They do as they have been publishing unique Eldar content for decades. I have no idea what they are thinking unless they just want to re brand the entire universe.

Which makes no sense with such a massive IP. You don't just piss away years of brand recognition for no good reason. Nobody does this because it's bad and dumb.

DoW fan: hey guys, I want to start playing collecting tabletop, Sisters of Battle are my favourite!

GW nerd: actually they don't exist anyone *cringes*

DoW fan: Oh. Well guess I'll go play Infinity.

So is this just further confirmation that Eldar are getting the elf treatment with everyone joining up to be friends? Will it follow the same path where it turns out the Dark Eldar had the right idea all along?

BULBASAUR posted:

Yep. This is actually real. As in, the image is a photoshop, but this is still what just happened:



Imperial Knight trench runs are in baby!

Isn't that more because no one actually plays Eldar though?

I have a staff member who got into painting and playing 40K by her husband and she has a cool looking eldar army that is like harlequins or something I haven't played since 5th that she enjoys stomping smelly warhams who don't think women can play. Anyway, I don't know how I should or even have the heart to break the coming Sigmaring of her game. Maybe I'll just show some pics of Infinity figs.

Gurren Lagann is from the "super robot" branch of the mecha genre, and owes more to stuff like Getter Robo or Mazinkaiser than Gundam

I thought the lore was that a bunch of Native American shamans gave up their souls to combine them into one super-being that was the Emperor

Ashcans posted:

^^^ IIRC, the Emperor is supposed to be around from the dawn of civilization, because the threat of the warp emerged when people stopped basically living as nomadic hunter/gatherers and started getting time to think up inventive ways to gently caress stuff/murder people/scheme, so his arrival is basically at the dawn of 'history'.

Making the Primarchs big monster dudes is also kind of lame because I thought narratively that was the point of the ones that turned to Chaos and became Daemon Princes. Daemon Magnus is a huge fuckoff dude, but it's because he explicitly abandoned his humanity to pursue his own aggrandizement and it's reflected literally in his enormous, monstrous form. Whereas the Primarchs that didn't turn and remained loyal to humanity retained their essentially human stature. I also thought that was the point of the loyal primarchs being dead/lost, because choosing humanity also meant accepting mortal limits and, ultimately, to die as a man. The primarchs who turn may gain immortality, but it came at the price of their own identity, so they remain in the story but only as puppets and tools of the Chaos powers, not as free individuals. It was also what made Abaddon remotely interesting, because he was someone with the power and stature to have taken that deal, but he refused it because he wanted to retain his independence to pursue his own goals.

But I guess now the primarchs are all back and huge rad dudes and that's supposed to be awesome because we can mash them against the chaos ones in the middle of the board.
