Na. Lore-wise they're old as fuck and even IRL they're old, the White Dwarf issues cited in that page dating to 1995. Sandy Mitchell is a fan of writing it in, with the party's assassin in the Dark Heresy books having redemptionist beliefs and the Tallarn Commissar in that one Ciaphas Cain novel being a fan of it since he was a thick-headed weasel who liked hiding behind theology. Obviously only the worst hives like Necromunda and Fenksworld will have that sort of nihilistic zeal, but its an appealing belief system in 40k among the downtrodden for obvious reasons.
 
So far my painting is going well, I primed and based my outriders with the legs/side panels separate and now they won't push together flush. So, now I'll be using it as an excuse to learn how to work with green stuff.

I thought that they were recent in Necromunda's history, as befitting the paranoia in the Time of Ending. Though I wonder how their lore will reflect the Great Rift. My guess is that the leadership would want to close it by setting the whole rift on fire. Can it even be seen that down in the Hive or is excessive industry another means to block out the warp?
 
So did anyone pick up any of that AOS Slaanesh stuff? Some good bits for conversion/repurposing.

I will. The Slaangors and the gluttonous cannibal guy on the palanquin is exactly the Slaanesh content I've been wanting.

I plan on buying some archers, for conversion into Dark Disciples for my Slaaneshi Dark Apostle and the rest will become Daemonettes or cultists.
 
The DoK Battletome is an abomination. Somebody in GW has a huge boner for DoK. They've always been broken, but now even moreso. It's so bad it actually sets the game back. Meanwhile the Slaanesh Battletome punishes anyone who bought the Start Collecting Slaanesh box. AoS had been pretty sleek, but it looks like there's a scheme to punish anyone who bought an army that is compatible with AoS, 40k and HH.
