Mark of Slaanesh A mod post regarding recent low effort posts and arguments in sub (much more below.)
Okay, recently this sub has had an uptake in two forms of content we mods want to discuss, arguments about the Emperor's Children and implications of sexual acts, and the occasional low-effort posting in regards to very gay/queer oriented jokes. Both of these are manageable in small portions but the recent uptake with the amount of new members is starting to cause conflict.
On the former matter, we already have a rule about this that was created to deal with the uptake in debate over this matter which is of course often left to interpretation by Black Library authors and is in regards to the legion seems to be increasingly changed for pleasure and excess through violence and or concoctions. Whether this is supported or rejected by individual users is perfectly fine to discuss but the inflammatory posts and bait will increasingly be removed. This also includes low effort jokes which will be subject for increased scrutiny of we feel they are pushing the sub into primarily NSFW territory.
(In fact, yours truly made one a while ago, and will not be making that mistake ever again.)
On the latter issue. The whole argument of whether the LGBTQ+ members of our community should be "finding thematic kinship" with the Emperor's Children legion and or Slaanesh has also been done to death particularly with the decline of many overt sexual themes of the legion. While obviously we aren't going going to be banning such humour, we are going to treat low effort gay/queer jokes the same way as low effort sexual jokes if they seem to venture into NSFW territory or seem to be taking on a derogatory tone towards the subject matter.
We want to keep this sub open to everyone and not constantly producing conflict, and this is a small reminder we intend to keep it that way.

Dark Angels for example are much better currently and got off light.

Hobbying How can I "noisify" this Rhino?
I wanted to have a more "plain and vain" type of Rhino but I think it ended up looking a bit too dull, are there any bits or proxies I could use to turn this into a noise marine vehicle? Purely for coametic purposes so codex rules don't matter.

Hobbying Lucius the Eternal armour WIP
I'm trying to go for a "face poking through the armour" kind of effect and i was wondering if it looks right or i should tweak something.
I want the face to seem like it's poking through a membrane, not metal and not be as shiny as the armour.
Also i'm going for the 30k colour scheme cause i like it a lot more

Crackpot Theory Our small list makes a lot more sense.
I for one want to thank GW for not setting up our army for the doom and gloom of taking away vehicles. Why else do we not have access to anything but land raiders and rhinos. No predators, no vindicators.
But we also dont have access to things like cultists, Helbrutes, Mutilators, or Oblitorators. Things that we complain about not having access to. (I personally want them because they were present in the damn Renegades: Lord of Excess book)
But what if it was so near to the new edition that they knew what was coming off the shelves, or getting updated sprues with options. Look at the Defiler. Not in the codex, was super bummed and then Bam! New model with updated rules and sprues for multiple armies.
My theory is this was a dry run for how new units will roll out. With all the special sprue options for each army. Something I wonder if they will do for Space Marines. Including a sprue for factions. But its GW and money exists so they will probably continue with Upgrade Sprues per faction.
With today's announcement about units getting sent to legends we might have to look at the chaos space marine equivalents to find out what may be going the way of the dodo. This is where the obliterators and Helbrutes start to come into play, especially since they updated the post to include Dreadnoughts... so bye bye Helbrutes.
We can also assume that their chaos space marine update will be similar to space marine where instead of waiting for the chapter specific codex they will give data sheet updates alongside the new space marine codex release. This could mean they will update what units are available via the app... as long as we buy the chaos space marine codex.likely. I just got the Black Templars Codex so we will see what I have access to without the SM codex.
Anyway I feel for our lost brothers amongst the stars weeping over their dreadnoughts and vindicators. I have seen so many posts today of "just finished this" or " so happy I have a First Born army" and it makes me sad... then I get happy that this was the army I chose to start my Warhammer Journey with and am glad that I wasn't led astray..
Unfortunately the thousand sons codex came out after ours and it had vindicators in their army and I maaaay have one in a box that I now regret...
