1) We know how to make cover saves.
2) We deploy out to 12", sometimes even 24"!
3) We have very full dice bags.
4) We know how to get to your objective.
5) We're pretty good about multiplayer games.
6) We never run out of ammo (some exceptions apply).
7) We understand the value of a glancing hit as well.
8) We have our kinks (Dark Eldar, anyone?).
9) ATSKNF... take it as you like it.
10) Some of us gain 1-6 extra inches on demand. (WAAAAGH!!!)

My wife read through these and was rather unimpressed.
The WYSIWYG one, based on a lot of 40k gamers that we meet (which seem to generally be an unwashed lot), she thought it should be What you SMELL is what you get.

Why are 40k players unwashed? That's giving us and the game a bad reputation. And how do you get through life o.O How would your co-workers and bosses put up with you not bathing. It only takes like 5 minutes a day to be tabletop acceptable clean ^

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

If you've ever been to a tournament, you know what I'm talking about. There's always at least one (but usually more) people who are simply disgusting. A teenager who's parents never disciplined them on personal hygiene. A middle-aged dude with serious B.O (often times with a big beard or scraggly hair).
