Could someone explain this joke to me?
I know that some humans fight for the Tau (called Gue'vesa or something)
[QUOTE=Hoboharry;31941194][url=http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Malal]Malal[/url] is a renegade Chaos god which is also known as Malice.
You really haven't heard of him?[/QUOTE]
Never have. Couldn't find it on Lexicanum either.

It's a run in to the trope that asian women prefer white men.
And Malal is the primordial god of chaos. Chaos that is chaotic upon itself and which was pushed a bit into the background by the birth of Slaneesh.
Though is merely a minor god these days - typical aspect of him is hate.
Has a temple somewhere were various greater deamons of chaos are bound in ways that make them inmeasurably suffer. Like a keeper of secrets in a way that negates all sensory input and stuff like that.
Tends to have lone agents as opposed actual armies.
Also once more tends to oppose organised groups by principle. But due to having a particular hate for the other four gods of chaos, actually has agents help and tip off the imperium often enough. It's rumoured that some Imperial inquisitors might be Malalites as well. And the sons of malice spacemarine chapter is possibly worshipping him too.

Considering now he technically doesn't exist, due to copyright issues etc etc
The one true weakness of the chaos gods.
Copyright infringment.

Copyright issues because of what?
[QUOTE=nightlord;31941922]Copyright issues because of what?[/QUOTE]
The creator left the company and he held the copyright.
Because of who exactly owns the Copyright on Malal, the comic makers etc etc or GW, so GW just dropped it.

Now that we have exposed this weakness, we shall put a copyright on every planet in the universe to cruch the wretched daemons
The concept of Malal seems pretty bad ass. If I ever have a Chaos army I'm ganna paint them black and white.
Guys, i can't seem to find another shoulder plate to put on my fourth chaos terminator, however, i have an Obliterator shoulder plate, it's a bit big, but i think i'll be able to fit it on his shoulder.
Should i do it?
Or will the Chaos Terminator count as a custom model if i put the Obliterator shoulder plate on his shoulder?

Malice is best god. Wouldn't he be the most powerful god as everything distruction wise add to his power? If so its no fucking reason the other gods fear him.
Also didnt they change malal to Malice to avoid copyright issues?
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;31935795]Thats the first time I've heard that...[/QUOTE]
It's mentioned in a short story from "Let the Galaxy Burn" called "Know Thine Enemy".
So I tried to see what a space marine's helmet will look like if it was inverted (happy instead of angry)
Suddenly:

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;31941731]Considering now he technically doesn't exist, due to copyright issues etc etc[/QUOTE]
I am pretty sure he exists as "Malice" now, and the Sons of Malice worship him. I read that they scrapped the name and a lot of details but Malal is still in the fluff in some way.
Malal is the only true chaos god.
We should murder the guy who's holding it so GW can get it back.
Bring Madboyz and Squats back, GW, and it'll happen.

I would be scared if a Space marine mocked me with that helmet while riding on a unicycle. It's the ultimate taunt.

Is anyone else having problems with space marine and a ATI graphics card?

According to the article, Malal's power grows when the other Ruinous Powers' grow more powerful. So I guess its the babysitter of the Chaos Gods. No matter how strong they get, Malal will be stronger.
[QUOTE=GetBent;31934494]It needs to be larger so I can read that small print easier.
Also, I hate the chapters with the 50/50 paint job. Looks bad in my opinion.[/QUOTE]

Nice find.
Also, what do the arrows mean on some of the spaulders? Like the ones pointing up and the others pointing off towards the side.

Not here, 2600 XT HD

According to the wikis:
[quote][B]The right pad shows the squad badge, this shows the type of squad the marine belongs to and the number of his squad.[/B] Veteran Squads use a stylised version of the Crux Terminatus similar to a Cross Pattée, [B]Tactical Squads use an arrow, Assault Squads use four perpendicular arrows pointing outwards and Devastator Squads use an inverted V.[/B] Space Marines in Terminator Armour wear the Crux Terminatus on their left pad, and their Chapter Badge on their right pad.

Fucking Tau, man. I'm trying to assemble a squad of Fire Warriors but not one thing is going right.

So I wasn't the only one who got the idea.
Apparently my HD 5470 Radeon Mobility with 1 GB is below minimum requirements for SM, even though game runs perfectly fine (aside from SOUND stuttering). Really?
EDIT: I still don't get it - how can SOUND issue be tied to the GRAPHIC CARD, somebody explain? D:
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;31935977]I can't remember the specifics, or rather, my mind chooses not to, but it was terribad.
How about a lone fire warrior taking onMarines, Commissars, Dreds and other stuff and coming out alive[/QUOTE]
You would rather have a game where you kill 5 guardsmen, then die?
They didn't "rape the fluff" they made a game that introduces you to a lot of fluff, and allows you to see a lot in relative small size of the game.
[QUOTE=Eonart;31950117]im p sure 1 tau fire warrior taking down guard regiments, space marine companies and chaos legions is fluff breaking[/QUOTE]
Khorne demon possession, I say!
I mean, that is the only way to explain it. Yes, Tau aren't that much of a psyker race, but they aren't blanks - so they still can be possessed.
