Ok, so this thread owes its existence to the Star Wars lines that could be improved by replacing a word with "pants": http://www.keepersoflists.org/index.php?lid=1906 and a thread in the old D&D forums.

The Idea is to take phrases, rules, or abilities out of Warhammer rulebooks, codexes, and army books, and make them funnier bay adding or substituting the word pants. In the case of abilities or weapons, an explanation is suggested.

I'll start:

1. Macharian Pants: an award presented to officers in recognition of innovative and successful implementation of pants.

2. Melta Pants: for those who wish to destroy a tank and care not for their reproductive capabilities

This should be in the chain fiction forum if you ask me.

I could think of some good ones, given time. I don't have any of the books with me, but I got some names...

Pantshunters: Orks that have the questionable battlefield ritual of removing their enemies pants and exchanging their own.

Flash Pantz: nuff said

Mad Pants Grotsnik: Normally well adjusted (for an ork), he has gone insane due to his very itchy pants

I will never live this down.

Now for some key building strategems:

13. Command Pants strategem: This might be a pair of pants attached to the upper stories of the building to aid the control of nearby forces.

14. Pants Facility: this building contains medical pants, aoutomed pants, pants dispensers, healing pants, or other stores useful for keeping an army full clothed.

Terminator Pants: Confer a 2+ armor save and a 5+ invulnerpants save to it's wearer.

Pants march: Allows units in reserve to come in from your opponent's pants.

I'll give the names, you guys do the descriptions.

18. Pants Kantor: Leader of the Crimson Pants (don't ask)
19. Pantsguard Veterans: Drop out of the sky to destroy would be pants thieves.

22. Artificer Pants: "Just paint them more 'ornate' looking"

24. Carapace Pants: There's not such thing as too much groin protection.
25. Power Pants: To go with your power tie.
26. 'Eavy Pants: Very well painted pants.
27. Leman Pants: You can't tell, but all the imperial tank commanders are wearing them.
28. Banepants: These pants can fire at multiple targets.
29. Swooping Pants: come with fins for easy gliding.
30. Howling Pants: "It feels like someone with a fever is yelling in my pants"

Time for some modified quotes:

"One way or another, child, Chaos will open up your pants. That I promise you." - Warriors of Chaos army book

"Fear me, mortals, for I am the Anointed, the favoured Son of Chaos, the scourge of the world. The pants of the Gods rally behind me, and it is by my will and my sword that your weakling pants shall fall." - Archaon the Everchosen

XV88 Crisis Battlepants.

Pants Shock: During ones moving phase, any model wearing pants may declare "PANTS SHOCK". Upon doing so, the player rolls 2 D6 towards selected target. If the target is within range, the model removes his/her pants and charges the enemy with the pants around his/her ankles. Roll for dangerous terrain. If it passes, the pants shock carries out as normal, if it fails, the model trips over his/her pants and must take an armor save. A model being pants shocked will roll for morale. Failing will cause the model to flee D6 in the direction of a scatter dice. If the scatter dice rolls a direct hit, the models being pants shocked are removed from play. If the scatter moves the unit towards the pants shocker, the unit is removed from play along with the pants shocker. If the unit being pants shocked passes morale, they laugh at the pants shocker and the pants shocker must take a morale test. If the pants shocker passes morale he/she goes into a blind rage and kills the pants shocked unit(remove them from play), if the pants shocker fails this morale test he/she gets his/her feelings hurt. The armor save is -1 of the original armor seeing as though they have pulled down a part of their armor revealing a weakspot. An armor save of 6+ is always allowed as long as the model had an armor save of 5+ or 6+ before the -1 takes effect.

I was waiting for someone to mention the tau and their battlepants. My favorite are the stealth pants, no one can tell you're wearing them.



"You must face the pants squarely and without flinching from duty. Our enemies are pants no longer. Mercy for such as they is a chimera, pants-deception is its only ally. Dedicate these pants given unto your hand at the behest of the Pantsperor, to their destruction. Regard its function as your only duty; you live only to bring pants. Take up your cargos and corduroys, your khakis and pinstripes, and go forth"

-Galbus Heer-Lecutres to the Ordo Pantsus

Fixed.

For the Greater Pants!

I got some from the Dark Heresy critical hit charts...

With a mighty chop, the pants come away at the hip. The target pitches to the ground howling in agony, before dying a moment later.

With a sound not unlike a wet sponge being torn in half, the target's pants fly free of their body and sails through the air, landing harmlessly 2d10 metres away with a soggy thud. The target is instantly slain.
