Afternoon all.
Very quick skive from my overtime shift to bring you a pondering.
In short...
Dear Chaos
Where's all the gribbly mutations, matey?
Love and hugs
Mr Mystery.
Yep. They're just sort of....gone. And that's a shame. Consider World Eater Berserkers. For the most part, they've been knocking around since the Great Crusade - yet there's no real physical mutation. Same as Deathguard, same as Emperor's Children. I'm getting the feeling Ahriman might be looking around and feeling a bit of a mug as it seems the Rubric wasn't actually necessary at all.
So what gives? We've got the spikes. We've got the daemon blended stuff (which I like!)....but....nothing gribbly
Lookit what they used to have...
Unt my personal favourite
I get there's kind of a new, less riotous aesthetic, and that's fine - but surely there's space for both aesthetics within the range? I feel like the more uniform nature of Chaos models has stifled Chaos Creativity - I just don't see the interesting kit bashes I used to.
