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.

It seems like this was dropped on WHTV rather unceremoniously. I didn't realize it was out until I saw a YouTube thumbnail about it. Anyways has anyone else watched it? What did you think? I was pretty disappointed in it. I thought the writing and acting was pretty terrible and it felt incredibly stilted with the constant breaks throughout to announce a new chapter of a 22 minute episode. What were there, like six? That felt ridiculous and pretentious.

Anyways what did you think?

I agree about the chapters, they felt misguided for how short the episode was. Again it has the feel of people who were brand new to story telling. I'm glad GW is at least trying to make some shows to tell stories in this interesting universe the have, but hopefully the teams they have get better over time.

I'm just happy the Sororitas is wearing her helmet! But yes, you may be right about the guardswoman, it feels 100% impossible that the guardswoman would see the Sister fighting and not jump in to help. So probably just a goading figure in her head.
