what do YOU think is more powerful than a ig lasgun? i know what im voting.

i chose sneezing, simply cause once i sneezed during a game and literally blew away my devastators squad.

I chose burnt toast, because I absolutely hate burnt toast. I'd rather have a laser pointer on my face then to have to eat burnt toast.

My cat

Bolters, shuriken weaponry, and pulse rifles would all be valid answers here, but you seem to have forgotten to include them in this poll.
Lasguns are described as being at least as powerful as machine guns.

None of the things listed on your poll are even considered to be weapons, much less weapons that would be more dangerous than a machine gun.

I don't think you put very much thought into this poll at all, and frankly I think that "the ability to read" must be too strong for you to grasp, seeing as how you are apparently unable to do a little research on the power of a lasgun before setting up this poll.

How bout Microsoft's 360 Red ring of death

The Will of the Emperor or the Opponent's Girlfriend.

id rather have a laser gun pointed at my head then a kick in the balls.

I say dog farts. Even the smallest dog can clear a room, like a Tyranid Toxin Spore Mine.

i chose even more burnt toast because you can only have so much toast before you choke,but a lasgun can hardly melt butter

Blue Screen of Death.

Lets face it guys, we have all been there.....

Except for us mac users!

Buy a mac!

No thanks.

calm down, it was just a friendly poll and frankly, although i play ig, im some what bashing lasguns.

i should have posted more answers, just pick one up there then tell your wanted answer in a comment.

LordBoJangles wrote:calm down, it was just a poll and frankly, although i play ig, im some what bashing lasguns.

I was just joking around. That was the reason for the winking ork.

Seriously, though the ability to read is more powerful than any laser gun!
Because it fires lasers made out of your imagination.


(Also, MAX R THE SUxx0RS!)

I'm going with clapping. Simply because the idea of a massed applause assault leaves me feeling warm inside.

a whole legion of sm's clapping thats synchronized can be powerful.

When Marneus Calgar claps with his giant hands, it instantly destroys several hundred Nightlords.

i started thinking, what would happen if marined with power fists high fived eachother....this is what i came up with...

"incoming genestealer at 3-o'clock"
with a swing of his crackling powerfist, Emaur obliterates the xenos with one swoop"
"Didn't see that one, thanks Malar!"
"High five....what dont leave me hanging"
(malar comes runnig up) "Whoo!"
The two powerfists swing at eachother for a high-five, just as the 2 realized what they had done it was too late.
The two crackling power fists collided, thats caused a dark shockwave out in a 50 yard radius,the fists still in the air smoking, they began to shake.
"WHAT IS THIS!? I CAN'T MOVE MY HAND!"
"ME EITHER... EMPEROR HELP US!"
Due to the immense negative energies from the powerfists and the supercharged cells, a hole begins to envelop round their fists
"WHAT IS THIS MALAR!?"
"I DONT KNOW BUT AH.AH...AHHHHHHHHH!"
Both marines get focibly sucked into the negative hole, as it gets bigger and bigger pulling everything around it inside, treed debris, bodies etc get sucked in as the hole gets larger and larger.
The rest of the marines and tyranids see this but it is too late, try as they may to flee but the void is inescapeable.
As the tear in to reality itself gets larger more gets swalloewed whole, from a rhino to a carnifex, to a land raider and a trigon, none can escape. 0 700 hours, 15 minutes after ine initial high five, half the planet is encased in a purple void, 5 minutes later the whole planet dissappears. All orbiting ships try to escape but its too late.
As the void reaches critical mass, it explodes into itself sending out a shockwave heard all over the universe. IT is now called the eye of terror.

My dog is more dangerous than a lasgun, or anything in 40k. What can a pile of plastic and metal do when a dog eats it?

I chose pillow to the face...gave me a nose bleed once. That was one bad-ass pillow

He may need a hefty stool softener if he ate a lot of metal bits.....

I choose option 15: All of the above.

Yeah lasguns REALLY suck!

Lasguns are cool. They're for the real men who don't use just one bullet to immolate another human -- like S/M gene-freaks.

They use... about 7 Clips (Right word?) to raise a bruise.

Brutal.

She doesn't so much eat them as chew them thouroughly. Fear the power of my whippet.

i know i should have had more answers/options but with too many options, there would have been a wider range of answers, but i forgot to put in a 15th answer oops.

Sneezes, definitely, especially ORK sneezes, from warbosses, on warbikes, with uh... warchoppas.

Yea.

And also zipnapalms Cat, that too!

imagine if a space marine sneezed without taking his helmet off. mid fire "i got the target in my si..ah...ahhh AHH. choo....Target gone?....eeew theres snot on my visor."

i want to try to get to 100 votes

can we add a rubberband shooter to this list?

how about a jammed staple gun?

quit voting i like lasguns people

i think a pillow to the face, because if ya put something in it......... and also if ya read my signature,you will see why.

You forgot something far more powerful than a mere lasgun: SPAM (the meat product, not the email version)!!!

i would say that a stuffed olive is more powerful, it could choke someone to death

You've obviously never been around a dog with gas. The horror that inflicts is more than mortal man can endure...

So I'll go with burnt toast. Or a small fluffy bunny.

definately dog farts....they're leathal.
dog farts
range - template
strength - X
ap - 1 (they can eat through armour)

What about all of the Above, +bunny rabits?

Not only lethal, but banned by the Geneva Convention. Think of the children!

all true

we need more voters

lasgun are great for their way to reload.
Out of ammo? Throw the cartridge in a fire! (it's true, it's in the codex)

just great!
...And dumb
...and great some more

come on people vote more

The ability to read, as then you can read the label on the crate next to the open one full of lasguns, the sticker says "BOLTERS" so you pick up one of those instead

Im an IG collector i like Lasguns although dog farts would be pretty effective. Get some big dogs and shove them on some stands and you would have a new heavy weapon!

Well, I think lasguns deserve more credit.

they are not the weakest 40k weapon out there.

and even if they were, they're what, 1S and 1Ap worse than a fortith millenium version of the M2 .50 caliber heavy machine gun (heavy stubber)?

So they are what, a FN SCAR-H 7.62mm battle rifle with infinite ammo and never jams?

and who cares even if they were the weakest, even Termies fail saves, and Termies are outnumbered 7 to 1 point for point.

YES 100 Votes!

Lasguns - more powerful then a Carnot engine

you for got flash light

sorry computer problems

I would hurt more getting hit by a Grot Blasta then a Lasgun. Why? It's solid shot.

Once I got punched in the throat. I think that throat punch was more powerful than a lasgun.

But throat punch wasn't on your list. So I couldn't vote.

Edit: My 777th post was about throat punching. I should remember this.

Babies forcibly hurled out of a cannon... definitely more powerful than a lasgun.

I'm not sure where that came from... but it probably has something to do with my avatar

You left the one out that I want for the Christmas season. A Genuine RED RYDER 200-shot Carbine Action Air Rifle. Just be careful 'cause, you'll shoot your eye out, kid(Gets Hot?).
I "Triple Dog Dare You" to prove otherwise.

Barring that I choose "Hey, I like Lasguns" I'm not an IG player so better for me.

LordBoJangles wrote:quit voting i like lasguns people

That's not how voting works, mate.

I still have a scar on my knee from being shot with an air rifle when I was six... or seven. Can't remember.

'All of the above' is my answer, obviously because all of them together are better than any of them individually.

AAA batteries POWER lasguns, so they can't be better than them. Do you get white stuff on the sides on your mouth when you're thirsty? This idea upsets me.

Surely the omnissiah would not see fit to equip our legions with the lasgun if it were not a mighty weapon indeed?

It should be very powerful if shot en masse.

Hey, I like Lasguns - the 41st Millenuim scratch cards

I chose dog farts because... well... because dog farts will actually clear a room because they're so horrid.

A lasgun in a room... well.. someone would use it to light a cigarette - until someone handed them a zippo.
So...after that, theyll just use it as a paperweight.

honestly tho - I've always wanted to play IG... they look like so much fun... who needs power armor and bolters when you have flak armor and a commisar behind you?
Gotta give em a try.

British shooting instructors have a saying. "If you can't do it in one shot, don't do it at all." How do you like them apples?

If at first you don't succeed... try until the bad guys get really close to you.

Then throw your weapon at them and run like hell.

hopefully, the enemy will be so confused as to why the enemy is using such a pansy @$$ gun that their heads will explode.

I voted for the lasgun =P

An Iraqi journalist's footwear, hurled with moderate force.

umm, a well thrown rock?

Voted for lasguns, gotta love the guard.

10 guardsmen firing lasguns on auto kill 2 space marines. I can't say the same for 10 dogs farting.

dog farts my dog could clear my house from outside

Let me just say this... Ph3er the gasseous bursts from my dog's hindquarters! Also, perhaps add paper cuts to the mix?

but in terms of power...yah,even a guardsmen helmet packs more punch.

Actually, it packs exactly the same amount of punch.

Lasgun=strength 3

Guardsmen Headbutt=strength 3

really the headbutt is str 3?

im the mid of battle i'd take a lasgun shot to the chest no prob, just tell me so i can remove my shirt so it bounces off better.

But in battle if i see a guardsman about to headbutt me id back up a sec and try to avoid it.

Gotta love Lasguns, it's the only thing that kills my opponents Termies...no really he saves against everything I throw at him except lasguns!

Now if it is against that evil rabbit from Monty Python's Holy Grail...."run away!"

Orkeosaurus really honours his forum rank, doesn't he?

hmm, in all seriousness if you were to actualy guess the power of a las gun it would proably rank less than the power of a modern bullet simply because its just a bolt of amped up energy that can slightly pucture skin to cause a light flesh wound and some serious skin burn. i would rate the power of a las-beam to the power of a 3-inch blade being stabed into someone.thats per beam so it would explain how it could possibly even have a chance of killing tough things(enough 3-inch little wounds eventualy do kill orks, tyranids, and space marines!)

I like how in every book with lasguns, sometimes 9liek when main characters are shot at) it is a "lancing pain" or a "cauterised burn scar"....

but when a red-shirt eats it?

"his head explodes in a pink mist"

Maybe the lasgun should have rules so that it can only really hurt non IC characters, or sergeants

nah but seriously, how would las guns have the str to even make heads explode. you need a gun with an explosive shell to do that aka bolt pistols and such

i say anything you can hear

Funions are absolutly more powerfull then lasguns.

The ULTIMATE anti Technology weapon.

A Thumb Drive. With Windows ME on it. With no service packs.

Land Raiders? Their Machine Spirit goes blue.
Monoliths? Blue.
Falcons? They just Asplode...

Bolwgun Loaded w. Christmas lights.

I wanted to vote for a Nerf dartgun but it wasn't there.

Then I thought Flashlights, but lasguns ARE flashlights so that didn't work either.

Finally I went with the uber powerful, kills-all-apps Blue screen of death.

LOL

Lasguns are awsome. Why because the look on your opponets face when his necrons bite it to a guard squad! Macs for the win.

A harsh glare...

pointing at your enemy and saying "Bang!" Especially if you're an ork

A pillow in the face can kill you if pressed againsed your mouth.

if i crapped in my hand and threw it at you that would be more powerful than a lasgun

A monkey with cymbols, cause the sheer weirdness makes your head explode.

But that wasn't a choice, so reading.

Put a laser pointer on it, so it becomes twin linked


greetz typhoon

My socks on a stick

AAA batteries i swallod one and my was all lomby and my farts smelt funny

Some of those options are hilarious, hahaha. I chose the ability to read. Because knowledge is power. G I JOEEEEE.

Actually to be honest I think its more because sometimes I've read posts so abysmal that my brain actually hurt. Which is more than I can say for a lasgun...

An unladen swallow.

@ aunshova
What do you mean, an African or European swallow?
Seriously though fluffy pillows all the way
Ork: WAAAAAAAAAGH!!
Sergeant: Right lads, Big green chap charging at us five pillows rapid
Ork: WAAAAAAAAGHMMMMMSLEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPYYYYY ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

*destroys building with slammed fist*

Though it wasn't an option I think cutlery is stronger. My opinion of cutlery being stronger than a lasgun was reinforced after reading the short print of "The Slaughter of Clan Mackenzie". In this an Eversor Assassin kills 317 members of the same Clan mostly using items like butter knives and silver soup spoons.

Talk about dangerous

you missed out kittens tears

That white stuff in the side of your mouth is deadly...

hmm.... Im pretty sure even a jammed up slugga being thrown at something is more dangerous then a lasgun

feer the power of rapid fired flashlights!

I heard that a one armed battle wounded guardian throwing the little shuriken ammo from his busteda$$ gun deals more damage.

All of the above and more

GW never offered to fix the lasgun.

About powerfists: The power field is able to be turned off, so that the wearer can still use the hand to; hold a 2 handed weapon, or throw grenades. It is also said the the most skilled users of a powerfist would be able to catch a glass bottle WITHOUT breaking it while the power field was active! Now that's skill!

My cat tomas is more powerful than an ig lasgun, once she clambered onto the table during a game and there were piles of bodies everywhere. God the massacre.

lasguns cant penetrate anything. I bet an m16 could penetrate IG armor. It has to have the penetration power of a 9mm or something. They would be seriously better off with bullet weapons. They'd be easier to manufacture too.

That or rainbows, I hear they are pretty powerful compared to a lasgun.

531 small 2 inch lenght pieces of string?

Socks with a bar of soap inside

a light live tap from the gentleman holding the lasgun?

I put "a Pillow to the Face"

People are using lasers to rectify their face now right??

Think of the Imperial Guard as a load of cosmetic surgeons.

I voted that I like a Lasgun for a few reasons. Allow me to share the vast destructive capabilities of the Lasgun

Can be used as an effective clubbing device.

Can include a bayonet attachment.

Makes a fun "Pew!" noise.

If shi-... fired directly into the eyes, can cause retinal damage.

Dogs and cats go crazy trying to catch the light.

The shouldering strap can be used to strangle someone.

Highly effective against those wearing night vision goggles.

By attaching a magnifying glass to the end, you can burn ants... and we all know ants are just tiny tyranids.
