In my hobby shop, I've come across two female players. Orcs and space wolves, respectively. And they love their army/faction. I know of one Sisters of Battle player. He's a mid 40's dude who loves the Catholic esthetic.

Same, met a lady, she was cool as hell and a Vlka Fenryka player and I a Thousand Sons player..... we had fun being rivals.
I think GW as a whole thinks that video games,tv/movies and blackrock-vanguard will be what makes them money and not the hobby. They are being lied to and are lying to themselves
That might be how the leadership is sold on it, but believe me the writers are 100% for this agenda regardless of its financial impact. Same for the PR and HR departments.
@@InDeathWeLovefrom what I've seen with all these companies and having to deal with HR reps and community managers in general, and seeing some of what makes it to a CEOs desk. The companies are being blatantly lied to and kept disconnected from the fans and from their fellow staff, these Marxist activists then tell the company "this is what the world wants" and they use the carrot-stick approach threatening lawsuits, government investigations and various SA accusations on one side while the promise of better ESG scores on the other. This is also why with ESG companies that actively pollute rivers and have unfiltered smoke stacks have higher ESG scores than companies that actively produce near zero emissions. Because it's all about compliance rather than actual action. And the CEOs have to cope and lie to themselves in order to come to terms with what these people are doing to the longevity of their company and all the people they're going to put out of the job.
@@InDeathWeLovecan you explain why you think the writers are all for it? Not asking in a way to start an argument just curious on your logic/info you may know that I don’t
I believe that it is because of the Amazon woke agenda in tandem with the woke-garbage at GW, and the ones who believe that this show is their tickets to mainstream glory. Amazon have surely written a contract about forced DEI must be in everything that gets produced just like Hollywood and the Oscar's did some years ago. ( The exception make the rule is a thing) I believe it's a strong possibility of Henry Cavill chosing to make the show about the Custodes, and I also guess that he wants to act as Valdor. The interview hinted that he would prefer to be one of the most powerful characters. Starting with doing the Horus heresy was too big and expensive as a pilot show, so he couldn't play as a Primarch as he would have liked the most. Guessing on Sanguineous since he started as a BA player. Now he plays the Custodes, and really think that they are (hopefully were) awesome af. So when a Custodes focused show was greenlit by the moneysuits, the script writers and the Amazon prime boss realized that there isn't any possibility of a female companion, ( which is a must for these people) and they panicked. Then they simply ordered GW to remedy this outrageous idea as quickly as possible. The woke GW couldn't have been more happy. Now they got that special thing that means going full woke is in their stained hands. Soon as the codex was completed they tweeted. This makes sense in my mind. Just a theory that fits. You all know that just the idea of a "Brotherhood of Demi-gods" no women allowed made the woke-garbage faint. The ideologi simply cannot let the female companion not be as powerful and reweard as Cavill's Valdor. Just imagine a woke muppet being a part of something that has rules that say that the females must obey and nigh on worship the male lead. 😂 They would throw fits like a toddler..... Frankly like a woke female fits even better. Just imagine if it is a show about Cavill as a Custodes. It plus woke muppets simply can't fit. The garbage can't give an inch. To anything, anytime.
Yeah I'm done with AdRic. They're basically baby's first lore podcast anyway, but towing the line with the Blackrock and Vanguard ESG initiatives is the straw to break the camel's back.
@@EddyOfTheMaelstrom agreed,i cringe everytime they call slaanesh a they/them like seriously? Its clearly stated as the pronce of pleasure or she who thirsts you could have used either and nobody would give a shit but nope you wanna insert modern day vitue signaling into a game that has deamons who turn mortals organs into musical instraments.....
Whenever those who say this will "get women into the hobby" i just imagine there's hundreds of women hiding in the trees and shrubs outside hobby stores just waiting for the femstodes or female space marines to drop.
Exactly. Star Wars was a much more normie friendly to begin with than 40k, and look how pandering to the "female audience" worked out for them... The only reason it has an upswing now is because they returned to their core audience somewhat. The woke don't say these arguments because they actually believe it, they just have this deep ideological hatred for anything non-woke, and come up with rational justifications on why it should be changed afterwards. Because SURELY, something as "problematic" as cool super soldiers who can't be female cannot be profitable, "everyone" would hate that. (And by that they mean everyone they personally know, of course.) They cannot concieve of anyone else having any other worldview than them (except the subhuman bigots).
Anyone who knows enough about the setting to know about the female custodes is already a fan. You don't get to the point of even knowing who the custodes are without spending a good deal of time reading the lore.
Those people are stupid. Women don't do Warhammer because there's females. Most women arent interested in Warhammer, war in general, let alone wargames or the spergy things required to do to be part of the hobby. Women don't like the same things as men, and that's good. We shouldn't be trying to change it. Not that this is really what this is of course...
The average warhammer fan is broadly liberal - he's in favour of equality and has no problem with women, but he's not going to post on sigmarxism. He's absolutely fine with women who want to play the game but doesn't like anyone - male or female - trying to push DEI into it. He's ok with people doing female space marines as a hobby project but not demanding they change the lore. This is proven by both the enthusiastic support for the Sisters of Battle, and perhaps moreso by the warm welcome the Sisters of Silence received when they were "retconned" into the Horus Heresy (even though it wasn't a retcon because the implication was that they were a 30k faction that didn't exist in 40k just like the legions or Thunder Warriors) and quickly became a fan favorite faction... because the fans aren't sexist, they're very happy with cool factions. Claims of sexism are pure fabrications by woke ideologues trying to silence reasonable arguments they can't answer.
There is no such a thing as "broadly liberal" anymore. You are either on board with everything these deranged people believe on or you are "far right".
Games Workshop has created a manifestation event where EVERYONE will be eating their lunch soon, taking big bites out of their market share. Never has there been a time before where people in the hobby have at once decided it's time to build their own IPs.
I dont know how many times this has to be said, but its not avout women. Its about the implications this has for the future and the lore. We would be just as pissed of if they came out and said "Oh there have always been male sisters of battle!"
@@MechbossBoogie The only bad guy is the empire, the other factions are just misunderstood and are trying to resist the empires colonial aggression.. fucking shoot me.
agreed, and the ironic part is if they added a female guard head to the basic guard infantry kit it would've probably caused exactly what they wanted to do to with this revisionist nonsense.
The worst thing of it all, even though is not surprising is seeing people like Bricky helping the Slaanesh tourists gain space and influence amidst the hobby. I do recognize the good quality of his content on 40k, however, his activism and political views on it are the complete personification of what is wrong in the community. The guy is the literal vengeance and the greatest asset of the sigmarxists.
@@ActualDrunkAtheistI wish we had a podcast of hardcore fans who are actually funny guys. I want bros chillin around drinkin beers and having fun talking about the lore.
Thanks, Asmogan. Warhammer is no threat to progression, it is masculin escapism which leads to equilibrium in relationships and evolution. Men need an outlet and Warhammer should be lauded for offering that to conscientious people.
No, don't just have Cawl do it. I don't want him to be the universe's deus ex machima. There should always be things that no one in that universe can solve.
I think what everyone misses is this is govt/corporation pushed. People more powerful than presidents, prime ministers or even Kings are funding this to happen. If you know what I mean you’ll know that the money is unlimited. They take money from taxes and pour it into companies to push the ideology. This is why we shouldn’t waste time figuring out why the company would make a decision like this even if it costs them money. The point isn’t to make money, it’s to destroy anything and everything you love. As long as the companies push ideology the top earners in the company will be paid out. PAID OUT. If you want this to stop you’re going to have to burn the midnight oil. Read up on the Frankfurt school and their influence on western culture. Once you understand what has been done you will understand why all of these companies are doing this.
I think it's fairly obvious that this lore change is so there can be an overpowered female to boss Eisenhorn around in the show, and upstage him, berate him, and diminish him at every turn. Mark these words, Amazon demanded lore than allowed them to have their overpowered domineering girl boss to ruin the male lead, as they do with every other IP.
Amazon was *NEVER* going to make a good adaptation on the first place... After what they did to the Wheel of Time I decided to always assume anything they made would be trash... and nothing they've done since has changed my mind
Why are you against female custodes.... well.... Star wars Disney Mcu Wheel of time Dr who Arhkem verse Saints row Horizon Last of us Lord of the rings Star trek Terminator Ghostbusters Dc comics ......
24:00 I'll offer a quote that I believe to be relevant. “You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.” I personally know many people that are equally hopelessly dependant on their beloved franchises merely existing, that they will fight to protect them no matter what form the franchises take. No. I do not think this will go the way you believe it will. Your best bet is for men to be men. Have them "touch grass" and take on real responsibilities. If you need escapism, look no further than your imagination. You can take inspiration from anywhere and make anything from it. These things, these franchises, are from someone else's imagination at the end of the day. They're merely trying to make money off of your interest. Heck, they're also inspired by many things themselves, so it's not like they're totally original. We can do better, gentlemen.
I remember when I lived in the UK for a few years around 2010, I registered to my local library. During my registration process, the librarian asked me: "What race are you?" I remember I was like 10 or 12 year old at the time, and my gut reaction was "Excuse me, what the F*CK did you just ask me?" I was stumped. I'm from Eastern Europe, a supposedly "backwards" country compared to the West, but never have I heard of any institution being so blatantly racist. Didn't we get past registering people's racial identity in around 1945?
This isn't something you can sit on the fence about, you're either for or against this change. This is just the beginning of a slippery slide into ultimate pussified wokery, that has come for other beloved franchises over the last decade that we have all had to watch die slow and torturous deaths under the thumb of modernism and "the mEsSaGe". If you can't see where this is going you are blind.
The slipping started years ago and most just ate it up because they still mixed it with mostly awesome male power fantasy and other" keys" dangling before them. So many just got on their knees and opened wide after first begging GW for more. It's the same goddamn playbook as for comics and games and everything.... Why are people so spineless. Just like in the other hobbies many if not the majority, willingly closed their eyes and even mocked and laughed at the folks who didn't boil like frogs. Now they act like they didn't. Spineless and without character seems to be the preferred state for these "men" nowadays. Reap what you sow maggots.
Unsubbed from bricky and ad.redic over their 6+ minute cope rant about how it doesn't matter. It is always funny when a lore channel declares that lore doesn't matter.
@LakenAnderson my man Bricky has brought more people into the hobby then Arch ever has what are you on? It must be good to like the borderline neo-nazi
i know four women that play 40k and not single one play female models you know who do go on 100% of the time talking about wanting female space marine thats right men lol
@@nicholastaylor9687 I play Tau and my army is 50/50, with a female commander. I've started collecting Nids too though, but my paint job turned out badly and I need to strip them and start over. :(
Unfortunately the Supreme Court didn't actually rule against DEI - also it was the USA Supreme Court, not the UK Supreme Court - Warhammer is a UK based property.
No need to give it up entirely. Just refuse to play with updated rules and refuse to spend money in ways that end up in GWs pocket. So buy used, even better buy third party and use old editions and lore books. If a third party has a partnership with GW don't spend money on them etc. Starve the beast. Then hopefully either GW learns or they crash so hard someone better can buy up the IP for cheap.
Sometimes I wish to think this is like a Tzeentch maketing campaign. But let's be honest I think a lot of Star Wars and Star Trek fans that 40k was like their last hidden safe bunker, I can understand why they are angry.
The funniest thing about them not having MODELS to launch with the codex. The 3D printers are going to have the market saturated before they can out out official minis. They are going to lose sales because of this.
The Femperor was never JUST a man, they are the holy hermaphrodite, able to inseminate themselves to birth the Primarchs actually, physically. This is known. Where HAVE you been?
1:06:00 ish. The one (extremely anecdotal) counter-point I have to women not playing/gravitating to female factions, is that the scant few women i've come across in several decades who played tabletop Necromunda were House Escher players. I think the heavy punk aesthetic was a contributing factor.
In my experience, all of the women who are into 40k are very "alternative" types of one form or another, and their choice of armies follows on from whatever else they already like. All the women I've ever known in the hobby were anime fans first who got excited about those super handsome space vampire Blood Angels. I've never played Necromunda with women, but if I had to guess, about half would be into psycho-chicks with big mohawks (self-insert) Escher and the other half into BIG BEEFY House Goliaths. And there's nothing wrong with any of that. But it goes to show that people approach this universe NOT just because there are lady models, but because they see something interesting in the lore that clicks with them. There have been female guard models around for forever, and are WAY more accessible now with 3D printing, but they are still a niche thing and not many women (even women who are into TT generally) want to pick them up. More often it's weird guys who want to make an army of Vasquev muscle mommies.
I just have 10 books left in the Horus Heresy series. I will finish these and move on to other books other than 40Gay. I am keeping my models because I have had them forever but will not be purchasing any more. In fact, I boycotted them back when they told me I wouldn't be missed. I now play other games. GW crap is not the only games out there. They are only the most expensive. As for the books, I have been getting them second hand just to keep my money out of GW's paws.
I think I'm done with GW, I'll always love 40k, but i think for me the timeline stops at the battle for cadia... everything else has been down hill ever since... so I'll stay in m41 and m42 can continue to be a dumpster fire that I'll laugh at from the past... I'll consider no new lore written by slaanesh cultists
Yep, TTS is the true canon for the return of the primarchs. I even accept the Ultramarines going into the eye of terror with their no Gellar shields to nab Magnus. It’s still better than new lore.
Well, GW HAS DEF. CROSSED THE 🌈 Colored *_RUBICON_* now: and there *_is_*_ no _*_going back,_* hence the saying. 40K will never be the same, that's for sure: 🤔 💬 (for all the smooth 🧠 's & Tourists out there) People, for the majority, don't like the Change: *not* because there are suddenly Female Custodes now, but for the *_LAZY, Uninspired way_* GW just *_Shoehorned_* them into the Lore (w/ *_No Connective Tissue_* ) and then *_Lying_* about it & gaslighting Fans as it it's always been this way....rather than a blatant & sudden change.
Pretty much. White dwarf (GWs monthly magazine) featured lgbtqa+ space marines in a section naming them the gate crushers. One of the marines was even painted in the colours of the MAP flag (MAP a abbrieviation of minor attracted person aka pedophile!)
I wish so. Sadly a tiny portion of the players will actually stop buying. And GW has always got the bull of its profits from the buy in from new players. People new to the hobby won’t care about one army having new female members written into one codex.
Games workshop doesn't get it. What they are doing is the equivalent of saying one of Jesus apostles was female. War Hammer 40k fans are devoted and the best way to correct this is dont spend money on anything gamers work shop, till they backoff on female Custodes, which have never existed in 30 years of lore.
There are no female Custodes, there have never been female Custodes and there will never be female Custodes. This is our hobby, we decide what models we will allow in our games and GW is just an over priced model making company.
@@chalzen1012 I suppose that’s a reasonable response I’m just sick of people acting like a retcon is the end of the hobby it isn’t we’ve had loads of retcons
I love the memes crossing over, LOL! Arch leaves, Dev gets mentioned and you can immediately see "The communist" in the chat, as well as "Breed Kibs", hahaha! :D
Simply shut down the stock market and BR/Vangaurd disappear. You can still invest but it requires actually calling a company and asking if they want a loan.
Hope that someone make a extended version of the online space marine painter, so we do a front and back for Paperwarhammer. That would be a funny way of showing that we play the game, but boycot GW. (most people just paper printers)
I have 2 complete armies, BT and Sisters, I am not buying anymore models from them and all of my friends who play aren’t buying anymore either, we love the world and the hobby, but none of us are willing to support this woke death cult.
Do we want our hobby to be controlled by a company that only cares about what shareholders want and not what the consumers want? GW managed to create a product based on what the market wanted based on operating in a competitive market. Now when corrupt government money is more important fans need to abandon the company that abandon them.
What was the name of your TTWG id love to look forward to it. Love the lore already. I’ll miss space bugs, but they made me think of the thing anyways so the Gretch are just an upgrade.
Warglaive Gothic, still working on it intently in the background and development is slow but I hope to make more and more progress and start hiring more help where I can! Glad you're excited!
This kinda explains why they threw out my application for a job in their USA branch a couple years ago. For context I sent GW an application for a job almost every year since I was a kid. And I would usually get a response maybe an interview,but a couple years ago they just stopped responding all together.
The fans are, once again, making the best out of a bad situation. The meme comic of the female custodes being a changer of ways is the only way I’ll accept it 😂
Not me. When I hear "I didn't set the world on fire." I immediately think of the Inkspots. But then again I knew of the Inkspots before Fallout. For example: th-cam.com/video/E9de-cmycx8/w-d-xo.html
if there was to be a female custodies i imagine it be a singular character which could get a miniature. have it be something like trying to see if female custodies was doable and out of a crazy amount of applicants 1 was successful in becoming a custodian and it was then deemed a fruitless effort and declared that trying to create female custodies is a heretical action with the purpose of destroying sacred resources and weaken the imperium.
I was really looking forward to getting Rouge Trader and Spacemarine 2, but not if they're gonna piss on their own product. Why should we care when they obviously dont? Boycott till the Banana Boyz are back
forgot what turned me off of game workshops decades ago. was when reading their magazine, the artcilces changed an the writers i was reading didnt contribute no more. plus it was a expensive hobby, with alot of straight time needed on a game. was waiting till tech made it more fun. left dnd when the editions, became more a way to just make money when i started, the 1st adition was for mass heroic adventures 2nd was more a mix bringing in role playing with expansion 3rd more indepth on role playing with great how to an companions didn't see a need for fourth other than more confusion an sales.
Some people still play 2nd edition DnD, look up OSR. - also maybe some Custodes changed gender? they could still be sons and "have always been women" with 2024 glasses on... def heresy though.
I'm curious to know if you believe that it's possible to turn from what you were born as irl? It's not, and not even close. I'm only saying it because I have encountered so many people who actually believe that it is possible to change your stuff into other bonafide stuff. Dildos aren't D's, and that is all you will ever be able to get after being mutilated. No matter how many times they say it. Same thing with digging a hole. I'm not accusing you of anything, only asking you to actually look at the evidence if you happen to have been convinced by the liars. Have a nice day.
First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me

“First they came for the communists and i did not speak out because i was not a socialist Second they came for the minorities and i did not speak out because i not a minority Then they came for the jews and i did not speak out because i was not a jew Then they stopped coming for people because all the problems had been solved”
I agree that how they did it was idiotic, but I dont have anything against female SMs or Custodies. I like archetype of big muscled females in media especially in power armor, and since I am straight man, I obviously like female figures :D So like female SMs or Custodies - I dont care. Even without new figures, it will be nice to order some nice female heads and replace on figures. But how they did it with blatant like and gaslighting is just horrible way to handle it. Should have made any bullshit lore excuse (like with Primaries) instead that from now on females can also become custodies and be done with it.
@@jajurvonhohenzollern5542 Sure, but as someone for whom 40k is not his whole life - I dont mind female SMs or Cutodes. I just think how they handled it was aboslutely shit. 40k is just magic bs space fantasy so I don't really care if man/woman are in power armor. I just think they absolutely fucked up retcon and communication. As for change itself - whatever.
You can have in doujin shit or some individual exceptions I don't care. But what's the point imperium do this? Elite force is elite for a reason. There is STANDARD. You can't normalized that. They are not some random person just put in power amour. They must achieve some extreme task (well in hypothetical obviously) to be that and this is why we love them. If you take this part and make SW qualifications like participation award. Nobody gonna love them.
"Warhammer Illiterate" "normie" "real fans" are such grossly elitist terms dripping in egotism. You can discuss this topic in a mature and rational way without resorting to these kinds of jabs at people who you seem to thinknyou are above. I agree with being a bit annoyed about the way it was hamfisted into the lore but honestly, this is so over the top. Who gives a fuck if there are female Custodes - I'm more pissed that they scrapped my entire army I've spent two years painting and basing for AoS. I would argue that's a much more direct spit in the face to players like me than releasing shoddy lore.
Good for you. But WE give a fuck. FemStodes are just the first step. Those terms are used to distinguish between the fans and the tourists. The tourists are actively ruining shit. You're blind if you can't see what Arch is saying is happening.
"The only reason everybody plays 40k, instead of beating sticks and stones - is because of the lore context of what we are doing. We are fighting with an army of space marines against chaos BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY REPRESENT - Not SIMPLY because you want to roll the dice. If that's all you want to do there are frankly far superior alternatives out there. Without the LORE the TABLETOP WILL NOT EXIST. And quite frankly the LORE CAN EXIST WITHOUT THE TABLETOP, but NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND The TABLETOP NEEDS the LORE, while the LORE does NOT necessarily need the TABLETOP. Which when these changes happen THEY UNDERMINE THE LORE - THEY DO NOT EXIST, and HAVE NOT EXISTED for 30 years of LORE HISTORY. Now we exactly know what it is - WOKEISM and DEI. This will in turn affect the LORE - DEVALUING IT, MAKING THE UNIVERSE LESS APPEALING and ITS FUTURE LESS APPEALING STILL" - Arch
@wanderlifeitis I get the lore is important, I literally said I don't think the way they did it was great. They could've gone about it in a much more interesting and meaningful way. But there have been plenty of lore changes, retcons, etc, that were WAY more universe-affecting than this, is what I'm saying. I just don't get why this is suddenly the stick that broke the camels back. It seems so minor in comparison to some of the former changes they've made.
Omg a female custodes just lapped my niece at her track meet! This is bs!!! Meanwhile I was watching the debt clock online and I started to think so I even know what really matters?

Based Heck you could even say it's the reason you dont see female Space Marines apart from specifically crafted custodes, because the geneseed inately breaks down in some way which leads to horrific results if not constantly monitored and cant be accounted for with initiates from the populace. It *allows* for female space Marines and custodes but explains why it just isnt done unless in specific extraordinary cases or very poorly thought out cases.

I believe that it is because of the Amazon woke agenda in tandem with the woke-garbage at GW, and the ones who believe that this show is their tickets to mainstream glory.
Amazon have surely written a contract about forced DEI must be in everything that gets produced just like Hollywood and the Oscar's did some years ago.
( The exception make the rule is a thing)
I believe it's a strong possibility of Henry Cavill chosing to make the show about the Custodes, and I also guess that he wants to act as Valdor.
The interview hinted that he would prefer to be one of the most powerful characters.
Starting with doing the Horus heresy was too big and expensive as a pilot show, so he couldn't play as a Primarch as he would have liked the most. Guessing on Sanguineous since he started as a BA player.
Now he plays the Custodes, and really think that they are (hopefully were) awesome af.
So when a Custodes focused show was greenlit by the moneysuits, the script writers and the Amazon prime boss realized that there isn't any possibility of a female companion, ( which is a must for these people) and they panicked.
Then they simply ordered GW to remedy this outrageous idea as quickly as possible.
The woke GW couldn't have been more happy. Now they got that special thing that means going full woke is in their stained hands.
Soon as the codex was completed they tweeted.
This makes sense in my mind. Just a theory that fits.
You all know that just the idea of a "Brotherhood of Demi-gods" no women allowed made the woke-garbage faint.
The ideologi simply cannot let the female companion not be as powerful and reweard as Cavill's Valdor.
Just imagine a woke muppet being a part of something that has rules that say that the females must obey and nigh on worship the male lead. 😂
They would throw fits like a toddler..... Frankly like a woke female fits even better.
Just imagine if it is a show about Cavill as a Custodes. It plus woke muppets simply can't fit. The garbage can't give an inch. To anything, anytime.

@@EddyOfTheMaelstrom agreed,i cringe everytime they call slaanesh a they/them like seriously? Its clearly stated as the pronce of pleasure or she who thirsts you could have used either and nobody would give a shit but nope you wanna insert modern day vitue signaling into a game that has deamons who turn mortals organs into musical instraments.....
Whenever those who say this will "get women into the hobby" i just imagine there's hundreds of women hiding in the trees and shrubs outside hobby stores just waiting for the femstodes or female space marines to drop.
Exactly. Star Wars was a much more normie friendly to begin with than 40k, and look how pandering to the "female audience" worked out for them... The only reason it has an upswing now is because they returned to their core audience somewhat.
The woke don't say these arguments because they actually believe it, they just have this deep ideological hatred for anything non-woke, and come up with rational justifications on why it should be changed afterwards. Because SURELY, something as "problematic" as cool super soldiers who can't be female cannot be profitable, "everyone" would hate that. (And by that they mean everyone they personally know, of course.)
They cannot concieve of anyone else having any other worldview than them (except the subhuman bigots).
Anyone who knows enough about the setting to know about the female custodes is already a fan. You don't get to the point of even knowing who the custodes are without spending a good deal of time reading the lore.
Those people are stupid. Women don't do Warhammer because there's females. Most women arent interested in Warhammer, war in general, let alone wargames or the spergy things required to do to be part of the hobby. Women don't like the same things as men, and that's good. We shouldn't be trying to change it. Not that this is really what this is of course...
I don't want the changes. I want to play my Space Wolves as-is. Orcs on Armageddon!!!
The average warhammer fan is broadly liberal - he's in favour of equality and has no problem with women, but he's not going to post on sigmarxism. He's absolutely fine with women who want to play the game but doesn't like anyone - male or female - trying to push DEI into it. He's ok with people doing female space marines as a hobby project but not demanding they change the lore.
This is proven by both the enthusiastic support for the Sisters of Battle, and perhaps moreso by the warm welcome the Sisters of Silence received when they were "retconned" into the Horus Heresy (even though it wasn't a retcon because the implication was that they were a 30k faction that didn't exist in 40k just like the legions or Thunder Warriors) and quickly became a fan favorite faction... because the fans aren't sexist, they're very happy with cool factions.
Claims of sexism are pure fabrications by woke ideologues trying to silence reasonable arguments they can't answer.
There is no such a thing as "broadly liberal" anymore. You are either on board with everything these deranged people believe on or you are "far right".
I’m literally a facist

Games Workshop has created a manifestation event where EVERYONE will be eating their lunch soon, taking big bites out of their market share. Never has there been a time before where people in the hobby have at once decided it's time to build their own IPs.
I dont know how many times this has to be said, but its not avout women.
Its about the implications this has for the future and the lore.
We would be just as pissed of if they came out and said "Oh there have always been male sisters of battle!"
Malcadore never died.
There's no one on the Golden Throne.
The emperor never existed.
Etc. All equally as abhorrent to the lore.

The worst thing of it all, even though is not surprising is seeing people like Bricky helping the Slaanesh tourists gain space and influence amidst the hobby. I do recognize the good quality of his content on 40k, however, his activism and political views on it are the complete personification of what is wrong in the community. The guy is the literal vengeance and the greatest asset of the sigmarxists.
Bricky has always been a massive tool in this regard

My local store, when it still was around, threw out Warhammer products completely because GW was the most unreliable partner in existence.
I think what everyone misses is this is govt/corporation pushed. People more powerful than presidents, prime ministers or even Kings are funding this to happen. If you know what I mean you’ll know that the money is unlimited. They take money from taxes and pour it into companies to push the ideology. This is why we shouldn’t waste time figuring out why the company would make a decision like this even if it costs them money. The point isn’t to make money, it’s to destroy anything and everything you love. As long as the companies push ideology the top earners in the company will be paid out. PAID OUT.
If you want this to stop you’re going to have to burn the midnight oil. Read up on the Frankfurt school and their influence on western culture. Once you understand what has been done you will understand why all of these companies are doing this.
I think it's fairly obvious that this lore change is so there can be an overpowered female to boss Eisenhorn around in the show, and upstage him, berate him, and diminish him at every turn. Mark these words, Amazon demanded lore than allowed them to have their overpowered domineering girl boss to ruin the male lead, as they do with every other IP.
Makes sense. Custodes are THE Bosses. They're also only men.
Amazon was *NEVER* going to make a good adaptation on the first place... After what they did to the Wheel of Time I decided to always assume anything they made would be trash... and nothing they've done since has changed my mind

I'll offer a quote that I believe to be relevant.
“You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.”
I personally know many people that are equally hopelessly dependant on their beloved franchises merely existing, that they will fight to protect them no matter what form the franchises take.
No. I do not think this will go the way you believe it will.
Your best bet is for men to be men. Have them "touch grass" and take on real responsibilities. If you need escapism, look no further than your imagination. You can take inspiration from anywhere and make anything from it.
These things, these franchises, are from someone else's imagination at the end of the day. They're merely trying to make money off of your interest. Heck, they're also inspired by many things themselves, so it's not like they're totally original.
We can do better, gentlemen.
3D printer go burrrrrr
Yeah thing is men only rise as far as a society is worth rising for and the respect they are given, which in modem society is little to none
I remember when I lived in the UK for a few years around 2010, I registered to my local library. During my registration process, the librarian asked me:
"What race are you?"
I remember I was like 10 or 12 year old at the time, and my gut reaction was "Excuse me, what the F*CK did you just ask me?" I was stumped. I'm from Eastern Europe, a supposedly "backwards" country compared to the West, but never have I heard of any institution being so blatantly racist. Didn't we get past registering people's racial identity in around 1945?
Yes then the people lost thier minds and started saying "color blindness is just white supremacy" so we found our way right back into this stupidity
This isn't something you can sit on the fence about, you're either for or against this change.
This is just the beginning of a slippery slide into ultimate pussified wokery, that has come for other beloved franchises over the last decade that we have all had to watch die slow and torturous deaths under the thumb of modernism and "the mEsSaGe".
If you can't see where this is going you are blind.
No no there is always a choice my friend those you are for, those how are agaisnt and the one how should say nothing and stay on the fence
The slipping started years ago and most just ate it up because they still mixed it with mostly awesome male power fantasy and other" keys" dangling before them.
So many just got on their knees and opened wide after first begging GW for more.
It's the same goddamn playbook as for comics and games and everything....
Why are people so spineless. Just like in the other hobbies many if not the majority, willingly closed their eyes and even mocked and laughed at the folks who didn't boil like frogs.

No need to give it up entirely. Just refuse to play with updated rules and refuse to spend money in ways that end up in GWs pocket. So buy used, even better buy third party and use old editions and lore books. If a third party has a partnership with GW don't spend money on them etc. Starve the beast. Then hopefully either GW learns or they crash so hard someone better can buy up the IP for cheap.
It’s been a damn long time since the last one hasn’t it.

1:06:00 ish. The one (extremely anecdotal) counter-point I have to women not playing/gravitating to female factions, is that the scant few women i've come across in several decades who played tabletop Necromunda were House Escher players. I think the heavy punk aesthetic was a contributing factor.
In my experience, all of the women who are into 40k are very "alternative" types of one form or another, and their choice of armies follows on from whatever else they already like. All the women I've ever known in the hobby were anime fans first who got excited about those super handsome space vampire Blood Angels. I've never played Necromunda with women, but if I had to guess, about half would be into psycho-chicks with big mohawks (self-insert) Escher and the other half into BIG BEEFY House Goliaths.
And there's nothing wrong with any of that. But it goes to show that people approach this universe NOT just because there are lady models, but because they see something interesting in the lore that clicks with them. There have been female guard models around for forever, and are WAY more accessible now with 3D printing, but they are still a niche thing and not many women (even women who are into TT generally) want to pick them up. More often it's weird guys who want to make an army of Vasquev muscle mommies.
Arch WarHammer for G.W. CEO...That's the apologize fans need
I just have 10 books left in the Horus Heresy series. I will finish these and move on to other books other than 40Gay. I am keeping my models because I have had them forever but will not be purchasing any more. In fact, I boycotted them back when they told me I wouldn't be missed. I now play other games. GW crap is not the only games out there. They are only the most expensive. As for the books, I have been getting them second hand just to keep my money out of GW's paws.
This will marked as what killed the hobby just like every other scifi franchise all dead and dust.
Bricky had such an awful take. Explaining why "it doesn't matter" while being snarky and condescending. It's a shame it's come to this

I'll consider no new lore written by slaanesh cultists
I agree with this sentiment. We should all just do what Bitcoin does and branch off with our own thing.
Yep, TTS is the true canon for the return of the primarchs. I even accept the Ultramarines going into the eye of terror with their no Gellar shields to nab Magnus. It’s still better than new lore.
Is Games Workshop finally dead as a company? Is Warhammer a dead IP now?
Watch the stream
Not yet but like the emperor it has been mortally wouned.
Well, GW HAS DEF. CROSSED THE 🌈 Colored *_RUBICON_* now: and there *_is_*_ no _*_going back,_* hence the saying.
40K will never be the same, that's for sure:
🤔 💬 (for all the smooth 🧠 's & Tourists out there) People, for the majority, don't like the Change: *not* because there are suddenly Female Custodes now, but for the *_LAZY, Uninspired way_* GW just *_Shoehorned_* them into the Lore (w/ *_No Connective Tissue_* ) and then *_Lying_* about it & gaslighting Fans as it it's always been this way....rather than a blatant & sudden change.
Pretty much. White dwarf (GWs monthly magazine) featured lgbtqa+ space marines in a section naming them the gate crushers. One of the marines was even painted in the colours of the MAP flag (MAP a abbrieviation of minor attracted person aka pedophile!)
I wish so.
Sadly a tiny portion of the players will actually stop buying.
And GW has always got the bull of its profits from the buy in from new players. People new to the hobby won’t care about one army having new female members written into one codex.
Games workshop doesn't get it. What they are doing is the equivalent of saying one of Jesus apostles was female. War Hammer 40k fans are devoted and the best way to correct this is dont spend money on anything gamers work shop, till they backoff on female Custodes, which have never existed in 30 years of lore.
There are no female Custodes, there have never been female Custodes and there will never be female Custodes. This is our hobby, we decide what models we will allow in our games and GW is just an over priced model making company.

Do we want our hobby to be controlled by a company that only cares about what shareholders want and not what the consumers want?

I agree that how they did it was idiotic, but I dont have anything against female SMs or Custodies. I like archetype of big muscled females in media especially in power armor, and since I am straight man, I obviously like female figures :D
So like female SMs or Custodies - I dont care. Even without new figures, it will be nice to order some nice female heads and replace on figures.
But how they did it with blatant like and gaslighting is just horrible way to handle it. Should have made any bullshit lore excuse (like with Primaries) instead that from now on females can also become custodies and be done with it.

@@jajurvonhohenzollern5542 Sure, but as someone for whom 40k is not his whole life - I dont mind female SMs or Cutodes. I just think how they handled it was aboslutely shit. 40k is just magic bs space fantasy so I don't really care if man/woman are in power armor.
I just think they absolutely fucked up retcon and communication. As for change itself - whatever.

"Warhammer Illiterate" "normie" "real fans" are such grossly elitist terms dripping in egotism. You can discuss this topic in a mature and rational way without resorting to these kinds of jabs at people who you seem to thinknyou are above.

Who gives a fuck if there are female Custodes - I'm more pissed that they scrapped my entire army I've spent two years painting and basing for AoS. I would argue that's a much more direct spit in the face to players like me than releasing shoddy lore.
Good for you. But WE give a fuck. FemStodes are just the first step. Those terms are used to distinguish between the fans and the tourists. The tourists are actively ruining shit. You're blind if you can't see what Arch is saying is happening.
"The only reason everybody plays 40k, instead of beating sticks and stones - is because of the lore context of what we are doing.
We are fighting with an army of space marines against chaos BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY REPRESENT - Not SIMPLY because you want to roll the dice.
If that's all you want to do there are frankly far superior alternatives out there. Without the LORE the TABLETOP WILL NOT EXIST. And quite frankly the LORE CAN EXIST WITHOUT THE TABLETOP, but NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND
The TABLETOP NEEDS the LORE, while the LORE does NOT necessarily need the TABLETOP. Which when these changes happen THEY UNDERMINE THE LORE - THEY DO NOT EXIST, and HAVE NOT EXISTED for 30 years of LORE HISTORY. Now we exactly know what it is - WOKEISM and DEI.
This will in turn affect the LORE - DEVALUING IT, MAKING THE UNIVERSE LESS APPEALING and ITS FUTURE LESS APPEALING STILL" - Arch

@wanderlifeitis I get the lore is important, I literally said I don't think the way they did it was great. They could've gone about it in a much more interesting and meaningful way. But there have been plenty of lore changes, retcons, etc, that were WAY more universe-affecting than this, is what I'm saying.

And what's you're point if they don't ?
@@JamesThomas-wc1jdyou do realize femstodes are part of the "presentation of the codex"... but people like you don't want to have a reasoned conversation about things, that's why you started with mud slinging
