Now THIS I'm gonna order.
*amused snort*
my local gaming club has had the store they operate out of stock these shirts...
That's the worst piece of ****e (UK slang meaning a particularly ugly piece of clothing) I've ever seen. Not only is is barely comprehensible, its got about 15 different fonts on it. Thats some typical nerd **** right there, checks all the boxes, lack of self awareness, misplaced sense on intelligence, ugly as all hell.
Sometimes the truth hurts.Quote:

You may want to visit my incredibly helpful and informative 'Throwing Shapes in the Church of War' topic in the Tactics board. And feel free to contribute. It's a discussion, not a lecture.
The truth that one (historically inaccurate abstraction) is different from another (slightly less inaccurate idea)? Shocking.
The thing that hurts is the terrible design of that t shirt and the fashion sense of anyone lame enough to wear it. People can be butthurt about Age of Sigmar all they want, that doesn't excuse wearing a T Shirt that makes them look like the world's biggest dork. I'm just saying that no one could convict me for beating someone up in that shirt.
Imagine them trying to mumble through their sperg-fog to explain this abomination to someone who didn't care but happened to glance in horror at the clashing text and general lack of any aesthetic merit.
They could save time for the potential customers but impregnating it with a faint-to-middling aroma of cheese, unwashed armpit and Axe body spray and adding realistic food stains.
What does the matching Fedora look like? Does it have 7 different fonts on too?
This Fedora is different to this Trilby. Men's Rights Forever.

It wasn't irrational, you're just upset that you liked it and it's ****ing awful.Quote:

I still see overweight men with huge beer guts with their messenger bags that have anime girls on them.
Furthermore as Alaric noted it's a niche market shirt. It's not "fashion." Graphic tees are not "fashion" and neither are blue jeans (or sweat pants, but some sweat pants are fashion, it gets confusing fast, hell some blue jeans are fashion but that just means you paid more for them ;) ).
Like, for example, a story which comes to mind involves a person who went to a summer camp for ruby programming, in ruby a symbol is preceded by ":" as in php it would be preceded by "$" or something similar, essentially :variable would tell the code that variable is special, it's not just text, it's a symbol.
So one guy had a shirt which simply said ":SEX" which, if you know ruby, you read it as "Sex Symbol"
Pretty clever, no? Well to everyone who doesn't know ruby (most people) it reads as "colon sex" and that's got a lot of different connotations than "sex symbol".
So yes, you're welcome to wear this ugly shirt (it's pretty funny though) and declare your love for an unsupported, dead tabletop fantasy wargame which was a small part of a niche hobby.
I'm just surprised that people are paying this much money for a junk t-shirt, I would think that given how much complaining I hear about prices people wouldn't be so quick to pay so much for a t-shirt and instead would focus on better value buys at local establishments :P
Clothes are not a medium for jokes. Especially crap ones that nerds think are clever.

Which is pretty funny though as all GW systems are pretty much unsupported compared to KoW. And to see AoS as more as a "small part of a niche hobby" would also be bold.Quote:

Yeah that kings of war sure is well supported. With it's total lack of any fun game play.
You've never played Kings of War I'm assuming.
and are you're obviously either trolling or ignorant. Mantic don't support their games, they Kickstart them, release a half-arsed product and have moved on the next Kickstarter before anyone even gets everything they paid for.
