Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

I have a furioso librarian named Bob, he actually does quite well along side his battle brothers Larry, Curly and Moe.

My vote? clearly he should be named CRASSUS after the CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT TRANSPORT, because this thing is friggen awesome.

I didn't say it was. It was not a comment on its ability. Having fought them before and had little trouble I would not call it cheese. That does not mean that that model didn't tell me its name is Mayor McCheese. It clearly did.

The contraption on the top is called an orerry. 'The Orerry' is not an especially good name though. It would be nice to have a name that was in some way connected to that though. Something to do with planetary alignments, conjunctions, or divination. I think divination has a lot of coolest words. Unfortunately 'harbinger' is a bit overused in 40k.

Of what is left, I think the best I've got is: The Omen.
2nd favorite would be: The Prophecy / Prophet.

And a silly one for good measure: The Horrorscope!!
