"Happy St. Leonidas Day.
Tradition at this day - cut out bloody lambdas from body of fallen Persians and gift those to brothers at arms.
Leonidas' tip of a day: spend this evening dining with Spartan brothers... IN HELL!"

Ancient 8 years old joke.

Loving this new aesthetic for Slaanesh! It’s very much the Persians from 300 and I’m all about it. I’ll definitely be painting up the Direchasm models and maybe a Warcry war band too! https://t.co/6sEbrBsSkI
