I suppose there's a comparison to be made between the government and (bad) games companies. Bloated rules, hidden FAQs, conflicted answers to questions from employees that aren't on the same page about anything, every couple of years there's an edition change that everyone is excited about but ends up disappointing... Anyway I dont like that new dread, was hoping for something less boxy and more Contemptor-ish. Curious to see the sprues. Edit, Attn: Moola:

Looking at the outrage on twitter about the new Dr Who being a woman, I'd be curious to see the reaction if they added female IG or marines to 40K and the sperging that would ensue. That and to see how bad they would be on a scale of Doc Thunder to Victoria Lamb

They should just buy out the Statuesque guy and include a bundle of lady heads in every Marine box imo. God the responce to lady Who has been magical, so many impotent nerds getting hecka mad.

In the fluff or on the tabletop? Haven't played 40k before and the only things I had seen for IG were third party - some good (lamb) some bad (cheesecake comissars)

Both, technically. There's been a few female models over the years, and you can always put SoB heads on IG bodies and do other conversions. In the fluff Commissar Cain led a co-ed regiment with a female colonel.

Over thousands of pages of fluff and a thousand sculpts across 30 years, female IG are mentioned about a dozen times and have maybe 5 official models. Nerds declare that this is enough representation and that if you really think you need more women on the table than that, you're free to chop up the most expensive standard troops in the game and make your own for one of the largest horde armies in the rules.

Oh it's definitely not enough, I was just saying that they do technically exist.

So what the hell happened to the ork aesthetic? I made the mistake of doing some work on my old Gorkamorka stuff and so I've been looking at the new orks and it's loving hideous. Everything has been cranked up to 11 and covered in ten million tiny bits and doodads. I was most interested in getting some bikes, but they're worse than the Gorkamorka bike and that's not available anymore. I've seen one on eBay for $55, gently caress.

Space Marine had a woman as the head of the IG forces iirc. Space Marine was a good game and I am sad they didn't get the trilogy they wanted to go for

I like the look of the orks themselves, but yeah, gently caress the half dozen belts on the average boy. And I agree about bikes. I have eight or so I've been worried about painting due to the complexity of their gubbins.

The whole plan is to start introducing a set of rules that aren't 100% arse (8th edition). Release codexes for all the armies at once in a "get by" format then rapidly follow up with full codexes for every army. Release "cheap" get started sets of monopose models. And perhaps most interestingly, take part in this exciting new thing called social media, and listen to what the community has to say.

They're still 95% arse though, and the bigly marines are replacing the old marines in development and long term production, encouraging people to rebuy the same army over again through whaledom or social anxiety.

Maybe. But compared to 7th ed. they are a big improvement. Bigly marines are just this years model. Very few people don't like them. They look nice. As always they are way too expensive, but if you don't just hate the look of Space Marines, they are really nice.

Doesn't really matter whether you think they're nice or not, the point is that there won't be any new development for the old marines anymore - even though they'll still keep selling the old marines for quite some time, all future new marine releases are going to be bigly soldiers and their bigly vehicles. And, as a terrible hobby full of terrible people, there are going to be whales leaning on and poo poo talking players who keep bringing regular marines to events and tournaments 3, 5 years from now.

Hm, this sounds exactly like the plan from way back in 3rd edition, but I wasn't around for that. Didn't they have the internet campaign (and 2+ people per store) back then?

I guess. I play orks, so I don't much care. Also LOL if you play with anyone but friends/cool bros, and hopefully at someone's house (with beer).
