Its finally happening. First official Space King boardgame is going to get crowdfunded>GW execs on suicide watch
Mandatory Fan favorite
>>98477800I'm optimistic. Always really enjoyed flashgitz. Space king makes me chuckle like a retard.
>>98477800I can't stop laughing at how good the art is.
>>98477851Tell them about the 'per capita'
>mfw
>>98477914Why can I hear the sound of Hava Nagila playing from the direction of Nottingham, UK? I'm in the dead center of burgertopia.
>>98478214Only one of these is actually grimdark
Just sold my GW stock! It's so on Space Kingsisters!
>>98478214>GW invented dudes shooting at other dudes in hero poses
>>98477800>>98477825this looks dog shit
>>98478293>>98478249To be clear, I'm not defending GW, I'm just pointing out that those hyper-litigious cocksuckers were probably champing at the bit for an excuse.
>>98478355not much of a case but if they really want dickhead power armor art so much.
>>98477800>franchise which is a lowbrow of a franchise which started out as a satire of multiple other original franchises>also each link of this chain is more low-brow and exagerrated than the older oneWhat the fuck is happening to culture
>>98478380
>>98478380Everything has been a lowbrow derivative of everything ever depicted since Grug drew a stick figure on a cave wall.
>>98478293retard
>>98478380>>98478390>T. Election touristGood for them, I won't be buying this gay shit but I like seeing how they've refined their craft from newgrounds nostalgiaslop to something they can really call their own. Thats the dream.
>>98477800Here in /tg/ /TransGirlz/ we hate chudgits.Get. Out. Nazi. Chuds.
>>98478214Is this the same artist?
>>98478380It’s a parody dipshit, not a satire.>A parody is when you take something and make it silly, or sillier if it was already silly>A satire is when you take something and show how silly it is
>>98478808nta, he was saying that spaceking is a lowbrow of 40k, which started as a satire. This statement is true, you might've misread it.
>>98478757>naziIf they keep calling normal people nazi it will only make total chud victory more inevitable
>>98477800>>98478214Why are you talking about an affectionate parody of 40k as if it's a competitor made by people who hate it
>>98478214>the 40k parody isn't allowed to reference 40k
>>98477800>People tangential to tabletop gaming make a big war game/board game on a crowdfunding platform.So they are going to over-promise in their stretch goals and bankrupt themselves in fulfillment? If they even get that far? Kick-starting a boardgame is just about the stupidest fucking thing someone can do, let alone a couple of dudes making a YouTube cartoon. RIP flashgitz, I guess.
>>98478970>People who hate itNah brotherIts a love letter to 40k made by people who hate GW
>>98478994>Simple models>Simple cardboard markers for corpses and markers>Simple boards>Simple diceIf this game is made without excessive add-on bullshit and just put out a base game with a simple pin for backers? It could be pretty easy to produce.
>>98479171Far more experienced game designers have fucked themselves over putting out shit at this level of production. These guys have zero projects under their belt, they have zero experience in this field. This is a death sentence. I don't understand the brain worms someone needs to have to be getting success in one field and think "oh, I guess I should go over into this other, tangentially related thing, I'll totally be good at that too."
>>98477800I might throw some money at it just as a donation. MIGHT.Let's just hope the thing isn't priced similarly to a GW product as it will be Trench Crusade plastics all over again with "small indie company" being a bad hybrid excuse/cope.
>>98478853It started as a Dune/Starship Trooper parody of Warhammer Fantasy. It only ever had inklings of a satire with its anti-Thatcherism but it was always a parody first and foremost. “It’s a satire” comes from people that don’t understand what satire is or don’t understand the history of 40k.
>>98477800>WHERE IS EPISODE 5 YOU FAGS
>>98479443End of the month
>>98479402>“It’s a satire” comes from people that don’t understand what satire is or don’t understand the history of 40k.Oh the irony
>>98479446They said that 6 months ago. Couldn't even get their apology short out in a week like they said in their last video. >launches off brand kickstarter instead I like your animations but stuff like this while posting a lot of videos about how you're not corporate gets old fast.
>>98479380Nigger most 'game desingers' are just a couple complete retards scribbling down nonsense. Anyone can make a game, I've made several. You cunts are so unfathomably fucking retarded though that the merits of it aren't what determines its success, but perception of it, which is primarily determined by how much you can pump into its advertising. There are probably over a hundred games superior to 5e in every way but you subhumans play 5e because thats just what you do. We'd be living on mars by now if we adopted eugenics and your entire bloodline never existed in the first place.
>>98479380>>98478994They're not designing the game themselves they clearly have game designers working with them>zero experiencecorpo brain>>98479523>>98479443They already confirmed august 29th as release date for ep5
>>98478214>>98478421How the fuck did this get past legal?>>98478380During their video they explained that one of the creators was a hardcore Munchkin fan growing up and it explains a lot about the art and general feel. They discussed some of the card design elements and I wouldn't be surprised if it was closer to a munchkin style physical dungeon crawl. There's only so many ways you can convey the GRIMDARK HORRORS OF WAR.
>>98479454I’ve yet to see people use “satire” correctly or even point out the supposed anti-Thatcherist satire. You also cannot directly satirize another fictional work without risking a lawsuit from the copyright holder.>>98478214The funny thing is GW might have no way to sue them because Space King maybe transformative enough to constitute fair use.
>>98477800>>GW execs on suicide watchThe game might end up being fun and all and I'll probably buy it to support Tom and Don but I seriously doubt it will have any impact on GWs bottom line in any way. It's certainly not going to steal anyone from actual 40k, it's not even a real tabletop wargame it's just a silly board game you might play a few times and then it'll sit on a shelf forever as a fun memory.
>>98478970They don't hate 40k, they hate nu40k which is faggot fanfiction wearing the old 40k as a skinsuit.
>>98480062You aren't using it correctly either.
>>98479880>>98479899Idiots. I am not talking about the quality of the game. I'm talking about the ability to fulfill a fucking Kickstarter. We've seen time and time and time and time again that board game kickstarters a massive fucking money pit, and unless these guys are partnering with a group that has fulfilled before, they are almost inevitably going to fuck themselves. "We're gonna kickstart a boardgame" is almost up there with "we're gonna kickstart an MMO" in the list of stupid shit to do.We've been watching CMON unravel in real time, despite the fact that they had several incredibly successful boardgame kickstarters based on popular IP. Its the same story every time; in between the end of the Kickstarter and actually making the fucking thing, the price of literally every component increases, the cost of international shipping is a fickle, unpredictable beast, and, in order to make the thing they want to make, they're going to have to deal with shady Chinese manufacturers, who eat first time producers like this for fucking fun.You can Google a fucking killers row of failed boardgame kickstarters with zero effort. But, no, you're right, the fucking YouTube fake 40k cartoon guys who've never done this before are *totally* gonna crack that nut first time out.
>>98480144Are you retarded?
>>98478970Their channel name is called FlashGitz and they make the best black templar anti furry cartoons. They don't hate 40k they hate the cockroaches that are GW's lawyers.
>>98477800Oh, so THAT'S why all the cool STL models of Psycho-Warriors got nuked off the internet. Kinda ruins the whole dunking on GW shtick if you speedrun turning into greedy bullying corpocunts yourselves.
>>98477800As much as I understand why they put the main cast in it. I would have loved if the game had four new psycho warriors to play as instead.
>>98480230>the fucking YouTube fake 40k cartoon guys who've never done this before are *totally* gonna crack that nut first time out.HSR guys did it.
>>98477851Tell him about per capita!
>>98478249And that's the bottom one. The top one is grimclusive.
>>98480230The game's already made. The kickstarter is just a pre order so they don't have to take a risk with the amount of products they're going to manufacture.
>>98481061>The game's already madeAnon, do they have distribution lined up?An order at the factory that is not going to be waylaid by chinese new year?Their shipping permits and fees all in ordee so backers shipping charges will not be insufficient later?These are the sorts of things that ither anon is thinking about.The design and a prototype model do not a published game make.
>>98481069The answer to that is obviously yes since they're at the head of studio and have been working on this game for more than a year.Not that any of that is a big deal anyway.
>>98481069Most of that shit is mitigated by simply not making the game in China and charging an extra $10 for it.
I rewatch the furry crusades every year or so. They're a callback to a better era of the internet in my opinion.
>>98477851He's not gay! He just hates Aliens.
>>98481185AVENGE ME BROTHER!
>>98481069Fulfilling a thing is not as hard as you're making it out to be, most people just don't care to learn. I'm sure they'll be fine
>>98480243I mean this as sincerely as possible: Please go research the actual difference between satire and parody. This is a thing that has been written about and discussed at length for a very long time.
FUCK all of you faithful bastards who suck Nottingham cock.I am goign to do it.I AM!!!!i'm gonna make a whole new space marine armyOUT OF PSYCHO-WARRIORS!!!PRAISE BE TO SPAAAAAACCCEEEEEE KIIIINNNGGG!!!!!!!!!
>>98478319perfect for the retards who watch pootube slop
>>98477836I'd love to see some painted Psycho Warriors. This actually look really good and I hope there will be expansions with generic Psycho Warriors cause right now it seems like the game will actually be about the main four characters.
>>98477836Uh-oh spaghettios, looks like Bryce was slacking off when removing pre-supports. What do we think about this level of unprofessionalism Hatemonger?Hatemonger: "We have all been there before, when you model and paint and an invisible defect makes itself known only after the pictography was posted on the sanctum vox populius. We should have mercy to those who struggle along Space Kings hate march so that no more mercy remains for the aliens...and women." I see, you're right Hatemonger. >Praise be to SPACE KING!Jokes aside i hope it goes well for them. But personally i am too no games to buy a board game.
Oh yeah we're going to btfo Warhammer 40k with models and a setting that's just like theirs and has no real identity of its own Fuck these hypocrites, they make whole videos shitting on other wargames and then come out with this slop.
>>98480230This game isn't nearly as big as cmon expansion fests.
Damn, new edition of horus heresy already?
>>98477800ITEHATTSD only wishes it could be as good as space king. i am very glad that show ended.
>>98481355So you are retarded. The difference between the two, legally speaking, is that parodies are transformative in nature while satires are not. Transformative, in a legal context regarding IP laws, refers to changing the context, function, or purpose of something for it to count for fair use. Satires as far as can tell, never actually change the context, function, and purpose of whatever they satirize as that would defeat the purpose of satire and render it under another type of humor (like nonsensical humor) rather than being satirical. Furthermore, there is a difference between using satirical humor and actually being a satire. Casual research will reveal most of what I said as true but I do have a book detailing IP laws that I can refer you to help you regarding fair use, transformative, and how that plays into IP laws, including examples.
>>98481812It's all for a laugh, chill out and have fun instead of being upset.
>>98481965actually it's for them to make money off of people like you and other hampigs
>>98480090I would assume 99% of people who buy the game are Warhammer players who will keep playing Warhammer too
>>98481949I am once again asking that you actually research what these things are. Your IP blather is not only wrong, but inconsequential.
>>98482012
>>98482494yea you fags spam that shit everywhere like on twitter because you're retardsnice job
>>98480230>unless these guys are partnering with a group that has fulfilled beforeThey are, they explain this in the video they released yesterday
>>98482012So you're saying you're justified in being upset?
>>98482508who's upset about stupid being buying garbage?
>>98477800Nah, fuck this cashgrab.
>>98482499>twitterXFtfy
>>98482499
>>98477800>Reddit Kingtrash.exe
>>98482907It's too parodically hypermasculine for reddit.It's Chud-coded.>But Anon, it's MAKING FUN of ChudsYeah, Chuds make fun of chuds all the time.The self-referential humour about being a Chud, and having Chud thoughts, in your Chud world.>>98477800Depending on how much they gouge, I might put in for it, but I have my eye on other things.
>>98482940who the fuck cares about chuds this is a game board.
>>98482940>yeah, Chuds make fun of chuds all the time.>the self-referential humour about being a Chud, and having Chud thoughts, in your Chud worldNot even that.Half of the jokes in the seires that these types point to as a prove that flashgits are "making fun of you chuds" are either exaggerated references to the lore (with psycho warriors being manchildren because space marines are child soldiers, not because how the see muh toxic warhammer fans) or straight up their unironic opinions exaggerated into a joke ("no girls allowed" vs their sincere opinions on female space marines)
>>98482135> Your IP blather is not only wrong, but inconsequential.>it’s not me who’s wrong, it’s the law books that are wrongHow about you tell us your oh so enlightened opinion? Regardless, the legal system goes out of their way to recognize the difference “parody” and “satire” because IP laws are serious business, and it gives a clear definition no one can squirm around. I’ve even seen Naked Gun used as an example of parody and fair use.
>>98482506Who are they working with?
>>98482965It's the TRADITIONAL games board.Chuds are inherently reactionary.Playing TRADITIONAL GAMES in this day and age is inherently reactionary, specifically against the way videogames in particular and modern media in general have poisoned our collective ability to create and dream.Chuds have dreams too y'know.
>>98483091That's the point.As a Chud I can laugh at the runaway consequences of my own purported ideology running rampant.It's funny, it hits you right in the funnybone.It reminds you to be a better Chud, and not a cartoon of one.
As a verified grog, whilst I don't really find Space King all that funny (bit too american rick and morty for me) I do find the success of it charming.I'm sure Rick Priestley would find it funny.
>>98477800At last, a tabletop game for people whose only understanding of 40k is by speedreading the Lexicanum and watching Youtube Shorts.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9h6awonuFg&lc=UgyqTPOq0qiU9JQhC_J4AaABAg.AXm-CWE-37hAZxTYksMVIpSo a bunch of leftoids created a game meant to mock the setting they used to bring themselves fame. Being someone who bites the hand that feeds is required to be a liberal.
>>98478757>>98478942Samefag.
>>98483130You have to learn this yourself, because you're being confidently wrong is a problem that you have to solve, because your retarded ego is telling you that you can't be wrong about something you have repeatedly stated objectively incorrect assertions about. Like your example: Naked Gun cannot be considered "fair use" because the concepts it is using are not copyrighted and owned as part of an IP. They aren't stealing footage from other movies and then claiming it as transformative, because that's not how a parody works. Fair Use doesn't factor in at all because all of the footage is original, as is the script, the characters, the setting, and so on. It's not a remake of an existing movie. It's a comedic spoof of an entire genre. How you can even begin to claim to know IP law while not even understanding what the concept of fair use applies to just tells everyone you're either deeply ignorant or maliciously retarded.
>>98478293It's tradition>say hello to my little friend
>>98484475I don't think the guys glorifying genocide and racism while making it fun and entertaining are left wing.Especially since the very act of making their own spin of it was a reaction to 40k being faggified.
>>98484503Eat shit.
>>98484605>I don't think the guys glorifying genocide and racismSee >>98482494
>>98484631lol I'm just going to assume this some desperate attempt at false flagging
>>98484633They're clearly making the aliens look sympathetic you bad faith shitlib.
>>98484648huh uh
>>98478214Notice the feminine posing of the marines.
>>98477800>implying it's not gonna get C&D'd to absolute shitkickery by GW layers as soon as it hits the market. If this thing survives for a year after launch i'll eat my old necron codex.
>>98484626Your example is a movie poster making a reference, which notably did not use the original photo, and is most notably not content in the movie. You very clearly paged through this book until you saw the Naked Gun poster example and thought you have a real argument, instead of realizing you were grasping at straws. The fact that you said this shit>I’ve even seen Naked Gun used as an example of parody and fair use.Just makes it obvious that you're desperately trying to speak from authority, as if you were an IP lawyer with actual experience, when you're just thumbing through a book and ignoring the context. Naked Gun wasn't sued for anything in the movie being a parody. The movie poster is the sole instance of their being a fair use dispute, and it was quickly ruled in favor of the studio, because the lawsuit was frivolous.
>>98477836"I'm sure to win because my speed is superior."
I'll probably get a copy but much like TBOI Four Souls, I rarely will get to play it seeing as it doesnt get played at in hobby stores
>>98484190They were playing and making shorts about space hulk back in the heyday of newgrounds, dude.
>>98484190They have been churning out 40k animations before you were alive, and also before all the trannie swarmed to it like locusts
>>98484746Just get some friends together and sit down at the kitchen table. Four Souls need teh banter to get the full effect and you just don't get that in genpop.
>>98485546>>98485681I'm referring to the fucking secondaries that plague 40K as a whole, not Flashgitz. I don't find them really funny but they're fine in my opinion. I hate secondaries so much.
>>98486298Why's that?
>>98477800This fag shit?
>trying to sell unpainted models to secondariesNobody is going to buy this lol
>>98482135So you can't prove its anti-Thatcher got it lmaoNTA
>>98478371I love how rapist, deformed Bugs Bunny is officially part of Loony Tunes now.
Gonna slip some of these guys into my 40k army and see how long it takes them to notice.
>>98481633You would just be reviving Angry Marines, anon.
>>98484475Uh, did you miss the potshots at Thatcher of the various old school GW guys?
>>98484475Just so you know this poster is a severely mentally ill /pol/tard who shits up /his/, /k/, /tg/, and basically anywhere he can. He's also the retard who posts "Red-Pilled Use of Women" with skaven and asks about Dirlewanger.
>>98477800>Trench Crusade isn't genuine it's corporate capitalist product made solely as a cash grab.>ZOMG Space King board game guyzz! Buy it to stick it to the woke librals!Sometimes I hate this fucking community.
>>98487747warhammers fans are literally the bottom barrel of table top gamers my man
>>98480062>supposed anti-Thatcherist satire"Worst regime imaginable" being fundie ignorant shithole hating science/reason/progress and shitting churches everywhere, racism and hatred of 'other' everywhere, women can be rulers but only by becoming brainless fundie male-like conservaturds, 1% are in charge with 99% being either wage slaves or actual slaves, and the leader of all destroying 0 IQ horde is literally Margrut ThrakaYou either are 5 or didn't try very hard kiddo...
>>98487673I'd guess hes just trying to stir shit and you're falling for it.
>>98484475>a bunch of leftoids...certified turbo chud right wingers Tom and Don who got famous for making animations of Black Templars slaughtering furfags...? You fucking absolute newfaggot.
>>98487845>and the leader of all destroying 0 IQ horde is literally Margrut ThrakaSince this has been completely utterly debunked directly by the guy who created him perhaps you might begin to have an inkling of how you are retarded and wrong about all the rest of it, too.His name, Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka, is literally just Tolkien's Black Speech for Metal-Skull Big Ork Leader.
>>98487747>>Trench Crusade isn't genuine it's corporate capitalist product made solely as a cash grab.It is thoLeftist Cr*sade lost
Why do faggot losers always bring their fringe faggot political views into wargaming?No, I don't want to see your female (trans) negro space marines.No, I don't want to see your waffen ss imperial guard.
>>98477800My body is so readyPRAISE BE TO SPACE KING!
>>98477851
>>98487845Warhammer has the aesthetic of the kind of settings that would criticize extreme fascism like history of the runestaff and nemesis the warlock but it doesn't have anything to say. 1st edition didn't even have chaos it had this whole weird plotline about enslavers and psychic evolution.
>>98488258But I do want to see your neonazi Orks.
>>98488778Skinheads aren't neonazis!!!
>>98484475Get out election tourist sangreep.
So is there anything interesting in this franchise besides vice-signalling to each other about how much of an epic redpilled kekistani you are and how much you hate women and kikes? Like I'm not being rhetoric here, I occasionally see this hideous trash pop up and everytime the discourse is basically just a big masturbation circle around how edgy 12yo humor is super cool and aryan. Yall got anything else?
>>98489910It's funny since it reminds me of my teenage years. The exact same humour that my friends and I had. It's nice.
>>98488778Da SkinHeadz tribe
>>98487673>Muh /pol/!
>>98481633Lets friggin' go reddit!!!I just know; it's gonna be epic
>>98489910>Like I'm not being rhetoric here>vice-signalling >epic redpilled kekistani >this hideous trash pop up>big masturbation circle around how edgy 12yo humor is super cool and aryan>Yall Try asking again like a normal person.
>>98477800Looks cool. I have no idea if the game itself will be good, but I'll get it for the minis. Though going off the cards it seems like the game itself is appropriately goofy.
>>98488284>1st edition didn't even have chaosI see Warhammer tourism is at an all time high
>>98488778I didn't like your fascist morkanaut.
>>98480062>Space King maybe transformative enough to constitute fair use.There's nothing to transform, Space King is a unique work of fiction and any similarity to any other grimdark science fantasy setting featuring psycho warriors in powered armors is immaterial because copyright protects the work, not the vibe.
>>98489910You are Indian or trans.
>>98490746I don't remember if its the same anon who has the blignnaughts but its fun to imagine them fighting. A super serious Goff Stormboyz one and a silly deffskullz bloodaxe pimp one.
>>98491240They are gork and mork's most favorite retards.They should do a road trip across Armageddon.
>>98490535>using ten+ year old mold-infested memesjesus, you really are from /pol/>For in the Grim Darkness of the Far Future, Mitchell McConnell is still completely fine>we just had a twelve minute conversation over the vox.
>>98490731Tourism? Chaos wasn't mentioned at all in the first edition book, it was introduced in a supplement years later. People are just looking for any reason to "uhm ackshully" you on this board istg
>>98477800I always found the youtube videos to be just incredibly generic and boring, but is the game as shown any interesting?
>>98489910this is what happens when you only interact with other psychotic leftists on discord, you think this is real and acceptable human speech
Boy, more unfunny cringe shit. I miss the days when people were sincere and would create something out of love for the game rather than trying to send some kind of faggot message.
>>98478214Imitation remains the most sincere form of flattery.
>>98495562you mean like Angry Marines? Yeah unc, EPIC WIN OVER 9000
>everything must always be viewed through the lens of my political position at all timesfind Christ
>>98487673Nope, that's just an angry troon false flagging and you're not fooling anyone.
>>98493531>tourism >calls it '1st edition instead' of just RT when they mean only that book instead of all the releases for it>thinks 1987 and 1988 are years later I think he called you correctly. The descriptions of various warp entities as malign strange monsters that take over psychers is there, as is, if you can find it, calling it demonic possession. There's all manner of goofy shit the Rogue Trader Book and you can tell everyone who wants a political take just doesn't read it and is too busy wanting to talk about obiwan the inquisitor or half eldar. There's even a bit no one ever mentions on how despite the mass suffering and pain the imperium causes it is indeed necessary.
It will be difficult to make the gameplay reflect the sourcematerial because the cartoon is a parody. The only way they could pull it off is to introduce push your luck effects like a combo which goes out of control and becomes selfdestructive if you push your luck.
>>98477825
>>98496370check the 4plebs this page, silly billy
>>98488258Thing is, the first is non-canonical, because SPace Marines are not just manly manly super-men.And the latter would be redundant, because in many cases the Imperial Guard are actually -worse- than the Waffen SS.
>>98496688*not just manly men, but manly supermen*
>>98496427Going purely off of the source material and the advertisement for the board game, I am expecting each player to play an individual Psycho Soldier and compete to kill the most NPCs.
