moths posted:It was dumb from a lore perspective as well. The men of the Grey Knights could use the purity of the Sisters' blood better than they could. S.J. posted:The entire thing was written like the Grey Knights were murdering innocent virgins to bathe in their blood in order to protect themselves from demons and it was extremely gross and weird in-universe and meta textually Agreed on both counts, I'm just partial to the Imperium being extremely hosed up and representing hopeless fanaticism and patriarchy.

Yeah I'm torn on the issue because on one hand I can separate fiction from reality in the same way that I enjoy horror movies, but it's gross to think that disgusting people are getting kicks from genuinely aligning with the worst aspects of it. It just so happens that, like horror, I find the most hosed up aspects to be fascinating parts of the setting.

I've always thought it was a huge mistake to try to humanize chaos followers and make them into tragically misguided figures, rather than purely evil and insane people twisted by forces beyond their control.

Specifically I feel like there's less of a focus on the corrupting influence of chaos than there should be. Like chaos marines are often talked about like they wanted to be powerful in a certain way and took a deal with chaos that made them more powerful in that way, like it was a fairly rational choice to them because of how hosed up they were in the first place. I think it works better when it's plain that despite how hosed up they were to begin with, they never would have taken this deal were they not made to want it after being driven insane by chaos.

Is there a good way to get models off their base so I can rebase them? Mine are really glued on there with Tamiya and I tried working an x-acto knife under their soles but I don't think I can do it without mangling them.

Legendary Ptarmigan posted:If you don't mind destroying the old base you can always use snips to just cut through the old base around where the models feet are. I had some old Assault on Black Reach Terminators I've been working on repurposing for 30k where I did that. You can put the models in the freezer (as long as the were originally assembled with some variety of super glue instead of plastic glue) to make the old bonds more brittle as well. Anything I can do to get the glued on portion of the base under their feet off or do they just have lifts at that point?

RangerScum posted:Get a set of these, they are really useful and I've used them to cleanly separate plastic models from bases, clean up resin models, the works. If you need to cut through models / bases / whatever and can't use your snippers these things are incredible. Done, thanks!

I got most of the base layers done on my canoness. I wanted to show off how a different head, arms, and facing can change the canoness from the combat patrol box, who I always thought was a bit stiff.

Is there any reason to play an obscure successor chapter like Flesh Tearers or a Dark Angels successor? Seems like there's lots of cool fluff opportunities and the ability to choose a better paint scheme, but are they just using their chapters rules without access to the special characters or what?

I'm p sure 30k only exists because they think there are lots of people mad about primaris and wanted to have an old school short marines game for them, so the pose choices probably reflect that mentality.

Safety Factor posted:30k's been an official game since like 2012. It predates the primaris range by a lot. It still exists because it's popular; it got a big boost back in 7th edition with two plastic box sets that really helped get more people into the game. The big plastic push starting with the launch of 2.0 has been great too. There is definitely a grog element to it though, I'm not going to deny that. I'm one of them. Oh huh, I stand corrected!

Does anyone know what the guy in the lower left is called? I'd love to get my hands on one and convert it into a preacher or missionary. I know they're from one of the redemptionist sets in the 90s but I can never find that exact one for sale.

AndyElusive posted:That post raging about the Guard being a boring faction completely ignores all the amazing characterful troops they have access too. I think that post was less about the Guard not having cool units and more that the lore makes it seem like they are disposable cannon fodder thrown by the trillions into trenches to fight gods, which is awesome but not really a reflection of the reality on the tabletop.
