Does GW even realise that there are other chaos gods apart from Khorne?

Why does every chaos based expansion or scenario or whatever have to be based around Khorne? He's one of the least interesting chaos gods, and that's probably just because he's so familiar and ordinary, we know what all of his units are going to look like and how they fight and everything about them so why not focus on another god for a change? They all seem more interesting or at least have the potential for more interesting stories and models than Khorne

Because he's the most family friend and easy to write.
>>
>>45278678
Tzeentch is way more family friendly
>>
>>45278626
Because Warhammer is for 13 year old boys and Khorne has the most appeal to them.
>>
The models are done before the new stories get written. If, for whatever reason, the design team comes up with more khorne stuff, they will focus with their campaigns on khorne.
I don't like it, but I guess we have to live with it until enough stuff is ready for, lets say, a nurgle wave.

That would be Slaanesh because naked girls with big titties

Khorne wears red, it looks good fighting guys wearing blue.

>>45278789
This actually. Let it be known that Khorne is also the Chaos God of Meh.
>>
Khorne is the most popular, so he's the only one

He's also the easiest to write and design.
>>
Because Warhammer is about people fighting each other and Khorne is the God of Fighting.

>>45278781
Slaanesh is too subtle for 99% of the fanbase to understand.
>>
>>45279306
yeah, its kinda interesting that slaanesh is the most seductive of the gods because it gives you exactly what you want.
>>
>>45279439
Slaanesh doesn't give you want you want, it dangles a carrot in front of you until the day you die, to keep you endlessly chasing new highs until you burn out.
>>
>>45279549
yeah, and you think you are getting what you want.
Want to be a sexbomb?
Slaanesh has got you covered, only you rot from the inside and end up becoming a trap.
Want to be a super speshul "nothing personell kid" tier swordsman.
Slaanesh gets you covered.
then you end up buggering yourself with your sword because it is the only feeling you get.
>>
>>45279582

Fulgrim's still a handsome snakeman who fucks bitches and doesn't afraid of anything.

That being said every Slaanesh model on sale is ugly so no wonder people aren't interested. Tzeentch at least has power combos.
>>

>Fulgrim's still a handsome snakeman who fucks bitches and doesn't afraid of anything.
He's not that handsome anymore, m8.
>>
>>45279697
>Tzeentch
Oh God, please don't feed the tzeentch people.

I have enough to deal with in my local mono tzeentch player who constantly cackles as if crazy, and always, ALWAYS ends his enemies turn with "just as planned", regardless of how the game is going. He can literally have a single flamer on the table after his opponent had his turn, and he then starts his turn with "hehehehe just as planned!"

Fucks sake man, I don't want more of his kind around.
>>
>>45279795
C'mon m8, let him have his fun.
>>
>>45279795
so are tzeench players the fedora tippers of 40k?

Better than my generic neckbeards that do their rolls, react emotionally to nothing, and go "alright your turn"

I think you might be retarded.

Because red, and the rawr smash motif is what retards and manchildren respond to.

Too be fair, the AoS khorne stuff came after a fairly big set of Nurgle themed shit.
>>
>>45278626
So ORder got an upgrade with their fantasy space marine equivalents, did chaos warriors also get juiced up somehow?
>>
>>45281588
The new Chaos models got the same "bigger with more flashy bitz" treatment just about anything new in AoS has gotten. The blood warriors look pretty cool, really, by being essentially fancier Khornate chaos warriors without going full retarded like some of their other stuff.
>>
>>45280251
This man gets it. I'm sure once the aelves story progresses and Slannesh is aroused, we will get some new models. Could really use an updated lord on mount and KoS. Maybe some CW upgrade packs, I don't know. A few specialized models would be awesome too.
>>
>>45279795
That's the funniest shit ever
>>
>>45281737
>Slannesh is aroused
I see what you did there.
>>
This. I wish Slaanesh would get more love from GW. He seems to be forgotten about and severely underrated. He's probably the most evil and insidious of the Chaos gods in how he works.
>>

>you will never play against him with your cadians and Usakar E. Creed

>more interesting stories and models

You proceed from a false premise:

GW dgaf whether you live or die. Try and wrap your little mind around how much LESS THEN they must care whether you - or anyone - condone their decisions. You may as well ask,

"Why can't the guys making my favorite toys act like a real company?"

Because they are not now, and have never pretended to be, run like a real corporation. Just accept this, stop stressing and read the Serenity Prayer.

Isn't Khaela Mensha Khaine the god of war? I thought Khorne was the god of bloodletting.
>>
>>45278626
god that art is bad... I've seen worse from AoS though. The horror... the horror
>>
>>45282130
Khorne and Khaine are both gods of war, Khorne is just the God of blood, carnage, and other attributes of war, so I guess he is more universal. Khaine is like an aspect of Khorne.

Well, he's already been deleted from Fantasy with Age of Sigmar, so I doubt GW likes him much. Probably got too many complaints from the parents of their teenage target audience about a "god of sex and drugs", inaccurate though that may be. I feel like Slaaneesh is gonna get BTFO by Ynnead soon after which he'll no longer be supported.
>>
>>45279853
Fairly sure I didn't refer to himself as retarded, anon.
>>
>>45283026
Slaanesh has more screen time in AoS than he ever did in fantasy, where his only achievements were sigvald and having his minions lose constantly to the elves
>>
>>45283026
He's not been deleted, just missing for now. His servants and daemons are still around. The Dark Prince will return at one point or someone will take over but the only real contender could be Morathi and I don't see it happening. If it happens I'll start Slaaneshi/Morathi army right away.

>>45281934
>implying this wasn't the tacitcuhl jinyas that worked out just as planned
>>
>>45284108
Yeah, but not over his daemons and servants. Pain, pleasure and excess used to fuel Slaanesh in the same way blood fuels Khorne and change fuels Tzeentch. Who is fueled by slaaneshi things now? I'm pretty sure it's not the Hoined Rat.
>>
>>45278626
Nurgle is shit, Tzeentch's colors clash with the Stormcast, and Slaanesh would bump the rating up to an R
>>
>>45285244
dubs of truth, nurgle is the worst.
>>
>>45278626
Khorne is supremely easy to grasp, looks most like the classical red skinned, horned Demon, and is the most family friendly (once you take away all the bodily mutilation).

Also because he's the God most interested in straight up combat.

Nurgle is the most fun to paint. You can make each model disgusting in it's own unique way.
>>
>>45278626
God of warfare.

Over represented in a war-game.

Who'd a thunk it?
>>
>>45278626
Well, you see a bloodletter or bloodthirster and you know that you are fighting evil demons. Also works to a certain extent with Nurgle and zombies. But what is some dude supposed to think about some mass of tentacles that spit fire or some ugly, nacked girls with crab claws running around.
>>
Blue vs Red is a nice color contrast.


Alternatively HERESY vs BLOOD is perfect for you memespouting aspie manchildren that make up the 40k fanbase.
>>
>>45284204
This so much. Sometimes it gets too obnoxious on /tg/ even.
