[QUOTE=RayvenQ;32251208]Ravenor series, as well as Eisenhorn, but yeah, a lot of the smeall around jurgen and people not liking him/finding him weird is probably down to his blankness, also, Frauka is a bit of an exception, as he was deblanked by Zael reflecting the psychic energies of the Daemon Slyte, which would be why Frauka is still alive rather than just plain dead. [editline]12th September 2011[/editline] Gaunts Ghosts, in the style of Band of Brothers, would be fucking amazing. [/QUOTE] I think if they made a BoB style Gaunt's Ghosts series it would have to be a lot longer of a show than BoB was. There is just too much. But it would never happen anyway. :(
Yeah at least a 20+ episode series per trilogy.
Sorry to be asking about books again, guys, but i'd really like to read a few 40k books, but i don't know any book store here that sells them. Will i have to order them online or do any of you know a book store that has a section of 40k books?

amazon is quite good for books i'm not sure if you can get them to deliver to you in iceland books into movies wise, GG into a BoB series would kick ass, i wish there was more of a fan base as there really is some exelent story in 40k, especially by abnett and aaron bowden as people keep mentioning their books a lot in this thread alone.
Waterstones usually have a few books I don't know if they're in Iceland.
Thanks, all three of you. It's just that i didn't see any books in the store apart from codexes or something, i'll ask an employee there if there are any when i go there again.
Retributions netcode is a fucking joke, out of the 4 games I played I was kicked out of 3 for no damn reason. I hope whoever does it is shot for DoW3 and a competent team is hired, or THQ should just hire Blizzard to do it in some extreme irony.

Whenever I go in Barnes & Nobles in the States there are usually two whole wall shelf sections dedicated to Warhammer and 40k.

I think later on this year I'm going to start a new army. Already have two small armys from the Assault on Black Reach, but I think I'm going to start a new one.
I think even a slowpoke would know of something that happened 18,000 years ago.

HEY GUYS GUYS GUYS. THE NECRONTYR SOLD THEIR SOULS TO THE C'TAN! Alternatively: GUYS OH MY GOD GUYS LOOK. DID YOU JUST CATCH THAT MASSIVE FLASH OF LIGHT? FOLLOWED BY A MASSIVE EXPANSION OF NOTHINGNESS?
Played some Space Marine multiplayer for the first time in a couple days, balance is starting to get pretty bad. Everyone is picking up on the fact that Devs are the best overall class and abusing the shit out of them. Played some Assault, got bored of killing people with my bolt weapons instead of going into melee (don't use Thunderhammer) and switched to Dev, queue 4 games in a row of ridiculous KDR's using every weapon. Highlight was the lascannon game on that Bridge map where I went 23-1 and about 5 of those were melee kills against Assaults stupid enough to try and melee an iron halo Dev. Switched to Tactical because I didn't want to kill another lobby, get mowed down by HB Devs everywhere I go, quit game depressed because I have to play Dev to kill Devs.

I'll go to the store some time soon and hope they have any in stock. Based on the recommendations in this thread, i'll be getting Lord of the Night, Throne of Lies, Gaunts Ghosts (maybe the whole series including the omnibus, not sure), and the Ciaphas Cain books.

One hit kill and I cant see where they are coming from. Really gay.

KB + SZ pretty muhc negate the extra hit you'd get out of IH + FNP. KB + SB mows right through Devs even with HBE.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32250009]I wonder if GW will canonize Titus[/QUOTE] I don't see why they would do that. Unless they would make a continuation of Space Marine or something, Titus wouldn't really fit in canon.
Anyone find it sad that if Titus [sp]likely does survive the Inquisition[/sp] that the Ultramarines will likely send him into the eye of terror for not following the Codex Astartes?
Is Soulstorm worth getting? I have Dawn of War, Winter assault and Dark Crusade, (None of the DoW2 series yet), and I don't know which order to do them in. Dawn of War is first obviously, but after that? As far as I know, Dark Crusade is non-canon mostly, but what about Winter Assault?
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;32255332]Anyone find it sad that if Titus [sp]likely does survive the Inquisition[/sp] that the Ultramarines will likely send him into the eye of terror for not following the Codex Astartes?[/QUOTE] I dunno, if it's anything like Dead Sky, Black Sun it'll be pretty awesome.
[QUOTE=Hoboharry;32249496]What do you mean terrible team?[/QUOTE] Not terrible team as in traditional sense, but more about the fact that we pretty much burn down the story that Cyclosius is trying to tell, e.g. "What do you mean we weren't supposed to kill him?"

Anyway, in my opinion, you should skip Soulstorm and go for DoW2.
