Warhammer 40k

This is very true, I do a lot of printing and don't regret getting into it but it always bugs me when the cultists act like it's something you can just drag and drop and everything works out just fine. That kind of misleading just wastes a ton of time and money for people and might expose them to carcinogenic fumes (have people figured out if resin is more likely to cause cancer than frozen foods yet?).

Well, there's multiple issues with resin. Part of it is the VOCs, the other part is just simply being small particles of bullshit floating around and both are generally bad for you in any real quantity. You don't need to treat it like it's the ooze from TMNT in a tyvek suit, but even short term the fumes will fuck with your lungs and sinuses, and that's why I got rid of mine.

At the same time FDM also has it's problems with some filaments, mostly ABS and ASA which can cause styrene sensitivity.. and making yourself allergic to ABS and polystyrene plastic isn't a very good thing. Printing in ABS, even without some weird cancer shit or allergy, I know I can get a "smoked 3 packs of cigarettes in one day" feeling after a few minutes. ASA isn't as much of a problem with a fan on and some basic ventilation. Just the same as I use my respirator with my spray booth when spraying enamels, laquers, and solvent based acrylics, I find that the fans in the booth do a decent enough just of venting the dust from water based acrylics just fine. You don't need to treat everything like the state of California claims it'll all cause cancer if you just use some sense.
 
Having seen this week's pre orders it feels bad to see Custodes players getting better looking Sanguinary Gaud than Blood Agels players.

Oh no, the box didn't instantly sell out even though half of the warhammer grifters whine when the boxes do sell out. Why didn't it sell out?

Is it because the custodes models themselves are just replacements for existing models?
Is it because the dreadnought and tank were already bought via FW or recasts by everyone for years?
Is it because it's not a meta army for 40k and with nothing new in the box won't change anything about how custodes play at all?

No, it's got to be due to femstodes. Nevermind the fact that this guy was wrong 2 months ago with his bullshit about "GW stock plummets on response to femstodes". Or how about this one? I thought according to him they retconned them out a year ago?

He doesn't know wtf he's talking about with regard to 40k, GW, the stock market, etc. He's a fucking grifter. He's not even a gaming commentator/pundit. He's just Doomcock 2.0 with less focus on making 2 videos a week for the past half decade about how Kathleen Kennedy is getting fired from Lucasfilm any day now. He's not even consistent with his grift, and he's never posted a single video about anything GW related unless he can use it for his grift. These people are not worth watching or listening to for anything, because they don't care about anything other than hoping to run their mouths getting idiots into a frenzy over some shit.

so your telling me that Warhammer fans are like soccer goys from UK who will eat up everything to support the teams that shit on them? I am not getting the idea, like why would anyone buy a glaring spit on the face retcon models?

Because the newer customers won't give a shit, and the older customers who continue to play will just use the models they already have and ignore these since they aren't necessary for anything. Other than the nose gun on the tank having an option that the old forgeworld model didn't, the entire box of new custodes is just 1:1 replacements for existing models. No new characters, no new vehicles, nothing. And the lore retcon already happened 2 years ago in the codex.

So the whole box being a failure was not only femstodes but a lazy cash grab, But still even if they lie and somehow the grifter lies turn to truth will it make GW step away from femstodes effectively memory holing it? I mean they already bit the bullet and doubled down but this "rage" could help in GW not crossing the line?

Why would the grifter have any impact on GW now, when they've never had any impact on GW previously?

The grifters didn't do anything to stop GW with the femstodes retcon 2 years ago.
The grifters didn't do anything to stop the primaris retcon
The grifters didn't do anything to stop models from going to legends(FW and HH models)

But somehow this retard who doesn't understand GW's financials, the stock market, or anything else is going to tip people over the edge about femstodes? That new box and the combat patrol can be built as 1,645 points for 40k, continuing to make it the cheapest army in the game for any new player to start(this has been the case for years) and includes previously FW models that were a couple hundred dollars a piece. New customers not invested into 40k lore aren't going to give a shit. That video about femstodes from 3 days ago did manage to get 100k views. How many of those viewers do you really believe were potential GW customers that are now turned off purely by that slop grifting video? Hell, how many of those 100k views do you think even came from GW customers who play 40k to begin with? 10%? so 10,000? GW already has 248,000(up from 207k the previous year) paid subscribers for their app which isn't even necessary to play the game.

Lets even shift this away from 40k for a moment. These same grifters whine about Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, etc. as well. Mike from RLM got a rumor from a supposed insider that Star Trek Academy managed 400,000 views for the season. Not per episode, but the season. We also know that it dropped out of paramount+'s own top 10 list on their streaming site, and that the youtube premier stream got beat by a guy with 3,000 views with a static image of a cardboard cutout of Spock if I remember right. Do you really believe that it's the grifters causing people to not watch this crap, or maybe it's just people identifying it as the obvious shit that it is on their own? I don't watch the grifters, I know a bunch of fans of the IPs that I mentioned, and I've never heard one of them mention the grifters either, but they all refuse to watch the shit the grifters are complaining about. They see that the trailers, posters, etc. look fucking retarded.

Youtube grifters do not have the power you think they do, or that they pretend they do.

what you speak is the hard brutal truth, and I assumed the power because I saw the pop ups of "writing consultancy firms" like sweet baby deliberately infecting the companies that hold beloved IPs, and all of them started as grifters complaining about Mario being sexist so just apologies on my part.

But I still hope for some silver lining where GW at least don't go more hardcore with the far left idea and in the end giving us the inevitable "there was always there" female space marines retcon....just wondering and hoping for good times.

Sure and that's fine. Just remember that these shitty grifters get their money entirely off of outrage bait, and trying to chase trends. Hence why I mentioned Doomcock claiming for 5 years that Kathleen Kennedy was going to be fired any day now from Lucasfilm.

The trouble is that they aren't always right, and usually they don't even try to be correct, do any research(like every time one of them mentions GW stocks in any regard), or just discussing the IP in general. Because of that(and this guy's channel, the one who made this clip video is also a faggot who cries about walkable cities and shit), we get to see retarded shit like this when grifters pretend to care about shit they actually know nothing about.

And you're right. The SBI, Anita Sarkeesian, etc. type of people were also shitty grifters, but their goals were to embed themselves in industries. The right wing youtube grifters don't have goals or a long game, they just want the cash for the day so they pump out 2-5 videos a week(or even day sometimes). The lefty grifters were far more insidious with their plans and goals. But grifters of all types fucking suck.

I just want to give a genuine thank you friend, I am happy that you took your time and gave me precise crystal clear truth, and I will cheer a cup of TOTAL GRIFTER DEATH with you

Is 3D printing worth the hassle, or should I pick up some of the spearhead kits?

Most has already been said. It depends really on your available space and how intense your interest in the hobby is.

As for FDM: if you play a lot of Tabletop games with Terrain and like to switch things up often, then it is really worth it. Although not being just plug and play, it is already fairly easy to begin with. The A1 Mini is an amazing beginner printer. For a bigger one the P1S is under 400 bucks and also really good. Normal PLA or PLA+ fialemnt is quite cheap to get.

Besides that, you can print with multiple different materials and use it for practical stuff as well.

As for Resin: similar, if you paint and collect many minis, for instance vast Wargames like Rank and File or similar, you should really consider it. But the side costs pile up in the beginning (safety equipment) and it is alot more to consider. Like being sad, you should either have a separate space for it or properly vent the workstation (which adds to the costs).

Also dealing with a dangerous liquid is completely different from FDM filaments. If you don't want to be precarious with your workspace, I really advice against it. Liquid Resin itself is the bigger danger than VOCs there.

What also should be mentioned: before everything look up what Minis are actually available on the market...and if you want to get things legally or pirate them. Some STLs aren't that cheap and also costs to consider.

If you want Scans from official Minis, then you should really learn the Slicer software with Settings, Supports and so on, because you often need to do alot if work yourself.
 
All this printer talk reminded me I have like 3 or 4 resin printers a coworker gave me for free. Was too lazy to learn how to use em/fuck with the fumes
 
Haven't seen this discussed but looks like theyre bringing back bosses for kill team. Old edition had elites expansion. Kind of disappointed at the squad being generic Cadian tough guys. Their first edition Kill Team had something similar in expansions. I mean great for me to play single player (shut up) but wish they went with something more like Tanith guys because it'd be perfect for it with camo cloaks and treadfetters.

It was mentioned earlier in the thread but it's definitely a welcome addition. The Night Bringer and Red Terror are actually pretty good starts, they could do it with some existing kits like the greater daemons or named characters and faction unique scenarios.
Kill team players are in a really good spot right now and I hope it continues for them.

Honestly you don't even really need grifters to call out retarded practices. eventually GW is going to GW with a release and include either subpar units or make glaring mistakes (apparently the extremely expensive WH Quest reboot is awful, its 255 bucks for 49 miniatures!) so bad that core fans who are ambivalent about the woke shit will call shit out. I have a feeling they got culture war tourists because of their nature of being uninterested in any actual change or outrage that is not culture war related In addition to possible higher ups being true believers in this shit. i still stand by this when the femstodes shit first dropped

People have been doing this for YEARS and its honestly a genius move in hindsight for GW the more i think about it
butter up people who are ideologically blind to anything besides their pet causes and then when you want to pull off more and more stupid shit with your product you will have people who can happily call any detractors meanie words online if they vaugely shat on the pet cause once

GW has been incompetent, greedy, lawsuit happy and generally done a poor job at balancing their products for decades and yet they have a gaggle of he/hims and she/hers being smug about consooming their plastic in spite of said previous incompetency because they wrote a couple lines of text
Click to expand...
GW is still a supremely greedy and retarded company with the woke pandering or not, and i doubt anything woke will drive out people faster than them being incompetent. Which is the most likely end for them unless the multimedia money combined with the woke grift buys is enough to keep their retarded market afloat

It's important to remember that when primaris was new, they had some awful new lore about primaris blood angels no longer suffering from the black rage or red thirst. The "grifters" sperged about their army becoming red Ultramarines so hard that this retcon was reversed.

Grifters like TheQuartering, this Doctor Disaster, Hypnotic, Discourse Miniatures, Smashjt, Arch, the faggot with the space marine hitler thumbnail above, and so on didn't have anything to fucking do with anything GW changed.
