Warhammer 40,000~Blaze Of Purity (OOC/Signups)

[Daemon Prince Sagerie]

Yes, yes I do. And the Emperor was basically at a nightclub all the time with the Chaos gods?

Exactly, what was the name of that one.

Heretical love if I remember correctly

[Spindle]

Join the club. I've never even played the game. Just got into the lore a couple months ago.

Video games are good, table top is fun but slow for my taste. Lore is amazing and infuriating all at the same time. #DeathkorpsofKrieg, #Vraks.

Lore is awesome, video games are a mixed bag (SPEHSS MUHRINES! TODAH WE DIE IN GLORAH!), the game is broken as fuck and the memes are top-quality.

And, since Bard hasn't been on for a few days now, I'm going to assume temporary co-OPness and say that Felicia, Volun and Lucyan are accepted, so you three can get on with everything.

Yes, but who wants to play the game itself anymore? You pay waaay too much for waaay too little and then end up facing Taudar and having your force wiped off the board in two turns. The only way I've managed to get an enjoyable game is by straight-up banning 7th ed.

It is ok, it is an entrance point for those who have strayed from the emperors light and must once again be brought back into the Imperial fold. Besides, most people can afford to play the video games because GW makes anything cost the souls of a dozen psykers and for very fluffy models like the Death Korps you must give your first born Primarch to them. Then again there is something nice about having 80 heavy weapons teams.

Unless you're playing Chaos Space Marines Orks, Taudar shouldn't be much of a problem considering the list will likely be unbound. Meanwhile a Space Marine army using their decurion Formations will seize all the objectives, which is what actually matters. Or you can simply play 1,000pt games or lower, such as Kill-Team which is dirt cheap to get into. 40k is only terribly expensive because people have this stupid obsession with playing Epic-Scale games with a Skirmish system.

Then don't buy a 2,000 or 3,000 point army.

[Ameriganastan]

Was never an RTS guy, so Dawn Of War holds no appeal to me.

But I do play CSM...they're one of the fluffiest armies around and your guys can turn into a Spawn. Which is hilarious.

[Bhikkustan]

Can I do an imperial knight or a Titan? I wanna make it go boom!

[Ameriganastan]

I like this little dynamic Furinax and Rhynacus have. An insulting hedonist who never stops talking, and the impatient war machine who wants to rip his throat out. Fun.

Can I do an imperial knight or a Titan? I wanna make it go boom!

Ooh, Titan. Fun.

[Parcia]

Thus, Lucyan the Blood hound enters the stage.

[Parcia]

And while i do own dawn of war and winter assault, my knowledge of the Fluff comes from Arch Warhammer vids and doing my own research.

[Spindle]

Can I do an imperial knight or a Titan? I wanna make it go boom!

Not yet: I doubt there's been time for anything of that size to reach Hylose. Plus the largest we've got a present is a Predator.

And I specifically avoiding mounting a twin linked lascannon or plasma cannon on the predator to avoid being OP, a Knight is a completely OOC threat that requires shit like multiple squads with grav cannons or Leman Russ Vanquishers to drop at minimum.

Although my app isn't approved yet either.

[-The Imperium of Man-]

Would there be room for a person or two from the Officio Assassinorum? I have come up with a reason why they would be on Hylose (I'm assuming that the Chaos Space Marines showed up on Hylose in part via some Warp-related wankery, as they often do, so the idea was that my characters were headed somewhere else via warp travel, something something warp interference, crash-landing...you get the idea.)

Alternatively, I might also bring in an Imperial Guard Ogryn or something, primarily for the lulz.

[Parcia]

Ahh, Ogryns. A giant wielding a nigh indestructible result of a MK-40 and a AA-12.

Just go ahead and post anyway. The app's not broken (well, other than being a Space Marine) and Bard hasn't been on for a few days.

If you could justify the Assassin, fine. If not, an Ogryn would be fine as well.

Don't forget a large knife as well.

I thought they just used their gun as a club? After all, could an Ogryn actually hold a knife the right way around?

It is more of a bayonet on the front of the gun. I think Fallout 4 ripped off the idea from them with the minigun with shredder upgrade.

Ogryns get bayonets?

Actually, that does kinda make sense...there are times when you need to bayonet 'Nids...

[Parcia]

Bayoneting Tyinids? i bet your the type of person who tries to fist fight Orks.

[Neadar]

Oh umm, fist fight Orks... I was doing something else to Orks with my fist but it was not fighting. *Walks away slowly*

Oh I see how it is, when I do it, it is heresy but when the Emperors busy banging the Tzeentch chick at the club it is cool. #doublestandards
