Just remember, Space Marines are BAD and there's no such thing as canon in 40k. Human who talks at a camera about geek stuff. He/him.

Oh, to make it official: my 37th mini painted in 2026 was my Big Thawk.
A 3d printed recreation of a 1992 epic thunderhawk gunship mini but 5 times as big so it can be used in Warhammer 40,000.

It is painted yellow and with the livery of the Lamenters chapter.

Hey @oculusimperia.bsky.social @arbitorian.bsky.social I know it’s a little cheeky, but I’m trying to get a game of Rogue Trader rolling and I’m having trouble getting the word out to 40K fans. Any chance of a share?

Main takeaway from the #HorusHeresy event: since HH now has a Reaction Allotment, using one is referred to as 'burning a cabbage'. "I grow 3 reaction cabbages in my allotment this turn" "I'm gonna cabbage that shooting attack" "I burn a cabbage to move away from you" Other veg acceptable.

The video that keeps giving. Turns out someone called 'Vandal SS' with a totally innocent tag thinks I'm a 'race traitor'! Getting a lot of these since the angry nerds got angry again last week, but YT dumps them into the 'held' pile. Remember: judge YouTubers by the company they keep!

There are #NoGoodGuys in 40K, but in 2K there's Arbitor Ian. IGN couldn't have chosen a better person to do this than @arbitorian.bsky.social. That guy not only knows his shit (there are many of those around), but also *gets* the setting. That's sadly a rare feat indeed nowadays.
