I'm not going to re-read the lunacy that is the last few pages of this thread, but I'd be very surprised if anyone actually said that. Even that one guy banging on about how relatively difficult it might be for an Inquisitor to acquire power armour, I don't think even that guy said that.

I'm wondering...are there any other SBG players in this thread reading these complaints and thinking..."Wow, 40K players in general are really whiney and self entitled".
You guys think you have it bad?

Not just 40k but WFB as well back in the day. Its less the communities as a whole but a number of people who really are just plain selfish. The amount of releases games workshop has made over the last 5-10 years is staggering (including one off box games), and a lot of the more recent things have been models people have been waiting many years for. Weve seen GSC who pre-dated 2nd ed and AM who havent really had many releases at all (barring tech priests etc in Guard forces) being made into full armies. There will be releases of the units mentioned for Chaos, im pretty much certain of it. Nurgle/DG havent really had anything barring Typhus and some plastic metal hybrid deathguard for quite a while (im excluding daemons because theyve all had stuff in the last decade or so). I collect Chaos and would love to see plastic noise marines, new zerkers to replace my old ones and go with the new kharn, as well as Abaddon to lead them with a glorious new model befitting of his importance in the CSM background (just like Archaon in WFB/AoS). I wouldn't however begrudge another army, especially DG of releases

You may want to look up the release dates for the latest nurgle stuff. You got fairly ...fresh... toys. But as soon as someone wants something else they are egotistical? Last time I checked nurgle was allowed to use havocs and obliterators so you would actually get something too. Please rethink your attitude. This is a hobby for all of us, not just me not just you. Thank you and have a nice day.

Please tell me, aside from the daemons (because all gods have had them) and the older nurgle havocs, typhus and hybrid plastic kits, what have deathguard/nurgle had? YOU said youd like to have seen Abaddon, new zerkers et al
"An Abaddon for starters.
And Obliterators, Noice Marines, Zerkerz, Havocs, ...
If that means less for the stinking spiky marines so be it."
'If that means less for the stimking spiky mariness so be it.....'
Im not talking about possibly shared units like Obilterators or havocs, you said that Nurgle should get less units in place of those that you mentioned. Im not putting words in your mouth and ive never said the hobby is all about me. I dot have an attitude, im merely pointing out your sense of entitlement to the detriment of Deathguard/Nurgle collecters/gamers Just be honest about it. Id love to see the units you mentioned in new plastic sets too, but I wouldnt want to see less new DG
Yeah they are, it was mentioned on the Warhammer community news. You can also take them in a detachment and not lose its benefits (having all khorne etc) or something along those lines

Ok, so there was nothing in the latest base game?
'If that means less for the stimking spiky mariness so be it.....'
Yes some deficits are more severe than others. Again please except that nurgle has gotten its toys in the less distant past and is therefor of lower priority under the assumption that we want each faction and unit to be supported somewhat equally. If you don't give a damn about others then yeah of course they can wait. How long is fine for you?

Did you ever consider that maybe he doesn't care about Nurgle, or that there are a lot of people who choose not to have Death Guard armies, or that we're waiting on plastic Havocs/Oblits and/or a new CSM kit?

Dont try and turn it around and pretend to be everyone elses 'hero'. It wont be long before the rest of chaos gets new stuff. The core game is this 'round' of nurgle and 'generic' chaos was lat ed Deathguard have literally just got some love in the form of the core box set, and will be having a codex release and supporting units soon. You specifically said that youd like to see other units in place of nurgle releases. Each faction/god will be supported. There is only so much GW can release at a time. Wait. Your. Turn

Seriously. Call me crazy, but I think it's reasonable that you be able to build every army's core without going to hugely outdated models. Would it be nice for iconic but niche things like special characters and elites choices to stay current? Yeah. But I think priority should really be having staples up to date, so CSM can get contemporary marines and cultist command and weapons that aren't from a previous edition's starter box; eldar can have melee guardians that aren't five-edition-old conversion bits; sisters of battle can have any substantive release in like 6 editions (seriously, a GK-style SOB unit with a few extra weapon options could cover just about everything but seraphim and repentia easily).
Instead, plague marines, which already have pretty good resin kits and FW kits, are for some reason bumped to the top of the list.

No, hes taslking about not getting new zerkers, oblits, havocs and noise marines. Theyll all come, its just that DG/nurgle is getting some love and some people are just too impatient. I say this as a collector of all the different gods, having just recently got the DI box set and added the DG to my forces, not having owned amy nurgle affiliated stuff before. Im genuinely happy that the DG are seeing some love and looking forwardto all the other upcoming chaos stuff

I think complaining about not getting an update of one of the cult troops already IN PLASTIC when GW instead is updating cult troops that where in resin before is just silly. I'm mroe of a Khorne guy then a Emps children guy, but lemme tell you I HOPE we see plastic noise marines before we see plastic bezerkers. this isn't to say I'd not mind updated bezerkers but we at least have a plastic option for them

Emperor's Children and World Eaters haven't. I imagine that is when Noise Marines and Berzerkers will be updated.
Both of those could be the basis of interesting Warzones- Emperor's Children/Slaanesh paired with various Eldar as a themed release, and World Eaters with Angron vs IG and Orks on Armageddon IV

By the time the rest of chaos gets its turn I will have spent my gaming budget on 3rd party bits and have what I want. And have no need for their product. Also by that time space marines will have had several chapters revamped and a whole new codex worth of brand new units. I feel like gw is oversaturating the vanilla marine market.

Huh? We did get Primaris marines, but we also recently got Thousand Sons and soon Death Guard, each with troops, elites, chaff, characters, and a primarch. Add some daemon models from the Tzeentch release as well.

That's what I had to do. A family member of mine gave me a $50.00 GW voucher so I bought some sonic weapons but practically all of my noisey boys are custom or kit-bashed. I am also in the middle of building a sonic Dreadnought using the Emperor's Children contemptor Dreadnought and a volkite weapon. But I wish there was an easier option to build EC because those resin pieces are a bother to work with. Maybe a sprue of speakers to mount on everything would be nice for EC because I can hardly find anything like that even with 3rd party bits. I just want my dudes to look cool, is that so wrong?
