Women have found the Horus heresy books and they gravitate to exactly who you would expect. Though I was shocked by the imense disgust they have for Lucious
>>98334453>immense disgust they have for Luciousnot really surprising, Lucious is often times a massive whiney bitch whenever somebody is better than him, that type of shit is a repellant to just about anybody, especially women
>>98334453I am once again asking you to read real literature.
>>98334453How did this affect your latest HH game night?
>>98334453got any sources or is it just your imagination?
>>98334462I guess it hits too close to home?
>>98334509retard
>>98334453Women have known about HH. Konrad has one of the smaller fandoms among women, and unironically is liked way more by fags. I see way more excitement around the toxic yaoi of Horus and Sanguinius (with mpreg and egg-laying), and the toxic yuri of Fulgrim and Ferrus (severed head cunnilingus). Magnus also gets a pretty big following, with the expected "he did nothing wrong/he did everything wrong" memes. The least popular is probably Dorn by far.
>>98334490>male hobby catches attention of women>women enters hobby for attention>permavirgins cater to woman and shower her with compliments and praise for having a vagina>other women see woman getting attention and try to also gain attention>permavirgins cater further, hobby becomes casualized and shitty>manwhore sees women in hobby, enters hobby to pick up chicks>hobby becomes even further casualized and shitty because chad and growing number of woman can't understand it>women demand a bunch of gay shit because everything they interact with must revolve around themselves and they want the space marines to bake cookies and go shopping instead of fighting and being meanies>nerds get frustrated everything is shitty and gay and leave hobby>women leave due to lack of beta orbiters giving them attention>chad leaves due to lack of chicks>only remainders are a handful of competative players stuck with a watered down facade of what they once playedEither you gatekeep women or you lose the hobby.
>>98334570>>only remainders are a handful of competative players stuck with a watered down facade of what they once played40k is here and we didn't even get women, just trannies
>>98334570It's really interesting how this cycle has only existed in heads for over a decade at this point, yet there's no concrete example of this ever happening.
>>98334453>a undefined number of people who like one of the third row characters most (no source)>a undefined number of people also happen to dislike another third row character most (also no source)Okay. And?
>>98334595>yet there's no concrete example of this ever happening.the 19th amendment
>>98334595There is actually quite a bit of it. It isn't absolute, though. It's a corrupting influence, and this is accurate, albeit the players are wrong. It isn't so much women gravitating to something as it is a critical mass is reached where a hobby/setting has enough people actively engaging in it they attempt to branch to the mainstream. Often this comes in the form of some kind of dilution. Whether it's simpler rules, more "appealing" factions,.characters and story beats.It's fairly common in media, it's more about appealing to mass audiences than it is appealing to women. They know 99% of women don't give a shit about Warhammer and aren't going to be buying boxes regularly, if at all. They just think that the mean consumer they have already captured isn't going to walk away and will keep buying. There is definitely a process that occurs when something starts getting mainstreamed, and it isn't limited to tabletop

>>98334570How did any of this affect your last game night?
>>98334453I was in a bookstore with a girl I was dating and I told her the broad story of 40k and the HH as I was browsing some paperbacks. She said it sounds like a soap opera for men.
>>98334538>Konrad has one of the smaller fandoms among womenunderstandable, he's kind of a winey bitch>and unironically is liked way more by fags.never did it for me, but chubby femboy mortarion and perma-locked retarded twink angron are pretty sweet>I see way more excitement around the toxic yaoi of Horus and Sanguinius (with mpreg and egg-laying)based>and the toxic yuri of Fulgrim and Ferrus (severed head cunnilingus).... zased>Magnus also gets a pretty big followingmagnus is kinda boring, im not sure why people simp for him. tall non-threatening nerd?>The least popular is probably Dorn by far.weird, you wouldnt expect foids have such patrician taste
>>98334940Why is mpreg the most powerful fetish?
>>98334963because literally everyone has a breeding fetish, it comes free with your instincts
>>98334570>women enters hobby for attentionNo. I enter hobbies because I like the hobbies.Do you think I want your attention? No. I want to play warhammer. I'm not here to fuck, I'm here to roll dice and kill things.I'm also going to tell you something that's going to hurt. But it's also true. You, the warhammer player, are on average the fucking worst about generally sucking to be around. This isn't about physical appearance, even if like all nerdy men you all fucking smell awful. It's about how you behave. The fact that you think I'm here for your attention is genuinely god damn delusional. You are not the goal. You are an obstacle between me and my objective (to have a fun night playing warhammer)
>>98334863She's correct.
>>98334595
>>98334863well, right know is a power fantasy with platonic homosexual romances
>>98334509Pretty much yeah Divas at best have to frenemy each other but if its just an angry bald guy they can freehate on them. Lucius is a heel like from wrestling. A villain you love to hate who keeps coming back. Like Erebus.
>>98334863Did you use this as a great opportunity to explain the roots of opera and its focus on interpersonal drama linked back to greek classics then loop that back to the shared ties of that to warhammer?
>>98334453Women have known about HH for years, there's entire camps of them on Ao3 writing degenerate toxic yaoi fanfics
>>98334986>not here for simps>here to kick you out of your own hobbyOk that's so much worse.Also>I'm not here to fuck>implying getting attention from orbiters involves actually fucking themStarting to doubt your cred, literally everybody but the orbiters knows this.
>>98335270You've got quite the victim complex>not here for simpscorrect>here to kick you out of your own hobby.I'm not here to kick you out of your hobby. I'm here to engage in my hobby. It happens to be the same hobby. The only time I have gotten someone "kicked out of <our shared hobby>" was when some guy at a tournament refused to respect my personal space and kept putting his hands on me. I asked him to stop, he didn't. I told him to stop. He didn't.Hey you know what's fucking embarrassing? Having to pull a TO aside and say "can you please do something about this guy putting his hands on me?" You know what feels fucking awful? Having an asterisk on one of your wins for the day because you didn't win by actually beating someone, you won because they got disqualified for refusing to respect your personal space. Even though I'm sure some WACfag somewhere has something brewing in his brain now that I've mentioned this story.>implying getting attention from orbiters involves actually fucking themI don't want orbiters you fucking clown. I want people to be fucking normal about my presence here. I want the fact that the person across the table from you is a woman to not be some big fucking deal.
>>98334453Lucius is a bitchEven the Traitors hate Lucius
>>98335398how does someone touch your body when they are on the opposite side of a table from you?
>>98334453>Women have found the Horus heresy booksBro they found 5 years ago you're late.
>>98334453Welcome to ten years ago, faggotAlso gb2/hhg/
>>98334570HH was always for women, retard.
>>98334986YWNBAW>I don't do it for the simps, teehee~You wouldn't be proclaiming your possession of a (neo)vagina on 4chan as if it fucking mattered if that were the case
