To all the females complaining. Warhammer Lore and female representation.

[Jeronan]

As a big fan of Warhammer. Especially the Lore, I can understand some of the frustrations.

Warhammer has plenty of female representation in the Lore and there are very strong female characters represented in the books. All the way up to the highest ranks on Terra to Fleet captains and Commodores in the Imperial Navy. Some are downright bad-ass written in many of the books!

Space Marines however, are a male only faction in the Lore. Due to the Primarchs geneseed and how its incompatible with woman and the vast majority of young boys undergoing the trials and transition to Space Marine die. Only a very small percentage survive the ordeal.

But! There are plenty bad-ass female factions in the Warhammer Universe. Sisters of Silence are downright insane and fight in tandem along the Adeptus Custodes.
Some of my all-time favorite books on Black Library is about them. "Watchers of the Throne" book series. Currently two volumes. The Emperor's Legion and The Regent's Shadow.

Then you have the "Vaults of Terra" book series, also by Chris Wraight, that has some strong female characters in them as well ( Inquisition ).

Then! The next best thing to Space Marines, are the Sisters of Battle (Adepta Sororitas). They pretty much wear the same type of Power Armor as the Space marines and are a totally bad-ass faction!
They made one of my all-time favorite VR games about them, called Sister of Battle. It's absolutely an amazing game!


Morale of the story! The devs of Space Marine 2 need to follow the rules of the IP and the Lore of the Warhammer Universe.
It's completely pointless spamming demands for female Space Marines in this discussion forum, since the Developers hands are tied to the IP and Lore agreement they signed with Games Workshop.

If you feel you are misrepresented in Warhammer as a woman / female gamer, LGBTQ+, etc. Then write a personal letter to Games Workshop and let your voice heard at the right place.

Again, spamming these discussion forums with Female Space Marine and LGBTQ+ representation demands have ZERO effect and only cause anger and backlash here on the forums. Again. The devs cannot help you, as their hands are tied!
Redirect your demands to the right channels at Games Workshop.

Peace out! Try enjoy the game for what it is.

Genuinely, I don't think many people are actually THIS invested in female space marines. It's all just trolling and rage baiting, they're creating this false narrative that literally everyone wants female space marines so you and others can just be mad about it.

Girls are icky and have cuddies, all girls that agree are okay (i'm not going to explain the satire behind it so have a brain).

Im not farming. I don't care about Steam points. I am sitting on thousands from just playing games and having friends. No need to farm. Don't be an ass.

Unless there have been some changes in the past 8 years that I'm unaware of, the Sisters of Battle often die horrible and ♥♥♥♥♥♥ deaths in written works that are inexcusable relative to their training and equipment.

Rather than "female Space Marines", I think it'd be best to improve upon the pre-existing female representation in 40K and ideally, I think doing so could potentially allow the Space Marines to share the spotlight with otherwise unpopular subfactions of the Imperium.

I'm still of the mindset that the best possible way to go about improving female representation of 40K would be to get PlatinumGames to do what they do best but with the Adepta Sororitas. Such a game would also be a good entry point for Japanese gamers to get into Warhammer 40,000, since the lead character for a licensed game from the NieR Automata studio would be "sexy white haired chick with an armored corset and chainsaw sword"

Ehmm if you really read as many Black Library books as I have (including the entire Horus Heresy series), then you know that everyone in the Warhammer Universe dies horribly lol.
Including Space Marines, Custodes, Sisters of Battle, Sister of Silence, etc.

Just being born in the Warhammer Universe is just a cruel fate. It's called the Grim Dark Future for a reason.

Everyone dies horribly :P This is not a nice place, there's some truly wrong ♥♥♥♥ in alot of the books that happen to people. And a sisters game would be amazing, cause sisters are one of the best factions

There is an awesome Sisters game, though only VR at the moment. It's called Sister of Battle. It's an amazing game.
