It's the pronouns, we're both too woke

azure knoll

similar-looking

#

But yeah basically 90% of the outrage is basically just sexists

queen laurel
green loom
#

They don't even realise lol they're not self aware enough

azure knoll
#

may i mention a certain akkadian whose video youtube recommended to me who i never thought knew bout warhammer?

queen laurel
#

They are straight up saying they do not want a woman in their circle jerk of men covered in gold

green loom
azure knoll
#

gosh is that the person?

#

NO

green loom
#

It's sargon of akkad right

azure knoll
#

THERE'S NO WAY HE SAID THAT

green loom
#

He did

#

And he keeps company with pedos and racists so like

#

not shocking lol

"Benjamin was not elected, with his party getting only 3.22% of the vote in his native South West England constituency (a drop of 29.1% from 2014) and losing both of its seats in the region, as well as all twenty-two of its seats across the rest of Britain." - what hate gets people like this

queen laurel

Shadman or Shadiversity?

azure knoll

"In response to Labour Party politician and Member of Parliament Jess Phillips' statement that rape threats are commonplace for her, Benjamin said in May 2016, "I wouldn't even rape you #AntiRapeThreats #FeminismIsCancer" in a YouTube video and repeated this on Twitter."

the one that draws, i assume

#

The Mormon isn't really a pedo, I think

#

But I wouldn't put it past him

#

Granted his very funny totally-not-self-insert-power-fantasy char did keep underage sex slaves

azure knoll
#

benny?

green loom
#

Carl?

#

No

#

Shad M Brooks

#

aka shadiversity

azure knoll
#

NO

green loom
#

History tuber and known incel

#

Well

azure knoll
#

nah i'm never watching another shadiversity video

green loom
#

"History tuber" might be giving him too much credit

#

Since he has no credentials and at the best of times repeats word of mouth if he's not straight up lying

azure knoll
#

do these people even like women? this is something i'd expect from somebody who isn't sexually attracted to women

rocky gale
#

He's also used like Mormon religious texts as historical evidence in the past

queen laurel
green loom
#

He has a second channel where all he does is complain about "girl bosses"

#

One of his funnier controversies was getting mad at the mario movie for

#

checks notes

shadow plover
#

he is such a sad little man

green loom
#

Peach wearing pants/her mario kart outfit

queen laurel
green loom
#

I mean he did

queen laurel
green loom
#

But the pants thing just caught on because it's very funny and deluded

rocky gale
#

Had to check I wasn't what?

azure knoll
#

that you and ederius over here weren't the same person

rocky gale
#

Oh

azure knoll
#

similar-looking names and profile pictures if you don't focus on details but only on colors and landmark characters of a name

golden meteor
#

Would Vulkan be cool with the Tau I wonder

#

If yknow

green loom
#

No

golden meteor
#

They actually sat and talked

green loom
#

No

golden meteor
#

Alright well you saying no doesn’t tell me much but thank you for trying

green loom
#

His values kinda go inherently against the greater good and also he's still wholesale xenophobic

celest dome
#

Nthing on lore would point to him being cool with the Tau

golden meteor
#

Even if the Tau has humans among them

green loom
#

They may as well not be human

golden meteor
#

I just know he hates Eldar for personal reasons

green loom
#

He hates all aliens like everyone else

celest dome
green loom
#

Traitors are treated almost worse than aliens

rocky gale
celest dome
green loom
#

Don't forget he's all kinds of stubborn and his personal philosophy is "if you can't save yourself you're worthless" lol

tulip brook
#

The guy set the foundation of his own religion

storm jungle
#

Eldrad literally also gets him to make it to Imperial Palace

#

AND gives him a mcguffin to make sure he does

tulip brook
#

He should be almost as zealous as Lorgar

storm jungle
#

he has a nice "save for saving my charred ass bro" moment lol

golden meteor
#

So he’s kinda cool with Eldar but no?

pine wedge
storm jungle
#

Yeah like he is but hes also literally a mass murdering pyromaniac warlord

#

so "Yesn't"

Literally the entire warhammer custodes community right now

storm jungle
green loom
#

3 million custodes fans coming out of the woodwork to say how disappointed they are that women exist

pine wedge

I've been thoroughly enjoying the meltdown

dire apex
green loom
#

"Why do you need more women? You already have sisters of battle/silence!"

#

"there's already diversity in 40k! You have, uh, jagathai khan and vulkan!"

#

(They don't read or look into anything so they're only capable of finding superficial examples)

pine wedge
#

They're so mad

green loom
#

I love that if you go to the store page all the custodes are out of stock

pine wedge
green loom
#

And you can see like a bunch of people expressing interest in buying them/posting about their new custodes purchases

queen laurel
raven prawn
#

so when are we getting female space marines?

storm jungle
#

Probably never or not anytime soon.

#

Its up in the air since Fem custodians are a pretty good middle-ground

#

and statistically speaking Custodes are just way easier to integrate women into it since theres never been a hardcore lore reason against it unlike Astartes.

green loom
#

And it was literally decided on like

#

A decade ago

As Master of Mankind was being written

fem space marines coming when 2nd chapter primarch is revealed to be femanus

arctic talon
#

This is like the vostroyan firstborn just becoming firstborn child

#

Instead of firstborn son

#

actually I’m like 99% sure

arctic talon
#

The HH books mention firstborn child from nobles as well

storm jungle
#

the only mystery part of their lore is their creation

#

which is just mumbo-jumbo and "gene-alchemy"

#

which was the stepping stone for this change

green loom

"hand-crafting from young age"

Per Firstborn Daughter

Yeah

compared to Astartes who are teens/kids

Yup.

Noble children are basically untouched from any kind of defects/fed well, so perfect material to mold from literal babies lol

TO REMOVE WARHAMMER FROM HIS NAME

LMAO

Major kill is gonna make so much money off of porn posters with custodes

But like

All they do is patrol terra

#

Then again terra is like

A shithole

storm jungle
#

Also yeah its like real life how the best troops get selected for guard duties in speical locations

#

its dumb but its tradition

arctic talon
#

They got some real action during shadow throne lol

#

And the khorne incident

pine wedge
#

And they take that assignment very seriously

Its such a wild fucking claim to make

green loom

There's some marvel comics that use Tau vehicles as generic alien props

queen laurel

#

it's an excuse for marvel to add references to other IP's and then saying "it's cannon" even though it doesn't affect the main story in any way

storm jungle

"Hey that's not how that works-"

Disney: "We can literally buy you in an hour."

I can’t believe female custodies are cannon. I thought the god emperor of mankind only sorrounded himself with buffed up oily men 😔

radiant lance

It's weird so much of our culture came from there

having marvel writers would probably make 40k higher quality

Have you seen the recent stuff?

It's been a while since I asked or talked in here

#

So I heard with the new Codex we get a Female Custodes

#

Do we know where she comes from cause I thought they couldn't "produce" more Custodes since they got beaten down in the Heresy I'm probably wrong with that but that's one thing I vaguely remember

shadow plover
#

they replenish custodians every now and then

celest dome
#

No they have been producing Custodes a long time ago

shadow plover
#

mostly from noble houses on terra

#

and apparently there were women among the original 10 000 as well

unique berry
#

Ah okay as said I got told they couldn't create any custodes anymore and sin e they aren't really my favorite or interest (Astra Militarum for the win) appreciate the answers

shadow plover

🫡

pine wedge
storm jungle
#

The lore never also outright stated its "ONLY MEN CAN BE CUSTODES"

pine wedge
#

stuff describing the selection criteria for the Custodes have never been much more than a few throwaway lines here and there so it's not a big retcon

storm jungle
#

yeah like its literally mumbo-jumbo

and "gene-alchemy"

which is just sci-fi nonsense lol

Malcador got the last laugh

but it's a minor change

thats the thing

with space marines its outright said "no women"

And then 2000 of them died

Thanks khorne

A okay was just wondering and curious about it when I read it today thx yall

Wut?!

theres even a fucking line in darktide about it

Darktide references it yeah

I want a book about it

Or a campaign book

unique berry
#

The fuck to have a book about that would be so dope from different view points

crisp heath
#

It's not a big deal, it was just Apocalypse Thursday

arctic talon
#

But still the 8 bloodthirsters + their armies had a good time on terra

#

Didn’t accomplish their goal of smashing the astronomicon

And getting into the throne room

#

But they did kill a ton of people + cause a ton of damage lol

I just want my bug boys to get on Terra

Either way the nids are having a good time rn

Eating everything in their path in pacificus lol

Well would be dope to see the Fleet Solar (I hope I didn't butcher the actual name) in action

crisp heath
#

I'm still laughing at the fact that Norn Emissaries are assassins lmao

“Assassin”

#

They’re the same class of assassin as an eversor lol

Kill literally everything + the important target

crisp heath
#

Russian Stealth

unique berry

The best stealth lol

arctic talon
#

But I’m sad they did leviathan again

#

For the color scheme

#

I get it’s iconic but also CMON

crisp heath
#

tbf they can just look at you an make your head explode so thats a good thing for an assassin to do

arctic talon
#

Eavy metal did so many new cool as shit schemes

Also this scheme

unique berry
dusk patrol
#

Its very good imo

#

Goes into the High Lords politics a lot.

#

The second book goes further.

#

Also Sisters of Silence and the Custodes and what happened on Terra when the Rift opened.

#

And the lead up.

#

Regent's Shadow, the second book, deals with the aftermath

storm jungle

#

And the Primarch's Scourge.

tomorrow the emperor could come back to life but if a custodes is female now that's where they draw the line

Do you think the Emperor coming back to life wouldn't cause drama?

i don't think it would

dusk patrol

Then you're very naive.

listen i might not have the experience to know what to believe but that doesn't make me naive

dusk patrol
#

If you think that somehow female custodes drama, which frankly speaking is pretty light and will probably die after a week, is really that big a deal compared to some other stuff which has happened.

#

People still complain about lore events from years ago.

This is very small fry "drama"

I just wish they expanded more on the Sisters of Silence instead, didn’t really care we also now have women in the Golden Banana Guard.

Like I get most people feeling like they've been bamboozled with the amount of times GW refers to Custodes as sons, brothers, etc, on top of little mention of there being explicit female custodes, but bruh

#

GW lore is just malleable as hell

rocky gale
#

40k lore is solid and never changes, that's why there are only 12 legions, the primarchs aren't the Emperors sons, they're just regular human generals, Space Marines are the size of regular humans, everyone wears power armour, both men and women are Space Marines and there's no such thing as the Horus Heresy

outer wave
#

There is no Horus Heresy in Ba Sing Se

dusk patrol
#

League of Votann is a better example.

rocky gale
#

But lore never changes

#

That's the point, doesn't matter how long ago

#

It didn't change

dusk patrol
#

Tbh I haven't seen people say it doesn't change, I'm sure some are.

#

Just that they don't like it, which I don't agreed with but its a separate issue.

#

There's a little bit of wonkiness with the Custodes change but it helps theres literally thousands of Custodes we've never seen or know of, it makes it a little weird that we never ever saw a girl custodes but overall I think how they did it was about as good as its gonna be.

outer wave
#

Maaaybe this is a bit of a hot take, but I think I'd agree with them a lil more if this was instead saying that there were disabled Custodes in lore that we havent seen (like wheelchair and all), which would be really dumb

dusk patrol
#

^

outer wave
#

Also that yes

dusk patrol
#

A disabled Custodes

#

Other example.

outer wave
#

I meant more like GW were trying to say there were disabled custodes in the form of them being in a wheel chair or something like that instead of just being in a dreadnought

dusk patrol
#

I don't get what your point is.

#

Injured custodes are either repaired or put in dreads. If they're too injured to be as active as Custodes again after being repaired, they'd become Eyes of the Emperor.

#

Idk what this has to do with some custodes being women.

arctic talon
#

the Imperium is not super accommodating when it comes to physical disabilities

#

beyond the uh

dusk patrol
outer wave
#

My point is that I'd agree more with the other side if instead of GW adding in the detail that there are women custodes, they said straight up "Hey there are disabled Custodes that use wheel chairs this entire time" or something similar when dreadnoughts exist

dusk patrol
#

But I won't,.

#

I want everyone to know I could have though.

outer wave
#

Like basically something that makes ABSOLUTELY no sense in lore

dusk patrol
#

I'd agreed that would be stupid.

#

Beyond maybe being an Eye

#

But even then

#

We know they can fix so much.

outer wave
#

They already have the available tech to fix their legs to some degree

#

Even if not completely

dusk patrol
#

Yeah my main thing is female custodes are so easy to add and they make sense within the lore, it changes nothing.

#

Except my annoyance that people won't shut up about them.

#

This goes for talking about people being upset about them too.

#

And saying cringe shit about "UwW we have dommy mommy muscle ladies now"

#

I would throw you all off a bridge if I could. It wouldn't be a long drop, but it would hurt a little bit and I would find it cathertic.

I do appreciate the irony that I am doing what I am complaining about in a roundabout way by complaining about the complainers complaining about the complainers.

Eh I think this was done pretty tastefully

The Sisters of Avelorn are the personal guardians and hand-maidens of the Kingdom of Avelorn and the Everqueen herself. [1a]
There are regions of Avelorn that the citizen levies are forbidden to enter. Some are sacred places of power, intrinsically linked with the rites of renewal by which the Everqueen are helps sustain Ulthuan and its people. ...

But I guess you know the the characters are female? But generally I think boobplate is dumb unless there’s some serious aesthetic choice that validates it

Like in league of legend where all female characters had big boba because the low graphics made it hard to differentiate that they were women

And then they kept doing after upgrading their graphical engine

And eventually stopped

GW but female custodes just undermine the story of the sisters of battle or sisters of silence

#

I'm just saying

chilly palm
#

how so?

bold wren
#

Because they're not women anymore once they get gene seed.

#

Do you know how much it changes you to something beyond human.

#

It's just how they're made that it requires someone to survive but any women custodes have to be a unit

queen laurel

It's a girl simple as that

bold wren
#

No I am just in a war setting it's not even fair

#

But gene seed changing you to something beyond human

#

Would change that

shadow plover

Custodians don't have geneseed

bold wren
#

Well they do

chilly palm
#

if they aren't women anymore would that even matter tho, since they aren't even human how would they undermine sister of battle

This is why I left to begin with when I site a source you want to say I am constantly wrong.

Custodes are made by an otherwise unexplained process called "gene-alchemy" in which infant children are handcrafted into perfect warriors. It is not said anywhere that they are implanted with geneseed

arctic talon
#

CITE A SOURCE ON CUSTODES HAVING GENESEED

#

FUCKS SAKE

queen laurel

If you can't prove what you're saying then you are lying it's simple as that

arctic talon

Because the 8e codex, the 9e codex, and the Liber custodes book in HH

all say they use gene-alchemy on a baby

I get you a source and you will still find a way to say I am wrong there is no reason arguing here. I can just leave.

#

The process of Primarch- or Emperor- derived geneseed being used to elevate adolescent boys to transhuman status was developed specifically for the Astartes, so that they could be (comparatively) mass-produced

Custodes are custom tailored by the Emperor himself is all I read.

I'm fine being corrected I only have a problem when I am insulted.

I say woefully ignorant things, and I am fine to admit that.

pine wedge
#

See? Just point Bloom towards the Custodes codexes that talk a little bit about how they're made

bold wren
#

Not even the Codex

#

Google doesn't even say geneseed.

#

There is a official site that is ran by people

#

That give the lore.

#

Also I think the Emperor would handmake Custodes when he was alive but right now it's done by the finest scientists on Terra, working in secret deep in the Imperial Palace

bold wren
#

They're explained as a more exacted version of space marines expect without gene-seed.

At least the process of how they transform into custodes.

As it isn't just gene-seed that transforms space marines only.

Do they mean "baby" as in out of the womb? or fetus

If I recall Horus did wound the Emperor

They simply take more from all the unpainted models in the world...

But didn't out right kill him

queen laurel
# bold wren Long life spans

Gene seed is currently harvested from Dead Space marines so it's not far stretched to say that they just harvest it off dead grey knights

chilly palm
#

that was a good joke all of you better have laughed

bold wren

So it's just harvested from the dead

#

queen laurel

Space marines as they grow make gene seeds inside their body

it's like the fremen returning the water from the bodies of their dead to the wells inside their sietches. sort of

Then again Chief is the weakest Spartan

He is luckiest

queen laurel

All the female Spartans are just more talented shots then chief

Chief is just a well balanced soldier not a deadeye shot

Being a Spartan 2 herself and only one of the few who survived. It was actually as messed up as space marines in halo.
