I haven’t checked in on this game since around launch. Anyone want to bring me up to speed on what’s happening? I gather the latest expansion pack is priced differently than prior DLC?

Also, that line about discussion being a privilege seems icky.

    40k is, in part, parody to make fun of fascists. That’s why it’s so absurdly over the top. The fact that fascists like it says more about them than the setting.

      Yeah, Sure. Way to much hero worship and storylines where the genetically pure supersoldiers of the empire are the good guys to be a parody of fascism.

          You sadly did nothing to deepen my understanding. But there were luckily other. You can now tear into me for not using google or something…

            I think you might be taking this internet thing a little too seriously. We all have misunderstandings about stuff but it’s not good to stubbornly insist that you know what you’re talking about despite clearly never having actually looked in to the material. That’s the extent of my tearing in. But you are right in that I should do better about actually saying things of substance instead of trying to be snide all the time.

      1.) a literary or musical work in which the style of an author or work is closely imitated for comic effect or in ridicule.

      2.) a feeble or ridiculous imitation.

      In that case, I don’t think GW knows what parody is.
