[Excerpt] [Dan Abnett’s Hive] Labor unions exist outside of Genestealer or Chaos control, and they’re basically essential for survival in Sacramentus’s primary Hive

>>!The Guild did what it could to look after its members, and protect the interests of all Neg toilbonds. Respectable members and representatives, like old Bella, were sometimes allowed to attend Low Council meetings or civic assembles, to request more water allowances, or an air flush, or better wages. Such things were tolerated by the Hive councils, regarded as a necessary expression of social complaint, but such requests were seldom honored.!<

>!We get a little more info about the various groups arrayed against these workers’ communes below:!<

>>!The rallies, the rabble-rousing, the toilhalt (strike) actions, and, occasionally, acts of vandalism and sabotage. All were put down hard by the reeves, the ORPO grueks, and the HiveDef militia, but the councils and the Lowhabbers and the Overdwellers and most of all, the Administratum, knew that the Guild seethed below, a mounting pressure that gathered in the vents. Sometimes, it had to be slacked off and eased. Sometimes, it lit, and rushburned.!<

It is worth mentioning that ORPO is the same acronym used by Nazi Germany to refer to their Ordnungspolizei, or their uniformed, domestic police force, so the political subtext is about as heavy as a brick through a cop car‘s window.

Painted a T’au Guerilla for my Genestealer Cult, and made more using spare bits. I no longer play T’au, but more bodies is always a good thing!

I've currently gone from 155lbs to 149, fluctuating between 150-149. I've been trying to slim down my portions and cut down on constant sugar (my main goal was to stop drinking sugary coffee every morning, which I've done).

I've been doing basic deadlifts at the gym 3 days a week for about 3 weeks now, and bench presses/barbell rows, but I haven't yet seen much visible muscle despite a month passing, and my stomach persists in sticking out when I'm not engaging my abdominal muscles and holding it in. I can't run due to a leg disability, but I try to walk at least 2-5 miles four days of the week.

What else should I be doing for better results? I'm trying to aim for 140lbs, but I'm currently just weightlifting.

I initially collected a T’au army for 5 years coming into the hobby, but progressively got bored as it felt like a pure shooting army with some mild movement in the form of Breachers plus Devilfish.

My Genestealer Cults army can do a lot of shenanigans, melee, charging, psychic, deep strike. Is there any way to replicate a more wacky or unusual list? I know Kroot is an option, but don’t remember the melee being especially noteworthy or good. I’m afraid that if I collect the army again, I’ll get bored due to a lack of activity due to only using a single phase for shooting.

Selling a mildly kitbashed Genestealer Guard lot, tanks have Genestealer sigils which can be removed, nothing is primed.

Solar Auxilia Leman Russ has a magnetized Genestealer commander, as does the Dorn. The Leman Russ also has an upgrade sprue of guns and a dozer blade, plus upgrades.
