Yesterday I saw someone actually say that Blood of the Phoenix / Phoenix Rising was proof that Space Marines are undersupported and GW is focusing too much on the Xenos.

I kid thee not.

pretty sure he wasn't serious and was instead trying to prove that people cherry picking facts to support their own narrative are often dishonest and deliberatly obscuring the full picture.

Well its completely accurate statement.

Sisters did not get anything in the PA book - apparently there is a narrative scenario that mentions them and has a Strat.
The massively under producd pre-order box set does have a incredably faint F+F logo - but thats it.

Some (pure Marine players) will doubtless scream - but but they had a whole box set - ignoring that they got a full Codex and then had 10 pages of new rules in the PA book.....

Not a marine player, just happy they're getting all the marine factions up to date and out the way quickly via these books rather than 6+ months of codex instead.

Of course you complain about marines in every thread you enter, to the point any empathy has been well eroded.

I find this an odd statement given that we're already beginning to approach 6 months of almost nothing but Marine content as their codex was released back in August. If anything part of the problem is that GW has been very slow in bringing out all of the supplements and then getting started on the other marine factions, did we really need to wait until the very end of November for BT to finally get their supplement?

Or he's just a troll and has done absolutely nothing but troll none Marine fans on this board.

Do they really have to wait until the middle of next year to release all psychic awakening books? Obviously not. They want to slowly trickle them out so more people buy multiple books for either multiple collections or to chase the competitive dragon.

It's only 2-3 years ago we got 3 codex a year and 1-2 of those would be marines normally. People seem to forget that a faction they don't care about getting something is better than nobody getting anything.

Besides they were trolling the anti-marine crowd who seemingly bit so hard they got suspended.

I wasn't referring to all the stuff with Actually An Englishman, (though I made it out of that whole exchange completely unscathed!), I meant… um… JGS or something like that, a page or two before everything went to hell in a hand basket.

That was almost certainly a troll post lol. It was basically expressly designed to piss off the marine haters.

And as a piece of internet art, I appreciated that, tho' my boredom with all things wearing adamantium underwear currently burns hot.

in fairness some of the marine haters are pretty easy to trigger. a statement like "As far as GW is concerned Dark Angels are a seperate army" (entirely factual) triggers some

Maybe GW is trolling people who hate marines…

Seems this conversation has been done and now its just an excuse to spam the forum, please don't do that.
