Since this community is pretty dead I thought I liven it up a little with some very light discussion about factions in our favourite wargame we absolutely hate.

So for me it’s the Orks. I love them in 40k and AoS. The chaotic, ramshackle ridiculousness of them is incredible entertaining. That and I am more interested in building models and painting than playing and Orks are perfect for that.

I also like Necrons because they are so awful but in an honest way. Yes they want to get rid of the other races so that the Necrons rule once more over the galaxy. But from their point of view it’s understandable. They ARE better than every other living race in technology and science. Years are to them like seconds to us. The difference between Necrons and other living races really is like the difference between us and insects.

Edit: I just want to clarify that I don’t think the Necrons are right in wanting everything dead. I just get why terrible space Egyptians would believe that they are right. I like that they are very upfront and honest about being dickheads.

    What do fandom think happen with human and xeno population of the worlds conquered by them

    “Dey get KRUMPED! Haha genocide is funni when I say funni word!!”

    I guess that’s one way to enjoy the setting - by not thinking too much about it and just consume surface fluff and vibes

      Yeah, which is exactly what orks do, just in universe, something like 4th wall breaking but in reverse.

        As I said in my post above about how I love a faction of literal murderous pirates who have zero material need to do anything that they do, that’s pretty much the only way to enjoy the setting at all. The second you start analysing it, as we commies are wont to do for everything, you realize it’s awful and you deny yourself another stupid bit of pop culture (see yugopnik’s recent vid about leftists not being able to enjoy anything)

          Nah i’m pretty ok with popculture, i got serious nerd streak anyway, if i did not enjoued it i wouldn’t even write about it, since it’s just pointless lose of time to engage in unfun hobby. Considering the community we are meaning the so called leftists who seriously start shitting idiocy, like that one guy who wrote like 6 huge walls of text using philosophical jargon why Tyranids are ok.
