I don't see the problem here. Space marines have decades of lore saying no girls allowed (and even then you can stretch it for some guys without problem, Cursed Founding for instance), but Custodes lore is much newer and has more irritating retcons besides, like the whole paintscheme fiasco

YESSSSSS. UPFRONT CONFIRMATION

Ah, the Custodes superiority continues

EREBUS is now the most unredeemable peice of feculant matter that has ever existed and I cannot WAIT for kharn to hunt him down and tear both of the black stumps of his heart out through his throat...

Counter point: he killed people I didn't like, so I'm happy :)

This is what the creators said.

Looks fantastic, might have to replicate it if I get my hands on the starstrider assassin for a reasonable cost.

Alena, assassin in the service of Rogue Trader Captain Tarriel Eleonora Corvinius, doggedly loyal to her through thick and thin.

I've had this one cooking for a while now. Finished it at the tail end of last month, but since it was meant as a Holiday present for a friend I obviously had to keep it under wraps. But now they've opened it I can finally show it off. It's their character from a Wrath & Glory campaign we played in last year.

This is to date my best conversion I've done. Despite being surprisingly simple to do. The most stand out bit is the head, which is a Daemonette with the mouth (and hair) removed. The body is the assassin from the Elucidian starstriders team, the braid is from Dark Eldar Wyches and the extra dagger is from the Escher box.

The demo charge is also homebuilt with some plasticard tubes, greenstuff, sewing thread and some random gubbins I had left over in my boxes.

the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore

who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”

at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it

pour one out for all those fic readers who found one author who wrote one really good fic for their fandom then clicked on their profile to find they wrote exactly one fic for that fandom and the rest for, like, csi or something

the emperor is the worst. after 30,000 years of all these lifetimes, as the apostle matthew, as all these famous people hes still obsessed with his 20 year stint as Alexander the great. Names his fucking flagship after his horse, calls his guards the companions, absolute dickhead of a man

I dunno if I can explain this without sounding like a killjoy, but something about the "Humans are the space orcs" style of post just...irritates me. I dunno, it might just be the writer in me finding them incredibly dull and self congratulatory.

Like, is your imagination so limited that you have to not only make humans indescribably special in the galaxy, but also make every other alien race so dull that they're terrified of us?

how frightening, the scanner doesn't work

Wow. That’s a lot of, what can we call it? Siege porn. Warp shenanigans?

Like I guess it’s needed but so far, out of 300 pages, only 50 is stuff actually happening (less than half of that is actually the gang getting anywhere in the vengeful spirit)

scrunching my face real hard rn

Good catch, you can do some pretty great Salamanders with these. If you've got MK4-6 plastic bits, and MK7 if you're willing to modify them a bit, you can do a small army of post-Isstvan MK5 veterans with that box as a base.

BAM you know how hard it was to get one of these?

I feel GW under sells the importance of naval conflict in 40k.

Planetary invasions can be stopped in space due to climatic navel battles, worlds saved or ended due to dulling space ships, but GW rather focus on ground battles.

It is a largely untapped market, people still play TT Battle Fleet Gothic to this day with 3D printed fleets.
