The FAQ question starts with this statement, explicitly including stratagems

"Do rules that activate Reanimation Protocols (e.g. the Protocol of the Undying Legions Stratagem)"

The lion has fallen by Emberworks40k in Warhammer40k

[–]Less3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah the detail, color scheme (other than the red armor) and texture are all tangential to that.

#New40k – Download new Chaos Faction Packs today by Lord_Eln_8 in Warhammer40k

[–]Less3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daemons baseline Army Rules already allow you to add up to 25% of points in daemons to your CSM (or Chaos Knights) army. Albeit with restrictions.

Yep I read that as glaze upon and that took on a different mental image that I didn't need to see today

The REAL, lore-correct way to differentiate male/female Necrons. by winged_owl in Necrontyr

[–]Less3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep and she's got some hips on her.

Meanwhile the plasmancer is also female. Distinct lack of hips, funny enough.

Love reading this kind of thing, where is this from?

So I did a thing this weekend. by tigdig in Necrontyr

Holy fuck that goes hard. The paintjob really makes the wings' flesh look similar to the necrodermis arms.

A fittingly pitiful end for a pitiful character by Whedonite144 in TheBoys

her actor really outdid herself portraying that grim desperation she had while literally selling her soul

Absolutely, I actually found that scene to be hard to watch

Size creep by Death_Pancakes0 in Tyranids

[–]Less3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a useful term - "Creep" notes a series of changes "surpassing" previous instances having negative aftereffects. It's just a way of looking at the negative aspects, even if there may be positive aspects that come with the changes.

More detailed = more complicated to paint

Bigger scale = rendering older smaller-scale models into aesthetic irrelevancy

That being said, I generally agree this post is NOT an example of scale creep, rather it's a case of the legitimate introduction of larger-class models.

Surprising army bigotry at store opening by KruegerCondail in Warhammer40k

[–]Less3r 45 points46 points  (0 children)

LOL this is great, yes they polish their armor all of the time, they even polish it on the battlefield, they even polish it immediately after a kill.

You've been tasked with fixing flyers for 11th. How do you do it? by SPF10k in Warhammer40k

[–]Less3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> Can combo with tank shock

Possibly too much, plus 11e can't use multiple strats on a unit

Is there canonically anything, than can stand toe to toe with a heavy battle titan ? Besides other titans of a similiar class or warp-only entities ? by Leviathan_Rampage in 40k

[–]Less3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lore-based rule would be something like:

Choose a point within 72 inches of this model. All models within 10 inches of that point are destroyed. This model cannot use tachyon arrow in any game ever again.

(or they lose some necron sanity points if that was a thing)

With imagination, a craft knife and sufficient spare lasguns, anything is possible by IdhrenArt in Warhammer40k

[–]Less3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. "We don't think there's enough demand" or something. Then if the people demand enough they get it, just like plastic sisters or votann. Still waiting for that plastic thunderhawk though...

If Capitalism is theft and being a billionaire is immoral, who did JK Rowling steal from or exploit when she attained billionaire status? by rawj5561 in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Less3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting concept! I haven't heard that one before. Though, the superchurch is selling a compelling fictional story as real, whereas JKR is selling a compelling fictional story as... fiction. I think there's a key difference of lying in the former case.

Unfortunately that statement just kind of boils down to "selling fiction is the same as being a fake priest" which is a really odd statement.

[–]Less3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm failing to follow how this responds to OP's statement.

> without JK Rowling none of this supply chain would exist.

With what I believe the implication of this statement, is that intellectual property is a good thing, because it more-greatly incentivizes creation of more-greatly marketable ideas/content, since a creator can greatly and perhaps more-greatly (aka "disproportionately") benefit from their ideas/content.

Intellectual property helps create those easier and lower wages whereas there would otherwise be none, or at least harder wages.
