this is AMAZING I want one to make Yarrick's Special Boy Wagon

"Commissar Yarrick and Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Thraka", a black and white art piece from the first-to-third edition era of warhammer 40k. It depicts the first version of Yarrick, with lobster claw power claw, riding on top of a rhino which has heavy bolters in its pintle mounts for some reason and a screaming eagle with pointy teeth in its beak painted on the front plates.

Another way of looking at it is flipping the templates and comparing. Now, 2.5 inches is selected solely because the actual ratio of 2.6 something is weird and bad to worth with, so the flipped bigger template reaches slightly further. That's... fine? I think?

A descriptive image of (upper) small and old base VS template size in warhammer 2nd edition, vs the proposed new one below it. Each one has a "base" (in green), separated from another base by 2 inches (upper) or 2.5 inches (lower), and a template centered above it.

The second illustrative image "flips" the template once (by copying the graphic) to show that it will cover the second model partially, not exactly in the precisely same ratio, but very close.

inkscape to the rescue i suppose. I think tweaking the coherency might be in order, or adjusting the new template for that arbitrary coherency, but... it's not far off!

an example image of resizing templates to base sizes in warhammer second edition, templates being represented by black circles, bases by green. The notable element is the bigger black circle, scaled up to roughly match the base size of modern miniatures.

A comparison graphic of 25mm bases and 1 inch blast template for warhammer 40.000 second edition, vs a proposed upsizing of the template for modern 32mm bases. The "coherency" (a distance models in a squad are allowed to be from each other) is 2 inches in the old version, and the proposed upscale assumes 2 and a half inches. It's not an exact match, but it's close.

you ever think about how, in the second edition 40k codex, Sisters of Battle canonically practice gunkata like their ancient Daughters of the Emperor ancestors

Seraphim have received training in the ancient skills of the Order. A Seraphim may fire two pistol weapons in the shooting phase, with -1 to hit modifier on each shot. These can be directed against the same target or different enemies.

I found that yellow weapons was the key

They're actually failing to get steps 3 and 4.

Maslow's pyramid, or hierarchy of needs. On the very bottom in red is physiological needs. On the second orange step is safety needs. The step the rich fail to achieve is the third (yellow, love and belonging) and/or the fourth (green, esteem.) We all see they can't make step 5, blue, which is self-actualization: becoming your best self.

making the hastiest, shittiest mockup I can of my creative vision for the Cogfort

The soon to be released age of sigmar cogfort, a walking tower with gun-laden battlements and a big cannon at the top, but with the walking legs crudely pasted over with large wooden wheels

Today's gender is this specific artwork of a Sister of Battle from the sisters of battle second edition warhammer 40.000 codex

A woman with black hair in glossy and shiny black armor with emphasized feminine curves, adorned in black clothes lined in red with white trimming, holding a red and metal gun and looking to some unknown enemy to the right.

These delightful Old World lads www.warhammer.com/en-US/shop/w...

A pair of Warhammer miniatures frogs on square bases. They're clearly abnormal, with one being covered in sores and maggots, and the other having three eyes. They represent heroes turned into frogs by a magic spell during gameplay.

Abortion hope after "gay gene" findings
By JASON LEWIS
Scientists in America claim to have found the first definite evidence of a genetic link to homosexuality. ... isolation of the genes means it could soon be possible to predict whether a baby will be gay and give the mother the option of Abortion.

Smooth cannoneer isn't real and can't hurt me Smooth cannoneer: (old world miniature provided for clothes contrast)

a closeup crop shot of a cannon loader from the games workshop Ironweld Great Cannon kit, holding a helmet in one hand, and taking a big swig from a jug in the oher. And his clothes are... too smooth. Just, too smooth. Some perfunctory creases on the apron and sleeves, sure, but he looks like he came from a shift at the Too Smooth factory.

a warhammer: the old world cannon loader miniature from the games worshop Cannon and Mortar kit. It's got the classic GW thing of having hands that are way too big, but the clothes manage to look more detailed with more naturalistic creases along sleeves, front shirt and pants... although the pants are only *slightly* too smooth.

YOU! SOLDIER! WHY IS YOUR TINY-HEADED HORSE'S NECK SO THIN?

a Freeguild Cavalier miniature from Games Workshop, which is an ornately armored knight on a heavily barded horse. I'll leave any opinion I have of the armor and weapon details aside, since those are a matter of taste, but I need to emphasize: this horse's entire neck is smaller than the rider's helmet. This is a pencil neck horse. If it were in an 80s comedy it would be getting stuffed in a locker.

the star trek: the next generation episode Darmok, featuring an alien who speaks solely via metaphoric references to mythical stories talking to Captain Picard. The alien says, "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra." Picard replies, "Ah, yes, I see. Apes together strong"

watching a major GW wargame begin to flounder and move towards its own extinction

James Franco in the 2018 western film The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. He is being hanged and is looking at his neighbour on the gallows, asking "first time?". This screenshot has been memed to death as the "first time?" meme, but I've chosen to omit the subtitle or doing any edits to it.

A dark silhouette of a man asks a human version of Fluttershy, the pink haired pony from My Little Pony: Friendship is magic, "What's wrong, fluttershy?"

Fluttershy is shyly hiding something behind her back with a guilty expression. "I have something for you, but..."

Another panel shows what's she's holding behind her back. "Promise not to get mad, okay?" It's a bag, originally with personal hygiene products, now crudely photoshopped with trading card game sleeves on top, because you BEASTS need to SLEEVE your CARDS

The strait of hormuz problem map "solved" by some AI bro by saying we should truck oil overland instead, but heavily edited.

At the start is a "boy." The strait of hormuz now represents the broken state of trans Healthcare. The overland route now has estrogen pills labeled "DIY hrt". The end point has a girl.

If you get mad at this, just know that there was no effort or thought put into this messaging and it deserves as much vitriol as that effort.

Can this be a solution?

A map of the divided warhammer 40.000 galaxy with a galaxy-wide rift to hell splitting it. Crudely pasted on it are pictures of spaceship and an arrow, with accompanying text saying "just go around the great rift."

especially if you're playing TTRPGs online, you have NO excuse to not edit the descriptions of your basic-ass items to reflect their value to your character

Erina's Sword
Scorched and visibly blackened by high temperatures, Erina's trusty sword is nonetheless clearly undamaged on closer inspection, unwarped by the fiery magic she channels through it on a regular basis. She has some minor fondness for it now that it has tasted the blood of Chaos-worshipping blackguards.

Remember when we put this into Hard Wired Island and published it in 2021

It's also worth noting that people who hold anti-
android views are often using them as a stepping
stone for something else. In the same way that anti-
transgender groups in real life are often backed by
right-wing groups using it as a wedge to undermine
gay and women's rights, most prominent anti-
android groups are really attacking worker's rights
or—less openly—want it to be socially acceptable to
say that certain kinds of people deserve fewer rights.
This is mostly background information, but it's
good to keep in mind. It's up to you how often this
comes up in play.

Himbo
You have a charming combination of physical attractiveness and naïveté. If a social situation would be neutral to you, you may treat it as Friendly instead, and you Take +1 on any social rolls involving anyone who’s clearly attracted to you. You cannot benefit from any bonuses to or spend any prep on social rolls when things are being left unspoken or during a Sexy mood, and if you forget the political subtleties of an ongoing plot or who an NPC is during a session, the GM doesn’t have to remind you.
