Warhammer 40k

[Scorched_Cascade]

I haven't posted any images in a while so I'm feeling itchy here's some relevant ones I just found:

Hey at least we actually have woman in our army

The Sisters of Battle would like to have a word with you.

Arent sisters kept seperate from IG and space marines?

Only when the Commissars arent looking

When the Commissars aren't looking? The 40kverse Imperium are implied to be very depraved behind closed doors, I'd imagine the Commissars are no exception:

Spoiler: pics relevant

Imperial Guard (very rarely is there a problem that cannot be solved with a few billion lasguns and two large buckets of dice)

Spoiler: Imperial Guard humour

My personal chaos related favourites:

Spoiler: Word Bearers

Good, now that's out my system. I can get back in character.

I'm in the middle of a Dark Heresy campaign (WH40K verion of D&D). Burn the heretic!(which we've actually done several times, most of those by accident xD)

Wretched Xenos scum! Cling to your "greater good" while you still can, the hammer of the Imperium has not forgotten you. We will crush you and your insignificant empire as soon as time permits.

You are fortunate that The Imperium has so many other greater enemies to focus upon. But worry not, your time will come.

 

[Kyoufuu]

Tau player here. For the Greater Good! And railguns! And Jump Infantry (jetpack)!

Seriously, JSJ is just awesome. Oh look, my commander is in firing range and in plain view of your guns. Not anymore!
Also markerlights. Oh look, your troops get a 3+ cover save. Not anymore!
And stealth field generators. Oh look, my sniper team is in plain sight of your guns. (You roll night sight dice) Not anymore!

I am a space marine because I started as one and at the time I didn't have the money to switch armies. And after a while I said Fuck It! and make a new codex for my space marine army who have broken away from the Ultra marines and now fly around space messing shit up. And they have some Orc, Tau, Imperial Guard and a whole bunch of mercs who just happened to want to join a crazy rebel army. Really, fuck the space marines and their strict army set-up! If I wanna put 3 lascannons, 2 plasma guns and a squig into a squad and you won't let me, I'll make my own fucking army!

I see...... you must be really fun to play against. No doubt the tournament staff has it's hands full with you, if you go to tournaments that is.

 

[Samwise137]

There's an ENTIRE COMPANY of Space Marines on my desk at the moment. That answer your question?

 

[Dogstile]

Me likes to make tings greena an' more Orky!

Ahh I wondered when you brutes would get here. Say...I know where you can find a good scrap if you're interested...there's this wonderful little planet called T'au where all the best warriors live...they also said that they were better than Orks and that you were all a bunch of pansies.

WAAAAAAAGH, THAT'S IT LADS, GIT IN' DA ROK. WE IZ GONNA STOMP DESE SHOOTY GIT'Z

Lol, if only let would let me. I'll see how smug those Tau are now when a Baneblade uses deep strike because I installed a parachute.

But, moving on, I don't really go to the tournaments so that's not really a problem, but then again I can't play with the special rules a lot. But I was kidding earlier. I have more realistic squads. I made a new kind of warfare my army fights around. E.g. Instead of having everyone trained with heavy weapons and swapping heavy weapon duty through the squads, I have a couple of highly trained Devastator squads that either work as a squad or help other squads. And most squads have special rules or characters. So don't worry, a Squigioth won't Outflank your Hammerhead while it gleefuly snipes the testicals of my captain with a high powered laser!

I used to play Tau and my friends played Eldar and Tyranids. The Eldar I could handle but those bastard tyranids with their carnifex ugraded to 6 wounds and regeneration +2 Armour aswell was a fucking ball ache as I only had 1 hammer head and a few suits with fusion blasters.

 

[DTWolfwood]

I uses to and yes i also played Tau but only started them when they first came out and thought it was completely badass that they had a shoot range of 18" instead of the standard 12" Nothing like being able to take 2 shots at the enemy before they can shoot once.

Prior to switching i played another shooty race. IMPERIAL GUARD! had a 3000 point army that fielded a custom converted Leman Russ Vanquisher. Love that AP shell especially when up against the most bullshit armored vehicle in the game, the Land Raider. 14 armor all around is horse shit! >.<

I think the Orkz had me at green is best and red goes fashtah. Plus when I find out how that ACTUALLY WORKS, I was mind blown.

Still, can someone explain what makes chaos chaotic to me? A friend recently summarised the followers of chaos gods as this:

Khorne - Predictable and almost a huge self parody
Tzeentech - Wizards
Nurgle - HUGGZZZZ (seriously, why are they friendly?)
Slannesh - Don't know about them. But noise marines smite our foes...WITH THE POWER OF ROCK

 

[Lil_Rimmy]

Um, I'd just say replace them with the 4 horseman of the apocalpsy and knock off early.

 

[Lil_Rimmy]

Really, it's kind of the same. Khorne (War or Death) Nurgle (The green one) and I forget the rest but the point is they are ASSHOLES.

 

[rosac]

I ARE TEH SPEHSS MAREEN PLAYA! FOR TEH EMPRUR!

yeah, I play marines. Not those newfangled marines though, like wuffers and blood angels, just the bog standard grey marines, with no special characters. My dad plays dark eldar.

 

[Lil_Rimmy]

Heh, he must hate it when your space marine farts and all of his vehicles (which are held together with whipped cream) fall apart.

GO TEAM RETAR- Er... REBEL SPACE MARINES!

Chaos are chaotic because the gods don't care if there's a civilization. They only want blood and souls. Maybe some worship to go along with that. When your religion is killing things, constant change, disease, or sensory input above all else, and that is the point, how is that not chaotic?

Nurgle cares about his followers because he is the god of new life as well as pestilence.

OT: I just got into tabletop as Tau. After I get a good list, on to Blood Angels, then Krieg.

ps: Who the hell made those captcha's? 90% of them are so hard to read... is that an 'i' or 'l'? Where the F do I get Greek characters from? I've even had to question the difference between 'a' and 'e' because mostly it looks like somebody threw a bucket of black paint over these captcha's...
