how they got away with this

It was a tradition that really took off in 70s.
>>
>>46713969
And so Tolkien, what's your point?
>>
>>46714001
Tolkine was explicitly writing a mythological pastiche. GW and most fantasy writers of 70s-80s weren't.

>Furry continent has ''Lust'' in its name

>>46713969
Got away? With you here, bringing the hammer of judgment down on them? I imagine they dearly regret the day they decided to do what they did.
>>
>>46713969
Once upon a time GW wasn't serious buznus. Once upon a time GW was parody on top of parody on top of parody.

>>46713969
Got away with making a fantasy version of Earth with a microcosm of the WH40K universe? OP, it's ok to admit it, you're retarded aren't you?
>>
isn't warhammer fantasy and 4ok satire ?

>>46713969

Did you just find out today or something?

>>46714332
No but Age of Sigmar is definitely a joke

>>46714037
>the humid and hot new world full of asexual lizardmen cities covered in gold and gems is called lustria for being lustrous
>>
>>46713969
And I plan to run The Enemy Within campaign so I don't care!
>>
>>46714032

If anything they were writing more so that with fantastical historical events, war fluff and even less characters.
>>
>>46713969
Because everyone at the time was like "oh hey this is a neat and fairly unused idea."
>>
I used the Imperial Knight Household generation table and because of the interactions between the legendary figure bit and the rest of the household detailes ended up with Joan of Arc in space with a giant mech and an anime as fuck plot structure.
>>
>>46713969
Because you can't copyright Earth's geography?
