We all know how this book thing is going to backfire right? Little Timmy will get into it and ask their mum/dad/grandparent for more 40k books, said elder will go onto the internet and get a 40k book, little Timmy will be scarred in some way, parent's groups run a huge "think of the children" campaign. We all know the fun of asking a family member for a certain video game for your birthday for them to turn up with something the nice man in the shop assured them is just the same somehow, the same will happen here.

Also in before the cancer gets to the Horus Heresy seriese and the seige of Terra ends with a wheelchair bound troon Muslim with danger hair giving Horus a lecture about his toxic masculinity.

"If you’re curious about the characters and the settings of their adventures, pop over to the Warhammer Adventures website and poke around. They have sections for both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. Those sections have a bit of the backstory for each character and give you a feel for the setting. Based on the descriptions you get the idea that these stories are going to focus on fairly typical pre-teen story themes: friendship, bravery, honestly, problem/mystery solving. Think Scooby-Doo, but with Space Marines/Stormcast Eternals."

While this is fucking stupid and one of the most mockable things in the history of the internet, because the jokes literally write themselves, don't fret about this being a SocJus offensive. In a shocking departure from the norm, I can find no evidence that it's anything other than an easy cashgrab and it's at least better than anything C.S. Goto's written.

Tom Huddleston is a decent enough writer on his own, and, near as I can tell, is not one of the cult of diversity. Similarly, while Cavan Scott raises a few alarm bells, in that he's written all of the Star Wars Wild Adventures books, which are basically this exact concept, but for Star Wars, as well as being one of the writers for IDW's Star Wars Adventures comics series, which is aimed at "next generation of comic book fans," you will not find a trace of politics in his Twitter. The only time he's mentioned Trump at all has been to joke about his way of handling press conferences, and using it the way it always has been (as a term for farts).

"Today on Warhammer Adventures, our plucky adventurers learn about stranger danger when they meet Jerry, the head of a Slaaneshi Cult"

"Today on Warhammer Adventures, the crew learns hygiene skills when Little Billy becomes a poxwalker and eats Lisa's face."

"Today on Warhammer Adventures, the group learns about loss when Little Johnny gets taken by the Black Ships so his meager psychic might can power the Astronomican."

I could go all day with these...

"Today in Warhammer Adventures, Jeanette learns that the Archon's penis is this big, and if she fails to present him a hole for it, he shall make one himself."

"Today on Warhammer Adventures, Little Bobby learns what a Shotacon fetish is when the group pays an Adeptus Sororitas Convent a visit."
 
You have a game and its three expansions and somehow almost every single character has memes either about their voice acting or their dialogue. Dawn of War was truly a magical game.
 


There exist multiple Star Wars miniature games. The X-Wing game is really fun, even. I suggest this lactating hand-wringer should stick to universes his allies have already screwed up, like Star Wars, instead of trying to find new arenas to establish dominance over. But he won't, and likely doesn't care about Games Workshop beyond its ability to validate his precarious worldview through their corporate decisions.

Also notice how he bitches about how GW doesn't *force* the player to play as Fascists of Color, as if consumer agency is a bad thing. He also complains that brown Chapters aren't as popular as Ultramarines. Yeah, no shit, noob. Our Spiritual Leige gets all the love while my Marines Malevolent rust in obscurity. Welcome to 40K.

That Samael guy is retarded, I hate to break it to you but people don't give a shit about any of the stuff your talking about, the main barrier of entry for potential players is the price and then it sort of makes sense. The prices never bothered me much because its a niche hobby in spite of how popular the latest games are now, like Vermintide and TW:WH.

hurrr bring back the squats again and I'll play!! I'm so funny xD!!!


edit - so this samael creature is some kind of inflation artist.

Considering he was saying 'Sisters of Battle literally need like a bunch of Codexes,' I'm pretty sure he barely knows what Squats are.

I looked into this one. Good god, you found a great one.

Now, to begin, I don't think I need to tell you that this clown is apparently unaware that the Squats were brought back in Necromunda earlier this year, so he's especially ignorant, but Kiwis, this one gets so much better.

Looking deeper in past this tard (and his furry inflation art) , past his Weasyl page where the stupid moron has what can be called a needlessly complicated commission price sheet that is five fucking pages long, two pages of which are devoted to their fetishes, initial checks revealed that not only is this brain trust an Anti-Gamergate sperg with fucking hundreds of posts, they constantly blame "Gamers" on every fucking problem that exists, including racism, transphobia, et al. Throw in rat king connections and you have a fantastic potential lolcow on your hands.
 
OK, lemme just say I LOVE 40k. While I don't play the actual tabletop game myself (mainly because of the steep price range), I enjoy reading the lore, fanfics, and watching Let's Plays of the video games.

As for my fave factions, definitely Chaos. No particular Gods, just Chaos Undivided.
 
This whole thing is giving me flashbacks to this weird, obscure Dune children's novel I bought from my elementary school's book Fair many years ago. I wouldn't know a thing about Dune until years after, but thinking back on it I remember that what always stuck with me was the subtly they managed to slip in regarding Baron Harkonnen and his...tastes. Considering the protagonists were kids, you can see where this is going. They never needed to go into specific detail WHY, buT it was written well enough that they didn't have to flaT out say that he was a pedophilic rapist to know that they were absolutely terrified of him.

It's a loose example, and a gamble at that, but I have a feeling they COULD be subtle about the real state of affairs in the Imperium and give it relevance while preserving that sense of innocence unique to children. Enough so that maybe this same generation might get into the actual series and look back fondly at what the books were trying to get at.

Rate for optomism when?

That's what I call old fashioned Kiwi diligence!

If he's connected to the RK, it's just a matter of time before he goes a little too far in pursuit of attention.
 
I just had a mad idea based on a discord chat for those adventure books not sucking; have it be like the Magic School Bus, but do it in a black comedy. It'd be a Schola Progenaria program led by a psychotic lady Techpriest with her enhanced Stormbird takes the children of the subsector's well knowns on madcap adventures that result in bodies.

In one book, you learn about the Tyranid digestive process by shrinking and going into a Carnifex's maw. At least three of the children die by the end of it, with the Techpriest just cheerily going "let's get messy!".

Also the inflation fetish sex pervert also forgot you could paint minis and homebrew your own diverse cast. It's not that hard.
 
I had some Stormcast leftover from the Blightwar boxed set, and had planned on making a Stormcast army of my own, but the current crop of blue-haired Stormcast ruined the whole faction for me. So they're going up on ebay lickety split, to become either 4oK Orks or AOS Flesh Eater Courts.

That would be fucking hilarious.
