I've just finished the trilogy and I'm officially joining the Alecto waiting room.

Well, quite.
It's the assumption that because I am hurtling towards 50, I must need some pharmaceutical assistance.
Thanks, Zuckbook Al Gore Rhythm. I have no interest in getting generic blue pills.

04.02.2026 13:55 โ ๐ 12 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Already have extant commo dude, 2 plasma gunners, sniper.
04.02.2026 13:05 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Build 2 Grenade launcher gunners
Build 1 Melta gunner
Build 1 Flamer Gunner
Build new Auspex Dude (Current has a HSVG, not the end of the world, but hey)
Build Medic
Build Demolitionist
Leave others on sprue for narrative projects.
I have acquired a new box of Kasrkin, as my previous 40k squad is not Killteam compliant and I built the Sergeant as 9e compliant so not good for KT or 10e!
The plan:
Build "Unbroken" as my KT Sergeant - HS Laspistol and Power Weapon.
Build new box sergeant as my 40k Sergeant - Plasma/Power Weapon
I have the Kazzy Sergeant painted up in white armour.

03.02.2026 19:14 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yes, definitely.
The problem is not the faction, but the subset of players who are too into that faction. And I don't want to encounter them.
Even H.G. Wells didn't discount girls from playing historical wargames in 1913...
03.02.2026 18:32 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0There's too much scope for people who are a bit /too/ into that faction IYKWIM.
Fuck's sake, I knew an older kid back in 1e 40k who painted his marines as The Crap Mustache Guy Youth. Thankfully I did not maintain contact with him, as I was at an impressionable age.
This put me off playing Konflict 47. I'm annoyed at this, because K47 looked like a fun game. It has WW2 diesel futurism and mad science. And, most importantly, no Hugo Boss 1934 collection Spicy Windmill Boys. As an aside, I had no interest in Bolt Action due to a Spicy Windmill faction.
03.02.2026 18:25 โ ๐ 10 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 4 ๐ 0I know.
Any excuse other than "We fear girl cooties"
I want more people to play. I want a greater and more diverse pool of people to play games with. I want to see what awesome and imaginative shit they come up with.
This is like demanding historical accuracy for orcs and elves in rubber sword larp.
03.02.2026 16:25 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Agreed. And my wife agrees also. A friend of mine is a bit "Yeah, but sexy werewolf boys"
03.02.2026 16:24 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0This turned me off getting into Konflict 47.
My too-many warhammer factions appreciate this.
