A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil. Don’t insult other community members in posts or comments, and don’t make posts designed to insult other community members or parts of the fandom with different opinions.

  2. Posts must be on-topic.

  3. No real life politics. That means no political advocacy, and no real life political discussions vaguely dressed up as on-topic posts. If you want to discuss real life politics, you are free to start your own community.

  4. No memes/low-effort spam/Youtube poops style posts. grimdank is a place for those.

  5. Posts must be coherent.

  6. If a post is otherwise allowed but has realistic gore or nudity, please mark it NSFW.

“We want to broaden the appeal to bring more people into the universe so when we make more content tangentially related to the IP more people watch them.”

It’s step 2 of the enshittification steps for media companies. Step 3 is blaming the fans when they say they don’t like the new stuff because it’s totally different from what they loved.

Games Workshop is really good at doing 2 and 3, they destroyed an entire setting and product line doing it.

Excuse you.

They destroyed several different product lines.
