Just watched a video in Earth and Space about stars. Said that all heavier elements are a result of stars imploding then exploding, and then it straight up said that we are star children. Suck it, Emperor.

No, I was just commenting on the base scientific principle... I like that fact :/

Well, I haven't played fantasy since 7th, but I always preferred Black Guard too executioners. If you can find them I would look into buying the old metal black guard or executioners, or both, over the new plastic kit. They old metal models are much better.

I've got the new plastic kit - hence I asked. Though it seems that, with the new army book, Black Guard don't really do something other units can't. I think I'm going for Executioners - besides ace models, high initiative S6 attacks are awesome.

Welp...

Just found this, so hi.

I'm into 40k.

I dabbled in the game until I bought a Nightbringer (4th ed) and found the model to be totally underwhelming. I'm done with the actual game. After that buy, I rage-quitted. Now I'm just a Master of Obscure Lore and read Dan Abnett.

How's the heresy coming?
