Death throes of a dying thread. Dane cook blowjoberer posting direct copies of other SA posts into this thread instead of mocking them openly in the thread they came from because it isn't the cuddly hate box echo chamber he feels comfortable in. Crack bone posting sup-par artificial memes in the hopes one will take off but instead gets ignored, resulting in him trying even harder like a toddler in a tantrum responding to being ignored by increasing volume.

RIP Death thread. The forums were at the same time too abrasive and too sensitive for you.
drat, Hamshot. There are many good points here and I am not really in disagreement.

Seriously, this thread. :cripes:

We have an extremely small amount of information released, hardly anything to even start speculating about. The released things are rule concepts, nothing is put in stone yet by GW. If that makes you put your hobby on pause, then do that...though personally I don't really see the point of coming here to brag about something like that.

You may be confused friend, I think GW and 40k is a loving garbage fit of hot fecees but lol if this is the turning point for you or something or that people are jumping on to violently defend it literally nothing. When the 40k balls start touching then maybe its time for some shitposting idk.

This is exactly like the death thread during end times haha

Jesus there have been some truly embarrassing giant posts on the last few pages about people's attachment to their plastic men and the company that's been ripping them off for decades.

Otoh the 40k fans who say AoSing 40k won't destroy it are right, there's gonna be a number of people posting ATM whose armies will be insultingly shitcanned like all the fantasy ones and they'll do what the ham fans did I.e. look at the thousands of quid invested in "the hobby" they have and decide hmm maybe I'll just buy those Stormfire Ultrafighters and the new Guilliman faction box, he looks pretty strong at least!

Tbf the only people coming in here to brag seem to be like a dozen or so super fans who all turned up at once to write thousand word essays comparing Warhammer to poetry.

I don't play 40k because people get mad at me when I put down non-GW models so I say whatever and go and play a dozen other games with those same figures and no one cares. 40k fans are weird.

I'm reasonably young and just beginning to have lots of disposable income so I'm the target demo and even I know 40k isn't worth getting into anymore.

Prices aside, formations, flyers and super heavies don't look like anything I can be bothered to deal with. Although I suppose funilly enough buying 3 of those big knight robits is probably the cheapest way to build an army.
Also you can't guarantee anything other than the newest stuff won't get shitcanned when all the tyranids and necrons die offscreen or whatever.

New thread title is great.

This must be the first time GW have ever discounted their products to such an extent., right? or is Black Library handled seperately?

It is really weird to want a moratorium on long, thought out posts. We can all get really passionate about Games Workshop (both for and against, granted) so sometimes we can't help but let our passion for the Hobby free.

Pretty sure you have to say something to be refuted if you want someone to write a counterpoint?
