Yeah it’s not as if fake muscles on your armor added extra protection but both the greeks and the romans had it anyway

Well we don’t really know if it was necessity or not.

We know that it’s most likely fashion, as codpieces are not only found on armor but also common clothing

I know this is 40k art and all that but I’m glad that the carapace armour is armour and doesn’t feature tactical high heels with tiddy plates to show my character’s xxl honkers

truth be told whenever someone complains that sororitas and female arbites/guardsmen aren’t as heavily sexualised in art anymore I find myself wondering if they actually care about suspension of disbelief or if they just want to goon

EDIT: I just want to add after reading more of the thread, there’s a few attempts to imply that the devs have deviated from the ‘intended’ design of female arbites.
arbites on the tabletop are almost entirely androgynous besides their chins and all wear the same armour

well, i’d get horny too when i
“crush my enemies
see them driven before me
and hear the lamentations of their women”

so yeah, boner-armor makes sense to me :saluting_face:

Maybe it has offensive purpose. i.e. You can 2 hand grab someone’s head and you don’t have to force their head down and lose balance by bringing up your knee, just crack their skull on the boner piece of armour.

or an arbites

never said it was, nor do i care about current table top.

what i’m saying i prefer the old, sexualized artwork cause i enjoy hot chicks.

oh my bad fair enough

can you extrapolate on this a little bit?

that depends if you were around in the 80s/90s, cause compared to todays “i’m offended” its pretty self explainatory :rofl:

come to think, the “offended crowd” still get the same treatment from me, so my time capsule is still intact :joy:

My question to FS is,

Why is Sefoni the only NPC on the Morningstar (That we can see) that has an actual female figure?

3 Likes

Because she is witch

So you are saying that Sefoni and not the female Veteran, Zealot, Psyker should look like an actual female?
Oh and Sefoni as an Astronomican does not have the correct detail anyway, like FS where is her “Warp Eye”

Sefoni is an astropath, you’re mixing her up with the Navigator, which is this guy:
