Springfield Fatts posted:Didn't they do this with the fantasy space marines in Sigmar? I don't play it but half the pictures I see of the storm guys are women. Did the fantasy players lose their poo poo over that for -reasons-? They did do that with the Sigmar guys, but nobody gives a poo poo about AoS lore. moths posted:Space Marines being exclusively male makes sense in 30k, a setting where toxic masculinity burns down the universe. Seriously. The entire Heresy could have been averted with a conversation between Horus and E discussing their feelings like adults, but they're both too manly man men to. Empy has canonically presented as male, female, and non-binary over the years as of The End & The Death Part II, even if Heresy-timeline Empy is male. It's more like a Dr Manhattan "once you experience everything all at once for millenia, no one individual matters any more" thing than toxic masculinity. Horus was a tool, not a son.

Also like, hyperbole dude, by all means anger the chuds, but they won't stop playing the game that foundationally celebrates fascism. I legit think 40k is a lost cause.

And every one of those reprobates I've met in historicals has been a 40k player as well (also bolt action). How about we kick them out entirely instead of weird factionalism over what game they're playing.

The game about violent military enforced racial purity by an orthodox church backed mythologized dictator seems a really stupid place to take a stand against people that like those things, just unironically. There may have been a point in the past where the satire was sharp and explicit enough, but we're way past that point and I think it's unsalvagable without something far more drastic than that In This House yard sign they made. I'd love to see GW go full Battletech, but until then, I really do think my modest proposal of walling them off and going to play better games is the more viable solution.

Bigots aren't a constant quantity that you can just cordon off to a single space and be done with them. Bigoted behavior and attitudes can proliferate or be combatted, and if you designate an area as the "bigot zone" then it will just function as a breeding ground for bigotry and you will have a greater problem down the line.

I don't really care about the 40k setting one way or another, but it feels like the whole Primaris thing proves GW could do a big change up with regards to space marines out of no where if they really wanted to. Like hey it turns out someone was out in hinterspace palpatine-stardestroyering up a batch of Primaris Alpha space marines who are even bigger and badder than Primaris. Also, they're all ladies

I don't like the idea of men riding horses. It's dangerous to the gonads and also effeminate. edit: 1000lb of surging muscle between the legs? Really fantasy writers, you think we don't see through you? edit 2: you know the scene in "Generations" where Captains Picard and Kirk are riding around on horses? Both wearing panty hose. look it up. Really makes you think.

Also that video required the lady to draw the bow in the worst way I have ever seen. She had to be intentionally trying to get her breast in the way. When you draw a bow, the draw fingers should be near your FACE, not at the level of your nipples. There are a couple exceptions (Japanese archery is just weird) but unless you are using a longbow or massively overdrawing your bow, even a well endowed lady wouldn't be risking her nipples to the bow string if she has the slightest idea of how to use it.

it would be extremely rare for a woman to be, say, an English longbowman because of a) historical sexism. and b) the 13th-century English Archery Law that required every man between 15 and 60 to have a longbow + arrows, and to practice archery on Sundays and holidays. but they're 6mm plastic dolls, if you want women archers then have women archers. the only people that are going to notice and complain probably aren't worth playing against.
