@PrimalWarriorHR @HoodGuard Not directly, but it weakens their copyright if they don’t stop it. Which risks them losing the ability to go after 3D prints and knock-offs. And that would seriously hurt them.

@HashionDiscord It’s still trivially easy to proxy GW models on TTS if that’s all you’re interested in. If GW held off on enforcing their copyright that would actually very quickly become a net negative for them as they lose the right to go after 3D printed knock-offs who undercut them.

@_Plac3_hold3r @Torykbirdthrowa Very easy to do this manually in TTS. Adding properties to custom objects. Ballache to do it oneself but if you just want to play pickup games or practice comp, it’s still much cheaper and faster than getting a plastic army.

@WhatTheForkAVFC And then like the half a dozen drunkest angriest england fans square up to the half a dozen drunkest angriest americans and they start fighting and everyone else from both sides go to the bar together for another pint, unbothered. As it should be.

@HoodGuard I mean literally proxy on TTS. You can just load in a bunch of non-GW assets and play the game with those, right? Make a 32mm base and stick a space marine sized oblong on there.

@jirinemec67 @Kooshykooooooo It’s difficult to understate the awe at this majestic stupidity. Did you know that Irish and English people in real life live together, work together, drink together, and almost nobody has any actual beef? Internet yanks and plastic paddies won’t restart the Troubles.

@ChampionsOTIce In Halo, humanity only “won” the war because the Covenant decided to tear itself apart for no reason. In 40k the Imperium has already been doing that for ten thousand years.

@Eggtares @Omnipaints They have an obligation to enforce their copyright, or they risk losing it.

[whap 🌹 @WhapXI]

@MrAsgorath @Omnipaints You can probably see how “don’t have to pay for anything” makes this unappealing for the company, right? Also if you’re that serious about the game, can’t you just proxy the models?

@tadersalad46271 @nonregemesse In theory? Kind of? In practice you’ll almost certainly have a DEFRA-approved stove which allows you to burn whatever. Wood, coal, peat, anything. Plus the rules only apply in build up towns and cities, since there if everyone started pumping out woodsmoke, many would die.

@fernbirg There’s a sadness in those eyes that hasn’t been seen outside of 1910s military hospitals, radiating through heavy layers of bandages.

@aggzzx Nationalise UKTV Gold and launch a committee exploring the possibility of bringing back Scrapheap Challenge and I’m there.

@nyttypos @stoopkah @JasonKPargin Seems to me more like he wants Aunt Frizti to walk in on him being affectionate and attentive with Nancy.

@snaiImaiI Guy who sings a bunch of songs about what an irredeemable soul-dead husk he is turns out to have been a bad guy. Somehow still a shock to people.

@ChazakielDoremi Are you kidding? Don’t we all love that the space soldier, black hole scientist, alien ambassador, and president of earth all speak like an american nerd in their 20s-30s, and throw zingers at each other like a marvel movie?

@rw2711 Scotland’s not much better but there’s fewer of them. They just think it’s braveheart. At least they hate the english enough that they leave us alone except as a parody of something we don’t even recognise.
