures that included men and women. They noticed the women packs didn't sell as well as the men only ones did. This lead to them dropping women in the original space marine line and going with all men. There was never intended to be an all male bias there, it's just the market told them what it wanted and they followed.

Give it six months and they will dig up the old female space marine art and use it to justify their new femmarines the same way they did Squats and genestealer cult.

I have little to no understanding of 40k, but hearing someone say they have authority on something because they know a little about it sounds incredibly fucking gay and pompous.

The little I have come to understand is that supporting or even allowing girl-type shit in a hobby that panders predominantly to men, is the crack you allow to form now, allows all future bullshit, enshitification and misery to spill out from.

Understand this basic fact: men want to become the character while women want the character to become them, and they will destroy the entire community to get their way first chance they get; DEI Canon characters, canon troons, canon girlbosses who outshine every established powerhouse, and so forth.

It's why the 40k Total War is bound to crash and burn, and whatever you add, the ground you give, the changes you make, ...it'll never be enough to appease the deranged minority until your hobby is buck broken and a shadow of it's former self.

I'm building warp spiders and it's particularly unhinged. You'll have one leg on one sprue and the other leg on another and every bit is randomly placed like that.
And speaking as an Eldar fag we actually had a rock solid reveal for once.

Had a good laugh at the presenters dodging around the pronouns of the new seer like Neo in the Matrix. I don't think it's actually a they/them, I think they were just really confused by the briefing they got if it was anything like what ended up in the article.

Kharseth

The Eldritch Raiders’ sudden attacks from the darkness of space are so incredibly precise and timely thanks to the skill of the gifted Void Dreamer, Kharseth the Aethyrmancer.

1768604798690.png

‘What’s a Void Dreamer,’ you ask? They’re specially attuned psykers that can feel the shifting eddies of the Warp and guide their fleets through empyrean channels that would burn out dozens of lesser navigators. When they take to the battlefield, that control over the void manifests as freezing blasts that rip the life from unfortunate foes, exposing them to the lethal energies of the long dark.
It doesn't actually talk about her but about Void Dreamers hence the plural. Why make a named character without lore anyway? Who knows.
 
regardless of any retard screeching going on in here from pol-scrollers who aren’t actually in the 40k hobby I really wanna hammer in again that 40k is the single most dominant tabletop war game and every year it only gets bigger and more popular for years now pretend-hobbyists having schizo fits over “woke” shit in 40k have been swearing that the game will die any day now but it continues to blow every other game out of the water in terms of community growth and monetary gain. If you went into any hobby store and even tried to imply 40k was in any danger everyone would laugh you out of the place.

It is just the most successful tabletop war game there is so when you go online and start talking about how it’s dying from the woke agenda all of us who actually build paint and play just know you’re full of shit lol.

I have little to no understanding of 40k
Yeah that’s the problem with most people trying to comment on this

I don't want to go too off topic but everyone's seen what happened with Star wars, Doctor Who and DnD. Everyone knows this is simply how it starts until they go full hog on the lore.
Again I just started the miniature aspect of the hobby last year but anyone with a brain can see what's happening.

People have been saying this stuff since like 2016 and unlike Star Wars it still has only exploded with success. Also DnD is similarly the most successful tabletop RPG there is without question, I don’t like it because it’s basic as shit compared to other TTRPGs and it is pozzed to the point I can’t like it even but acting like it’s failing is delusional as well.

I try not to be rude in here as it has bitten me in the ass in the past, but fuck me, you're an embarrassing consumer worm I'm ashamed to share a hobby with.
