Just remember, Space Marines are BAD and there's no such thing as canon in 40k.

From the little I know about copyright law, if they don't proactively police their own IP then they stand to lose their claim on it. So they need to be making a visible effort to stop some/most/egregious cases.

Tbh, it's the same with YTers. We use tons of GW artwork without permission. They could dispute us into oblivion. We might think it's a bad decision for them to take, or unlikely, but they could.
I knew that when I started, which is why it would be silly for me to base my livelihood on it.

Honestly, I think if you make money by copying the IP of a large corporation you shouldn't be surprised if they take legal action against you.
I think it's great that fans sculpt bits, create new things etc. But anyone turning that sort of thing into a business KNOWS it may become a legal issue.

What's nice is that YT has quite good auto-moderation features. It almost always catches insults, slurs, links etc and I've added a lot more watchwords to it. So 'dealing with them' is really just having a laugh at the Held Comments list before deleting them!

You mean I shouldn't start claiming I KNOW THE SECRETS OF ALL LORE and then get angry if anyone contradicts me? If I don't do that, how will I attract such dedicated and fans as this lovely Vandal SS guy? 😂

Genuinely hard to tell. Also if I'm toppling the west, are we deciding that communism is 'eastern'? Cos I can think of one massively bearded historical figure who might disagree.

Hmm. I like both for different reasons. But I think Necromunda squats might be the perfect compromise.

It's the emperor, and it's also the holy human form (cos xenos bad) and there's also a hint that the people who started the Imperial Cult were inspired by all the skulls on the field during the Siege.
But really it's for cool factor! 💀

WHO KNOWS? Vulkan was found in 832.M31, about 40 years after the scattering. But then the warp does weird stuff - Corax was found aged 9, over a century after being scattered!

I'm half way through and that's the impression I'm getting. Oh yeah, that one character still exists. I guess they did that. Er....fine.
