Games Workshop has put you in charge of deciding the next wave of Made To Order minis. They will be available for one week and take two months to cast and ship.
1) You must do good for the company. Either choose things that will sell very well or things that will make people go down the slippery slope of buying a new set of minis to go with it. 2) Models must still belong to Games Workshop, miniatures prior to 1993 might not still be in their rights to manufacture, particularly Chaos ones. 3) Minis can be mixed and matched from any Games Workshop licenses including specialist games, Fantasy, 40k, Lord Of The Rings, and Blood Bowl. You must pick a total of 8 solo minis and three different boxed sets of units.
Wut choose?
Levi Davis
Fuck made to order, just bring back the Diaz Daemonettes and keep them back.
Jose Campbell
I'd rather a plastic reproduction. Hell, I'd rather a complete redesign to the shite we have now.
Nicholas Long
All the redeeemer cult stuff, any assassins, and chaos cultists
Gavin Jones
The old Inquisitorial Stormtroopers and Kasrkins.
Colton Allen
SISTERS OF BATTLE, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD
Parker Price
Three words for you user
Battle, fleet, gothic.
Aaron Turner
Man O' War, and this .
I do have a bit of a thing for naval warfare, I'll admit.
Oliver Wood
Yes.
Luke Edwards
>old Inquisitorial Stormtroopers
You mean stormtroopers?
Kevin Peterson
Not gonna happen. Doesn't matter, got mine.
Adam Hernandez
Truth. Those berets rocked!
Shame that aesthetic wasn't carried on.
Andrew Jackson
Disney copyrighted the word Stormtrooper so GW can't use it anymore.
Gavin Nelson
Forge World is supposed to be making a succesor called Battlefleet Heresy soon. No doubt Bligh kicking the bucket probably put a hamper in it though.
David Russell
Oh yea of little age.
Julian Clark
>copy righting the English translation for a German WW1 doctrine
Jose Ward
Sounds like someone needs to be reconditioned. Please come with us. Soon, you too will love the Mouse and all he does.
Owen Thomas
How the fuck is that possible? It's just the name for fucking German infantry in the great war.
Stosstruppen. Fucking Disney.
Christopher Rivera
It's easy when your megacorporation holds more power than some country governments.
Noah James
The only thing I could find related to copyrights and stormtroopers was something about a UK artist selling stormtrooper helmets and getting fucked for it.
Michael Clark
The old WoC Flesh Hounds pic related
The 'modern' ones look trash, like fucking lizard-dogs, and i don't care if they match the old school art, most old art was shit and you know it
Evan Gonzalez
Disney flat out stole Finding Nemo off a french author. The court case was eventually settled in Disney's favour because Nemo was coloured a slightly different shade of orange in the film to in the book. American civil law in particular is nothing more than a contest of who has more money. It's not as bad, but not much better in Europe.
Adam Bell
Basically, all you need to control a word is to sue anyone who uses it and have enough money to keep the litigation going longer than the target of your lawsuit. Whether you would ultimately prevail in court is irrelevant if the other company will prefer to settle out of court and abandon their claim to the word rather than facing the expense of a lengthy legal fight.
It's what GW has been doing to small companies for decades.
Brandon Young
It's a much more defensible argument for Disney to make in GW's case that in others, since they were literally using "Imperial Stormtroopers" who wear light carapace armor and carry laser guns.
Christopher Taylor
They're just shitty fap-fiction material though. Slaneesh is supposed to be hermaphroditic, and not even necessarily about sex. Take your magical realming out from my IP.
Hunter Bell
SW stormtroopers are armed with what is closer to plasma guns.
Colton Rodriguez
Disney has so much money they could copyright the Bible and get away with it. The only thing preventing them from copyrighting half of the shit that is similar to any of their intellectual property is just not having gotten around to it yet. They are literally the most evil fucks on the planet. Especially shameful to that Disney worked his ass off and made a successful company without the help of the Jewish Mafia Cabal in California/Hollywood (Which is why they hated him and vice versa) and now they own his company after his death. Shame really.
Camden Cox
Do you think intellectual property judges are well versed in the finer points of fictional energy weapons?
Though, I'd love to see a case like that actually go to trial so some fa/tg/uys could get expert witness fees for testifying about how blasters differ from lasguns.
Samuel Hughes
Praetorian Guard
Liam Turner
Space marines are more of a copyright infringement than stormtroopers. They are essentially the same but with bigger pauldrons.
Ryder White
GW's new naming policy doesn't have anything to do with Disney directly.
The new naming policy is so that if you google a GW name you get GW's webstore first.
So if you google "Astra Millitarum" or "Tempestus Scions" you get GW.
It has nothing to do with copyrights, it's 100% SEO
Tyler Rodriguez
Ok, how do they differ from old stormtroopers of the time? Because there is no "inquisitorial stormtrooper" models, they're all just 2nd and 3rd edition stormies that you could use for Inquisitorial stormies.
Jeremiah Fisher
Sarah the slayer star player.
Ethan Johnson
Slaanesh can be male or female or both depending on how he feels. He's about perfection and pleasure, and the female form is perfection. Females also have the greatest highs in pleasure. If it wasn't for their inherent physical frailty and emotional instability females would be the perfect creature. But the warp is fueled by emotion, and super crab claws that can cut a person in two with ease make daemonettes deadly. Numale GW employee pls go.
Jason Butler
2nd edition Hive Tyrants and Carnifexes. Nid players are often oldhammer fags and those models are rare enough that you could sell them for $50+ each and people would buy them. Additionally their wargear configurations are still all legal in 8th edition. Tyranid warriors are still common and cheap on ebay so they're not really worth it, Zoanthropes might be worth a shot though.
Austin Gutierrez
Greenskins in Power Armor. I like the idea that they could be a advanced type of Ork like in the Beast era, where theyd pilot ships and use more advanced weaponry (and hopefully shoot) a little less retardedly
Justin Rodriguez
>hopefully shoot a little less retardedly Well, flash gitz have recently learned how to point their snazzguns straight, so it's proven possible.
