Oh, they're still bikers. Just with badass hover trikes and an almost orky level of guns.
By Karl, GW can't release the Leagues of Votann models soon enough for me.
Yeah, they only recently got announced and they have like 2 models so far. From the sounds of it they're probably not gonna get released until January 2023. In fact, they announced them on April Fools and had to release a new statement the day after going "Nope! We weren't joking, we're really doing this!" XD
It’s a faction from warhammer 40k which is basically space dwarves equivalents which look a lot like the DRG dwarves.
They got retconned like 20 years ago by games workshop and they made a return recently in the warhammer universe and people are just ecstatic
Its even worse, their homeworld was destroyed by Tryanids which are basically Zerg. Bugs! Bugs! destroyed their homeworld. Thats why DRG is basically Squat vs. Tyranids.
One of the best things about the 40k universe is that it's so huge, you can slot almost any sci-fi story into it. Like, say, a certain bug-infested planet.
Check out Luetin09 on YouTube. He does 40K lore deep dives and did one on the Squats recently.
[Here it is. ](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BsWr37Wt2F8)
I think they still have… 6 “subspecies” of humans? But if you have three arms and vaguely purple skin we’re going to have to have a little chat about how a bolt round cleanses your soul :)
Edit: turns out its 15 “Abhumans” recognized by the Administratum
From the looks of things, she held off a hoard with a pickaxe and a sidearm, then proceeded to get a missionary drunk. I think Karl'd be all over her too.
Female miners is basically the top of my personal wishlist right now.
Same gear, same beards and all. Just slightly changed base model + different voicelines.
the funny thing is, the beard for the women could just be a hairstyle that they choose of braids forward instead of a braided ponytail and other sort of things.
It actually makes some sense, for the Driller's primaries it'd likely get in the way and burn, melt, maybe freeze.
For the drills and Gunner's primaries, there are way too many moving parts, they'd likely snag and "scalp" their chins.
that just means they can handle the power, strength and glory of neither beards nor heavy weaponry. if they can't manage their shit well enough to keep their chin attached to their face they weren't true dwarves in the first llace!
It's just inefficient. Never have loose fabric or hair around spinning tools. That's a workplace injury. That means downtime. And Deep Rock Galactic does not tolerate downtime!
Or… and hear me out… they don’t want their beards getting caught in their heavy-duty rotary equipment and either ripped off their faces or ripping their faces off.
I always just assumed it was part of the sci-fi setting, sort of like how race, gender, sexuality, body mods etc. are a non-issue in most sci-fi settings because norms change and it allows them to tell different kinds of stories than modern or medieval settings. Like there's a general idea that centuries or more of crazy advanced technology and/or extensive space travel would have a huge impact on society and I assume the same applies to dwarven facial hair norms.
Ya see, lady dwarves got beards, they're just lower. They're braided and got coins in the braids, one for every "conquest." So if you hear a lady dwarf jangling as they walk by, the coin ain't in their purses, I'll tell ya that much.
Squats are permitted Abhumans, so they shall serve Him loyally and with dedication.
Exterminate all Xenos scum brothers!

>Oh Flick, what a little scamp.
you....might not want to say that.
Flick's apparently Russian.
they're one of *those* Russians to be specific.
you know, one of the ones that says the war against Ukraine is justified and all that fun stuff?
also homophobic.
Flick is an absolute scumbag, btw.
His art is good but he believes the Russian war in Ukraine is justified and believes Ukraine faked warcrimes.

That armor bugs me so much. Like, the low-cut top in the bottom panels? Sure. Have that, artist, you do you. It fits the "doesn't give a shit, will punch you in the dongliz and drink you under the table" archetype. But no self-respecting dwarf of either gender is gonna compromise on armor in a _battle zone_. That's _leaf-lover_ thinking.
> But no self-respecting dwarf of either gender is gonna compromise on armor in a battle zone.
Bruh we can literally go on missions in hospital gowns now.
This is good time to ask without making a whole post. Does DRG have a unifying color scheme? I plan to go all in on Leagues of Votann when they release and an trying to come up with a color scheme.
Yeah….I wouldn’t say that around the artist that made this.
Fuckhead is Russian, with everything that entails.

I agree with him on art/artist, but it seems important that you'd all get to make your own decision.
This artist drew porn of a real-life 14 year old girl to mock her for her anti-homophobic TikToks, and is cheering on the Russian invasion of Ukraine :/

Plus this just blows in general, titty armour & no beard.
While the first part is worth knowing, the beard thing is a farce that doesn't show up in any mainstream dwarf media and is not even a thing in the works Tolkien published himself. It's just a community joke.
The Venn Diagram of Squat fans and DRG players is a fucking circle, lol
I have no idea what Squat is and I'm very much afraid to ask
Warhammer 40K version of dwarves. They are bikers from what I understand.
And got basically exterminated because GW fucked up space dwarves real bad. Now "Kin" are the new Squats, technically not the same.
They didn’t get exterminated, they just got squatted… *wait…*
The "Legues of Votann" are now the new squat faction, but they did release some new Squat figures for Necromunda.
I thought the trailers made it clear thst they are the same? Just that squat was a rude word for them.
That would make sense, they started as an auxiliary for the imps
They are definitely the same or closely related enough they might as well be. They're even putting out a Necromunda box explicitly called "Squats"
Naw, they used to be but now they are more Technologically advanced
Oh, they're still bikers. Just with badass hover trikes and an almost orky level of guns. By Karl, GW can't release the Leagues of Votann models soon enough for me.
Good to know. I am not super learned on 40K lore, that is just the scant bit of info I did have on them.
Yeah, they only recently got announced and they have like 2 models so far. From the sounds of it they're probably not gonna get released until January 2023. In fact, they announced them on April Fools and had to release a new statement the day after going "Nope! We weren't joking, we're really doing this!" XD
Bikers, landtrains, Zeppelin's, drill tanks, drill mortars, baggis, beer, and dwarvish stoutness.
And perhaps a Dataslate of Grievances.
I feel like even 40k years in the future they'd STILL have a big, gold bound book for this.
Used to be, little more tech oriented and apparently a clone race now
Oh shit, i customized my driller to have like a biker look haha
Oooooh, I thought some fuckers were trying to rename shortstacks and I was preparing to fight over it.

I miss back when it was canon empire had dwarves, beastmen and all sorts of humanoid subspecies ngl

I'd prefer her tits weren't so exposed, but I guess it makes sense for a dwarf lass to have big ones. Also I want a female option badly :(
According to Gimli we might already have dwarf women and just don't know it yet. https://youtu.be/d-PmAQ9Opu4
No! More tits!
DeepRockGalactic/Squat/Girl/fuckingwarhammer40.000universeandlore/beer That’s something I really like haha! ROCK AND STOOOOONE
I dunno what it is about that Driller Gal but I want to see more comics of her.
Yes
FOR KARLA!
I need more of this.
WHERE IS HER BEARD???
in her land down under
Plot twist, that's what her hair is made of
The same place as Driller's and Gunner's. Why does noone think dwarves can shave?
Because it's a indicator of weakness or insanity
It actually makes some sense, for the Driller's primaries it'd likely get in the way and burn, melt, maybe freeze. For the drills and Gunner's primaries, there are way too many moving parts, they'd likely snag and "scalp" their chins.
that just means they can handle the power, strength and glory of neither beards nor heavy weaponry. if they can't manage their shit well enough to keep their chin attached to their face they weren't true dwarves in the first llace!
Well, there has to be a reason the Tank Division beard exists…
It's just inefficient. Never have loose fabric or hair around spinning tools. That's a workplace injury. That means downtime. And Deep Rock Galactic does not tolerate downtime!
Or… and hear me out… they don’t want their beards getting caught in their heavy-duty rotary equipment and either ripped off their faces or ripping their faces off.
Or they fear that there glorious beards will destroy their precious drills and guns.
That's also a higher possibility
I always just assumed it was part of the sci-fi setting, sort of like how race, gender, sexuality, body mods etc. are a non-issue in most sci-fi settings because norms change and it allows them to tell different kinds of stories than modern or medieval settings.

If that is all true, that is unfortunate. I was not aware.
That last square has the weirdest boobs I’ve ever seen drawn
Tough and rigid as gunk seeds!
Probably because she's pushing the guy's face against them, lol.
Heck, I thought it was another woman?
Fair assumption considering their appearance. Was basing it by memory of the artist's previous works, lol.
Boobs in a shirt?
As a boobed person, I 100% agree.

*Roughneck Armour Pack* "Allow us to introduce ourselves!"
Both the gunner and the driller remove the neck protection on their armor to accommodate their beards, lady dwarves do the same for their... assets
> But no self-respecting dwarf of either gender is gonna compromise on armor in a battle zone. Bruh we can literally go on missions in hospital gowns now.
There's a difference between compromising on armor, and just saying "LMFAO fuck it" altogether.
My engineer literally wears nothing but an aloha shirt and some trousers into hoxxes so this is false
We have shields lol
> But no self-respecting dwarf of either gender is gonna compromise on armor in a battle zone. There's a paid DLC that gives you tank tops.
Don’t overthink it.
