A 'woke' gender row has broken out among Games Workshop fantasy fans after women were added to an army squadron for the first time.

The official Warhammer account responded by posting: 'Since the first of the Ten Thousand were created, there have always been female Custodians.' It went on to say: 'The introduction of a canonically female member of the Custodes is being seen by fans as a conscious narrative shift on GW’s part.'

That lie is part of an insidious malignant ideology that throws away all reason and fact. That is the part that is dangerous.'

'As multiple people point out: The Sisters of Battle and Sisters of Silence already exist as powerfully portrayed female factions. They are under-represented and nobody would actually mind if anyone wanted to improve them.'
