    Custodes can be girls now.
    "No! That's not what it said in the old codex!"
    Even if that is what it said, the old Codex is old, it doesn't matter anymore.
    "Nu-uh! The old stuff is still in the lore, everyone still knows it!"
    What makes you think the old lore matters? 35 years ago, there were no Primarchs, or Tyranids, and the Ultramarines Chief Librarian was Half-Eldar, is that what we're still doing?
    "Of course it matters, but it's been added to over the last 35 years, that's all!"
    So adding to the lore is perfectly fine, just like they have added female Custodes?
    "That's not adding something new, that's changing what it used to be!"
    So adding something isn't the same as changing it? And adding Tyranids retroactively is perfectly fine but adding girls isn't because...?
    "They... I..."
    Call me crazy, but I'm starting to think that this isn't really about the game at all.

    Obviously not aimed at CG, but pretty much a demonstration of the 'discourse' I have seen on Twitter. Which, incidentally, is pretty much the only place I have seen where people have a problem with this. F'in weirdos.

    Definitely a good axe and cape, and maybe you can fill in the chainmail pauldron with green stuff to look more dense. With new legs and maybe a tabard, I can see it work just fine. Still not a fan of the shield, too obviously medieval/fantasy but that's just a matter of taste easily resolved.
