That's a good one, if a bit understated. Always love a look inside the head of a Stormcast.

Is the Beast of Chaos v. Maggotkin deployment question a reference to the infamous Kroot versus White Scars 7th edition tourney pic?
lol

but this was not really a "rules as written" problem but one guy thought he was being smart by taking a full reserve "beta" strike army but the other guy was smarter

I haven't heard of that one. But you can float dice in heavily salted water. If the dice is weighted it will always roll so the weight is downwards.
A guy at an event was accused of having weighted dice and when they came to test his dice, he ran to the restroom and tried to flush them and the weighted dice were too heavy to flush away.

Looks like a legit roll to me! If anything, the alleged run for the border is more damning than that roll. I haven't played in tourneys or even events in many years; is the tourney trial by ordeal a recent addition?!?!? In this case, if his innocence is proved by the toilet roll I'd be more curious if he wanted to fish out the dice for further use...

The dice being too heavy to flush actually proves his guilt.

well, i assumed that it would be coming out in january, and if not that, at least close to the 40k dataslate, which was over a week ago. they never confirmed anything, but in january social media people were saying "soon", so it feels odd that it's a bit delayed in comparison

An even funnier read is all the comments on the Facebook post - lots of whining about the missing Battlescroll.
Some solid humor in that thread though. Got the American Psycho "Let's See Paul Allen's Business Card(Warscroll)" meme, The Titanic "Its been 84 years" .gif, A Groundhog Day photoshop meme, the instant classic "Pablo Escobar staring into space" meme. Its a good laugh!
The short story was a good read. Looking forward to more Daughters of Khaine civil war developments. Would Krethusa the Croneseer be a better ally to Order, or somehow worse than Morathi-Khaine?

Well she seems to actively seek out the Cities judging by some photos. But i have to imagine the biggest way she could screw over Morathi is by just being honest.

I suppose that all depends on whether or not Morai-Heg is actually Tzeentch up to his usual tricks...
