When I see the cover picture of that game on steam, I take a very close look at the "sister", and I just roll my eyes and look the other way.
>>
>>750852397
ii can somewhat understand going for a sister PC in Boltgun2 since she provides a pretty different weapon selection compared to the Space Marine, but they could have chosen something else for a secound PC like a Grey Knight or a Custodian
>>
40k is a pozzed bugman franchise, even worse since the HH and Age of Girlyman, and we'll never get a good game of any kind, let alone Sororitas focused.

Fantasy was similarly ruined by End Times.

So what was the point of AoS?
Does that mean that they're going to support TOW from now on with more resources and manpower?
Or does it mean we're getting yet another iteration of AoS and it's somehow even worse lore-wise?
>>
>>750854301
the latter, last world, is still just AoS but with different lore than the first couple of editions
>>
>>750854301

A different (in this case worse) setting and making a tabletop rule set that wasn't complete garbage like fantasy battle.
>>
>>750854508
Aren't they killing off Sigmar according to the leaks?
>>
>>750854301
No they're just changing the setting. I'm fine with that since one of the worst things about AoS was all the different realms instead of it just being one coherent setting.

>>750852173
I loved that starship troopers game but yeah it probably sold like 10k copies max. Pitiful return for a company of 100+ people. I'm sure they bet on the warhammer audience to just buy anything with that brand on it but warhammer survivors is the worst vampire survivors clone I've ever played and boltgun was marketed entirely on having the girlfriend of the 1st game's VA be a VA in the sequel. Mind boggling stuff.

Boltgun is a simple pixelated boomer shooter. No way it was made by so many devs.

>>750854301
TOW has already received a boost in support but it will always be a game done by the specialist game studio while AoS is done by the main team. If the main team wanted to do a rank and flank game then they'd probably make a new one entirely.

Drukhari are a pain to paint, too many jagged parts and spikes that tend to dribble out if you're not careful
Also, Drukhari are kinda made for hit and run strats instead of standing there shooting at the other team, so if you go in with the wrong mindset for it that's game
Also, expect to be called a faggot every two turns because to be Drukhari you need to play like a dick

Basically, previously the Sisters main gimmick in the lore that made them so cool was that they were so devoted to the God-Emperor to a fanatical degree that they simply couldn't be corrupted. Ever. But then Arks of Omen dropped. A recent event that said "No they can totally be corrupted. Here's an entire regiment that started worshipping Khorn. Any claim of the opposite were just echlesiarchal propaganda."
Mind you this was the same update that gave us female custodes, so they just casually retconned two factions in one fell swoop.

Neither of these things mattered. They were momentary headlines made to get attentions for their respective factions because those factions are not Space Marines. Nothing of consequence came out of either, and nothing ever will, because the only factions that matter in 40k are Marines and Chaos Marines.
Pariah Nexus meant nothing and has gone nowhere.
4th Tyrannic War was a colossal flop that lasted less than a month.
The new war on Armageddon is already forgotten and will continue to be forgotten until Angron shows up there.
40k is about Primarchs and Space Marines. Everyone elsecis just these for background filler.

Nah that's just chaos cult propoganda. They are just assmad they are so cool the God Emperor himself personally sends them miracles while their gods have done nothing but torture them for 10k years

Am I completely misreading SoB if I think the bit is that they're religious zealots in power armor using bolters and waves of fanatical chaff meat waves that worship a god that gives them warp magic powers aka they're literally just chaos space marines that look like nuns.

>>
>>750881905
Originally yes, their blind devotion and zealotry was meant to be a more dark and detrimental aspect of their background.
Now, GW has spun it that not only is their zealotry a good thing that actively brings about miracles, but Chaos Marines now also don't worship the Chaos Gods or only do so grudgingly, with Daemons also being downplayed significantly.

This also sucks, it just removes character and make everything bland.
Why would you want to play non chaos CSM? Why would you play non emperor-worshipping SoB? Their gimmick is a source of strength and should be developed. Like SoB being "incorruptible" because their souls already belong to the emperor and they can't change their minds, just like a devoted chaos cultist can't just have a change of mind and stop.

One of the lead writers for 40k content is a vehement athiest with daddy issues who wants to self-insert as Abaddon telling the Emperor and the Chaos Gods to fuck off while being super duper special and strong enough to get away with it.
Essentially GW doesn't want a grimdark villain, they want Saturday Morning cartoon villains with an 'empathetic' spin on them.
It's why all of the Daemon Primarchs are those who were 'wronged' by the Gods, meanwhile Lorgar and the Word Bearers are being left out due to not only worshipping the Gods earnestly, but also being exceedingly competent while doing so. GW even went so far as to make up an entirely new character, the Anchorite, just to say that ACTUALLY the Word Bearers are all wrong and if they had just been more faithful to the Emperor they'd realize Monarchia was really just a test and everyone except him failed, and ACTUALLY the Imperial Creed ISN'T based on Lorgar's writings but instead the Anchorite's, who is super duper loyal to the Emperor.

Hmm. The Anchorite part is true but the rest is dubious.

GW have explicitly stated that they want to move 40k away from grimdark so them raping the lore and character of the setting is likely intentional.

I'm not saying they don't lose, anon, my point is that being a jobber isn't an inherently bad thing. It's in the name; jobbers exist so other characters can get a boost. It's their job.

Greater daemons job half the time but are often the mastermind or instigator and they get to take minor/actual Ws all over the place. Theyre also consistently presented as a real threat anytime theyre mentioned with significant gravitas. It also doesn't matter to them if they win or lose since they're immortal and their bosses are just shy of being omnipotent.

Meanwhile Khaine doesn't mastermind shit, takes nothing but Ls, and has multiple scenes where he's beaten for comedic relief. Aka, a shitty jobber.

Let's see if I can recall any Avatar fights in actual books.

There was one in Fulgrim. Fulgrim casually strangles one to death without even noticing that he was in a fight with it. This was dumb at publication and is even dumber now that the Avatar is like 2/3x his height.

Oh, there's the tyranid codex where the Avatar laughingly challenges the hivemind to 1v1 him and promptly gets gangraped by carnifexes.

Let's look at my actual eldar codices and books....nada....nada....nada....oh, the 3e codex says if the avatar dies he respawns but this is countered by the Last Guardian, a much more recent audio book where the Craftworld of Kher Ys has its Avatar killed permanently, either way kind of doesn't matter. No feats for Lavaboy in 40k other than getting his ass beat.

Calgar beat one up too iirc but I can't be arsed to read through every marine codex rn.

No Ws here.

Primarchwank.
>1v1 the Hivemind
It was the Swarmlord, actually, and this was expanded on in Valedor. It took twelve stampeding Carnifexes to take down the Avatar, and shortly after that Prince Yriel arrived with the Spear of Twilight and one-shot the Swarmlord with it, causing even the Hive Mind to reel. Iyanden's Avatar would later get a rematch with the Swarmlord and casually win. In the same book Biel Tan's Avatar spent nearly two weeks fighting two entire swarms of Tyranids by himself, to the point that when Biel Tan's forces returned they found him still fighting them on top of a literal mountain of Tyranid corpses. He notably never loses as well, as he's shown falling back with Biel Tan's forces as the planet starts to break.
Il-Kaithe's Avatar also appears in Ciaphas Cain: Choose Your Enemies, where it drops onto a Slaaneshi Daemon Prince from essentially low orbit, before beating and perma-killing her with the Wailing Doom.
Then there was Warboss as mentioned earlier, where it took three Warboss-tier Orks just to immobilize an Avatar for a moment before it broke free.
>>
>>750885006
Who are you quoting?
>>
>>750887307
This is true, but also makes the Avatar look worse since now it's losing to a guy flickering in and out of consciousness with a daemon that he should be able to 1v1 occasionally seizing control and actually fighting against him. In most other stories this would usually result in the opponent gaining the upper hand due to the fact that Fulgrim doesn't know wtf is going on every time he gets back in control but nah.

Because GW is ran by fuckign retards that don't actually see the true value of their product. That much is evident in the fucking retarded decisions they have been making for years when it comes both to their models, the rules and in general the misshandling of their IP.

Primarchs literally can't lose even when logic states they should, unless they're fighting another Primarch. Angron is the only exception to this rule since he has a weekly respawn timer making his losses virtually meaningless.
There's a scene in the Siege of Terta where Sanguinius fights like a dozen Bloodthirsters at once and instead of seeming cool it's just stupid, since all it serves to do is make Bloodthirsters seem weak given Sanguinius already wins the fight by way of his death being later in the script.
Primarchs are a genuine cancer on 40k.

90% chance you read the Path of the Eldar trilogy, which is widely considered to be one of the worst Xenos series GW has ever produced right next to the Ynnari Trilogy-Turned-Duology.
Gav Thorpe's infamously the worst writer GW had in their employ for years, and virtually EVERYTHING he wrote panned out badly. He was also, unfortunately, the lead writer for the Eldar for many years after their initial introduction. The entire reason Eldar come off as jobbers and losers is because Gav INTENTIONALLY WROTE THEM THAT WAY FOR YEARS, as he doesn't like Elves.
Valedor is luckily not written by Gav, and actually tries to portray both Eldar and Tyranids in cool ways.

>>750888750
Gav has some good ideas, like how the Eldar splinter groups are all linked etc and how Dark Eldar and Craftworld Eldar aren't mortal enemies.
His main fucking issue is that that he thinks that Eldar being self righteous and arrogant race supremacists is somehow a "flaw" in them and that the eldar are fools etc.

Them being giga racists that see all non eldar races as their lessers, is fucking based and part of their appeal.

He also wrote the Ulthuan plotline in End Times where it turna out all the Phoenix Kings were liars and Malekith was actually right all along and also everything the High Elves ever stood for or defended was either destroyed or retroactively made a lie, with Tyrion literally getting cucked to death.

Yeah, his ideas for Warhammer fantasy were giga-garbage.

I prefer the Craftworld Eldar and Dark Eldar not being mortal enemies because it makes sense given their origins as survivors of the fall, and unnecessary conflict between the two just further diminishes the already scarce Eldar population.

However High Elves and Dark Elves allying under Malekith in end times is pure fucking lore rape. Part of the appeal of the High Elf and Dark Elf relations in Warhammer Fantasy was the total race war/civil war mindset they had kept going for millenia and how utterly they despise one another.

Gav Thorpe was a member of the GW 'old guard' that made him basically untouchable. He didn't leave the company until after the Fall Of Cadia which prompted the major management shake up which in turn started the "Only the Imperium matters" mindset that GW now has.

M8, read the actual lore. Eldar are superhuman beings. Even the average eldar is basically a super soldier when compared to a baseline human.

Eldar psychic powers are also heavily kept in check by the fact that Slaanesh beelines for their souls if they actually tap into their proper psychic might. The whole system of using psychic runes to cast powers is something the Craftworld Eldar developed after the fall in order to keep using their psychic powers in some capacity while evading the predations of Slaanesh, whereas the Dark Eldar just made using psychic powers basically a capital offence in Commoragh because it could draw the attention of Slaanesh.

Humans do not have a comparable power cap on their psychic shenanigans and the consquences of getting posessed by Deamons or whatever for using their psychic powers too recklessly is also far lesser for humans as their souls are just consumed, whereas Eldar souls are kept in perpetual giga rape torment by Slaanesh forever whenever she who thirsts manages to snatch an Eldar soul.

The Craftworld Eldar and Exodites were the gigachuds of the pre-fall eldar empire who were telling everyone around them that their degeneracy was going to lead to the collapse of their empire. The exodites bugged out whereas the Craftworlder stayed around trying to warn the other Eldar and save their race until it was too late.

Thus, they are basically the descendants of Eldar chuds that got proven right. Dark Eldar in contrast are the descendants of the eldar gooners that were doing the sicko shit that led to the birth of Slaanesh.

who remembers pre fall civilization. I don't actually know when he was first born. Their culture was getting raped for 12k years. Chud/normie/lefties/whatnot aren't defined in absolutes but against the present Overton window.

The chuds of today don't blink at what would have been obscene or absurd a century ago let alone have the capacity to adopt the morals and standards of that era. Who knows how far 12000 years of a reckless unfettered descent into madness would move the needle even with puritanical revisions if half the population was born 6000 years before the fall they'd be the same relative distance that we are to Mesopotamia. But at least we have all the archeological research and databases. Most of those probably went poof during the fall and it's not even like they can directly recreate their old culture thanks to slaanesh forcing them on the paths system.

I fully expect some level of weird fuckery society wide but if that's not the focus of the novel it doesn't need to be mentioned.

Sure, but that didn't involve them getting rid of their caste system or the fucking khala like SC2 did.

I fucking loathe the way Blizzard handled the protoss in Starcraft 2. Legacy of the Void raped Protoss lore just as much Heart of the Swarm raped the Zerg lore.

Byt the end of LotV the Protoss are basically just recolored humans with magic tech in every way. All the unique elements of their culture are just gone. The fucking Khala being gone from the Protoss is basically the equivalent of if GW removed the path system from the Eldar, or made it so that anyone can just become a Space Marine by putting on the armor etc. Khala was one of the core pillars of Protoss culture and the Zealots and High Templars were fucking religious warriors who channeled the collective psychic energies of not just themselves, but the Khala itself.

GW might be retarded but at least they have some modicum of respect for the lore of their IPs. Blizzard clearly did not give a single fuck about what the protoss were originally established as.

Vect is also about as old as Eldrad but I don't think either of them has perfect recollections of the pre-fall Eldar society. Eldar don't usually live for 10 thousand years, their lifespands stretch into the thousands of years yes, but 10 thousand is still very old. Basically all the Eldar that actually lived in the heyday of the pre-fall eldar empire are dead. The only actual proper survivors of that society that remember it are the oldest of the Haemonculi. Those fucks were often part of the very pleasure cults that were trying to bring about the birth of Slaanesh (the pleasure cultists thought that Slaanesh would just join the existing Eldar pantheon rather than become a proper chaos god).

I will say actually list building feels like trying to hit a moving target since this is basically a live service game with patches and nerfs. I'm partially bought into sisters and orks, but not fully, and it will take me multiple months to acquire and build and paint everything once I do finish a list, at which point half of the army could be nerfed to near unplayability or drastically change the list, which will require more months to buy/build/paint

The proper way to enjoy 40k is to make up your own lore for your own dudes and play the fucking game with your miniatures with your friends.

The official lore is just the sandbox to justify why your dudemen are fighting your friend's dudemen. People that want a story out of 40k don't fucking get that the point of the setting is to faciliate plastic toy wargame battles for nerds.

No, it is not.

Retarded strawman.

Let me put this as simply that your subhuman mongrel brain can get it.

I preferred it, when the Protoss were mysterious, dogmatic and at least a little bit ALIEN, psychic ayylmaos whose society was organized based on their own systems and culture, at the heart of which was the Khala, which is basically a pseudo hivemind and racial memory the Protoss of Aiur shared.

I dislike SC2 because it got rid of everything unique about the protoss and basically made Artanis a liberal ideologue dismantling the protoss culture and spouting values that were indistinguishable from the values of some average libshit troughout the campaign. It is fucking insufferable to play trough.

By the end of SC2 there is no meaningful difference between the values Artanis has vs the values Jim Raynor has.

Ultimately, It's a combination of GW fuckery and Owlcat's own faggotry.

Presumably yes. How that works probably varies depending on the individual Craftworld.

Craftworlds are propably the best places to live in all of 40k. They are essentially mostly post scarcity utopian moon sized space cruiseships with enclosed ecosystems, gardens, luxurious by human standards living accomodations, full of beautiful and ageless space elves who for the most part, just live relatively carefree lives dedicated to their autismal hobbies, some of which simply include being wizards and warriors. The standard eldar footsoldiers, the guardians are basically citizen militia raised when the craftworld needs to bolster their aspect warrior forces. The actual aspect warriors are basically volunteer war autists.

To elaborate on the point, Saim-Han for example has entire stretches of the craftworld that are basically just wilderness, race tracks and obstacle courses for the lunatics of that craftworld to race their jetbikes on.

The Craftworld Eldar, whenever their craftworlds are not under attack etc, basically live the comfiest lives in all of 40k. Just being space elf neets with hobbies that consume their lives, essentially.

No, the imperium is space russia. Guardians are still elite soldiers and are not treated as expendable chaff to be thrown into the meat grinder. Eldar Guardians are more comparable to national guard etc type of non elite, voluntary military service type of deals, whereas aspect warriors are essentially career soldiers.

Okay. Eldar guardians were used as expendable chaff to be thrown into the meat grinder on Yanden, Valedor, Vigilus (literally all appearance of Eldar in the recent events of the setting) and all Dawn of War series.

Object holding is not the same as being chaff, you retard.
Chaff units are shit like termagants and hormagaunts, or basic imperial guard squads. Shit you can just use to screen other units and whose only role is to fucking absorb bullets. If you use guardians like that then you are playing the Eldar wrong because the guardians are not efficient at such a role. They exist to be backline support units, hold objectives and take potshot at enemy units with their weapon platforms while actual aspect warriors or vehicles do the fighting.

I mean, it kind of is for the quality of the game. But I've considered it to have been in decline for like a decade now. The removal of vehicle facings and simplificaiton of the rules were tremenouds mistakes the game has never truly recovered from. The only thing 40k really has left in it for me at least, is the inertia of nostalgia for it, the aesthetics and lore of the factions I like, and the friends I have who play it still. The actual game is kind of garbage these days.

It has been years since I read "Eldar Prophecy", but I think an avatar of khaine was summoned in that book at some point. Pretty sure it failed. All I really remember is that the MC's craftworld gets raped by chaos in the end.

I don't recommend anyone read the book to fact check me. It was written by C.S. Goto and we all around a pretty terrible experience to read.
>>
>>750901332
C.S. Goto is a bogeyman of old GW writing, and all of his works have been rendered non-canon. He even did the Dawn of War books, in which Taldeer dies in Winter Assault and Macha gets killed by crystal shrapnel because she meditated too hard.

>>750901874
The trick is to just ignore shit you dislike especially if it is just some black library slop, and focus on the core lore of the Eldar which is gigakino, and their aesthetics which are still among the best in all of 40k.

You can do what you want with your own Eldar in the end. Nobody forces you to give a fuck about what some retarded faggots write about them.
>>
>>750901874
The Eldar lore situation is the same as 40k as a whole, but without a layer of paint to cover it up; The best 40k lore is that which GW has very little involvement in and which Black Library has virtually no involvement in. Take a faction you like the aesthetics and base lore of, then make your own subfaction and plotlines utilizing them. GW only ever cares about selling plastic, and doesn't care abiut any lire or stories behind it. Theh intentionally WANT new customers to gravitate towards established subfactions and characters, not for the sake of those characters but rather because they can charge $40+ for a single named character model that way. The best example of this is Titus, who after his big break in SM2 and Secret Level now costs a whopping $90 to field on the table.
Making headcanons and personal stories is the best way to engage with 40k lore.
>>
>>750881006

>>
>>750902280
It wasn't always like this.
Back in the 90ies and early 2000nds GW put out really kino lore for 40k in general, and eldar especially. White Dwarf articles on Eldar are what got me into the hobby in the first place, back when Eldar were getting their range refresh that introduced plastic Dire Avengers I think. I fucking love Goodwin's concept art for the Eldar.

There's a diablo-like game where one of the classes is sister of battle. I know that's a far cry from space marine-like game but it's probably the most we actually have right now that is not pixel stuff like boltgun 2 or a side character in a turn base game like rogue trader.

For more macro stuff like controlling forces in a battle and whatnot, battlesector has sisters of battle as a faction. A game like space marine 2 with sisters of battle is likely never leaving dream territory.

She's definitely Soriritas, a full sister. Sister is just the 2nd rank in 8 ranks (not including Repentia which would be low the lowest rank).
If you mean she won't be wearing full power armor yeah she definitely won't (but maybe in the FOMO cash shop one day).
The only rank below a Sister is a Novice and they don't send Novices out on their own anywhere. Sisters however? Sure.
Pic related, the default outfit for the sister.
