- In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only The Message. Well, it was only a matter of time before they came for Warhammer. Games Workshop's recent decision to alter the lore of their game universe has opened the floodgates, and there will be demands for more. Believe that.

"The rewards of tolerance are treachery and betrayal" . It's an actual quote from Warhammer.
Completely true
Apathy is a corruption, a fetid rot, a festering Blight and a sin, tolerance is the gateway to it. We are in the Warhammer universe, just watch the Alex Jones-40k mashups, to see it.

My favorite part is the least fleshed out groups are the sisters of silence and battle sisters, but instead of fleshing them out or doing anything with them they’re just ignored. They had a lore way to do it and just didn’t care
They don't want to build they want to destroy
Well tbf they were kind of neglected by the fans despite having some good lore
@@ProdByCari would this not have been the perfect chance to rectify that?
@@sicarius4372 My guess is they were considering it but in terms of a successful marketing campaign it would be risky. Usually, companies try and take advantage of their more commercially popular products.. and at the end of the day these are products. They were prob trying to capitalize off the new show coming out and obviously wanted some female cast. so they had to retcon some shit but did it in the worst way possible.
The sisters who?
No need to change, the "modern audience" is represented anyway in W40k: as cultists of Slaanesh.
I would agree, but comparing “modern audience” to cultist of slanesh is inaccurate.
Cultist of slanesh have some decency compared to those idiots

And please remember, that GW is working towards this show for several years now. What many people have forgotten is, that GW went after content creators, who produced warhammer content. When Syama Pederson started to publish the Astartes series, GW saw how widely accepted it could be, and started to send out cease and desist orders to content creators, threatening to take legal actions, if they did not remove their content. Then, they offered them to work for GW (but had to sign NDAs, so nobody can talk about it). The content creators faced a choice to either join GW or stop their entire channel and waste all the work they had done for it. Btw. Syama Pederson did join GW, but he does not talk about it, as he is not allowed to.
So, looking at how vehemently GW is forcing Warhammer to go mainstream, I think they will do anything that Amazon demands from them, resulting in the total destruction of their lore and everything that made Warhammer great.
Its been brewing for years now, GW has never been a consumer friendly company- constantly attacking fan content, putting out statements meant to be 'signaling for inclusivity' while simultaneously shouting at anyone who disagreed with the message to gtfo- this was inevitable.
This...👆
If it weren't for GW's narrow-minded thinking and if their IQ were even slightly above room temperature, then half the gaming industry would consist of Warhammer.
You can see the virtue signallers circling, posting the same 2 or 3 I'll informed arguments and getting the same number of likes per comment, the arguments being:
1) 40K lore changes all the time, they then cite something from the 80's when it was Rouge Trader,
2) It's a small change what does it matter, obvious counter, if it doesn't why make the change
3) This is a bit of an over reaction against GW from the fans for a minor thing, which makes it clear they know nothing and are just here for the controversy, anyone who has even the smallest bit of knowledge about GW would never White Knight for them.
So I have to agree, Gatekeep or loose what you love...

Besides the fact that these people would be executed for heresy and treachery towards the emperor of mankind in the same universe, it is so obvious that they know nothing about the lore.
There is so many powerful female roles in the universe, some of them exceeding a space marine in power by large i.e psyker, inquisitors, rogue traders and so on. Or even the Sisters of Battle, which maybe are not equal to space marines in sustainablility but equal in fighting power.

@@yuruna1661 I think the big question we all have is, why did it need to changed? If you can't answer that, it never needed to happen. If the only reason is diversity or inclusion then most people don't really like that answer but they are too scared to speak up in fear of being called anti-whatever or some sort of phobic.
@@DistortedChrist sure ill explain my reasoning is the writers have wanted a female custodian for a while and have said so but were told no by previous higher ups and it is because they want to be more inclusive in what is effectively the perfection of humanity in service of the emperor the lore for the stodes is written the avoid the subject all together to leave this as an option other than one quote which is they were exclusively recruited from the infant sons of the nobles on terra theres is no reason for there not to be a female custodian and there is no reason for a female custodian other than that there are female nobles also so and the arguement of women are needed to make babies given how small the pool they can recruit from is doesnt even rule out every case of the potential of a female custodian it just makes them alot rarer. i dont believe people are doing it out of being phobic or anti anything tbh more protective over what they have and they dont like things changing for no reason which i understand but custodes have been written so ambiguously in the past that the are barely human let along male or female so having different pronouns occasionally doesnt really effect the army for me and does include women in the super soldiers club for once

@@cyrocloud "As GW's former head of IP Alan Merrett once explained on Facebook, "The reason there aren't female Space Marines has nothing to do with lore, or background or character of Marines. It's to do with [the] simple logistics of making miniatures and selling miniatures." In the 1980s GW sold miniatures in sets called blister packs, and as Merrett explained "the intention was that upwards of 25% of all models would be female." That didn't last because "retailers kept complaining to us that customers weren't buying the female models and could we not include any in their restocks." By the time Warhammer 40,000 was designed, GW made sure its poster boys were, well, boys to ensure they'd sell. As Merrett put it, "All the background fluff about why there are only male Marines is there to justify a commercial logistics issue."

Will probably never play the tabletop because I have no money and no one to play with in the city and country I live in, but I have read plenty of lore through the years and while I am familiar with the retcons and changes GW has done through the ages, I think they went too far NOT because of the lore change, but the way they handled their response to the community and WHY they did it, as mr.

This brings to mind how the retcon was done in the Horus Heressy when an anonymous guardsman's sacrifice is the trigger for the Emperor to defeat Horus being changed was a disservice to how this was the epitome of humanity's sacrifice as a whole, when the clear underdog would still go up there and wail on fucking Horus out of all people... our willingness to go against impossible odds in order to save what we love.... This is exactly like that. I'm pretty sure the community as a whole won't take it lying when the company spews bullshit and barefaced lies to the fans.
And believe it... GW doesn't want to make the nerds and dorks we are not consume it's products, the virtue signalers sure won't buy what they sell, as usual. Great catch there, mr. CriticalDrinker!
Y'know they retconned him right?

You got one thing wrong - custodes are not elite space marines, they are fundamentally different thing, even if it might not be obvious at the first glance. Process of creating them is different and even harder than that of space marine. Other than that, agreed completely.
I’ve really gotten into the 40k audiobooks. Horus Heresy and siege of Terra right now. The narration and voice acting is absolutely top notch.
The Cavill clip hits so hard cause Custodes was his army too. Poor man can't have anything without it being fucked with.
Selling war to women is important, some nerd tears are a small price that's worth paying.
Heck they also nerfed them bad in their new edition too.
I doubt he gives a shit about woman being in custodes lmao, the faction identity is completely unchanged.
@@Remixersoloman if you think that Henry doesn't care about the lore of the things he's invested in...I mean the dude had arguments over the portrayal of Geralt. Yeah, dude obviously doesn't care about lore.
@@Remixersoloman Warhammer has a surprising amount of realism with their ridiculous high fantasy, it's part of what makes it so great.
Females are not necessary to be space marines or custodes. Male Space Marines and Custodes have their genitalia removed, because it is also not necessary. All they need is muscle, limbs, and extra organs. The male body naturally have the advantage in muscle mass, enough said. That is why they are the Space Marines.
If a woman Space Marine existed, it would be more difficult to create and more costly. From the genital mutilation, increasing muscle growth, etc etc. Male already is winning in terms of efficiency and resources in that regard. You would just be making the woman into a man while it's already been/being genetically altered. What's the point? You realize Space Marines are basically clones of their respective Primarchs, right?
Sisters of Battles are not Space Marines, not even close. But they fit. They are literally ripped in half and used by Grey Knights, their blood is a protective layer against Daemons/Warp magic.
Anyways, if it doesn't change the faction identity then why do it? What's the actual point?
Sisters of silence are about to break their vow of silence out of sheer disappointment
Maybe they wouldn't be so forgotten by the whole fanbase if they spoke out every once in a while.

There is no fight, ever time this happens to a franchise it’s over. Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr Who, Terminator, Lord of the Rings, The Witcher, Wheel of Time, He-Man, the MCU, the list goes on and on.
Once a franchise goes full-retard it NEVER recovers.
Yup- it is a terminal illness.
You see this with gaming studios as well. Once the money comes in, its like a leash. Blackrock and Vanguard really need to be RICOed at this point.
Was the Terminator some thriving franchise before it went woke?
Spoken like a wise man. The decline is steep. Anytime a franchise sells out to the altar of woke, it’s over.
Just remember Old source books still exist and 3D printers are cheaper than Games workshop models.
I have to correct the "6 minutes" statement of the 80's. About the "generic" nature and design. It was done like that on purpose so you could make your own army. They added parts when they could produce the models.
I think it's easy to say "they hadn't designed it yet" however that wasn't correct. They had designed it, just couldn't build the models.
There are some girls who are into tabletop wargaming. But in my experience they are usually some of the most vocal on twitter and reddit about how much they hate the pandering. They aren't playing 40k DESPITE it being 40k. They're playing it BECAUSE its 40k.

Just to clarify, space marines are made using a gene seed that can’t be used on females due to hormone differences and some other lore specific stuff.
Custodians aren’t space marines, and they aren’t made with gene seeds. It’s a wholly different process that the first borne sons of nobles in Terra (40K earth) were put through.
I don’t recall anything saying the process would work on males exclusively, but it was heavily implied… until two weeks ago.
Starship Troopers, as a fan of the book I sadly say to 40K fans, welcome to the club.
Larian studio's boss said something like "investors are a plague for entertaiment".
True.
It makes sense if you think about it. Investors want everyone to be docile consumers. Artists want to present something thought-provoking, which usually requires creating a disturbance.

I have no idea, probably not out of the goodness of their hearts or to make less money though. 🤷♂️ But I’m a cynic, I think all this culture war stuff is just a smokescreen so the top can funnel more money from what’s left of the middle class.

Possibly the most well written and digestibly delivered video you have created.
Gw: "We need more women in the setting!"
Fans: "OK how about updating the sisters of battle, or silence, or the guard, or giving the assassins actual rules, or taking the Harlequinns out of the freezer?"
GW: "Don't you know the Emperor was always an equal opportunity boss for his elite guard?"
Eldar, Dark Eldar, and Tau as well.
But they did that, and there were people bitching and moaning about women in the Guard too.
@leonardomarquesbellini I never had an issue with women in the guard, per se. I do have an issue with the narrative that every female character seems to be better than the average male in the books/lore/etc. It also annoys me as someone who served to see a bunch of physically incapable nerds say "women can be soldiers too." Having seen it first hand, no.
The reason the female space marines thing bothers me so much is that I know what a male dominated space war is, and for good reason. It is insane to deny that, and deny men a brotherhood.
GW seems to have forgotten this part of the lore: _"It is known that ALL Custodians begin their lives as the infant SONS of the noble houses of Terra. It is a mark of incredible prestige to surrender one's child to this most glorious of callings within the Imperium, and many notable clans amongst the Terran aristocracy have willingly given up almost entire generations of newborn sons to earn it."_ - *Codex - Adeptus Custodes 8th edition*
"Custodes are basically as popular as space marines, let's stick the women in there and gaslight people on twitter"
“The rewards of tolerance are treachery and betrayal.” This quote has ceased to be satirical, and has become reality.
It always was, people were just too foolish to realize...
That's literally the point of satire. To exaggerate reals things to a comical level to instill a lesson, parable, or warning. Parody is just exaggerated comedy for the sake of being funny. People really do need to learn the difference.
"We've always been at war with East-Asia"
Nice one.

The regressives on the Left have always been included in 40k lore. I always thought they were the Tyranids.
You are confused my friend. Wokeism is a centrist thing. Leftists don't care about your personal identity politics, your personal wants are completely that, personal, leftists want a strong and armed working class that makes sure everyone who works has a home and food on the table for their family. What you want to be called is completely immaterial, what colour your hair is or who you want to have sex with is personal, and if you keep your personal stuff at home and do your job then the actual left could not care one shit, one way or the other.

@@entspannter They are vile. You can almost guarantee that they don't even play the game.
@@entspannter What if you just recharacterize it from women super soldiers to super soldiers that no longer fit into a gender because someone went and completely rewrote most of their genetic code?
Custodes are recruited as babies. By the end of the process, they lack any discernable traits towards any specific gender beyond, like... Their jawline.
