there is a canon lore story of an ork named taktikus

people keep trying to tell me modern warhammer lore is crap and old stuff was better

anyhow i'm reading about the pervert class for dnd in the first issue of white dwarf this morning

aw yes a game based on starship troopers... the book
how old is ffg anyway
be warned
lol
ever had a hard time naming something cc @Supervinh47
looooooooooooooooooool @DarkestKale IS SO GONNA REGRET BEING ALL LIKE YOU NEED TO READ WHITE DWARF BUMS
a weregamer
there sure was a lot of slavery in 70s wargaming
why is rapier the only weapon in quotes
i mean these are pretty good odds
they're describing an entire class and socio-economic system of birth and shit
i mean it was so obvious
alright my goal was to actually crack through these issues and hit warhammer lore fast and the alt text is slowing me down so... seeya later
i'm sorry, i need to post this

in issue #87 of white dwarf (before rogue trader released), they ran an interview with the design team (for warhammer fantasy roleplay)

it's a medieval fantasy game. white dwarf even published a little adventure to play with it, and it's just a straight fantasy game

---

fast forward to white dwarf issue 93, and the front cover is warhammer 40,000 rogue trader: full sci-fi space marines blasting everything lol

and the space dwarves? THOSE FUCKERS ARE STILL MEDIEVAL IN QUILT ARMOR AND SHIT

those poor bastards got like no sci-fi reboot till recently

no wonder the tyranids ate them

reboot space dwarves don't seem to be raging assholes tho so i feel like gw gonna spring a fast one in the future lol

turn them into every other shit faction

they're just space dwarves with functioning stcs that wanna mine shit?

stop worshipping tech as gods tho you weirdos

at first i was like oh finally a faction that can make shit

and then it turns out they just have stcs

perfect video i can potentially dig for material to annoy @DarkestKale with xD
looooooooolololol
what if i make a little quilt tabard and pin it on them
honestly the actual squat minis back then were... not suuuuuuper far from the reboot either
every time i see palatine i think palpatine
wow these old minis were... rough lololol
today is "how does ork/sob belief warp reality" day

*sobs quietly*
@worthlessbums No Bums don't do it. Buy a laser cutter and build your own!

@kaynSD @worthlessbums don't listen to Keith, Bums, Laser Cutters aren't good for this!

What you ACTUALLY want is an emulsion printer, which are hazardous and fiddly, but perfect for miniatures work!
