So I regularly see some confusion about the OG female Space Marine models so let's do story time:
So before Warhammer was a thing Games Workshop started as a small miniature producer for tabletop RPGs that expanded into minature wargames as a way to get people to buy more minis.

The early 00s Newgrounds humor doesn't help keep the cringe dorks away.

Also, I find it funny that Spaceking has female space marines being cannon cause of the joke yet people (like in the image) use that as a way to say that 40k shouldn't have them cause "Girls iky" like it's a 80s tree house (I know it's more malicious than that for a lot of them).

What a cringe little dork.

Also the Spaceking fans are turning out to be just as annoying as Rick and Morty fans.

No, I don't mean "people who like Rick and Morty" I mean the "fans" who would harass McDonald's employees over fucking nugget sauce.

Yeah. Plus the explosion isn't that useful honestly

They shoot Helldivers and supplies out of the ships like bullets.

For those who don't play, blue beacons always drop right where the beacon is when the pod spawns in. That makes it a weaponized pod if you know how to aim it.
