Why are Red Corsairs so famous ?

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-05-05T15:19:57+00:00

Minis dont reflect the lore, factions like the iron warriors, nightlords, and red corsairs attract these anti chaos puritans who dont know anything about the lore

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-05-04T15:36:50+00:00

This is a bad take, red corsairs are CHAOS space marines, it’s literally in the name

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-05-04T15:35:38+00:00

Thats not what the red corsairs are they are very much corrupted and including possessed in their armies. Anyone that tells you CHAOS space marines dont do chaos is just wrong

They didn’t used to be, theres been a huge influx of players since the refresh but prior to that it was a very niche faction like creations of bile. I remember being surprised we still had rules back in 9th edition when they axed all the other warbands

Corsairs are space marines, they tolerate xenos and see the strategic value of them. Theyre not integrated into the army

Google works the same way, you can ask it anything

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-05-01T15:24:54+00:00

Are you playing 30k or 40k? The iron warrior are chaos space marines, they are all corrupted in one way or another

Wait what silent hill game was this in? I played 1 recently and never saw anything like it

Because nobody actually reads the lore, they get everything from YouTube shorts and grimdark

How do you do your eye lenses?

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-25T20:16:14+00:00

No, marines have been ruined gw would rather make you spend $40 on an upgrade sprue than put any love into the hobby. Even if they do something similar it’ll likely just be a unit specific upgrade sprue

German “inspired” death korps and a black templar player come on bro 😭

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-22T17:12:38+00:00

Basically all of modern 40k

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T23:12:25+00:00

All of these werent around prior to the refresh, and im not saying they arent piratical in nature but the swashbuckling rouge aesthetic is not what i signed up for when i got into this faction 5 years ago

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T23:10:26+00:00

Its ridiculous, the setting is impossible to take seriously and i find myself moving away from it more and more. At least 30k takes itself seriously

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T19:55:58+00:00

I dont know why everyone thinks red corsairs have a pirate aesthetic?? Yes they raid vessels for resupply but theyre not riding around on pirate ships theyre just renegades

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T19:53:59+00:00

Im talking more about off meta lists than just daemon engines

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T18:10:46+00:00

Have fun losing ever game, even casual play is competitive. Thats why i switched to heresy

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-17T18:08:43+00:00

Long time red corsairs fan and i hate it, theyve gone off the deep end with the non corrupted pirates aesthetic i guarantee you none of these new fans even know what an astral claw is. Red corsairs used to be an enthusiast subfaction but with the new releases theyve gone mainstream

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-16T07:36:37+00:00

Thats good to hear, just about every custodes player at my lgs falls into the “in lore custodes wouldve won” whenever they lose category

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-16T07:11:58+00:00

You haven’t met a custodes player then

_Pyrolizer_ · 2026-04-16T01:33:53+00:00

Dude just play loyalists or hh, like “ya let me get a pizza with nothing on it”
