Anyone got in to Kill Team? I haven't but I think i'm going to try it next time I have a game day.
I've been watching some battle reports on youtube and it looks pretty fun, and way faster. |

Got done priming and highlighting some Terminators and Sternguard Veterans earlier. They're now ready to paint while watching my favorite 40k streamer tomorrow.

Brand new here to the 40k universe. Wife and I both bought a kill teams to practice painting on. I haven’t picked a faction yet (wife stole orks from me lol) leaning towards imperial guard/astra militarum.
I bought the hearthkyn salvager kill team. I like the squats but there seems to be a lack of units right now to choose from in the leagues of Votann faction. |

Games Workshop has now gone full woke.
BlackRock bought 2,162,045 shares of Games Worksop (6.56%) of the company. Predictably we now have female Adeptus Custodes according to the new Adeptus Custodes codex, oh yeah, and they use pronouns. What a damn shame. Warhammer Finally Goes Woke |

Lots of simps and wokies on the FB and Reddit boards, cheering it on, too.
Coomers ecstatic over the prospect of Golden Muscle Mommies. Sucks. The writing retcon is lazy. Typical Nottingham. The codex being shit is a bigger crime. They must have dropped the woke BS to cover up the garbage strats and stats. I remember in 9th, they FAQ'd the hardcover a week or so after it was released. GeeDubz is a joke. Best, JBR |

I've got enough miniatures to play the game already. I don't need to buy any more and I won't. Get fucked GW.

They say its not a retcon, its always been that way.
I'm filling out some Death Guard but I'm trying to get people to play Grimdark Future rules since WH40k rules are not all that good and I hate the I go, You go activation system. |

Best, JBR View Quote Blackrock and Vanguard own collectively 13% of GW now, that's a significant ownership interest and they're pushing their woke agenda full send. I can't stand those simps, wookies, and coomers. They are an infestation that has infested the science fiction and comic cons spheres for awhile now. I knew they'd come for Warhammer sooner or later. |

View Quote They can say what they want, but it's pretty clear that the Custodians were referred to as the sons of Emperor and male in the past. Not that GW is good about keeping their own stories straight and haven't contradicted themselves in the past, but please the Custodians having females? Plus, I don't see the need or utility here of female Custodians. They have the Sisters of Battle and female guardsmen in abundance already. Adding female Custodians and I'm sure soon Space Marines will detract from those factions. |

So, one ambiguous line that is vague as to whether or not there were female Custodes, but for that one line there dozens of lines referring to them as men.
I agree with Lutin, given the overall context provided by the Lore I think it is pretty clear that the Custodes were exclusively men until this 10th Edition Codex. Do we know when Blackrock and Vanguard purchased their shares in GW? It would be interesting to see if GW's wokeness corresponds to Blackrock and Vanguard's investment. It's sad to see GW finally rising up in popularity with the PS5 game coming out this Fall and the Amazon series coming up that perhaps the funding that allowed all to happen has at the same time infested Warhammer with the woke virus, which ultimately destroy it. |

View Quote Custodes Codex 8th Ed It is known that all Custodians begin their lives as the infant sons of the noble houses of Terra. It is a mark of incredible prestige to surrender one’s child to this most glorious of callings within the Imperium, and many notable clans amongst the Terran aristocracy have willingly given up almost entire generations of newborn sons to earn it.

That dude needs serious help. You 40k guys can shelter in BT ... but only by ignoring CGL and a fairly decent swathe of the new stuff. --------------------------- I do wonder how you guys are going to handle whatever rolls down the pike in 40K. I have been told - and it strikes me as being true - that the setting was never inteded to be really quite serious about itself (in the tongue in cheek way), and my bud(s) who were involved in it have been kvetching for years about how the new source and rule books change things, and not just game mechanics. Plus yall's buy in cost seems pretty high - either in prices paid to GW or for 3d prints otherwise. Also people using older rulesets being able to catch a game.

Apparently Vanguard and Blackrock started buying up anything gaming related in 2020. They identified that at home entertainment games were going to be a big thing and so they bought up shares in every video game and board gaming company that they could.

View Quote Yep, Blackrock and Vanguard own enough shares of GW collectively to hold all the other share holders hostage to their whims. And their whims are full on wokeness DEI girl power for the Warhammer universe. And they're purposely targeting anything Henry Cavil likes or has to do with 40k to make him wash his hands of it. My brother and I have decided to never buy anything from GW again. I'm happily going to pirate and 3D print anything of theirs I want now. |

I loved The Witcher 3 video game, maybe my favorite video game of all time, but looks like Blackrock and Vanguard invested heavily into CDPR and now the Witcher 4 narrative director is this steaming pile of crap Woke LGBTQ cultist from the looks of his social media posting lately. |

If it were followers of the Blood God it might be cool, but nope just degenerate Slaanesh worshippers. The Globalst hedge funds have sank their teeth into various gaming concerns in 2020. Everything from video game to board games to Warhammer 40K was corrupted by their money. However, with 3D printing and a fanatical fan base I predict that Warhammer's metal roots will remain even if these globalist try to bastardize it. |
