Seconded. Also while watching movies -- with friends at home, I'll occasionally yell it out, but in a theater I don't want to be TFG so I just mutter it under my breath while snickering. Avatar was a good one for that.

S3 and T3 are what you get from trained soldiers. Even WS2 and BS2 are indicative of some training, though it's also the high range for normal. Ld would also be more like 3 or 4. Ld 7 is basically a superhuman resolve, since it means a better than 50% to not cower in cover or run away when an artillery shell lands and splatters half the people around you over the general area.

S2 normal but with S4 nerd rage

When you do read all pages. And i am so guilty of the first one. And i collect Necrons.

you guys are right, its impossible upon rethinking my opinion, i wake up, do my receptionist job, and just look at and talk about 40k all day, so thats 40k from 7 AM to 5PM, and then i get home and play games and paint 40k from around 6PM to 1130PM. it has officially taken over my life...and i regret nothing!

You try to figure out the ratio of the scale of height from models to real men, and then figure out how big a frag grenade would really blast.

Also, it didn't occur to me before, but I should clarify that my dreaming and buying weren't a cause-and-effect relationship. I'd decided to buy the stuff a couple of days previous.
