Thoughts on abhumans?
>>
>>96538380
FUN!
>>
>>96538380
They're fun. Its a shame that GW does abhuman lore by naming a few specific subspecies rather than broad classifications, I'd prefer more generic alternatives than specifically using longshanks, ratlings, ogryns, felinids, ect, who all seem to be from specific places. It makes it feel more like an attempt to inject fantasy races (which it is) rather than something more sci-fi, and it'd make it easier to justify including abhumans.

At present, I'd need a pretty good reason to include a longshank or something similar in my games. Conceptually, abhumans are cool, and when writing an area in 40k I like using minor abnormalities as flavor. Its a good way to add character.

Poor Longshanks getting absolutely mowed down by Black Templars.
>>
>>96538662
>>
>>96538440
I feel similarly, but I wound up just transplanting longshanks into my own scifi setting since they have so little in mainline 40k
>>
>>96538726
Same desu. Though I had more inspiration from the Alliance/Union books and their portrayal of a spaceborne culture than 40k. I like the idea of a grav-adapted race.
>>
>>96538380
I think you should stick with subhumans in your general
>>
>>96538380
I don't give a single fuck about Warhammer or anything to do with it. So I have none.
>>
>>96538772
Maybe you should log off the warhammer board then
>>
>>96538380
Think they should be nicer to the cow ones.
>>
>>96538380
I prefer the no-ab humans
Yep, the chest region is just directly attached to the legs. No abdominals needed.
>>
>>96538707
You think that will stop me? You underestimate my zeal.
>>
>>96538380
variety adds spice to life, and I like the idea of ogyns being comic relief due to being lovable dummies.
>>
I, for once, am glad nu-40k is bringing more spotlight to abhuman

It clearly isn't the Warhammer board considering Warhammer shit also gets spammed on every other board. Jannies won't contain the spam because it drives up engagement.
>>
>>96540978
I will bring in the next generation of cow humans FOR THE EMPEROR!
>>
>>96538380
I don't like gw trying to force beastmen into being a chaos thing. They are cooler in-universe as a barely tolerated race forced to serve and suffer for an empire that does not like them. In chaos armies they just become mutants by any other name.

Are there any STL or 3rd party of a tall Navy person? I wondered about converting one from Navy Breachers or Solar Auxilia, but feels like too much work.

I kinda like the notion that they're a primordial form of Chaos as bizarre and alien to the common Chaos adherent as regular Chaos is to a normal person. But you're correct in that they're incredibly lackluster.

>>96538380

I genuinely do not understand how anyone can consider this an appealing art style. Every character this guy draws looks like a washed out crack whore.

You just don't get it man

>>96555369
Obviously not.

Revealed? Everyone here already knew this, redditor.

meet more crackwhores. theyre fun to talk to

>>96538380
Ratlings have pretty soulful character designs in the Kill Team box. Glad GW added them and allowed you to bring some big retards along for the fun. Hobbits are pretty comfy characters
>>
>>96540978
Old WF lore had mercenary beastmen working for the Empire

I mean that is how abhumans are distinguished from mutants, abhumans are essentially stable human subspecies
>>
>>96556599
Does anyone know what types of abhumans appear in the image?
>>
>>96556725
Left to right:
Astropath, Beastwoman, Ratling, Ogryn, Felinid, Longshank, Nightsider, Navigator.
>>
Does anyone know what the current status of all known abhuman races is?
>>
>>96556786
What do you mean status? They all still exist but none except Ogryns are relevant. Beastmen straddle the edge of being declared abominable mutants depending on where in the Imperium they are. Any abhuman faces the risk of being beaten and burned alive in a pogrom if they happen to visit the wrong planet or station.

ratlings and squats are relevant because they have tabletop models. beastmoids too but only in chaos armies. we simply need longshank waifus added to the imperial agents or imperial guards.
>>
>>96556990
The squats are the only ones who will not be burned publicly because if they were, the image says it all.
>>
>>96556649
I like this picture, even if it is creepy.

You should assume this just by looking at his twitter feed, but he is also a great artist aside of that, and eternally /tg/-related.
>>
>>96556761
>Astropath
Are they abhumans? I thought that they are just psykers and that the implication of the image is that blacks are abhumans
>>
>>96557317
>and that the implication of the image is that blacks are abhumans
That's probably a deliberate joke, but she's there representing psykers, who are abhumans.
>>

it's a negro actually
