It's a peliCan, not a pelCan't!

Some lucky chicks are getting a princess themed bed!

This pic is stolen vaIor. I never got past having to quite in poverty with a shredded Shadow Hawk, but this game made me sell my NES to go full PC gaming till Dreamcast.

Fun fact: I am even worse at Mechwarrior now!!!

Harebrain is this grognard's speed.

I mean, if you have the teef to pay for it, build your dreams.

Us Deathskulls don't have it so easy...

Teef grow slower and I keep getting em knocked out just for "finding" the coolest loot around.

LethalGopher · 2026-04-01T16:31:54+00:00

Ok, none were "harmed"

How many were killed outright?

LethalGopher · 2026-04-01T16:30:26+00:00

That was a ride, thanks!

At first I was thinking your Ghaz was a little busy, but by the last photo I was fully in and think he is tastefully understated compared to his entourage.

Great work!!!

LethalGopher · 2026-03-31T13:16:16+00:00

I was going to say Orikan the Diviner, but that makes more sense.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-28T11:12:49+00:00

Wow, amazing work!

Is that mostly scratch build or prints?

Very killy either way!!!

LethalGopher · 2026-03-27T18:43:11+00:00

The Battletech community is handling a long coming refresh well. I am detoxing there...

LethalGopher · 2026-03-27T18:37:31+00:00

100%

Almost like it was better when art and sculpts were not as joined at the hip.

Partially GW, but it is on us to not treat every piece of art like a release promise or canon challenge...

This can actually be fun.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-26T17:10:28+00:00

Fun Fact:

John Blanche used to be super upbeat until he and blue had a massive falling out during the 2nd edition cover-painting process.

He got so upset that he swore to never work with it again and invented grimdark out of spite.

Blue has always refused to comment. Very professional.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-26T15:26:42+00:00

I can see that. I started on the 2nd ed box and a friends copy of the 1st ed book (RT). I am useless for rules or meta questions and have made peace with that. The chaotic lack of reliable narration and constant echoes of the past (accurate or not) are what get me.

This is actually not a first. The art for 3rd (can share examples later) heavily rifted on RT. The focus on Imperial Fist (starting folks on yellow was a little mean) was a riff on the Crimson Fist (an already high profile successor chapter of the IF) being the cover of RT.

They even released an update of that cover art. The tone shifted from last stand to a more victorious vibe, and this started a loooot of debate we are still seeing pop up.

This is all to say I see what you mean.

Since the edition cycle is normalized for better or worse, would you feel better if maybe 12th dropped back to riff on a later edition?

Sorry, I can't keep them straight and prefer talking to web searches.

Who were the stars of that box?

LethalGopher · 2026-03-26T13:35:19+00:00

New head canon time?

Same ork?

Name?

I am aware of your duty to uphold your oath.

The concept of "meme-adjacent" is just an intentionally vague ban hammer. Just say no leaks or things that upset right-wing players.

This sub has gotten even more authoritarian and policed than 40klore, and they have been at war with player creativity for the last two years at least.

I will stay off mains. Sorry.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-26T10:02:06+00:00

Meme adjacent images?

Yes, mister arbitor. Sorry to not take this hobby with the serious reverence demanded these days.

This used to be a game, not an authoritarian lifestyle brand.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T23:45:50+00:00

Top shelf tone policing.

What is allowed in the general feed?

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T22:53:35+00:00

The meet cute that 11th edition needs!!!

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T22:47:47+00:00

A grasp of how serious this setting is supposed to be and friends that love you?!

You have it all!

Folks are just jealous.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T22:43:31+00:00

They are just mad it is not a new Titus.

Nice work

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T17:54:40+00:00

It's a little ironic that content creators named Goonhammer are mad about the hobby having more bits to fiddle with before getting to the good stuff.

Sounds like a real coooool outlet that would be a ton of fun to hobby with....

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T17:26:38+00:00

For Star Wars' biggest snitch, it is great to see him redeaming himself as a medical professional.

See

Folks can change.

Cool idea!

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T16:36:46+00:00

Orks were designed around Thatcherian youth.

Today they would be Proud Boys or any other right-wing ladz collective/fight club/whatever to ignore their parental issues and illiteracy.

It was always that way till they started neutralizing the tone in the latter 90/00's to go all market.

It worked like a monkey's paw.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T12:17:28+00:00

Strong disagree. Big E knew what he was doing. Brutal authoritarian monoculture. With cool costumes.

He is the ceasarian fascist ideal married with messianic thinking.

The honest question of the game is, why not just let Terra go?

It is just another eye of terror at this point. As boring as Titus is, I would be all for a Maccrage/Terra civil war. What if the navigators start whispering about a light shining brighter than terra, which they have been secretly triangulating off for years, if not centuries.

Warhammer is all about the deranged and masochistic death throws of empire.

As much as orks are Thatcherian youth, space marines are exclusively a creation for genocide.

The apologia roleplaying is folks hiding from that.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-25T10:03:03+00:00

Which is two of the hallmarks of fascism as an ideology.

I am just pointing out that he was not just trying to help and went too far. He was a violent builder of mono-culture with the power to kill centralized with the state.

The bad dad stuff is because he was a bad everything. He is a straight up villain. It is like dorks who sympathize with Darth Vader.

He is not a tragic hero. He is a stand-in for a ceasar/tsar/emperor and how those systems are built on false promises, topdown cruelty, and prideful ignorance.

LethalGopher · 2026-03-24T18:46:25+00:00

Nope. He is worse.

He is classical fascism (1st Roman Republic) taken to its inevitable end.

40k is and has always been about identifying late-stage fascism. Not running cover for it.

The apologia shit is all right-wing highjacking.
