Warhammer 40k

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Why does game-workshop have to games-workshop everything that people like 😠

@heretic_hannes @warhammer40k in two minds on this update. One - clarity on and something of a roadmap is very welcome. Other side - it’s hard reading seeing teams being “declassified”. But I just wonder what that actually means.

What’s your reading of Classified? If this paragraph is on the money, then follow on diagram and other bits of the piece are a bit OTT on the “declassified”.

If it’s just they drop off tournament circuit, but continue to get updates. I’m not that put out.

@rollleafd @warhammer40k
It seems similar to "Legends" in #Warhammer40k, i.e. there will be official-inofficial datasheets for a while, but they will quickly become unbalanced, not follow bigger rule changes and thus become unusable—unless you play by older rules entirely, which you also don't want because one of the players likely has a new team that didn't have rules before.

Declassified teams will continue getting rules/balance updates for the rest of the edition

That makes them significantly different from bighammer legends imo
