Games Workshop broke before the fans did.

[Sleazy]

Just removed the game from my wishlist. They can keep their non existent woke fans. I wish the worst of luck to GW

It's even "smarter" given that 3d printing is quite cheap now, to the point that printing GW proxies is a tenth of the cost of buying their kits. A lot of the models are also better than what GE produces.

The main thing is that 3d printing typically requires its own space and is also an additional full hobby atop that

If you can handle the additional hobby load and need for a ventilated workspace then yeah it's absolutely worth it

You can also get someone from Etsy to print for you. That way, it would be no different from normal scale modelling and still a bit cheaper than 40k kits.

That's how ludicrous their prices are, you can get someone on another continent to print you a mini, ship it to you and its still cheaper than buying a GW kit.

Yeah that bit is bonkers. I've done it myself a few times but found it to be of lower quality than I'm used to
Hell, two of my knights are printed

As much as I enjoy GW myself, go ham on third party if you want, especially for bits. And go for a printer if you can handle the space/extra hobby load. Always support small businesses over big businesses if ya can. I think the only reason I still buy from GW is simply because I like supporting my FLGS. That and I genuinely enjoy the building aspect, prints don't seem to have that all too often when ordered

Fair enough.

yeah. same here. The changes that GW made are not on them. But recruiting a spiteful activist writer absolutely is.

agree just because of that racist writer alone this game would be very sus, now with GW bending the knee its all sounds like a typical bait and switch... they will avoid to show any wokeness in the trailers, because they know how majority of people hates it.

lol trust me bro, you truly don't exist, your a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a % of a fraction of people rofl, you can gladly go down with the ship you so happily are trying to sink, we'll survive, you won't.

You've been telling yourself we won't survive for ages now and we're still here. Cope.

Tourist here. My distaste for this retconning is more about the overarching, real world stalinesque tactic of erasing & overwrite an established work in order to push the wokeness. There are established female characters in the series, & they could be expanded & further elaborated within the given universe. But that universe is being altered specifically because it is not woke & because it enbraces the cardinal sin of antiwoke sins, male masculinity (aka "toxicity"). No mention of female custodes nor female SMs throughout the last 9 editions, & then suddenly, it-was-always-that-way-since-day-1 retcon. I didn't even hear about this revelation when the contemporary 10th was initially released, but I'm obviously not the only one who missed that memo, either.

Taking a page from Stalin's propaganda playbook, the strategy is to assimilate & rewrite the established story canon to put it in line with the agenda. Simply offering up woke ideas/story lines to compete in a free idea marketplace is a nonstarter because more than likely, those ideas can’t compete, as is probably well understood. Hence the forced retcon, hate-bait accusations, mod banning, etc.

The signature strategy with such agendas always involves forcing the alternate idea rather than having it compete openly against what is established.

I mean, the Rogal Dorn battletank was introduced in the exact same way as women in the Custodes. It's just always there. Both have no reason as to why it couldn't happen in lore, but they just showed up and were always there. Though I do understand disliking the way they were introduced. I personally don't mind it all that much, but thats because I just kinda go with the flow myself

From what I've seen, people would rather it have been done during like, the Age of Strife or somethin. Say that to bolster their numbers they went "awe ♥♥♥♥ it. Lets just do it"

rogal dorn tank was about selling new miniatures and giving guard new models not about woke gender box checking and pandering to leftie clowns, blackrock and amazon... of course you as always cant tell the difference (also there are never going to be models for customa´ams anyway, this was done purely as a part of deal with amazon sewer).

So the complaint isn't actually about lore then, its just believing there's some evil 3rd party that forced it in?

Are you seriously suggesting that this isn't what's happening in the entertainment industry? There is literally a video where the scumbag in charge of Blackrock comes out and says that they are and I quote: "forcing behaviours".

and? George Lucas said that disney is doing great with star wars---- lmfao... of course comediants and artists needs to act woke to keep their job (stay relevant in the industry run by left).... not to mention ADB wrote tons of apolitical great w40k novels but always was kinda woke... now he can get all that back clapping and make himself looks good... hardly change anything about the topic.

these are the people who openly pushed woke propaganda into the setting and one of these two clowns say that its cool to have drag shows in front of the kids... just so you know what ilk they are before you try to explain them something....
