Modern WH40K takes itself mostly seriously, but I loved Rogue Trader art because it was that kind of Robocop level cynicism that's awesome.

[@TheUndert0ker]

“Filthy ultramarines” 10/10 delivery on that line 😂

[@aaronlaughter6471]

The early days of 40K (or Rouge Trader era) is so weird and fun.

[@Dwumper]

Love me some beaky marines.

[@echothegecko2875]

11:41 I think the helmet they're basing it on is the burganet or a sallet. They both have that back of the neck part, and it fits the guard, considering how many fantasy games I've seen where the town guards have something similar in design.

[@Warmaker01]

0:45 If you do a search for "Space Marine Rogue Trader Chapter Color" you'll see 2 pages from the Rogue Trader rulebook showing what the standards were for all those markings on power armor meant. There were specific markings for veterans, sergeants, veteran sergeants, lieutenant, captain. There were even shoulder pad stripes for enlisted and patterns for officers, as well as an icon for what weapon that Space Marine was issued. It was far more sophisticated than things became since 2nd edition which was way more streamlined and easier to hand paint. Hell, in Rogue Trader era, the service studs on Space Marine foreheads meant 10 years service per and not 100 in today's 40k.

Impeccable taste. From armour marks to movies to music. Simply perfect.

"We are Flaming Dragon!"

[@kevindiaz7710]

Brings back so many memories

[@Oldhammerandtongs]

Yes! Love this era, such brilliant artwork. And space marines tagging themselves with graffiti is bad ass!

[@MrTyp00n]

The first Eldar designs you showed are now called Corsairs, and yes I play them and yes their paint scheme is inspired by the RT colour schemes, although I go for teal and warlock purple.

[@lb7564]

Got stuck on the mushroom part, never realised it could be uncommon or nonexistent in other countries 😅, fly agaric are extremely common in Sweden.

[@bluemilkalienmonster522]

We need to hear more from Mrs. Snake Works

[@kevh1287]

I'm going to disagree with you on MK III, love MK III :) But VI is definitely cool.

[@maxbrandt6]

Here is an idea inspired by that artwork of an alien mushroom, a 40k game set on a world with lots of mold and giant fungus' growing all about like a forest. It would take some planning and work, but it would make for really cool gaming terrain! A mushroom forest on an alien world, any models without helmets will have to deal with the effects of spores, someone has to make this!

[@asdf9890]

13:33 is Amanita Muscaria (yes, fly-agaric) I believe. I've seen one, well I purchased a dried one. 😅

[@SetllaFelix]

Love doesn't make the world go round, love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

Sarah ran from the serial killer holding a jug of milk.

[@TheElevenbit]

I think the writing on SMs shoulder pad is "Flamingo"

[@theinstantnoodle9628]

Flaming Deth.

[@Hateful_Psycho]

Flaming Dad.

[@CaptainPrincess]

the neck mullet thing on the imperial army helmets is in reference to a real thing I dont know what its called but all the way back to the roman days their helmets often had neck protection like that, and likely several other civilizations had similar ideas so whatever it might be called it is atleast a legitimate armor concept

True silence is the rest of the mind; it is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment.

[@BVargas78]

Make sure to watch the extended cuts over theatrical for lord of the rings movies. The two towers in particular benefits from the extra scenes.

[@horselats]

old eldar design remind me of fish

[@maxbrandt6]

In the Rogue Trader era and before Battlefleet Gothic Eldar starships did indeed look like fish, you see them in one of those illustrations from the 1st edition rulebook, the one where the Eldar troopers have dragonfly wings. Oddly enough, in Codex Titanicus those were called Swooping Hawks, honest!

[@jaysunbodaysun3302]

Do you pull these images of the web or do you have the hardcopy of them?

[@LeviHawthorne]

Sometimes it is better to lose and do the right thing than to win and do the wrong thing.

[@CoreyGuy-p3q]

Failure doesn't mean you are a failure it just means you haven't succeeded yet.

[@subcynic]

I made a version of that tank at 7:12

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Nice! Where can we see it?

[@subcynic]

If you’re like me and love the old WH40k art, then do yourself a favor and check out the incredible grim, dark art work for “Trench Crusade“ by Mike Francina. Absolutely amazing in a twisted H. R. Giger type of way.

[@MrMaximkozin]

Fellowship is the best

[@ameliaclark1917]

I don't remember Bruce on the Generation Game, it was Jim Davidson by the time I was old enough to remember watching it

Karen realized the only way she was getting into heaven was to cheat.

[@mrsplitfoot23]

Our silly little epic saga about one familys drama screwing the known galaxy harder than the skywalkers has ancient frescos now!

[@SpadeRZA]

11:40 they look like these silver french firefighter helmets.

[@lnutt677]

Toast of London did a Bruce Forsythe joke where a proud African woman got botched plastic surgery and looked exactly like Bruce Forsythe. Toast kept making her feel self-conscious by blurting out Forsythe's catchphrases.

[@pallidhand9756]

1:17 "Flaming Diddy"

[@theprincipalofficer_1]

The crimson fist should always be first and the filth imperial fist a faking it successor chapter, forget the sucky stuck up ultra smurfs.

[@Erectus666]

Flaming diddler

[@kevindiaz7710]

Stripes on helmets did mean rank, shoulder pads also had rank markings or graffiti slogans of your own dirty git minds

[@ExecratedPlaysGaming]

Not seeing any female Custodes in any of that art, but tourists on Reddit keep trying to tell me they were always there.

[@temporary_error_3264]

Original

[@georgedutton4700]

Omg, it's not that big a deal. James workshop made a controversial change in lore. They do it literally all the time.

[@ICECAPPEDSKY]

@@georgedutton4700if you want 40K to get the Star Wars treatment then sure let it happen. They change the lore all the time so who cares

[@ExecratedPlaysGaming]

@@georgedutton4700 No, they made a crappy change to the lore that detracts from the already established lore. And they did it to try to attract people like you, who will never care about the hobby and will abandon it after you've helped to destroy it.

[@CodeRed001]

​@@georgedutton4700and they lied and gaslight their fans by saying they always existed. It's a big deal. They are pushing that female custodes crap hard. Shoving it into the new Tithes show and minifigs and nobody buying that crap.

[@Mike-Wolfe]

Flaming cheetos

[@Retrofun69]

Not a single female custodes in more than 30 years. BUT THEY WERE THERE ALL THE TIME WE SWEAR GUYS! I quit the tabletop game after that. Not a cent more.

[@CaptainPrincess]

Good riddance, crybaby The hobby seldom needs fragile snowflakes that piss and shit at the sight of women in their manly man game of toy soldiers
