And newbies like her are the target audience for intro boxes. As a whole, it isn't an issues and this "outrage" is not worth it, but it shows a design issues with how GW creates Space Marines and how blandness can hurt how it's interpreted. I just wish they would give their artists more freedom.

Sure, absolutely, at least to a point. It's a good and clean model, but my issue is with readability. I even showed the two models to my partner and for her it wasn't clear which was the more elite model. Even saying that the Smurf looked more "aggressive". (I passed pics through translator app)

Their role is the same, elite melee specialists. I do think think there should be some clear distinction between normal marine and an elite one. They are silly space knights, make them look like it. AoS did this well with it's box with Liberators vs Reclusians. One is clearly elite and one is not.

Yeah I get that, even more so for a introductory box. But these are supposed to be your special snowflake veterans and they've had no issues of blinging out their Primaris veterans before. I don't even care for marines, most of them are boring as hell, but this just feels lazy. 😅

They could be something closer to the old 5th Vangvets. With all the filigree and other details. With Black Templar and Dark Angel ranges out there, I know they can do it. But yeah, Space Marines do be Space Marines. They do get a bit stale.

But to be fair, I also agree in that it does make the original feel even better.

I remember it well when it Horus Rising came out. There was so much hype around it in my local shop. Never though it would get this big.

Thanks, now when it's put like that, it does make sense. I still need to read the Grombrindal books. Heard good things about them.

I don't doubt it, but I would love to get the WD issue number for this. Still, disappointing.

It's been a decade since I saw this, but the slow creeping horror it had spooked me good back then and memories has stayed with me ever since. It was also good movie.

Exactly. I was very dismissive of it for years, but about 3 years ago I finally gave it a real chance and it has since rapidly become one of my favorite game settings.

It's a great game and nowadays the lore is good too. It's just a difficult setting to get into as not many people can't bother to read the novels and AOS doesn't have a good video game yet.

I always remember that one Painting Phase video where ex-GW employees confirm that GW was weeks away from bankruptcy. Also best setting? Having grown up with it, I do love it dearly. But let's be real, it's a thinly veiled collection of Tolkien and DnD tropes and cultural pastiches, not high art.

I would have FromSoftware make a new King's Field game and remake Dark Souls 2. I don't even care that much about the franchise, but I would have them make a new ending season or two for Game of Thrones, either live-action or animated, just so that we can have some real closure.

What I like about role-playing games is that they allow you to act out power fantasies that you could never achieve in real life.
Screencap from Elder Scrolls Oblivion. A dialog box says "How long would you like to sleep? 9 Hours."

Path to Glory has a mechanic for building your own character. For friendly games I would absolutely allow for people to use those.

In an age when complex epic fantasy books, with introspective main characters and nuanced and sympathethic antagonists are all the rage. Man, I just like a simple, fun and a bit dumb fantasy stories. With straightforward heroes and honest villains that aren't afraid to just be evil.

I don't like the citadel pots, dropper bottles all the way. However, I'll fully admit that it's really satisfying to peel those things off.

This. I have been slowly moving to using Fluff instead of Lore because of this.

Actually that dagger and it's crossguard is very similar to some existing FEC blades. This has to be FEC.

Oh yeah, it's either a Mawtribes butcher of sorts, or a FEC thing. Leaning towards Ogres though.

40k: Bring back vehicle armor values and destruction charts! Heck bring back d6 charts overall, they are a ton of fun! Also, 40k and AOS faction rules has lost too much of their flavor. Bring back the wackiness!

I fully agree! Both should have a separate "Standard" and "Matched Play" option, along side with Crusade and Path to Glory, etc.

Of course, everything written there is specifically written to me and me alone. And I will obviously take -all- of it personally. /s Man, some people are just dumb.

I really want to say that just play Black Mesa, however the new end chapters felt really stretched out and I was struggling. Almost everything else about it is pretty great. The og is a tighter experience for sure.
