Hammer and Bolter

Half the series was my cup of tea , one episode i gave up in 3 min.

I like it gave me an idea what the warhammer world is about. I knew nothing about it and i like the craziness .

Recommended.

If you dont know any of the lore or haven't read the books etc you probably wont understand a thing that is going on. The animation is nothing to shout about. It is just random stories that have nothing to do with any other episodes in the series.

If you know nothing about Warhammer 40k then dont waste your time with this.

It is unfortunate that such a good story telling, and all the charachter development goes to waste. We 40k fans are basically thirsty for any sort of content and we apreciate it. This was grim dark indeed, but the lack of good animation and cheap production which is outcome of the terrible GWs ways resulted in having an average show which would have been much more. Frankly GW is one of the worst companies (if not the worst) when it comes to fan support. That being said I apreciate GW being so strict on the lore, not making it woke or soft or just chaning it toward's nowadays media test; but this is not enough. GW... I say this in the most humble of manners, I have never seen an IP in which the fans and the copy-right owner are so separated, People love the IP which great passion, yet most of the fans utterly hate GW. I know you like money and all, but making 40k fans hate you is not the way to go. In the past you have done shocking blow to the fandom and content creators, that cant be forgotton. But there is still hope, you can make money and make peace with the fans if only you change your ways a bit. In any case, I am looking forward to see any 40k content, hope it gets better in the future.

It's a different animation style and one which allows GW to produce much more content as it's far cheaper than the styles in Astartes or Angels of Death. It's the kind of thing I've dreamed of since I got into 40k in the mid 90s so I'm loving it.

As another review said, and I think it's valid, is this it at times feels more like a slideshow than actual animation.

Each episode is a different story sometimes they are fun other times they are very serious so the tonal shifts are all over the place. Apart from the fact that they are all in the 40K universe, there just isn't enough of a through line of character to explain it as an anthology. Angels of Death is better and shows how bargain basement this is but that's hardly perfect either.

Most fan films for Warhammer are better than this.
