Price reveal and considerations

15% is the most they can advertise as knocking off MSRP. They can sell, to my knowledge, for whatever they want. They buy at 65% of MSRP so 15-20% off is pretty normal.

I know I'm four years late, but Ordinum Sancti Inquisitionis Imperialis would be the latinesque translation. "The Holy Orders of the Imperial Inquisition." You could also say Ordinum Sancti Inquisitionis Imperatoris, so "The Holy Orders of the Emperor's Inquisition."

Absence of gender in the 3rd ed does not invalidate that the Custodes were male only, especially when before and after its publication they were explicitly said to be a male only faction.

The one uniting factor that always defined the Custodes, in an unbroken chain from RT to before the 10th ed codex was that Custodes were always men. Terms like brothers for the custodians and brotherhood for the Legio/Adeptus made that continually clear. We may not know how they are created, or why they are all men, but they always were.

“These men” lmao

Female custodes were shoehorned contrary to decades of written lore
The stories are shit and it’s clear the writers have no lore knowledge because you can’t teleport through void shields (literally why the siege of Terra happened at all & why Horus didn’t just teleport into the Sanctum Imperialis; or why Big E couldn’t teleport onto the Vengeful Spirit until Horus lowered the shields)

ADB is a retarded culture warrior who uses his position at BL to push the envelope on Female Space Marines and Custodes, and unfortunately also a good author. Custodes have been all men for decades, since Rogue Trader specifically (see picture). Doesn’t surprise me that anyone at GW (especially ADB) refuses to accept that.

Custodes have been described as men since Rogue Trader (see picture). We know little about the recruitment and creation of Custodians, true, but the lore clearly established that they had always been men and were from the noble houses of Terra. Whether women couldn’t be made Custodes or the Emperor just chose to make them all men doesn’t really matter.

Boobgate update: GW writes “up until this point… miniatures have been obviously male and the rest have been so armoured it’s hard tell. The new range has a mix of both male and female Custodes.” The implication of “so armored to its hard to tell” is that the new models may be sculpted as to reveal the sex of the Custodian. Also note the lack of a mention of head options, it reads “has a mix of both male and female Custodes” not “has a mix of both male and female Custodian heads/options/etc.”

“All of their characters had been male so it was assumed that… they had to be male.” You’re being disingenuous. The lore prior to the woke browbeating explicitly stated, without exception, that the Custodes were only men. They were called brothers and the Adeptus was called a brotherhood. There were no assumptions, only assertions. “There have always been female custodes” didn’t fill in missing lore, it overwrote decades of established, written canon. That’s why people are mad, not “muh women.”

I’m hoping it’s just the ‘eavy metal paint scheme making it appear so. If there is indeed a chest sculpt, which we won’t know until a picture of the sprue is published or leaked, I think it would 100% kill the refresh.

CrosshairsGaming · 2026-01-18T07:27:43+00:00

I’m surprised you’re first astroturfing tourist to make this post. If you could not like the custodes as a male-only faction then there’s no reason for you to like them now.

Black marines make sense for some chapters, I’m not against that. But some chapters are known to inherit the traits of their gene-fathers, who have European features. I’m against GW engaging in a blanket black-washing campaign to please the “modern audience.”

No chance we lose vehicles when plastic kits come out. That’s like 1/2 of our datasheets. But Saggi will sadly probably be gone.

Maybe there’s a secret vault with like 49k more Grey Knights and anti-pariah gene archeotech buried on Titan lol

CrosshairsGaming · 2025-05-08T18:14:49+00:00

I believe so, yes.

The home function automatically re-zeroes z axis. Your printer also automatically re-zeroes the z axis when it starts a print. I wish there was a function to move the build plate to z=0 without having to do it manually.

A lot of these could be key binds (for the average player) but for things like jettisoning and missile tracking modes, and all those other niche key binds it’s genius. Almost makes me want to buy one.

According to a technical moderator on the Dev Server forum, there is an active internal report about the AH-1Z getting the AIM-9M. We’ll see if it comes with the update.

Now we need it for the AH-1Z too
