problem is this entire sutuation is bcs GW wants cheap investment money and dont care about thier fans, lore and all that stuff. Classic corpo thing.
Yes, they want money. That has been the case for decades. They care about their fans as the same as always. The problem, such that it is, is that a group of fans think they are the ONLY fans when they're not. Hell, forget it being that they're the only ones. A huge chunk of the people trying to turn back the clock have no interest in Warhammer at all! The amount of times this week alone I have seen A call B tourist because they aren't mad about female Custodes, only for A to eventually admit they aren't even in the hobby at all, is crazy. Or to respond to somebody posting their models accusing them of being the problem with Warhammer just because they're a woman or gay or trans or whatever the hell else. There's so much that could be complained about with how the franchise is being run, especially in regards to community outreach and how they've treated people who have created things that do more to draw in new fans than ever before, that it blows my mind people are snapping over this. Which does not actually matter.
The whole stuff is super hilarious to me because the lore changes ALL the time with constant rewrites, retcons and whatnot since the second edition decades ago. Remember Squats who is rewritten to become the Leagues of Votann? or Leman Russ being an ordinary Space Marine in the 1st edition?.
Also calling GW greedy solely because female Custodes is just peak tourist behavior to me. Like holy shite people who actually in the hobby even a little knew this already since a long time ago. I weep for AdMech players every day.
Admittedly the way GW handled it could be better, but this is a company who let Matt Ward under their employment, so competence aren't their strong suit. Ultimately IT DOES NOT MATTER like the person above me said. FemCustodes would probably be retconned in 10 years or so because GeeDubs wanted to cut corners not sculpting new models for them.

My favorite is the Bretonnians, first a highly decadent society functionally existing as a great big Slaneshi cult, then a "Chivalric" society of Arthurian Questing Knights that float somewhere between "Noble but disconnected to the peasants" and "Downright thinks their horses are more human than peasants are".
As for me, I am just bothered by that stupid haircut. Seriously, is that the only female hairstyle that exists these days?
Given that the artist gave this particular Custodes Nahuatl-looking features, I'm guessing they were riffing on the design of the Shorn Ones, the partially-shaven elite soldiers who lived in the palace of the Aztec emperor.
Well, this girl not only was near to put a doomsday bomb on the Golden Throne, but even bring mayhem on the Community. Just for that the character have my respect and admiration
Doesn't her family lore dictate that the next in line will be imbued with all of her memories, though?
Yes, but she has to spend 100 years in the afterlife between each reincarnation. Touhou being the way it is though, that's not necessarily a dealbreaker for her being present in the story, though I also don't expect that she's actually going to die in canon.

If my memory was correct, her lifespan per reincarnation gets shorter and shorter. She will be dead eventually
So even the ASS club got involved, soon enough sensei will ran out of people that could save him from the mess he made that he has no choice but to contact Gematria just to get his ass out of Kivotos.
I mean, at this point, I expect even the whole of Gematria is seething with jealousy at this situation, well except for Beatrice, but I expect there to be a strip soon with Black Suit flaming with envy. Not to mention Wakamo hasn't shown up and we know how attached she is to sensei.
Just realized that L1, L2, and L3 which W Corp uses for rank are also used as suffixes for lines connecting electrical terminals, which is a nice little detail for electricians.
