[QUOTE=RayvenQ;33669735]Yeah thats a Bullpup Combi-plas.
Still pointless to have it in a bullpup configuration.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I misinterpreted what you said
I thought what you said was that a bullpup bolter would not work
[QUOTE=acds;33669092]Found an old Defiler that is broken (fucking movers :argh:) and missing some parts, and I'm currently going with an Ork army, so... Looted Defiler yes?[/QUOTE]
Yes.
Perhaps you could make it have the rules of a Deff Dread/Killa Kan.
[QUOTE=Konigstiger96;33669963]Oh, I misinterpreted what you said

No, just that there's no real point to having it as a bullpup.
[QUOTE=Hoboharry;33669995]Yes.

Yeah was thinking of either a mech of some sort that then would just be used as a Dread/Kan, or use parts of it with different models, like mixing it together with a Trukk to make something bigger that then can be used as a Battlewagon (or just make a cooler battlewagon).

The bolt spends more time in the barrel, making it more accurate.
[QUOTE=Maximo13;33670139]The bolt spends more time in the barrel, making it more accurate.[/QUOTE]
Bolters don't work like that, as I said, they're unlike normal firearms (which use rifling to be accurate) Initial charge just kicks them clear of the barrel, after which the rocket motor kicks in which is where it gets its speed and accuracy from (an onboard gyrostabiliser makes it spin in flight) It doesn't need a barrel all that much, the other benefit of bullpuping is to make the weapon shorter, which, to be honest, its small relative to the size of the marine wielding it.
Although, bolter sniper rifles do benefit froma longer barrel, thats because the bolt rounds used are greatly different than regular bolt rounds.

If you play armageddon you can easily make a looted defiler, otherwise cannibalize it to make a sweet battle wagon. I mean you want a gripper-claw anyways (since grabbing vehicles then having a nob punch it with a power fist feels good) and the cannon should be useful. Just make it right orky.

Though I can't imagine a way to have a Plasma weapon on a bolter without moving the clip back, considering they're huge things.

Me too, the bullpup just feels better, like you have a more balanced gun, the standard combi is all front heavy, would be a bitch to carry, aim, shoot, brace for recoil..
Finished my Ciaphas Cain books (finally) and I can't help but wondering what kind of pornography Jurgen has on that dataslate of his.

Most of them probably involve naked women posing with flamethrowers. Maybe even burning heretics.

Good thing that a Marines plate enhances their strength meaning they don't give a rats ass.

yes, that claw is in fact crushing a lesser titan like toy.
I hear great reviews of the living space on the titan.

Oh the good ol' starcraft vs 40k war.
Guys i've always wanted to know
what's the emperor's real name?
or was he given the name "Emperor" at birth?
If so that's pretty awesome :v:

I don't think he was ever given a name seeing as the shamans who brought him into the world had to sacrifice themselves to do so.

God Emperor. Like how Allah is the title and name

Standard Combi Bolter is not really all that front heavy. Plus, bitch to carry, aim, shoot and brace for recoil? We're talking about fucking Space Marines here, none of those would be a problem (plus a Bolter has a relatively low recoil as it is)
[img]http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1240850_99060101324_DAAzraelmain_873x627.jpg[/img]
however looks VERY front heavy, due to the extra plasma parts on it.

I'd imagine he doesn't have one because that allowed him to slip into his roles easier. Though you can call him Jesus or Ghandi if you want, but then he might decapitate you for ruining his [B]GRIMDARK GOD[/B] image.

Nobody knows, anyoen who did know has been dead for around 44K years, he never told anyone, possibly because he simply doesn't have an actual name, just guises, in Fulgrim it was hinted at that Eldrad [I]possibly[/I] knew it, but never said anything more.

Theres a ton of influencial historical earth people that he could have been, its not beyond possibility that the emperor was jesus, hitler, caesar, alexander, stalin, pretty much anyone who had any major impact (and not neccesarily military roles either, could have been einstein or newton or anyone infact)

I like to think of him as an FPS player character, which is why he had an instant proficiency with everything and was totally nameless beyond a basic, descriptive title.

He's either an Old One in disguise (only theory), or, if the old fluff (and Jaq Draco) is considered as currently true, He's the embodiment and reincarnation of thousands if not more earth shamans (who could wield the warp) into one single body/being.
Also, speaking again about that emperesque fanfic, i though the name was a reference to strongbad's dangeresque
imagine my surprise when i found out what was going on.

SC marines look like W40k marines except they have the effectiveness of the IG.
