Fimir. will they be added or is it a big No-No?

[Daryl]

Will Fimir units be added or avoided?
due to they being grotesque chaos daemon-ish units whose lore and existence is due to the kidnapping of fertile human women and... reproduce from there.
will it be bad to add such units with such lores?
or is that kind of thing non-existant in any part of Wars?

[Reverend Belial]

Nope. Not only are Fimir relegated to the most desolate swams of the Old World in-lore (and are the least relevant race on the planet), but they're also WAY too Grimdark to even be acceptable to mention by any company that doesn't want to get burned down by angry SJWs.

Basicaly the same thing. No one in his own sane mind will want to see that.

[Spinz]

I also doubt that they will get added in. At most they couldn't be more than a negative growth modifier imo

That's... Actually a pretty fitting comparison. Fimir even kinda look like those trolls.

Not a chance, although Forgeworld has a line of them selling now, and they are in the AOS app as well, so they have made something of a minor comeback recently. Zoats on the other hand..

so Grimdark realism isnt acceptable in War games
when such things does happen in real life, all over the globe in all parts of history?
i think SJWs just cant accept reality and want everything related to war to be puppies, unicorns, rainbows and chocolate waterfall

I saw 1-2 episodes of the new BERSERK remake anime
and i stopped
it skipped so much grimdark early chapters
and it essentially PG13-ed the current saga

People, Americans in particular, tend to view rape as being the absolutely worst crime imaginable (barring child rape obviously, but even then that still counts) and so try to kind of push it aside whenever possible.

but.. why should anyone concern themselves over the opinions made in the US
by people who are in the middle and upper-class society that got nothing better to do but complain about anyhting and everything
I mean it sucks that markets are considering their opinions more than the ACTUAL GAMERS AND CONSUMERS.

I mean its exactly how Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleyball 3 was announced to not be released in Western markets especially in the US whereas in asian and south east asian countries its widely available and NOT region-blocked.

and how the new BERSERK MUSOU (BERSERK Dynasty Warrior's game by KoeiTecmo) received alot of complaints aswell particularly with Casca being groped by Femtu. and you hear people commenting and making remarks "I AM A HARDCORE BERSERK FAN FOR AAAGES BUT THIS PERPETUATES RAPE CULTURE! AND WHERE DOES IT EVER APPEAR IN THE SHOW/COMIC? THIS IS ALL JUST DISTASTEFUL" (seriously, some people actually use that as an argument despite those kinds of violence were all over the place in BERSERK manga)

i cant see them adding them at all. not only are they an irrelevant race that never really had their own models or rules for tabletop, they havnt been mentioned in lore for many years. not to mention that they live in the deepest swamps and only really venture out of them to raid and...procure women. its a very very grimdark part of warhammer fantasy and i dont think they should be included.

[Walkerk19]

Ooh I'm gonna ask about this Fimir on the lore thread

what of the Zoats?

[crimsonsun]

Actually they appeared in Tamurkhan and again in storm of magic, but they are very much Chaos based now rather than making pacts with any aeytheric entities.

Wait, they were in Tamurkhan? I missed that part entirely.

[crimsonsun]

Only as a guest appearence I might be thinking of Arcane monsters though lol. They were def in Storm of Magic which is proper mainstream unlike anything forge world based.
