      Of course! As someone with... Too much of an addiction to my silly little plastic toy soldiers, I've spent a lot of time in these sorts of spaces and thinking about the settings. And that means spending a lot of time dealing with the community and its particular brand of shit, but also finding (and cultivating) the nicer places.

        Always funny when you drop the fact about Women Space marines being a thing in the 80s too (two models named "Gabs" and "Jayne") at least until recently anyhow lol

        It's a shame it's fanbase is very toxic.. but glad you've found nicer spaces

          The FSM in Rogue Trader thing is a bit more of a complicated situation than that but going into the exact situation is messy and pedantic and you're not exactly wrong anyways

          There's a lot of nice warhammer spaces honestly, while the wider fanbase is more toxic it can be very easy to find the nicer spaces if you go looking. Really the one unfortunate thing is that they're usually hobby or game related which makes them less accessible to people who don't hobby. It's specifically the lore and meme sides of the community that tend to be on the worse end, which is unfortunate for lefties trying to get casually invested in the setting since outside of the Sigmarxisms there isn't really a great option, at least that I know of. And even then Reddit Sigmarx is 90% model posts nowadays compared to its heyday which had a lot more memes and effortposting. Honestly I've been meaning to post to Lemmygrad's Sigmarx more to try to get it to grow but I haven't found the time or inspiration for posts there yet.

            The sisters of battle part? ^^

            Yeah I resigned myself to 3d printing the old stuff and maybe read a book or watch some lore stuff when I felt compelled.
            Harder when you dont really have any social circles and such

              Well if you ever want a bit of a social circle for it I'm always willing to talk about it!

              3D printing is very fun, I need to get a printer for myself sometime instead of just using my school one. If you ever want to talk about hobby stuff and painting the models (or want advice on how to improve) don't hesitate to ask, I'm actually pretty decent if I do say so myself~

                Depends on when the next time I get hyperfixated on it lol /hj

                We haven't printed much in a while but it can be fun for sure
