No, I do not have any faction or tone preferences. Im only concerned with writing quality and entertainment. I did read the Infinite and the Divine and greatly enjoyed it.
Another book that I enjoyed but don't ever see anyone else mention was Warlord: Fury of the God-Machine. The main character is an experienced Princeps of a Warlord titan; the book also reveals one of Khornes lesser known qualities: the God of Blood is a fully qualified civil engineer. Who knew?
 
New Auspex Tactics video going over the competitive scene and what's being played right now as the first few 11th edition tournaments roll in.
Yeah, its a shit show as expected. Some of the win rates are absolutely meaningless due to being so under-represented but outside of ATC you're also going to get screwy results from shit like

"Oh, I got my ass kicked as a space wolves player and gave up early in 10th edition, now with a new edition it's my time to shine!" is a player archetype that'll be out there grinding GTs for a few weeks until they continue to lose, give up, and quit again having learned nothing. There was also similar shit with necrons at the start of 10th where people lost their minds with c'tan as if they were unkillable boogiemen that no one could do anything about, until they realized cheap mass 1 damage fire that they couldn't reduce to 0 was the way to kill them.

"the meta" just isn't worth caring about unless you're already within the top couple percent of players at this point.

If you think about it, he's the god of blood and skulls, but not the god of industrial or building collapse accidents. Berserker raging retards like the world eaters give him a bad rap. He doesn't really care how the blood flows, but he'd prefer it if it were in honorable combat. It kinda makes sense.

Considering how many chinese are crushed under buildings or indians are eaten by trains, I'd say Khorne considers these apex predators honorable warriors just like any other. Imagine the infrustracture nightmares that space indians or space chinese cook up.

Building bathrooms just to shit in the street, clearly nurgle. People going out of their way to make cinderblocks out of dirt but with a concrete shell with tin rebar is some tzeentch shit.

Explains why the Blood Pact have so many weapons: they regularly sacrifice chinks to their factory lathes.

Hive seems interesting and so does Dark Imperium. I must have been operating under the wrong assumption as I thought the Guilliman stuff was confined to scourcebook/rulebook publications. Thanks friend.
Anything by Guy Haley has been a breath of fresh air when it comes to black library writing. He has great characterization and his nurgle dark imperium work is superb. If you think of how jovial and gleeful yet unholy and vile the great unclean one in dow2 is he nails it perfectly.

If you want something less serious and more humorous read his cawl material because Cawl is the perfect counterpart to trazyn. Showy with a need for drama, totally irreverent and reckless and ocassionaly haunted by the same choices he makes on a whim. Guy Haley should infact be the only person permitted to write Cawl.

The left sees brown skin and literally cannot conceive of anything other than "oh bless my lucky stars, a NEGRO."

As someone on twitter pointed out Sigmarxism likes to paint up Salamanders as Niggermarines, complete with greenstuff dreadlocks and the like... but since they only read the tvtropes and wikipedia pages they forget the red glowing eyes.

While the chinese are clearly tzeenchian I can make a case for Indians being the paragon of Chaos Undivided.

>scammy call centers and the like for Tzeentch
>rape and excess of cow shit for slaanesh
>brown and doo doo dyssentary for Nurgle
>their constant suicides and getting crushed by trains and stuff for Khorne (who cares not from where the blood flows, only that it does)

Even izzat seems like a chaos worthy system. The entire thing is about saving face regardless of the truth or who's correct and totally fucking your underlings over the slightest bit of advantage (or not advantage at all).

If someone painted Abbadon as Indian with the Poopclaw that would be very funny.

Take any Indian juggernaut, reimagine it as a juggernaut to khorne. Keep the part where it crushes Indians beneath its giant wheels.

Someone out there has a great idea to win a golden daemon now.
