Just be careful around this thread. Last time I suggested that I got jumped on (and given this avatar for some reason).

Though I'm sure there are some good heads out there. I wish Victoria Lamb made a kit... most of her work is in Imperial Guard scale, so might look a little small on space marine bodies.

Quoting this just to make sure you can’t backpedal because holy poo poo is this a gross thing to complain about when at this very moment the US is separating children from their parents and putting both groups into what can only be called concentration camps.

They’re some impressive sculpts to be sure, but I’m not sure they work as a Sisters of Battle analogue. They don’t seem to have many actual guns, for one thing, let alone flamers or meltas. They look more like Sisters of Silence with that armor.

If you are considering spreading the violence from Nazis to "similar to Nazis"; why not look at the conservatives in the UK whose policies on benefit sanctions are eugenics-lite. Their policies have the natural consequence of causing the deaths of and degrade the quality of life for many of the most vulnerable in British society.

Still, violence is not the answer unless it flows from the state and follows due process.

It's not a good solution, but likening them to concentration camps is jumping the shark. At least call it what it is: jailing I don't agree with. Unless you can post some info that says the living conditions of these people are subhuman or they are being detained for no reason (even if you don't agree with being arrested for illegal entry, doesn't mean it isn't a reason).
Ironically the fact that children are separated from their children isn't even a Trump thing. It's just he is enforcing it with zero tolerance, meaning that parents are being prosecuted for crimes. This unfortunately was legislated to mean separation of child and parent.

https://www.vox.com/2018/6/21/17488458/obama-immigration-policy-family-separation-border

So, contact your local representatives and put pressure on judges to allow families to stay together during prosecution. Make sure they are following the detain times, or pressure people to change them. Even if you don't agree with the deportation, burying your head in the sand to the laws already on the book and saying "my nazis" isn't going to change anything. This was only a matter of time, and there were plenty of times where is could have been changed. Be active in your government, or risk being reactive.

At least get the newspapers to stop taking pictures of kids that aren't even being detained / separated and making them poster-children of this movement. There are at least two cases of this, the most infamous being the Times cover. No wonder people don't trust the media.

Yeah, this.

Also, putting small children in jail and not allowing them to see their parents or be physically comforted at all (i.e. staff can't even hug a crying child who doesn't understand where their parents are and is understandably distressed) is most definitely subhuman conditions, you loving monster.

I dunno about that. Some of the best models I've seen where designed / sculpted by the opposite gender. Granted, I think GW design team has had the same players in it for a long time. I doubt anyone would complain about new blood helping in either the rules or models.

Some of those models would work beautifully in Kill Team. And others are aimed at a particular subset of gamers who are the worst party of the hobby (see above).

Naw, I specifically said I didn't want to see Dr Thunder-esque models. With the thickness that space marine armour is in, plus looking at references to real world armor, boob plate is kinda ridiculous. The trick at miniatures scale is to make a woman look like a woman without relying on emphasizing certain "areas".
I kind of like it for Sister of Battle because it isn't used in a titillating way and makes them distinct from Space Marines. The Raging Heroes minis obviously use it in a different way...
