Do i like Warhammer 40k?

Is the emperor immortal?!
Is the only good xeno a dead xeno?!

Damn right!

I like the games and i used to like the Tabletop but it was too much of a money sink for me, I used to Collect guard, but its cheaper to play the guard in DoW and way more fun. The original games are my favourite, the new DoW2 Game..Hmmm.. I like what they were trying to do but i've played Too much Men Of War, im spoilt with Realism. Also the lack of playable guard annoys me, i should pick up the expansion pack with choas but i haven't gotten around to it yet, dont really see the point unless someone here recommends it?

I love the fluff and i love the books, i've been reading gaunts ghosts latley, The Saint Omnibus is Epic.

I thought that the emperor died...

Yes, I do like it. It is a cool universe that I can in no way, ever, afford. PC RTS gaming will have to suffice.

I like the fluff, kinda. Not enough to read any of the books or anything, but it's a fun universe.

Don't really like the game. Other tabletop miniatures games have more tactical choice involved in army choice and on the tabletop. 40k is all just a bit obvious and dull.

Of course I like 40K, I used to collect dark eldar, now I'm down to merely enjoying the universe and literature, since I don't have time for four hour long battles...do kinda miss it though...

Not quite. He's been on life support for then thousand years.

Yeah, it's pretty entertaining. And Kharne is a pretty great guy.

Hell yes!

Eldar are my favourite as you can tell... I love reading the books and I'd like to start playing again as soon as I have money.

Pretty much this, although I did read a bunch of the books. Problem with 40k, though, is that "In the grimdark grimdark of the grimdark grimdark, there is only grimdark" gets really old after a while.

I haven't played it for a while, but I still like it, yeah!

For the Inquisition! Purge the enemy without, the enemy within and the enemy beyond!

I'm really into the lore, and I've read heaps of the books. I'm too poor to collect models, although I have a few Iron Warriors that I picked up after reading Storm of Iron. But yeah, I definitely like 40k.

Certainly. Never played the tabletop, but I am obsessed with the fluff - I think I have nearly all of the existing novels. The Dawn of War games (both of them) are great, too.

read the ciaphas cain novels- they actually have a good amount of humour in, unlike most (i.e all) the other 40k non ork fluff.

I have NEVER played the game, but I had a friend back in michigan that was very close to obsessed with the game. I think I've heard just about everything there is to know about it. I like what I've heard, and the idea behind it, but having never played, eh, I dunno.

Still, I call Eldar if we do play!
