I think the faction I least like fighting are mono god daemons
I don’t really enjoy watching knight or Custodes games either
playing GSC in 9th was so much fun because positioning was literally the most important thing for them with the corssfire rules. Have not tried their 10th index yet if that's similar
10th is still very much about leveraging good positioning and making good use of units
GSC are intresting
Just incredibly hard to pilot
The only fans that deserve to be generalized generally are Imperium ones tbh
And even then its just the radical/extreme kind
which they are the most numerous of so 💀
bigger sample size also leads to bigger targets lmao
YEP
Also main human faction so just way more garbage to shift through.
Thankfully about as many normal people in it also exist
most normal people also don't go yell shit online unprompted
Most normal people aren’t even online much lets be real
Fortunately 💀

Mfw someone isn’t terminally online like me and doesn’t know about the intricacies of how fanbases interact at my local lgs
Technology is evil
Ludd be praiused
People who just read the books
The problem is the online half is the most local half
Insane
Oh god he’s a pather
Prefer the church, cooler title
You know it never actually occurred to me that luddites would be named after someone called Ludd
People will always whine, look at helldivers and the railgun nerf people lost their shit
Luddic Church doesn’t use literal suicide bombers
That was dumb though but I’m not gonna get started on that
Arrowhead has some uh
Questionable balancing choices
:)
Guys people aren’t using fire enough
They also have no PR department
(well it isn't if youre not the host)
-Give me more MG magazines RAAAAH-
(That’s the joke I’m making)
What’s that? No I didn’t fix the host dot bug
I'm waiting for the Illuminate to appear and people to rage at them due to the reflecting shields 
You cook everything
Illuminate are gonna be interesting
I hope they don’t reverse controls
Hate that shit
How to strike through text?
I hope they’re very elite
~~
Ugh
^
Data mines imply it’s just stratagem inputs
~meme~
Hmm
I have passed the not terminally online check 😅
We defender smg and ballistic shield in this house
You're here, you failed
In 4 days I go on a Stuntie adventure 
It’s actually really good at eats missles and even tank rounds and you’ll live
DF Adventure mode, once more
The shield explodes though
I wish heavy armor was even better
i dont even run shield, i use the anti materiel and supply pack
I wish the MG was better
and i also wish heavy armor comes with an engineering kit perk
Clear image
Run out of ammo way too fast
Freedom
Stalwart goated(for bugs)
ENHANCE
Woman custodes?!
SHE
theres like 3 MGs, all of them run out of ammo quickly which is why i run supply pack
I now understand the emperors vision
been doing it so much i feel naked without supply pack now
Also they changed the description of noble houses giving their sons to offspring
Now go make your cringe ass fanfics
frostpunk 2 coming in 2 days
Anyways I hope they keep the one shot instant kill snipers
Yes
Or without the emperor is it impossible
It’s just slow as shit
I thoguht they were handcrafted
The originals were but he trained people
Cool
He wasn’t making them all by hand through all Unifiction and the GC
Yea there's like artisan families of people trained with the knowledge to make them
People have wanted em more because there was no reason they couldn't exist.
Fanfics are for the other coomers, nothing stops them anyway

rul34 is a natural rule of the universe, nothing had stopped it and nothing ever will
Maybe
nobody has ever answered why the emperor only made sons
Or did abadon just kill him off handedly to make him look cooler
I'm on the side of Custodes being crafted from families/dynasties that are the workers that make them
Because he didn’t make any daughters
Erebus killed him off handedly
Female Sensei exist no ?
They’re made from the noble houses offspring
Plot.
theres no reason for the Emperor to not have made female primarchs
20 badass ultra tall muscle dudes sounds better for the playerbase
what plot
Plot
what part of the HH required sons
So we got plost instead of "plot"
I think you know the answer here and are being obtuse
There you have it, "plot"
no i genuinely dont
Emperor knew how we would react to a bunch of 9 foot tall women, he has seen the internet
40k started as all the primarchs were men and that hasn’t changed
The horror
Unironically with how cringe people get with any women in 40k
except for Russ, Russ was a furry
It’s half a blessing
Weren't at first Primarch not even his sons and stuff ?
Just named Generals an all
People already make a bunch of cringe female primarch art anyways
For some reason they all have massive boobs and butts
Im shocked at this
unexpected development
are you one of those "flat is justice" guys
Doesn’t matter though
Half your body weight is your boobs
fulgrim
I don't think I've seen any of Lorgar with big boobs and butts
oh you mean the absurd boob size thats borderline fetish
People fuming about not being able to romance the sister of rogue trader was funny
There’s some with uh
romance an actual person
Less armor on top
In fairness, SoB aren't under celibathy oath
I have never done romance in any video game
Doesn't look overly big though
They wouldn’t have me 😔
romance options get in the way of my combat
I would suggest meeting women irl then
its probably just that shes not interested and is too engrossed in her FAITH to romance us
You're telling me that this art has disproportionate breast ?
I'm not sober, sure, but it doesn't look that weird
Female custodes players when they read up on tts custodes
It’s so over
Wasn’t like the first custodes shirtless?
The model
No ?
Yes
i'd hit that
i mean, tts custodes trio are borderline naked
Did it get you in world of Darkness ?
TTS uses the early Custodes art for memes
Yes
i'm part of the 5% of the community that didn't get into 40k as a kid and didn't know what tts was until well after i got into it
and pasted custodes helmets on the pillar men, which in hindsight was damn clever
Werewolf’s kinda rock though
Vampire the Masquarade, Hunter, Werewolf, Mummy, Changeling
But the look we know is basically as old
Giant monster with no subtly just rips though a building in a bloody tornado
It came out very shortly after
I’m down for it
A group of friend and I are currently in a now 1.5 year old WoD Hunter campaign
i hear that we'll get a major lore drop tomorrow
Lore drop for what
A major one
DT? 40k in general ?

theyre opening the ice wall and making catgirls canon
I was supposed to join a group of friends in a VTM game like a year ago but the GM vetoed the character I made three times so I gave up.
What did you try to run 
potatolord the carbomber
Are the word bearers the worst marines at fighting?
Not notably ?
Like they can summon demons to back them up but like they themselves?
I’ve never heard anything about word bearers being HIM when it came to fighting
Only Erebus
there's no real bad space marine chapter they're kinda known for being good at combat
Tbh, World Eater are the worst figher
how
Aye but some are REALLY good like the space wolves which are apparently way better fighters then other chapters due to their training
Which I hate
fighting is literally all world eaters know
Do you assume like
World eaters do use tactics
Least tactical, depend pretty much only on their natural abilities...
Do you think on downtime, the world eaters watch old Chinese martial arts films?
World eaters have killing down to a science
Nuh uh
And they’re all able to fight like marines
lucius the shithead
lol
Like world eaters still use ranged weapons and stuff
The entire point of 30k is Legions are in massive nubmers
and can just die in droves for Le Epic
same with inductii existing
more fodders for cool war-stuff
Everything I learn about Lucius, the night lords and Kurze is against my will
Actual goblins
They just show up and be menaces for the love of the game
Well kurze doesn’t anymore
Could Kurze have ever not been a complete downer shitter?
Or was he doomed
To doomer
edgy
He’s so gross
First time I wanted Tzimisce but she objected saying that clan was banned because they're "too evil",
Then I read about them some more and discovered Old Clan Tzimisce which had different rules and culture etc and made a character for that instead, but they were refused because "Old Clan Tzimisce don't make new vamps, so you'd have to be from an older generation and too powerful" even though the rulebook said they still did make new vamps and didn't have any requirements on generation for playing them.
Then I tried a Brujah with the Flesh Eater flaw but that was also refused because "Brujah don't eat flesh" even though again the rulebook said I was allowed to do it.
Responding to the question I was asked
who asked
It's right there
it's not on my screen anymore
It's literally linked in my message
message went up. outside my field of view
Sounds fake
For the 1st one I think I would also have refused, the 2nd I would have accepted
Iirc we did have a Coldun in a previous Vamp run
Never played with a player Drujah though
See at first I didn't really think there would be much limitations because one of the other players was like a 5th generation half fae vampire with time travel magic
But I guess the limits only applied to me
Wait, Half Fae vamp ?
Does that even work ?
I don't know, was also some strange obscure clan bloodline
Iiirc, Fae born are immune to Were, Vamp, and that other thing
Zombie ?
No something else
and his sire was Guillaume, Prince of Switzerland
Dunno, not super knowledgeable about VTM, so I was basically just using the rulebook I was given to make characters and then every character would get denied for "Lore reasons" that the rulebook didn't mention and I wasn't told about beforehand. So I just decided the game wasn't for me.
Fair. Finding good group can be very difficult
Moreover when every one I'd running DnD5e
One of the girl of the group used to be in an uni group for pathfinder, god lord the story she told of what happened there
At least we can all sleep soundly knowing the Emperor has a progressive view on putting babies into the Custodes baby grinder flesh abomination machine
I can accept child soldiers but I draw the line at sexism
Is there any reason the sisters of silence were choosen to be a female unit ignoring the sister part? Like are female blanks better or something?
something something the pariah gene
Cause Siblings of Silence doesn’t sound as good
Because it's the Imperium of man
No reason.
And they're impressive warriors
Sisters of Battle got nothing to do with Sisters of Silence.
They arent related
its literally just a name
lol
Sisters of Silence are neither religious or work for the Ecclesiarchy, they work for the Astra Telepathica as their chamber militant.
Okay well before you get sidetracked
theres no reason for SoS to be just women.
simple as
I mean maybe because these women are immune and show no presence in the warp.
Not because they're just women
They have a specific gene
I'm talking about why he chose blank women
🤨
Men can also be blanks 
I'm pretty certain SoS couldn't work with SoB in lore anyway; they're mutated in a way that makes the average person scared shitless around them, plus they could be considered mutants to the SoB
I mean because women
Theres no reason.
Yeah I mean
Its just miniature stuff and lazy writing.
Not a single one
^
There is a reason just not an explained reason
Same way there isn’t a reason all the primarchs are dudes. It’s just there
So there’s no reason
An explained meaning would mean they’d write something entirely to explain it
There’s nothing like that now
It’s just, cause

Then why include something if there was no reason?
BECAUSE LAZY WRITING
That's stupid
AND MINIATURES
Just sounds like excuses to me
BECAUSE IT IS

LMAO
Literally what it is
Impossible
Man I don’t wanna see you react to the rumors over women in the custodes. Be here all century
The internet is already melting down
so much for "ill believe the complaints when i see em" lol

Rogue trader question, is a heretic playthrough fun?
The only reason I could think of is that they could just always make more of them easily.
I kinda really like the dogmatic dudes but man a heretic noble fits much better
If they're all women
Sisters of Silence already do this
they got breeding programs for it
Sneeding programs
Space Hulks just being looted for scrap by orks
Sometimes I dream about cheese.
Ghost ships are interesting to be honest but then orks take over the space hulks because big ship
Need a show where a bunch of ork’s take junk cars (space hulks) and remake them into something way better (Deadnot)
I mean orks with ghost ships is pretty cool
But space hulks are probably the coolest ships as they're just warp infused scrap that can be anything
They're just harbingers of doom usually and systems usually fall when they arrive
Who
Ah gross
Chud?
Its like an insult for someone that doesnt touch grass and calls everything "woke"
Oh
40k fans especially imperium ones are waaaaay into it tbh
Yeah the entire "online" sphere is melting rn
i mean sure putting some heart into things and getting into the spirit makes it fun, but some people just dont know how to do it in the right amount and it ends up being all consuming
Its just evil toy soldiers fighting evil toy soldiers my dude
sure i can get getting mad, i do all the time
but I dont let it dictate my entire thing lmao
and not keeping it in the game, too

like, yeah, i sometimes get into acting in character myself when i play a game, but god damn
Yeah that is fine just you know uh
dont start saying slurs maybe 💀
statue pfp user
lmaooooooo
statue pfps are almost uniformly fuckass mad
Either dreaming about rome or slingling slurs with nothing inbetween
Name
"Constantinus"
Alternatively
Primarch PFP
Racist
Or black templar pfp
They wanna be Constantin Valdor, but could only be a constant malder
If it's the heresy I'm going to horus you
This was simpyl done because GW has been ramping unisex ranges like crazy.
And they are shown to sell very well.
In this case though its entirely miniature related like I said above.
Making your factions unisex unironically makes them be bought even more
99.9% of all non-miniature content is non-GW and basically exists in it's own content bubble not related to the tabletop/basically the setting at large
ngl I do not like the new stormcast masks for the new uh guys
I forgot their name of
that upper lip is too big
Honestly I really wanna make some stormcasts without the lips. Just smooth em off
Just as an army idea
Valrak has a video talking about the fem Custodes now, the comment section is exactly what you'd expect
"I left Star Wars to get away from shit like this" 💀
Actual dumpster fire
Im just... not gonna read.
I scrolled down to like three comments and had to stop, I don't want to go any deeper
As we keep saying
There was nothing against it
the Wave 1 is just
ADB and co planned it straight up
Just a bit late since they already made the moulds
It was never impossible for Custodians to not be female
They got the word from corporate not to make them afterwards
I assume because they thought it'd be weird if the models were all dudes and the lore had ladies
And minis precede lore
Anyway watching the chuds break down
The people who are pissed were going to be pissed regardless. This could have dropped with a Pulitzer prize winning narrative behind it and been the most critically acclaimed new character in 40k in the past decade and they would still be pissing themselves about it and how it's ruined 40k
Why do people LOVE to hate Warhammer? There might have been a load of drama over the decision to move to primaris marines, not to mention the drama when content creators started to argue about who gets to make a video about it, but really, it's all part of a wider problem.

LITERALLY 4 days ago
he couldnt have timed this better
Thank you
So basically
The people who are mad
They aren't "40k fans"
They like some of the vibes
But are otherwise just drama leeches
The hobby for them isn't the minis(if they collect(unlikely))
Or the lore(if they read(they don't))
It's getting mad
You could probably write a paper on this for psych or something because it's prevalent in a lot of communities/online spaces
"you're taking my SPACE, made for MANLY man"
"Dude we're literally playing with rainbow coloured toy soldiers, what the fuck are you talking about"
people are also too hard on the reactionary side they now see anything at all that deviates from the old things as woke
mainly things that feature women, non whites, and non straight
Like the comments on Ian's video say
Tabletop gamers hate two things
Things staying the same
And things changing
Works for chuds too
yeah, no pleasing some people
We want more new things, but the new things must be the exact same as the old thing, just newer and different, but without changing anything otherwise you'll ruin it. 
Yeah just wait nobody is gonna care about this in a week
Yea it'll pass
"wtf this armour plate is 0.2 Millimeters to the left compared to the original one
Total garbage"
real first world problem, finding little things to nitpick about
People like raging about shit
especially these days
It’s why reactionary rage bait is so popular
they just be finding shit to be angry about without any real commitment
or awareness
Fans like that are the ones that make me wish I ran the Warhammer 40k lore so I could do something extreme like FEMALE OGRYN MODELS
Id do probably alot more than that with alot more mixed reception
I was going to say both ideas can work, but then I forgot that the Imperium kinda hates cloning tech
Women and people of color would’ve been my guess based off of my experience with Warhammer over the past twenty years
My LGS had to post a public announcement about personal hygiene today
Was hilarious
Lemme send it to you
What the fuck are the difference between these bolsters
Like stat wise or lore wise
Lore
Stalker bolter is a bolter with a longer barrel + scope
bolt rifle is a bolter thats longer
auto-bolt uhh idfk too many bolts
WAIT
ITS LITERALLY JUST A DIFFERENT MAGAZINE BOLTER
Auto bolt rifle is a bolter with box mag
Bolt rifle is a big bolter
Stalker is an integrally suppressed scoped one
Yeah what he said
It just has a box mag yea
Auto = Assault
Bolt = Default/Rapid fire
Stalker = Heavy
Yes
Pretty sure it's just the mags that are different
Atleast that's what it is for the Heavy Intercessors, it's just different mags you put on
All the Primaris in 9th had something like that, 3 options for their weapons
Even the Hellblasters
It's just a bolt rifle but
https://youtu.be/CkHw3A1-mUo?si=-vwR2UMnxAUT59lF
💀
Oof
Tiny bit
I scrolled up a lil after I was greeted by the discord crickets lol.
Throwing out my 2 cents - sure it's weird because it's different from the norm, but it works since I don't see why a female can't be made a custodes. They don't require gene seed
You are actually a sensible and normal person.
Thank you for this opinion lmao
meanwhile everyone else "40K IS DESTROYED NOW"

Lemme throw out my degenerate opinion now.
8 foot tall perfectly made sculpted muscular woman 🥵
Having flash backs to grey knights having the emperors geneseed
I KNEW IT WAS TOO GOOD TO LAST
Also women not having genetics in 40k smh
Also as ever
Oculus being a gigachad
Based….
Mommy mommy mommy mommy
Vargard Obyron is a scary necron
Damn time to read
ALSO LMAO THE MESSAGE BELOW IT
Neoroman
Calling people "tourist"
oooh That's why I've been seeing people throw the word tourist around. I thought people were actually being somewhat clever with their word choices but it's just a fuckin gatekeeping buzzword lol
Who is Neoroman?
Vargard Obyron is apparently one of the most talented swordsman in the galaxy. Necrons whilst not as powerful as humanity in numbers weren't incompetent
NEO ROMAN
Gatekeeping people who are there to ruin things are pretty obvious
And usually are called out
Just needed a statue pfp
So uh
Let’s see what rational warhammer twitter personalities like Marshall bohemond and woke hammer L’s have to say about this brb
Yeah no literally just "hobby tourist" = "you clearly dont know anything about 40k, you must be an outsider/tourist"
Lmfao
I mean if they are genuinely interested that is fine but if you don't like the hobby those people should be excluded
I keep thinking people are coming up with their own original phrases but it's just the new common lingo and it makes me sad lol
But it's not exactly common that people want to ruin a hobby for others and those people are losers.
As ever yep
I just wanna see the model 
Some people are losers and join the hobby to make fun of people whilst not common I have seen those weirdos
She's single handedly probably the most powerful female human in the setting now.
Unless like... St Celestine can 1 v 1 a custodes
Hmmm grannytodes...
I refuse to think about Ogyrns banging and you cant make me.
They are human
I mean have you seen Abbadon he tears apart Custodes
Custodes are powerful but not as powerful as any chaos warband
Uh depends
feel like Custodes end up becoming the butt of a joke just to sell "oooh look at this guy he's so strong and evil"
And thats also true lol
Not everyone is Abbadon
Worf effect in action once again
"Chaos Warlord" or "Chaos Champion" isn't one thing
Who can rip them apart
Same as Custodes aren't even
I really don’t give a shit that there’s female custodes but what they did to the codex and tabletop game wise is fucking awful
There's exemplary Custodes
Nah Abbadon beats the best swordsmen in the custodes
Custodes are "superior" but its the same as like how you can be the greatest swordmaster ever but get hit by a lucky arow through the brain
Yeah its pretty lame
Man is a unit
I get nerfing a faction
My new favorite horde army: Adeptus custodes
And sometimes factions aren't gonna be amazing.
But they just dumpstered them
Similar to Ad Mech
No real excuse and its lame.
They dumpstered ad mech and DA too
Here's a question, if a male custodes and female custodes love each other very much
Will their kid be a lil custodes?
Fucking sucks
Custodians are sterile.
Im sorry. No sex 😔
NOOOO
Are space marines?
Yes
I mean they're sterile and can get busy with no consequences
Just imagine that though, if custodes could have offspring humanity would be fuckin nuts
I'm just saying but anyways
Custodes are literally superior-humans so id agree but alas no jizz.
Space marines can’t get an erection without chaos interference
LMFAO
This is lore too
Siggy everything you fucking write feels like a 4chan green text statement.
I can see Eternal in the corner having an eye bleed, please no
Im nearly 30 and my experience with warhammer growing up was primarily on /tg
Im 31 so I can relate
"Show me where in the rulebook it says the Custodes can't stuff the turkey"
I have flare ups in traffic though
What's that supposed to mean?
BRUH MOMENT
Literally me
Rare eternal reward dub
To be honest cursing someone out is fine
Isn’t it required by your government
I mean
It's promoted
Pfft you mean common af
It's better then the alternative
Mak Gor’ah?
Jokes aside if you come across a Custodian thats actually "nice" you might get to romance him/her at some point beforelong if you become their scribe or some shit and they like you as a colleague/serf.
I don't think anything will beat the Hungarian government putting out ads of anime girls explaining how Romani commit most crimes despite being a small part of the population
The problem is this is too rare to really happen lmao
also like, most their helpers are GELDED SLAVES
Can you please send me this
I need it
One second
I mean they have knowledge
Wait their cocks work?
We don't know
^
Cause space marines don’t we have that confirmed
The Rizztodian Guard
Same with marines, probably just no drive.
Like it probably does, "genetic perfection" and all that 
They just can't make children
GOOD.
There's some implications that some space wolves still get it on after they ascend.
Well anyways
Lukas goes an bangs the girlfriend of his old warrior buddies, as a joke.
He doesn't even like sex.
Hes literally just Dennis the Menace
HE PUTS LICE IN A COMPANY LEADER'S BEARD FFS
Probably.
Lots of oil baths
what a funny soundin fella!
A little trolling
Almost every custodian is their own person too
I need a towel
"THEY ARE MEN OF STONE, THEY FEEL NOTHING"
then the next
"Oh man i love making tea!"
its great lmao
That's why Iron Hands are the best, they can have a plasma cannon for a penis.
Iron Warriors would probably lose ngl
Common Medusan W
I have a friend who was an inhuman combat machine in the sandbox who now devotes his life to animal conservation
Custodes are like
"Hey brah I'm dickedes I don't like authority and love surfing and stuff"
Emperor: "stab yourself"
"Whatever you say boss man here I go stabbing"
They're just about dying and risking everything for victory iron warriors are brutal while reckless
Did you know a woman originally wrote castelvania
It explains everything
least romantic Iron Hand
Basically just different verisons of Fabio
why are there no psykers in the heretic's army?
They have a tendency to explode or get sacrificed
Anime was made by a different person but the original written stuff for it was made by a woman but I forgot her name.
they are
Wolfer mention's them
Oh sure!
They're probably busy praising Nurgle
ohhhhhh maby just none in game ig
Too valuable to risk (AKA haven't been added to the game yet)
Just give me a chapter of your choosing to join my deathwatch army, if I don’t have the decal or shoulder I have to freehand the symbol of the chapter
And if you pick lamenters I won’t do it
There is he mentions witches
Dolara$ was already messaging the artist smh
Which are psykers but maybe they're too important for frontlines
I would like to fight a psyker boss
Me trying to show my dad me 100 percenting even flow on guitar hero 3 to my dad while he’s busy arguing with mom during the 2008 economic depression be like

That was a very specific just kidding
No they're talking about a gang named after the Xenos
Man the human body makes no damn sense
To what I read
They are all 3
Oh
This is a Warhammer moment god damn
Yeha
A lot of space marine chapters have reaver
Just IBS
I wouldn't keep that in the closet
My closet door is open it's just cozy and warm in there
I'm just saying
Closets are nice and warm
It has a boiler
Boiler for sale
Your closet has a boiler?
My closet has a boiler
Sounds like the name of a Primus song
Damn son
That's a big boiler and other thing
Not mine in particular just something like that
Reference pictures are easier sometimes
would you guys drink squirtle water
Probably not
If you're taking suggestions, why not draw a simple Triskelion
oh god my eyes
Do you think Karnak twins use daemonic weapons?
I mean as their weapons look so different
Maybe lesser daemons enchanted in their weapons
But they are more likely to be betrayed if they show any weakness
Using daemonic weapons
Eyyy Female Custodes confirmed
No
Lmao yeah we talked about it a bit above
the meltdown around it is hilarious as if its like a huge setting changing thing when its just a neat little addition to a side faction
Yah let them whine. Never understood the obsession with denying the existence of literally half the human population.
Now we just need lady Primaris
Finally, Lady Dimiscreau can exist in 40k....
Ironically Lady D is Primarch sized
like shes fucking MASSIVE
dwarfs Astartes even
@storm jungle help
Give her the best black library book and the best black library miniature

Look at it like this
Being ladies is a core part of the Sisters thing
Being dudes is not a core part of marines or custodes
Isn’t sisters lore literally like to exploit a loophole?
Ye
Yes it is.
My country's WH40K society is in open revolt because I excitedly showed the femstodes phot
LMAO
Bit different than injecting super drugs into a guy
yeah uh pro tip
literally just go afk for a bit
those people are gonna go chimp for a few days/week
I now want to ban them from my hosting locations
Yah.
Ah
OH WAIT YOU GOT POWER?
Ok
Oh yeah like
if they are being straight up sexist then yeah lol
otherwise tell em to knock it off
Is it true GW mae a female custodes?
Yes
Yes
I got to take a break from dd2 and play that Vermintide update
Is the entire 40k internet about to implode?
Yes
Yeah, I'm not the head but the head is the sexist
Man my condolences
that sucks
Bermuda suxxx
💀
Its gonna pass in a week but like
i love how they treat this like its setting ending
I quote "40k will just like be like star wars now"
like... huh???
LMAO
Wow it's almost like grifting chuds have no real attachment to the setting and are just using it as a vessel for their shitty views 🤔
Literally
well idk if u know this but like
the alt right/nazi side of warhammer
has been THEORIZING
female space marines because woke ANY DAY NOW
bro they are saying a "rogue intern" did this
for about 10 years
like... do you guys not know how this work
Yeah lol
It went to print
I mean, It was never said custodes were all male, seriously guys!
In every language
^
yep this too
custodes are all hand crafted so it kind of makes sense but also
if there is just ONE female custodes
isnt that kind of MORE problematic?
xD
Nah theres multiple
Fellowship of Demigods™️
Nazis thrive off building up an impossible enemy that's also inferior to you
The somehow inevitable fem marines that totally aren't canon trust me guys is one such thing
Personally I don't mind custodes/SM being all male
And they always get pummeled at the end
I mind it with custodes
its dumb
never made sense
They just take all donated earth babies, of course some are female
the emperor just likes big naked dudes astatic
is that not a valid personality trait?
xD
Not when you are a warlord
if he was a guy i knew IRL then yes

Anyway again like it makes sense because Custodes are literally suppose to be the meme of "peak human physique", gigachads and gigachadettes.
it kind of makes sense with SM because the technology is made to employ on the male DNA
Marines meanwhile are like a can of sloppy tuna
but custodes are hand crafted
It doesnt make sense with marines either
you literally can make them whatever you want
yea but I mean its internally consistent and it fits a design aesthetic
like you would literally have to develop two completely seperate gene therapies to overwrite the genes of male and female space marines
I assume intersex and people with different numbers of chromosomes would also be inelligible
its really not that unreasonable at all
The entire reason Marines are all-men is because 40k was an IP made to sell to hyper teenage boys that liked bigs and big dudes in armor.
Theres no plausible lore exploration for gender genes in a setting thats 40k years inot the future.
Its absolutely unreasonable lmao

its just legacy lore
theres no reason for it, GW just doesnt want to change it
which is fine
damn maybe the nazis were right lol. i never talked to someone who had that opinion
What opinion
Prolly not tbh
that lore is made up? 💀
Thank you for backing me up @storm jungle, the worst bit is that I am THE ONLY CUSTODES PERSON IN MY ENTIRE COUNTRY
Ive seen all these cringe alt right people saying that there is this huge group of people advocating for female space marines
ive never met one who thinks its stupid before
Entire way it works via 40k mumbo jumbo is basically hijacking puberty to make you develop in a different direction
thats all
no thats not it at all
hijacking puberty would be like hormone therapy
Bro
space marines are a full genetic rewrite
we are 40k years in the future
That's what they do lol
They stuff the Geneseed in and it makes you develop different
"Oh we can crack fucking planets but genes too hard"
I think in the setting they do say that the genes rewritting thing is VERY hard
Nah its not
Then over time you get steroids, steroids, steroids, steroids plus organs here and there
GW rewrites shit all the time
"Oh this just exists now"
Primaris were THE greatest example of this
literally out of fucking nowhere
yea and primaris is bad
"where were they all this time"
"oh just under mars"
oh lol
they are just whatever
i hate primaris xD
slop is still slop
I like some of the models, I think the primaris lore is very... anti 40k and I think it was just to drive sales
40k has always been about sales
the lore doesnt matter
never has
Now you're sounding like some people I know
but primaris was an obvious cash grab
But basically they are just whatever
like i said the lore is inconsequential
it is to them
and nah it isnt
most people dont care
They are here to play the tabletop
not argue about titan sizes
Consoomers consoom
I think there are a lot of people who are into 40k primarily through the books/lore/video games and stuff
like me
Its sizable but not nearly sizable enough like the tableotp portion
those are the people that matter to GW
the ones that make money
Anyway on what Dilara was saying yes we are 40k years into the future but its pretty clear that technology has gone backwards not forwards.
Nah
Primaris was a macguffin like a lot of 40k super techs are.
the Imperium has pretty advanced tech for human standards
biologus literally do all sorts of genecraft
yea but they have no idea how it works
down t literally cloning people
this is like
They do tho
dude I think you just dont know 40k lol
...
You like a setting so inconsistent with lore that it makes most comic universes seem coherent
Lore is fickle, it can, does, and will change on a whim if and whenever the models or corporate or the writers demand it to
The only issue here is rooted in the fandom having a mass population of lore jockeys who passively consume the lore and opinions of a bunch of shit heels and memes who somehow managed to hammer in to most fans that the lore is good, and that "changing* the lore is bad, and that something "anti 40k" exists
the whole point is the mechanicus are following 10k year old tech manuals they barely understand
this is like
a CORE setting point
^
Anyway
Most technology is lost and sacred
the Imperium still has advanced tech
BY
HUMAN
STANDARDS
i didnt say they have fucking DAOT tech lol

it took the emperor hundreds of years and the MOON experts to make the space marine geneseed
