It's good to see the Ministry of Funny Hats is still present on the Hive world. It may sound heretical but that particular sculpt reminds me a bit more of Trench Crusade for some reason (though I'm only very superficially familiar with that thread/game) moreso than 40k/Necromunda. Nice sculpt though regardless.

Seen a lot of people saying stuff like this about the ecclesiarchy kill team too. Trench crusade to me seems like a rip off of older warhammer aesthetics, specifically a lot from the old inquisitor game and john blanche sketches, not the other way around. Im glad GW is making more models inspired by this era, a lot of recent necromunda models are directly from the inquisitor sketchbook. This guys hat is awesome. Its a golden age for inq28 fans like me

Rip off seems like an overly harsh way to describe it but it's definitely heavily influenced by it. I agree about the original inspiration for both regardless.

That, and how would having the corpse of a Redemptionist on a stick prove to those Redemptionists that you're one of them?

It's a relic. If St Elvis' toenail is a powerful relic, how powerful would half his skeleton be?

I don't know if Catholics would be eager to cheer for you if you wandered into St. Peter's Square with the Pope's corpse on a stick.

The guy on the stick. That’s totally Klovis the Redeemer from the comics, isn’t it?

I thought it was, but looking more at some pictures of the two, it kind of seems like a hybrid between him and the Arch Zealot.

And I don't see how this can be a Prophet of the Redemption when he is showing his face.

He's not a prophet of the Red Redemption, he's the Prophet of the Redemption. Those other guys were charlatans at best and heretics at worst, or at least the survivors are.
It's a new crusade now, with a Saint and everything.

He's got the anti-Pope on a stick.

Good thing it's Warhammer then, not the real world. How many Corpse on a stick models does GW have? Up to and including the Lord-Relictor who is carrying around his own skeleton. On a steeeck.

Also, you might want to do some research on Relics of Saints.

Maybe all 3?

He needs a tiny servo skull behind his hat using it as a Lectern/Podium to help preach.

Yeah, but this isn't the remains of some long-dead saint martyred against those that would oppress the faithful - this is basically the bones of the dude who had the high priest job just prior to its wielder! Any heretic can just shoot a holy man in the face, grab his body and claim right of succession. But hey, Redemptionists aren't all too rational to begin with, anyway!

The same Catholic Church that they put a pope's exhumed corpse on trial?

I'm pretty sure none of those folks from 1200 years ago are still alive today so gakky comparison since he specified Catholics and not the church... But don't let that stop your personal very 40k -like redemptionist zeal though.

You seem to be taking this very personally. Kind of weird tbh.

they were also Catholic 1200 years ago

also, the space gothic aesthetic has always been making a mockery of catholicism, so dead guy on a stick as a saint's relic certainly isn't anything new, or worse than they were doing in the 80s

I think you would all be better off if you stopped comparing 40k to todays religions...

Is it okay to compare it to Gnosticism?

Anyway, the only one, true leader of the Red Redemption is the one that can kick off a proper singalong:



Pulpitek WHEN, GW?

He's missing the sword. The ridiculously large and foreboding sword is what helped tie it all together...

Or is he? Maybe it's just not in the photo.

Why shouldn't we discuss inspirations for elements of the background (and art design) of 40k?

Counter-point - I think you'd be better off not trying to moderate other peoples' discussions. If you disapprove of what they're writing, use the little yellow triangle instead.

Its not the first time you infer into this type of claims... Im not here to moderate or try any god damn thing but you seem inclined to moderate my comments in this way again though. Follow your own advice maybe?

If you use basic common sense you will see that some people here were getting a bit "edgy" regarding religious topics... even on Dakka Dakka offtopic discussions area it says religious and political discussions are off the table that is because of obvious reasons, that Im sure you can understand.

You can discuss anything you want and Im allowed to suggest that maybe religious ramblings and people getting aggravated with it are out of touch on a topic for necromunda news and rumours. I rather not see it locked and I believe people are adult enough to police themselves.

heaven forbid discussions of 40k get a bit edgy. we should get back on topic and talk about the perfectly normal guy carrying a saint's relics around on a stick

You can pretty much load your comments the way you want to fit your personal beliefs but dont pretend for a second that debating 40k is the same as debating todays religious practices.

Sunday Preview – The ash wastes fight back

Psyched to see the weapons pack and expansion for Ash Wastes. I hope this spurs on another wave of the Hangers-on and Brutes.

I'm intrigued to see what the Hangers On, Hired Guns, etc, will be in the Nomads book.

That outpost/tower looks great. I will be really tempted untill i see the absurd price tag.
Love the rope ladder, I imagine someone beeing hunted by an ambull and they manage to pull him up in the last second.

I would love to have one to make a base camp for my aeldari biker scouts.

the ash waste models are so good. would love to have an IG army using those someday

Yeah. The Ash Wastes gang and the millipedes are brilliant. Very flavorful.

They could also be turned to Muties for Gorka Morka, if you adapted the Muties list somewhat due to not everyone having a Mount.

Very tempting releases. If I didn't have other purchases in mind I'd probably put an order in for them.
