40k is going to get starwarsified and there is nothing you can do to stop it
>>98327329Going to?
>>98327341Please forgive OP he's a retarded faggot.
>>98327329>"Listen up, guardspeople! I am Commisar Laqueesha Tubman and I will be your HR officer. Now let's de-colonize dis muthafucka planet for the Deity Emperson! May xe smile upon us. What? Slaaneshi cultists? Daemonettes? Private that is a micro aggression. Those are lesbian nonbinary trans asexuals you see kissing in front of you. Now pop open your banana and rice starch and get eating before those evil green patriarchal british colonizers come back! HOORAH!!!"
>>98327349They're already doing this, there was a streetshitter IG commander in Space Marine 2 that looked like Aradesh from Fallout, a screaming desert scarecrow woman giving orders to men. If you want to see the future of media, picture a brown woman screaming into a Human face, forever.
>>98327329I couldn't stop the IPs I enjoyed from being ruined, so why would I care about IPs I don't enjoy being ruined?I say it sucks to suck, and it isn't made for you any more. You won't be missed.
>>98327329Doesnt mean I will buy GW stuff. As an advertiser for their products, you suck. Get another job.
>>98327367There was? I remember a russian lady doing that but then she kneels to you and calls you "My Lord" so overall it was pretty based.
>>98327329>starwarsified>after having been marvelizedSounds like a huge improvement, so I heavily doubt it.
>>98327349There are Black Library novels like this.
>>98327329Unfortunately there is something I can do and have done about it. Not give them a penny for over fifteen years now. I guess you'll just have to issue a new currency to fix the hyperinflation but with an expiration date so no one can save money anymore and then I'll have to spend the excess on stupid garbage I don't need like primaris marines or lose it anyways.
>>98327329>starwarsifiedEu or Disney canon?Either one would be an improvement.
>>98327344Uh no.
do you actually enjoy games or do you just enjoy using them as rallying points for your endless culture war.
>>98327908Yes
>>98327408soft jeet and bum fuck russia has a similar accent when speaking in english.but also, sarkaana is a jeet va doing a jeet voice. the only cadian who does, its fucking stupid. she does kneel, thats good at least.
>>98327329>and there is nothing you can do to stop itYes there is, i can just fucking ignore everything post 8th ed, just like i do with star wars i ignore everything to do with the disney Starwars and only accept legends canon, just like I can and will do with 40k. I wont buy modern books, i wont buy modern models, ill pirate all my PDFs and rules for my old models and games, and ill buy china cast.
>>98331601Based
>>98327329>starwarsifiedI don't think you know much about star wars. It's like you were reaching for a marvel comparison or something and realized this is space and picked a different IP disney owns.
>>98332995Modern star wars got marvelized, so the comparison still works
>>98327367>>98327349>>98327329But it'll be 2035 and the mainstream will have moved back towards the "blue haired black women in HR was a bad idea" with only gw sticking to something 15 years out of date.
>>98327329Armour of Contempt.
>>98327329
>>98327329>going to
>>98327329Post your models and your opinion might have some weight.
>>98327329My man, the train you're waiting on has already plowed straight over the cliff.I was there.I had a picnic laid out and everything.There was a hell of an explosion, little bits of melted Dark Eldar and Abaddon's arms flying everywhere.
>>98327349Lol>>98327367LmaoIt's a shame what happened to it, but it was inevitable. Funny that they fell for the exact trap their characters warned against in lore.
>>98327329This has already been the case since the 2000s, with the hyper focus on Space Marine (Jedi)shit. You're just seething it's going to be mad the tv show is going to bring in a non-Chud audience. Sorry you were dumb enough to believe a for profit publicly traded corporation was going to defend your poltard morals.
>>98334067>muh polNo, it's just gay and retarded. You don't need to be superaryan1488 to see that.
>>98327349>He’s out of line… but he’s right
>>98327908GW fundamentally changed several significant parts of the IP to align with progressive shitlib identity politics. They fired the opening shots so fuck you if you think customers don’t have a right to shoot back.
>>98334067>>98334137Superaryan1488 here, warhammer 40k is fucking gay heil Hitler.
>>98336108Mike Brooks?
>>98327349>Slaaneshi cultists? Daemonettes?>Those are lesbian nonbinary trans asexuals you see kissing in front of you.>asexuals you see kissing>asexuals... kissing......Wut?>>98331601>i can just fucking ignore everything post 8th ed...No Templates?
>>98336131>duh shitwibs shooted us fuwst!!uh huh, go back.
A complete bloated cash cow that gets plastered on everything until it basically loses all edge and uniqueness? Didn't that already happen?
>>98333008Modern Marvel got disneyized
>>98327329>starwarsifiedI wonder if you could make a titan fall on its face if you tied its legs with tow cables, and how much damage that would do.
>>98338574Modern Disney got ???
>>98327329It already is and yes it will get worse.That's okay, I'll live in my based head anon instead
>>98338822An Ork took one out by jumping his bike off a cliff and flying into the head.
From Brooks " Da Big Dakka"">A Venom was rising up from the arena’s rooftop, and in the passenger compartment Dhaemira could see the distinctive shock of night-black hair that marked Xurzuli Mindrex out from a distance. Her mane was nearly as long as she was tall, and only a high clasp atop her head kept it bound up and under some form of control. She was surrounded by five other warriors: five of her bloodbrides, the finest wyches under her command. Not all of them were female, of course, since ‘bloodbride’ was a title rather than a description; indeed, Xurzuli herself had only taken on a female form in the last few decades since ascending to the rank of succubus, in the same way as every Asuryani warrior who explored the warrior aspect of the Howling Banshees was female, and most incubi were male. Some roles within aeldari society overrode the tenuous grip of biology: it was one of the few constants across all the varied strands of the species’ existence. ‘Grand Succubus,’ Dhaemira greeted her as the Venom rose into hailing range. ‘I understand that my message did not arrive?My God, soon GW will troon out entire Eldars...
>>98336131Warhammer has always been poorly written slop compared to trve sci-fi books and comics.
>>98327341Kek first thing I thought
>>98327329the irony of using an image from Epic 40k for this is palpable.some art from nu-40k primaris vidya bullshit would make sense. not the one game series in the setting that is perfect and has remained apart and unfuckedover.
>>98339141Lmao. A dark eldar surgeon who can't turn a dude into a real woman will never make it out of the wracks.
>>98341187Seriously. Legitimately no one gives a fuck if the Dark Eldar are horrific deviants. I don't know why this low effort bait keeps being thrown out endlessly.
>>98341316>I don't know why this low effort bait keeps being thrown out endlessly.You people keep taking it, that's why.
>>98341187>>98341316For as long as I can remember, whenever something "woke" popped up, there were always people claiming it was just part of the lore—a trivial detail. And there was always some other jerk asking, "WHO CARES?" First of all—to address that last point—you clearly *do* care, seeing as you’re replying. Secondly, there’s a world of difference between a sex-swap meant to highlight the deviant nature of the Eldar and one intended to normalize that concept in real life just to score some DEI points. Also, the latter requires altering the very nature of the race in question and sanitizing it. And that is precisely why there will always be someone like me to point it out.
>>98341373Sorry but no one cares about space elves casually changing sex. If anything it's more normal than Howling Banshee crossdressing (when this tech level should be doing casual sex changes) which is ancient lore.
>>98339012Extra disneyedThey were always money and power hhungry and would milk everything they have
>>98341525Don't try gaslight me, fag. Besides, I no need others. I care. And some follow, and some are fags.
>>98331570Ah yes, good traditional Cadian name, Saarkana. Old Cadian officer stock.
>>98342561Saarkana von Pajeet from Poop Hive
>>98339193You say that, but have you ever read a battletech novel? Warhammer fiction is definitely middle of the road. It may not be very good, but the bottom is a long way down.
>>98341722Sorry son, you're alone on this one.
>>98342561Anon, the most famous cadian is Ursarkar Creed. Sarkar is an Indian word that means 'leader'. 'Ur' means original in German so, like all 40k things, they just randomly took elements from real life and merged them together to make a guy who's name means 'Original Leader'
>>98336108>every asuryani (eldar lol) warrior who explored the warrior aspect of the howling banshees was femaleWhoever wrote this wasn't very woke. Howling Banshees are gender inclusive.
>>98336131It is a shame that trench crusade floundered it’s full potential starting with its plastic Prussian prices. Then afterwards a lot of grimdark stuff was toned down outside of aesthetics.I think maybe PayPal or other money handling services might be a part for this as grimdark and genuinely edgy stuff is going out.So in many regards miniature agnostic wargames are kind of the last option now with homebrew being the lifting. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise.
>>98342561>>98331570Is that her actual name? Is there a “chud” who got in and is being “subtle?” >>98334012I think a post about these being bots at >>98339045 might be on to something.
>>98327329>for children>used mostly to sell toys and video gameswhen was it ever anything else?
>>98345272one of the writers was a tranny so i doubt it, there was a whole controversy about this then the game was fun so people didn't care (even if it actually does represent the star warsification of 40k by completely lacking in the edge and starring superhero marines instead of killing machine marines)but sarkaana is a obviously just based on sarkar as a name, literally just 'uhhh, cadian name, uh, sarkar, sarkaana?'

>>98345327I heard the writer for the warhammer 40k space marine 2 game got fired but I think that was cope.Never was any concrete confirmation.I bought anyway because nostalgia. I didn’t get into the multiplayer. I bet it is full of pros that just stomp each other nowadays. A bit like i was for some pvp games in my teens.
>>98341722>I no need others. I careESL chuds, in MY hobby? Lel, guess I'll keep not giving a shit about the space faries that can warp reality having chicks with dicks \_(ツ)_/ ̄
>>98327367>looked like Aradesh from FalloutAradesh was cool though. The women part I can understand
>>98345418It was definitely cope. It's the same feeling people had when GW released some supplementary material which called custodes a 'brotherhood' after the femstodes thing started, and they were like "WE DID IT! WE BULLIED GW OUT OF BEING WOKE!" and then memoryholed that as GW released a bunch of femstodes models. People have to believe their impotent rage means something - this is a thing for culture warriors on all sides of the aisle
>>98337450Being asexual doesn't prevent you from having sex, you just aren't sexual
>>98327329starwarsified well they've already retconned lasguns into blasters
>>98346569they didn't even have the courtesy of making them an interesting color
>>98345401Based.
>>98346569Lasgun shots in old art had yellow muzzle flashes. Dawn of War made them read for gameplay purposes I think.And people just rolled with it.
>>98349012why do you think "retconned lasguns into blasters" refers to the color? nobody gives a shit about the colorthey're laser guns that now shoot star wars bolts
>>98345160Incorrect, but it's okay, one day soon we'll be back to the days when faggots like you just get beaten to death in the streets and all will be right with the world.
>>98334067>with the hyper focus on Space MarineThat 'hyper focus' was always present, you were just too young to notice.
>>98350340Two more weeks.
What should I migrate to if I still want to build and paint scifi models but without paying GW? I already do gunpla
>>98334067>non chudWho isn't a chud , I think we are all being little chuds today.We NEEED to fix our chudines.
>>98341373I feel like that is because you are looking it at the wrong angle.I think you are lacking the nuance on something like this , I think you are overfocosing the hyper degends that condemed life with thier degendness are trannies. Or at least could be , that in of itself isn't really bad, one could argue that the problem is that. Though word use and tone , that is notting trannies as a neutral thing. Sometimes even defending it, it doesn't explore trannism as this fucked up hedonistic thing , because it doesn't see it that way.But you only point out the trannies , you need to analise more , otherwise people get confused.
>>98356631for shit that's basically 40k minis but different, wargames atlantic, mantic warpath, infinity, steamforged shit, spellcrow, warlord, trench crusade, etc... jsut ask in /awg/.lot of good options especially for skirmish games and necromunda style campaign shit.if you want to do spaceships and armies, dropfleet / dropzone. or go heavy gear or battletech or cav if you like mechs. ircc heavy gear has a ship game too. or firestorm / armored clash i think is coming back. or just buy ships you like and play full thrust. there's also like 10,000 15mm scifi games.
>>98327329Got a friend who borrowed my 3D printer to make his own non-faggot, easier to carry, closer-to-lore version of 40k.We don't need GW, and they can't touch us (as long as we don't try to profit from it). > Pic related, it's going to be mine.
>>98327349>>98327367"unlike you snowflakes I'm not so easily offended"
>>98349842Despite the fact that they are, in fact, lasers, the term "lasbolt" is older than Dawn of War's better lasguns.
>>98327367I distinctly remember her being a badass who knew how to do her job.I swear to god, there are so many things you could rightly get pissed at GW for, but instead you choose to mald about them adding more diverse characters?40K takes place 38 millennia in the future, after humanity has:1. Colonized the stars for tens of thousands of years and established civilizations on innumerable planets with environments that can be wildly different from Earth’s.2. Engaged in Emperor-only-knows how much genetic modification during that time, either to adapt themselves to the environment or just because they wanted to.3. Had vast swathes of our species exposed to varying levels of warp exposure, with Cadians’ violet eyes being one example of this causing benign physical changes.Even if you discount obvious mutants and abhumans, there should be trillions of people out there who don’t resemble any ethnic group on Earth today. GW is just acknowledging that in official media now by giving their characters a broader range of physical appearances. By rights they should be going even further, and we should be supporting it if only because of how entertaining it will be to watch normies and tourists react to how weird the setting can be.
>>98357465but it's only done because british people worship brownslop not because 40k is diversewhere's the asians at you disingenuous piece of shit?
>>98357503I agree. I'm sick to death of the gaslighting. We all know. No amount of >don't trust yourself, trust MEIs going to work anymore. The goodwill is spent.
>>98357503>complains about Indian woman>"where's the asians?"Retarded or bait? you decide
>>98357509"You will not be missed"
>>98357511indians are jeets not asians
>>98357512warhammer is made for retarded people
Thing about all this culture war shit is it's always about the next thing on the horizon not all the shit that's already happened, because you fags love outrage and you're normnigger pieces of shit that are never going to play anything besides GWslop trash
>>98357563So what do you play?
>>98357563I haven't played a gw game for 2 decades
>>98336108holy fucking cringe, Batman
>>98357542>india>famously middle asian country>"not asian"Retarded it is
>>98357717you're not asian rakesh you're a jeet
India is on its own tectonic plate, it's not Asian.
>>98357723Americunts really are this stupid aren't they? I assumed it was a myth but no, here it is. Like a monkey trying to speak English>>98357726Depending on what you define as a tectonic plate (sub-tectonic, major plate, minor plate, etc) So is Europe and China, dumbass. it's also not the only descriptor for a continent or even a regional term. It's sophistry
>>98357742Things that Asians know that Indians don't:It's bad to shit in publicAfter shitting you must wash your handsBathing isn't optional, you should take a shower every dayScented sprays like perfume or cologne are NOT a substitute for bathing
>>98357742
>>98345272I think you dont own any models and are just a secondary who doesnt play games.
>>98357512That's alright. I've been taking some enjoyment from watching the copers. Warhammer is trading its grogs for fad chasers and it's interesting to watch the dynamic in a formerly niche setting.
