Fantasy was more interesting, if largely unwritten, before it got so popular it was brought back during the age of Blizzardification of Warhammer. Whilst we likely won't get Indian Tigers, we do have a new faction, China, who has no reason to fight every other faction in the setting except sort of Chaos but everyone in that army isn't Chinese but Caucasian (or Nigerian) and the only other potential faction they could face, the Dark Elves, aren't available. Will we see any of Tilea? What about the lizardmen? Will a man ever lead Chaos ever again? Is their new Bossgirl a dark vision of 40K's future when Abaddon is deemed too white and male?
Oh and the strangest part about the new fandom is everyone saying beastmen and mutants aren't actually innately evil and it's actually the Empire that makes them evil. Even when they don't live in it. It's all so tiresome.

For every /k/ story you'd find in an Empire pub from a hunter who caught and lay one "that was asking for it", you'd have 10,000 stories about a mercenary watching his fellow man get gored and eaten by a smelly creature (with no tits because she wasn't pregnant), because even though beastwomen are smaller than beastmen, beastmen aren't smaller than you.

GW used to be a scrappy British garage company making tabletop games for fun.
At some point they began to hate their audience and their product because as it turns out a lot of what made Warhammers (both of them) appealing to people directly hurt the cash flow.
What's even funnier is that the Trench Crusade which was meant to be ran more like the old Warhammer practically speedran the greedy company pipeline and fell into the same traps.
So yeah, cycles of guilt o algo.

>>748128718
No. They spent all their time traveling the web and only caught glimpses of the devolution when they stopped to resupply every couple centuries. Their distance from eldar as a whole is why they aret drooling sadists like the dark eldar.

For the record, parasitism is the purest form of evil.
Tyranids are the worst guys because they're the only ones that have no sustainable ecosystem. Even chaos can fashion some deus ex machina to keep things going as the warp bleeds in. Tyranids will just have rocks.

Chaos is literally called "Ruinous Powers".

They get their resources only from plunder,
>>
>>748131342
The warp is deus ex machina. You literally cannot compete with a timeless realm when it comes to sustainability.
>>
>>748131441
They're parasites who take their time not completely killing off their host (humanity). Tyrannids are parasites that kill off their host quickly, genestealer infiltration aside. That's the difference.
>>
>>748131505
>take their time
What time? The warp exists outside time. If they have issues they will just use time travel. They don't give a fuck about logistics and never will.

If I recall correctly, it was mainly an attempt at explaining why Tigermen can be "beast-men" without being evil rapeniggers. And it was the influence of Chaos that makes them evil, not the Empire

Warp entities only do what everyone else is thinking, the chaos gods would not exist at all if the hearts of men and xenos were not already filled with evil.

With this in mind the Eldar are most evil as nobody in the previous billions of years of history managed to be so depraved they tore a hole in the fabric of reality.

Fighting Fantasy gameplay was shit, the combat was ass and super simple and there were a shitton of instadeath decisions or even dead ends that you don't know about for about 10 minutes in, some are so anal that you need to follow the super specific pwth with the items you need in a certain order, to beat it, but the atmosphere and artwork was so good I couldn't stop replaying it.

I wasted several thousands of hours with these fucking things.

Honestly the mod can be difficult if you dont know what you are doing, space marine campaign is brutal just because getting power armor is difficult on the start and you start fighting high tier enemies at the start. If you want to give it a try I recommend starting as the imperial guard.
>>
>>748137213
OpenXCom is great but it is primarily aimed at people who played the original, so it may not end up being your thing and might struggle coming to grasps with the UI. That said if you do end up liking it there are some great mods for it.

If they were getting a full army release then yeah they would have gotten Primaris'd, but KT is the place where they just do single kit releases that don't necessarily need to be tied to a full army.
