That must have been from so long ago. They were giving something away for FREE!!!

4th edition, the battle for Macragge battle set (Tyranids vs Ultramarines)

Not the full starter set, just a paint set. Googled it, contained three marines, 6 paints and a starter brush. So not a lot but still more than you could get for free nowadays.

Seriously guys you need to get over it, we all are playing with plastic toy soldiers!!!

First off, I don't hate brownies or MLP but I do hate brownies trying to browninise everything! Brownies should play Fantasy and convert Bretonnian armies to have pony mounts if they want a MLP army.

My daughter is a brownie, she wears a yellow t shirt and brown skorts and has a large brown hanky around her neck.

I have never heard of furries or whatever other sick pastime people might have in their room at night when their mums have delivered their meals.

The fact is, this part of the forum is 40k. With a set range of rules and models as introduced by the manufacturers and as far as I'm aware they don't include leeway for wired sexual fetish nonsense introduced by outsiders.

Get a grip!

Got a friend that's started a Space Wolf army with loads of wolves, TWC, and wolf-headed marines. Pretty sick I must say! Don't really think Space Ponies would be as thrilling, however.

Dude, it's brony. Not browny. I believe the second is food. Just to point that out...

It's country specific. In the uk a brownie is a small girl a bit like a scout. Then US baked a cake and called it a brownie and thought they'd invented the term (as usual) and the UK being ever in their shadow (apparently), adopted the affair mentioned cake but kept the girls association name. Just to point that out...

And again with the completely wrong impressions...

Can we just drop the discussion of odd sexual interests and focus on the actual topic? The discussion at hand is about Marine armies made of ponies vs Marine armies made of anthropomorphic animals.

If you really want to discuss what people wear in the bedroom, there are other forums for that.

A Brownie is a fairy. The junior girl guides are named after them.

Neither. Plain and simple. Burn either of them to ashes. Even those woe-begotten traitors would agree with me on this, or the arrogant Eldar and inscrutable Necrons.

I didnt think either were ok in the eyes of people who take their man dollies too seriously. I would have to agree that ponies and furries have no place in 40K but hell, it's your hobby and haters gonna hate so do what ever the feth you like and ignore who ever says that ponies in power armor are stupid, I know I do. There will always be people too immature to accept that a fandom or two might cross into their hobby and these people are not worth your time. If someone wont play your furry marines then chances are they weren't worth playing in the first place

Also, to all of you throwing pedo comments at bronies.....what do you think non wargamers thing of you, hunched over a table surrounded by kids in a dark store, muttering about your man dollies -____-

I'd recommend you look at the rules for entering the Open category of Golden Demon. In GWs own words "anything goes"

lord_blackfang wrote:Both are inserting a ridiculous fetish into the hobby. With the difference that anyone drawing Dildo Marines or Golden Shower Marines or anything like that would know full well how it would be received, but furries and bronies act all indignant about being called out for doing the exact same thing. Keep it in your bedroom.

Furry as in 'anthropomorphised animals', not as in 'gfur' or 'sfur'...

... and that actually needed to be said?


As for OP, both are awesome if the miniatures are well converted. Make the fat neckbeards rage, OP, you know your fabulous!

I was actually talking about this with my 40k friends the other night. It seems to me that the OP (who is probably a furry looking for vindication) saw how many bronies we have on here and figures that that means that everyone accepts them. Which is obviously wrong, as we've already seen for the last 6 pages.

As for pony/furry Marines, I don't think either belongs in 40k. Their tone doesn't jive with the fiction unless you make massive concessions. That said, if you want to make a pony/furry army then obviously it's your army, money and time, and you can go right ahead and do so. I don't think I'd play you though (I don't think I'd play that oh-so-clever guy who made the "Blood letter" army in the pic a few posts above either).

And before someone says it, yes, I play Space Wolves, but you're not anthropomorphic, they are human... And as much as people dislike the connection, furries as a fandom are inexorably linked with a fetish, even though there are 100% innocent furries as well of course.

I'm still not sure where Bran Redmaw fits into this equation.

Damn brownies. Always getting their jimmies rustled over a stupid cartoon.

but is okay with this



The former makes more sense cause he is a chaos space marine and prolly got some chaos blessing to make him part animal

I think both are in good fun. I've skimmed over this thread and am a bit surprised by the strength of feeling against stuff that doesn't 'fit' with the GW approved game. I mean seriously? Who gives a damn?? When I saw a MLP drawn to look like Dr Who I thought it was good, I didn't get my panties in a wad saying "But it doesn't fit the canon!!"

Crossover fiction is FUN, goofy, stupid fun. Get out there are look at the wargaming hobby and the silly games that exist. I've got one where you play alien greys kidnapping sheep and trying to avoid the farmer and his dog (and a hedgehog oddly enough). There are some really goofy games about, and you people complain because someone wants to stick a tail on a Space Marine?

No one is forcing you to play someone's army, and the posts suggesting links between furries and being sexually dangerous/paedophilic are just insane. To those saying 'not acceptable' and the like, lighten up and get over it, the hobby is what each person makes of it.

I WANT PINK FURRED SPACE WOLVES WITH WOLVES HEAD IN THIS THREAD NOOOOOAAAAAAAWW.

I swear to God there is nothing more tasty then Neckbeard's rage over a toy soldier's game canonicity.

LION EL JOHNSON RIDING AN HELLO KITTY LION!!!

So not cool then?

My Little Pony + Matt Ward =.....

Hey on top of things that art is actually pretty damn good!

I dunno, I find furry Marines weirder than MLP Marines because furry Marines are more of a sexual things, but MLP marines less so. Still, they're both weird and kinda creepy.

LoneLictor wrote:I dunno, I find furry Marines weirder than MLP Marines because furry Marines are more of a sexual things, ...

No. They are not.

For the last time, if you're thinking of sexual behaviour, you're thinking of the wrong kind of furry. Drop it.

Yeah, and you pretty much all outed yourself as summer b/tard that have never been on Deviantart.

And now there are female space marines ITT.

Lord help us all.

Find one brony that isn't one just so he can say "I'm a 20 year old man and I like my little pony, aren't I a novel character; I'm so wacky".

Actually, female space marines would go a long way about making this universe more believable. What's the horsecawk all fanboys love for if not?

That and non-crippled using dreadnoughts...

I actually just went over the synopsis on Wiki, and honestly, MLP's fluff is just strait better than 40K. Even the caracter development is better handled... At the very least, it doesn't attempt to make chainsword-wielding rapist genocidal half deamons from SPAAAACE acceptable in a kiddie's media...

I don't have much of a problem with Furry stuff, Beastmen exist in W40K. Trying to fit anthropomorphic animals in W40K is better than trying to fit a specific show or set of characters in, they make more sense than the Pony stuff atleast.

I dunno if I would go that far, but it is actually a pretty well written show.

To explain, I'm 28, I'm a dude, and my girlfriend forced me to watch it with her until I finally admitted it was a pretty good show. The characters have well-developed personalities, there's a lot of snarky humor, occasional innuendo, movie and pop culture references or spoofs, and generally lots of stuff thrown in for adults. Given that my girlfriend has a 3 year old daughter, I will say that when the kid asks to watch Ponies instead of Dora the Explorer or some other hellish show, it's a big relief.

All that said, the line I draw is, "Are you actually trying to shoehorn some other fiction into 40k, or are you just doing this for kicks?"

If you want an army of Space Marines with fox heads because you're into that, and you make up a story for it, I'm going to pretend like you never told me that. It will never really jive with the fluff for me, end of story. If you seriously want to make a wolf-man Space Wolf army, you're toeing the line, but I can accept it.

But if you're making a goofy fem-marine, fur-marine, or pony marine army just for kicks, either as a spoof or a fun crossover or just to flex your modeling skills, I think it's awesome, and you should go to town. I've personally never seen a ponyhammer army that looked like a serious attempt at splicing ponies into the Imperium. Like an earlier poster said, there are parallels you can draw between the shows while highlighting the complete difference in tone to humorous effect. Nothing wrong with that, and if it's well-executed, even better!
