      Yep.
      The tagline of 'in the future there is only war is quite fitting for the series.

        My list of things more disturbing than animal pelts in 40k:

        1.Exterminatus.

        I don't understand why we don't see more 40k on tweb:

        It's so much better than Star Wars, Star Trek, or Fire Fly. Sorry, but it has to be said.

          Dear PETA,

          How do you know about the fur in Warhammer? Unless of course you PLAY Warhammer, one of the most violent games there is, and you go around killing other players and participating in that violence. Hmm?

              They should write PETA back and say, "Don't worry, that's not fur they are wearing. It's scalps."

                People Eating Tasty Animals is at it again?


                Ya know, if God didn't want us to eat animals, He wouldn't have made them out of meat!
                The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                  Well originally he never intended us to eat meat at all.

                    If I ever meet somebody from PETA, I should say, "Nice to meat you!" and then laugh like it's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

                      I think they might murder you. They don't seem like joyous people.

                          Maybe back then the animals were made out of fruit and veggies!

                                LOL. Reaper Miniatures just posted a clarifying note regarding miniatures wearing fur:

                                With all the kerfluffle going on regarding fur on miniatures, we here at Reaper Miniatures would like to issue a brief statement regarding this deeply troubling issue.

                                We take this matter very seriously. We love our animal friends very much. This is why we have never, ever sculpted real fur onto any of our models. All fur depicted on any Reaper miniature is 100% synthetic "faux" fur. Any other type of fur depictions would just be irresponsible and unethical.

                                In the same vein, none of the leather textures on our models should be construed as leather, rather they should be interpreted as Naugahyde, or simply pleather. Nor should any flesh be considered flesh, but Soylent Green.


                                Again, we appreciate your time and thank you for your support.
