What's on your mind?

Game Over for Gee-Dubbs. They have maimed the golden goose:

I’m in the ‘head-cannon over official lore’ camp so I am not upset about female space marines for those that want them. Doesn’t mean I am about to change my head-cannon, but I am happy they are available for those that want them.

After all, my head-cannon for my chaos marines is that mutants are also permitted to become marines, even though my understanding is that new marines aren’t an easy thing to make.
 
GW screwed the pooch Lore wise long ago and it's only been getting worse each time a new writer comes along who doesn't know that much older stuff, so I'm not surprised that they've decided femreens are fine now.

If indeed they have decided they're fine, and it's not just a head sculpt that looks a bit feminine.

Or the other way around. i guess they don't suply make up in the space marine chapters? :)

This could be a Benny Hill sketch played at double speed. And Benny Hill plays all Sororitas.

I don't think it's an attempt to make female space marines. Given the content of the pack:

I'd argue it's meant to represent different ethnicities - making these poorly sculpted and/or painted SE Asian faces.
 
does anyone care? dont like it, dont buy it. sales/money will speak gw language for if people want this or not.

and I say that as someone with no dog in this fight, I couldnt care less, as I dont play 40k (outside of 4th ed) or any any of gw's current games except old world, bb and necromunda.
 
The Space Marines are a brotherhood. This means: No girls allowed. Plain and simple. And we live in crazy times where a lot of established settings are being turned onto the head by people with zero talent otherwise they would come up with interesting stories on their own. Rick Priestly had more innovation power than the combined effort of today´s devs.
 
I love that the passage of time has brought us into soup season again. Specifically pumpkin soup. Made a large batch of pumpkin/sweet potato soup in yesterday, and roasted some bread with it.

And on the subject of raclette, that used to be a Christmas/New Year's tradition in my family. And if it helps, I think the whole thing is from Switzerland. :)
 
My mum paid a quick visit yesterday to bring long-lost treasure from her loft/garage:

I haven't investigated yet, so not sure how complete this collection is. But I reckon I had a complete run from about #180-217 (UK).

If anyone's looking for anything in particular then let me know and I can check whether I have it.
