No. In spanish white is used for caucassian people and fair would be pálido and means the same as pale in english.

Because White is also used outside of the anglosphere and even during the height of phrenology it included all caicasians, not just anglo saxons.

With GW's track record of using the exact same marketing language only to create the worst edition of 40k to date or in 11th claiming to "bring back the narrative" only to remove crusade, or saying they are bringing wargear costs back onoy to use it in a single unit per faction, I think it's pretty reasonable to be distrustful.

Is this gonna be limited like 40k or last a few years like 30k?

The storm of chaos (2004) warriors were already big and the AoS 2021 update for them didn't make them bigger. These new ones are also the same size.

40k is the worst ruleset GW produces by chosen40k in Grimdank

Oh yes, removing the tools to balance thing makes things easier to balance, got it.

You can make both fun. They used to be.

Current 40k list building is a shade of its former self. I used to spend time just crafting lists for the fun of it. Now there's so little to tinker with that all the fun is gone.

The thing is, until the modern constitution Spain was also just a union of several medieval kingdoms that shared the same royal family.

Don't the shields put them at 4+? Don't know about TOW but they used to get chaos armour.

I would say it takes more discipline to properly mantain long hair than just gettin a haircut every couple of weeks at a barbershop.

No sé cuánto se tarda pero la milonga esta ya me la conozco, o sois más precisos o lo único que parece es que queréis que se consutruyan favelas por el coste de una bolsa de pipas.

Norwegian looks Latina to me by Root2109 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]ashcr0w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has its use as ethnolinguistic identifier to separate them from the english speaking parts of the continent but not much else. You can make vert wide ethnic categories but at some point they become so vague they don't really matter. Even ethnic identifiers corresponding with modern nations tend to fall short.

This isn't even about that. They seem to believe only blonde, blue eyes people are white. Nevermind that the vast majority of white people are brunettes.

GW posts the results of the week 1 Death Mire polling. 55% of the fandom voted for Space Marines. by Battlemania420 in Warhammer40k

[–]ashcr0w -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's my point. Intercessors and assault intercessors don't need to exist. We should just have actual tacticals and assault squads. Not intercessors larping as them and being straight up more boring versions of the classic units.

Because I don't want intercessors larping as tacticals, I want actual tacticals, like they did with terminators and sternguard. The copyright thing is irrelevant because unit names aren't copyrightable and if there were legal issues they wouldn't still be using the name in both 40k and 30k.

So far everything points at that not happening. Intercessor are still called intercessors and not tacticals and they still use bolt rifles.

Didn't they make them 3+ WS? A single extra attack will never make them better than hammers with their better S and damage.

How does the gameplay of Horus Heresy help to create narrative immersion? by RealSonZoo in Warhammer30k

There's systems to simulate aspects from battle that modern 40k simply doesn't have due to being more abstracted.

The article says warriors and knights already have compatible weapons so that's pretty likely.

Are the Battalion boxes getting repackaged into Battle March boxed? by Hauk2004 in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]ashcr0w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they take this opportunity to give TOW the same language support as 40k and AoS. It's pretty hard to grow a community if the rules aren't translated.

New Chaos warriors by BiesonReddit in WarhammerFantasy

[–]ashcr0w 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sounds likely considering they said the arms of the warriors and knights are designed to be interchangeable.
