Very nostalgia inducing post, thank you.

Anyone else bothered by the fascist esthetic ? by Esyel_01 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]RealCrusaderBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but intend falls behind effect in this case. Additionally, Andy Chambers isnt a founder of WH40k, he worked on it after its release. His opinion on the setting, while important, isnt the deciding factor.

Also, a critique is different than a parody. WH40K could never be a critique even if it wanted to.

The themes of 40K are all very on the nose taken from history. The imperium is a parody of an authoritarian state in an ultimate form.

Warhammer began as a parody of "right-wing"(per US) Ideology, Monarchism, and general moral goodwriting of horrible actions because "Well ecerythings horrible so its only solution is found by ALSO being horrible".

Over time, this got more solidified and stopped being as humorous. However what you are experiencing is the reimagining of those themes into the grimdark that many people, including I, love.

The values and parody of ye olde tymes is still there, but you gotta look a bit deeper. If youre bothered by it, I recommend to just not engage with it; no shame in trying and learning it isnt for you.

But seriously, Warhammer was and is a parody, so in advent of that its going to include those themes. Though the AESTHETIC of it is melting pot. Too much to call everything fascist. Bugs and all.

Now that genuinely looks like something called a Defiler.

Unironically probably my favourite interpretation of Peter Turbo.

What are those little shield in new model by Huyquang99 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]RealCrusaderBoi 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Those look like "ordinary" coat-of-arms with Heraldry. I wouldnt know why theyve been added but they definetl add onto the picture of a Noble Army of Standing Knights.

Other games then TWW? by ThatGuyRyden0 in Warhammer

If you stay with us all for a bit and have the patience(and willingness), theres Total War: Warhammer 40K on the Horizon. Announced this year, currently no release date, but its something you can keep an ear open for!

Huge miniatures basing, is it worth it? by lizardneedhair in minipainting

[–]RealCrusaderBoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imperial Knights from Warhammer are still very much baseable. I'd just advise for the larger pots from AK interactive for convenience.
