What's Your Army?

[kluthe]

hey, it worked for me

 

[Stormrage]

To quote from the TV Tropes wiki, "Warhammer 40000 is a setting where power-armored Super Soldiers with rocket-propelled grenade launcher assault rifles and chainsaw swords work alongside space nuns with flamethrowers and the Red Army IN SPACE with lasers and house-sized death tanks (or alternately, the Scottish ninja assassin bagpipe troopers) to battle flaming head sex demons riding hell motorcycles amidst the earth-shattering stomping of three hundred meter tall walking battle cathedrals while psychic space elf Pirates with guns that shoot Ninja stars flit about on hover bikes while surrounded on all sides by green-skinned fungi-warriors whose vehicles literally move faster because they are painted red while being eaten by all-consuming psychic bug-eyed-monsters from hell or flayed into their constituent atoms by undead robots armed with lightning guns and dressed in the skins of their enemies who are in turn getting sniped by alien element-themed Well Intentioned Extremist communists/utilitarians in bunny-eared battlesuits."

hey, what are the Tau, chop liver?!

hey, what arethe Tau, chop liver?!

Depends... if my marine is carrying a power fist or chainsword...

 

[Stormrage]

Perhaps that quote originates from the time Tau weren`t in 40k..

OMG!!! Alien scum AND commies?!?! Kill!!!

 

[Stormrage]

I thought bunny ears were Khorne Berzerkers, I haven`t payed attention to the rest.

 

[Quinzy]

Look at their bunny ears!

 

[DragonBird]

Now I see them. Its sooooo cuuuuute! And right when you say that - cute little bunny red dots are all over you. And you see cute little bunnie eared missles looking at you.
What are the "flaming head sex deamons"? Demonnettes of Slannesh? What about the "scottish ninja assassin bagpipe troopers"? Maybe Stormtroopers? but where are the bagpipes?

 

[Quinzy]

The Tanith are the scots, I think

 

[Stormrage]

Mkoll, Mkvenner... Yeah, could be scottish

 

[DragonBird]

They should have MacGregor from the CoD games.

 

[Stormrage]

Watch to the end

Goblin magic miscast?!

 

[Stormrage]

No. Its cooler than that..

In Warhammer Online, if say a level 30 player goes down the tier and tries to attack some newbies, he gets turned into a chicken

I just applied for Beta. Fingers crossed!

 

[DragonBird]

Hmm... I thought it was wierd with the High Elf tower behind him.

I thought only Drawfs and Greenskins fought. And darkies and high elves fought? Along with Chaos and The Empire fighting eachother.

2 Sides. 3 Battlefronts. 6 Races. 4 Classes per Race.

DE, Orcs and Chaos vs the Lord of the Rings Alliance

Stormy- in response to my saying that the new codices are ruining the races:

I mean that they new rules are destroying or rendering useless some fluff, and making certain races unplayable. Nids are gone to the dogs, and splitting Chaos isn't something I like either... Only one type of great demon, randomising Possessed, it all adds up to a flavourless and so-random-it's-unplayable force.

Going back to the Nids, they've been rendered ineffective in so many areas that they're just fodder now. They're the wrong type of Horde army. They were still meant to have strength in individuals but now almost everything has been turned into a one-hit-kill trooper. It's... unfortunate. No, it's daft, that's what it is. Tyranids have lost their formidableness as the threatening alien race invading the galaxy. Now they're just... weak and squishy.
