When did Warhammer go from being a game about making themed armies in cool campaigns into being a sweatlord tournament game where people whine about balance and how your models must be Games Workshop approved with the right weapons and no kitbashing? What even happened to campaign play?
>>97195868It didn't really change. The metachasers are just a loud minority on the internet. The majority of the people do the hobby like they want, at home with friends. Nobody cares for the torunaments and the meta that much. The "pro"-gamers just want too believe they are the majority. Don't listen to them. Fuck them!
>>97212115Outside of Judge Dredd, I'm not sure any of 2000AD strips have anything Capeshit about them
>>97217099Understandable, have a good day.
>>97203960Ask me how I know you enjoy the stench of unwashed dicks, fauxgrog.The "oldhammer" you LARP as loving existed for about four months in 1987 and was never even the intent of the people creating and publishing the game, it is purely an artifact of them being an actual small business at the time and so having to serialise the publication of their game and setting. Rick Priestly has said in numerous interviews that barring a few irrelevant details the "tidied up" version of 40K that arrived with 2nd edition was always the version they had in mind and were working towards with RT, and again barring a few irrelevant trivialities 2nd and 3rd are completely consistent as regards the setting. Orks being treated more as "sometimes amusing but an actual threat" rather than "LOLELEPEEPEEPOOPOO LE RANDUMB" - which was always to some extent an exaggeration anyway - is about the only serious "change". The rules were changed, certainly, but they'd also changed with 2nd and you groglarpers always pretend that wasn't a big deal despite it being a huge shift from pseudo-RPG combat system to genuine wargame, with 3rd being a comparitively much smaller change from bloated character focused wargame to slightly streamlined unit focused wargame. Also first major pricehike? Lol. Lmao. Eat shit buddy, I remember actual shouting matches between customers and staff because of price rises in the mid 90's.I don't know whether you're a pretendy-grog trying to pretend your imagined "original & pure" 40K actually existed or simply a Latehammer faggot maneuvering to try and pretend all the rancid slop you enjoyed as GW steadily ruined their IPs in the mid 2010s onward, but either way it's not gonna work bubby, some of us were actually there.
>>97196529Among friends, you wouldn't be enough of a cunt to buy a mini knowing all your mates hated SCs then try to guilt them into letting you play it. Every club I joined and every gaming group I played with banned SCs outright all the way up until around the middle of 4th edition, and even then it took a couple of years and 5th's heavy pushing of them for army building unlocks before you weren't considered a massive twat if you tried to use them outside of prearranged narrative games where they would actually be present.
I haven't bought a model since like 2023 maybe early 2024. When I bought Dante he was like $35. What the fuck happened? This is legit robbery.

>>97218604they did one like 6 months ago.
>>97218471>Nurgle release already got sent to LGS>People have already received the stuff they have ordered, battletome and miniatures included>Still not even announced the preorderWhat the fuck is happening?
>>97217983There are a lot of shops like that where the prices have never been great and the owner just keeps ordering stuff. The lgs in my old town had racks of blisters like that, piles of 3 pack tacticals and csm, all sorts of ancient shit. Their prices were gw + like 8-10% so nothing ever sold unless people were trading in magic cards for credit. I used to go there for the used model shelf cause you could find ridiculous shit for great prices. Had a full redemptor kit for 30$ with the arm not attached yet and I convinced him it was broken and got it for 22$. Store eventually died because he went all in on funky pops, fnaf tshirts and comic books and removed the play areas
The nurgle battletome has leaked:>Apparently everything Nurgle from Darkwater is in there, except for Blight Templars and Mulgoth the Cleaver. >Mirekelpies are technically in there, but serve as tokens for Poxwretches.>No existing units have been cut/going to Legends which is nice.
>>97218775>except for Blight Templars and Mulgoth the Cleaveranon on suicide watch
Chaos is the least interesting part of 40k.>Comprised entirely of humans for no reason>Just copy-pastes of Imperial units but tackier>Chaos xenos absent for no reason>Khorne forces redundant with Orks>Slaanesh forces redundant with Dark Eldar>Constantly competing with Tyranids for spot of "Biggest Threat to the Galaxy"
>>97215660Laer don't have minis. Tzaangors are Beastmen and thus Humans. Chaos Eldar have no units.>>97211086It's just the truth. Chaos wasn't even a thing in Rogue Trader, while Tyranids were from the start.
>>97217876Eldar are barely in this IP and don't count.
>>97215597>Does 40k even have any concrete examples of Orks worshipping Chaos or a random Demon or something?There are two metal models of stormboyz of khorne and a model of an ork chaos champion, and there's art of nurgle orks.
>>97213795Why would they hate xenos while rejecting the imperial truth that hates xenos?
>>97218752They are still human supremacist, despite worshipping Chaos.The War of Beast even made the Iron Warriors team up with some Imperial Fists for a time

Why are the Blood Angels the only ones that are lore accurate?
>>97217594Whoa whoa whoa you can't just say that all black people look the same
>>97217396it's a miscalculation because they're including the faces as self-inserts for people who want to play the most stereotypical version of the chapter possiblefewer people would care if the game featured multiple space wolves and it featured non-Fenrisians recruited as primaris marinesI don't know if the question was ever addressed as to whether Fenris actually has enough climatic or genetic diversity to have races corresponding to the original races of Earth. Knowing modern culture diktats, the answer is obviously "YES, everywhere is as diverse as the modern UK", but being completely fair and asking the question of writers in the 90s looking at this from a sci-fi perspective, what would they have said?Bear in mind, there's tens of thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of years of isolation that went into making the IRL races different, whereas 40k only has planets populated ~20,000 years at most (pre-imperium). Some planets could have had time-warp shenanigans during the pre-imperial dark age, but even then, divergence would be less likely to happen internal to the planets, but rather the planet's population would become distinct from the baseline human norm, especially if the planet had the culture and technology to allow intercontinental travel, as most would have.We know more or less that Fenris:>has no climate equivalent to Africa; the warmest regions are probably comparable to Canada (no idea about sunlight/UV protection)>has a small, low-turnover population for an Imperial planet, but a high population for its tech level>inter-continental travel exists because sailing is a huge part of their culture, even before the imperium>the planet might have started as a viking-werewolf theme park with genetic engineering (its inhabitants might be skewed towards viking-like workers, but presumably people from all over the human colonies visited and settled/were trapped during the DAOT)
>>97217714>(if not hundreds of thousands)No, modern humans were bottlenecked far more recently than that.
Stop being racist.

>>97214258The main problem is that it has been completely taken over by various groups and governments who only want to promote nationalism or political theater. So the only things that can be published now are 90% propaganda for the country or reigning political party. There likely has not been a single paper that is kinda sorta objective since the 1970s at the latest.
>>97213257Nah, only you should.
>>97218740To this same argument, India (or the Archaeological Survey of India) is the reason why just about any element of discussion on the Indus Valley Civilization is repeatedly claimed to be the single most advanced amazing, fairy tale civilization as well as the oldest ever discovered in all human history. We are required to note how they were the first actual non-nomadic, indoor dwelling people to have existed on earth, while also stating that they were more advanced than even early 20th century modern nations. There was a concerted effort to ensure that any discovery made post 2001 leave mention that the cities Harappa and Mohenjo-daro were more sophisticated than any other pre-20th century city in the world, and without any factual evidence for the claim. It was a requirement by several individuals involved in the Archaeological Survey of India. which has only become significantly worse due to twenty years of hearsay and rumors.
Why was XP for gold largely abandoned as a way to reward players?
money feels hard to manage, xp is an abstraction that moves you to anothe abstract stuff so it feels manageable
>>97216796>On the other hand, grabbing a chest of gold is about as shallow of an action as I can think of, why would it by itself teach a character anything?One of the things often forgotten was that getting the chest of gold wasn't what granted the XP. Converting Gold to XP was implied to be about spending that gold on things like training, learning and eating well. Things that in theory would improve your combat abilities. Once a party got their treasure to the surface and then divided it among themselves they would have options on how to use it:>Buy gear>learn spells>craft magic items>Hire and/or train Henchmen and Hirelings>Save it in order to pay for the foundation of a stronghold at name level>Spend it to level
>>97161553>Why was it abandoned?>Because it went out of popularity.9/10 ragebait.You really nailed the mouthbreathing stupidity without being too obvious.
>>97217910If this is what was implied, why not just make it explicit? Because to me, it seems like if the problem is people simply took the gold and converted it to experience, and people didn't really think of or want to use the gold to train, then this is just how people want to play.
>>97218573Nta but everything was perfectly layed out in fine prints with ad&d 1e, i assume that in b/x it was at least explicitly stated that to you get xp from the gold safely transported back to your homebase, not from gold acquired period.

So the end point of the adventure she dies, lingers on for a second as a ghost but is then torn apart by innumerable demon & qlippoth hands. Why? Alaznist was a powerful wizard in life and capable of great evil. Why isn't she transformed into some sort of horrifyingly powerful demon lord as a result of her long life of evil and power?I also raise this question for Abrogail, surely she should be some sort of powerful devil as well. I mean she damned an entire nation to infernalism and created a foothold for Hell. Surely that should be rewarded with something.
>>97216648I guess in terms of aesthetics, the Samsarans would fit the most. Though in terms of tech and mysteriousness, Androids, Jotunborn, or Azarketi could all fit. The currently available Starfinder2e options wouldn't fit, but I think 1e might have something.And of course Minotaur and Sarangay, if you are all in on the cow propaganda.

>>97139763I too bought a few hudnred dollars worth of plastic I probably should not have bought.
>>97216044I'd rather play against the first one because I want a clean match and don't want someone to "go easy" on me.This may sound mean but I don't care about my opponents manufactured headcanon about his little plastic men. I can respect a good paint scheme, even recognize the passion it must take to make up backstories and names for them , but that's a personal connection that he shares with his dudes and it means little to me. It's like expecting someone to care about your D&D character; yeah they may mean a lot to you but I'm not in your head.
>>97216044as long as both play fair and do not try to cheat, I do not really mind, I just hope the second one does not start loredumping or making 40k puns all game, I enjoy the setting but not really that deeply interested in the lore

Moloch's Fun Park Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/Comment too long.
