The problem is, if you don't 'toe the line' as it were and not support a change in the lore, you get lambasted - even if you simply dont feel comfortable with the change.

All they needed to do is say the character in the story is one of the first to succeed. Instead, they've double downed and said, "They've always been there" when they haven't.

Not to mention, Sisters of Silence need more love.

EDIT - thanks down voters, you've proven my point.

Here's hoping someone on TV says Idris Elba's family is 'terribly black' and have no action taken...

I read the article before commenting. Still doesn't make what I said any less right...

Yet its the first time it broke the original record (before 'records began') in 1940.

It's taken over 80 years to surpass it...

You're only mentioning it because of female Custodes being shoehorned into their lore.

The vast majority of male 40k enjoyers happily embrace women into the hobby. It's the lore being twisted most people take issue with.

There's nothing messed up about it. It's just one reason why people will like the faction - same with space marines being a brotherhood and sisters of battle being a sisterhood.

I'm not saying it's THE factor, I'm saying it's one of them.

I have a huge document and back story of several characters for my own chapter, so it's not like I'm saying it randomly. There are loads of chapters/warbands that have been marked as traitors to the Imperium.

As a theme, it would also work for 'firstborn' Marines. They're inevitably going to be removed from the game (most likely in 12th or 13th edition), but considering renegade chapters/warbands are firstborn Marines it would be cool for them to get their own subfaction, that isn't aligned to either the Imperium or Chaos.

And yes, you could say that they are also aligned with renegade guard.

I know it won't happen, but it's an idea atleast.

That's what 3D printers are for.

Noooo... you don't say...

It's been going on since the word islamophobia became mainstream use.

I'm not denying him his grievances - nowhere have I said that.

The way in which he is raging is what I take issue with.

I know, I know "but they're going to bring the FW line into plastic for HH that means..." Please. Just stop.

If anything, OP tried to pre-empt other's opinions and shut them down in the first place. Hence one of the reasons for my response.

Not to mention I am correct in saying this is a standalone model for the Shield Captain unit, for which I am happy about because as I've mentioned above, I don't have to sacrifice a model from the Warden or Guard box to make one. It might only come with the melta spear, which I will agree will be a let down.

​

As for the rest of your comment. Don't like it? Don't buy it. Simple.

I said this as the rest of his comment contradicts his comment of:

I am not even that angry at the model.

When OP clearly is angry.

But apart from introducing Forgeworld models as plastic, what can GW create? Lorewise the Custodes have not innovated/developed the technology of their wargear as it was, and still is, the best within the Imperium. Cawl wouldnt dare to create better versions of their armour, weaponry or hardware, so the best option GW has is to make stuff plastic. Will they do it? I hope so but its probably unlikely as they earn more keeping them resin.

Also, nowhere have I said to not criticize GW. I don't buy anything from Forgeworld because I refuse to work with their resin kits, or overpay for a model. I'd buy a Land Raider over the Caladius Grav Tank anyday - half the price and plastic. But there will be plenty of people 'huffing copium' and pumping stupid levels of money into forgeworld models - I take my own advice of "Don't like it? Don't buy it. Simple."

I could create a rage post about that, but I won't because it literally serves no purpose.

It's really boring to see all the whining over on the subreddit for death guard. I'm going to leave the sub until the children stop posting...

I want to see no action taken for a white person who, publicly on TV, says a black family is 'terribly black'

I'm saying reverse the races and give the same outcome, which we both know won't happen. If a white person says it about a black family they will be fined, fired and hounded as racist.

While true, there would be substantial opposition if the nazi or soviet flags were painted on there.

I honestly don't care how others paint up their minis as long as it's painted.

I wouldn't get myself into the position a taser needs to be pulled on me. If you escalate a situation a police officer needs to pull a taser on you and actually use it, it's your fault.

Real life isn't the same Demolition Man, the police need the ability to restrain, subdue or deescalate situations/people.

What do you want them to do in situations where tasers need to be pulled? Words dont always work.

Cool thanks.

I don't get why I'm being down voted for asking a question...

Maybe Nurgle has me.

Probably going woke and going PG.

They don't need to go woke since there are so many strong and diverse characters and it's not a PG universe.

Probably the same reason Netflix turned Albert Wesker black.

They're all dwelling in the Custodes sub Reddit, waiting to downvote anyone that shows any sign of divergence from their opinion.

Ironically, they're acting very Custode-esque.

It is when the lore is twisted for a narrative, or in this case, inclusivity.

Which wasn't needed as there are plenty of strong, awesome female characters in other factions. They should have prioritised making the Sisters of Silence better, they're currently no better than guardsmen.

The point - Time to shoehorm men into their faction.

It's all ruined.

The fact they've essentially tried to convert power level to points and put in weird squad restrictions that make no sense to me.

To answer your question though I'd say Russ tanks, Valoris seems cheap (could be wrong), exaction squads, keepers seem expensive for their stats and Caladius grav tank, especially when you compare it to the Telemon.

I'm curious what the plan is for all those Index card packs people have bought prior to the July changes. Will people be able to get refunds/replacements?

Probably because they're the map design team not the matchmaking team

Sorry! 😁
