Warhammer 40K Megathread V2: Matt Ward for Spiritual Liege 2012 - Games

[QUOTE=Scar;34478454]Dunno, but I prefare to know what happened, and how, instead of just "Horus rebelled because Chaos->Imperium wins, Emprah mortally wounded"[/QUOTE] All the theories about events are now ruined. Such as the one about the Alpha Legion still being loyal (Atleast i think that's been ruined)

The Alpha Legion theory hasn't been ruined.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;34479059]The Alpha Legion theory hasn't been ruined.[/QUOTE] Ok then, i got that wrong. But there's other stuff i read -such Magnus's warning was changed, so when he gave it everyone already knew and it was pointless, and the Wolves going after them even knowing they were told to by a traitor.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;34479059]The Alpha Legion theory hasn't been ruined.[/QUOTE] ALPHA LEGION? HOW DARE YOU SPREAD SUCH HER-I mean, yes, there is no such thing as Alpha Legion, come honored battle brother, to the inciner-I mean, you should retire to your quarters, here, enjoy this fresh clean quarters, go on.

[QUOTE=nightlord;34474963]Are the current staff completely different from the ones when i started then? I don't remember Matt Ward but i don't know about anyone else.[/QUOTE] There's a mix of old and new, but most of the old story guys (chambers, priestly, thorpe) are now execs, which, as we see, is not necessarily a good thing.

[QUOTE=3v3ryb0dy;34442776]amx40 I like more each day. Even in tier 7 matches it can serve as an impressive distraction wedging itself into enemy tanks while everyone fires on you so your team can fire on them[/QUOTE] The AMX40 can't even bounce a bolter shell, i know the pain since i have it in WoT. Wish there was a DoW mod/ conversion for WoT. Crushing other tanks with a baneblade would be awesome.

Also $40 for a statue, most players will not want that, sure neckbeards will but come on, you could release finecast turd and neckbeards would want it if you said it was a collector's item. Seriously though, if they released beaky marine troop choices in normal plastic I'd buy a space marine army.

once I get my first beakie I'm going to modify him to drink pepsi

[QUOTE=Gubbinz96;34476654][sp]Generally whichever character becomes the most corrupt becomes the traitor. Jonas makes the best traitor. I mean seriously, THAT VOICE.[/sp][/QUOTE] Oh okay, I kinda expected that but I wasn't sure. [sp]Cyrus, Jonah, and the Commander were the only ones fully corrupt. Since both Cyrus and Commander seem to be the least likely to be traitors, it was Jonah by default. So Avitus being the traitor is the canon ending for it, though? I'm still very confused.[/sp]

Thank you for confirming that to me!

So I'm trying to get into 40k comics. I'm already looking at picking up Damnation Crusade. Any other recommendations? I'd love something involving the 'guard but as long as it's good I don't really mind.

Just beat Anvil of Khorne and Bloody with Pubbers, nobody ever went down in Bloody, the Hive Tyrant went down once on Wave 19 of Khorne.

It was a veteran sergeant, which leaves Avitus as the ONLY one left. Also listen to the Avitus speech after Thaddeus chews him out for abandoning the spire. That's about as Khornate as you can get.[/sp]

Well, Farseer really is Frail if you're going with a support-build. I died to 2 Hormagaunts :crying:

[QUOTE=Gubbinz96;34476654] I would also like to add in Orks for that one.[/QUOTE] I wish the best of luck to who-ever thinks they can best Da Gray Tide.

Seems THQ is in alot of trouble. I doubt we will be getting DMO, DoW3 or CoH2 now.

Either it's some bioluminescent shit from a feral world (which would probably result in her getting a fatal dose of FUCKING XENO DOOMPLANT), or it's tainted by Slaanesh, which would open up a whole new can of worms.

Sacred stuff clearly glows, how else would you know it's holy? Blind faith? I don't think so. [QUOTE=Mastahamma;34492934]isn't everyone with power armour pretty much genetically modified to a level that they consume poisonous stuff and actually benefit from it[/QUOTE] I now have an image in my head of a space marine eating roses. thorns and all. But no, Sisters aren't modified.
