So im going for something different here, I want to know who do you HATE/DISLIKE in the 40K Universe, it can be a character, chapter/Legion, etc. For me it has to be Iron Warriors for a start, after reading Dead Sky Black sun I had an amount of disgust for how they bred New CSM to fill their ranks, and im a HUGE Chaos fan hahaha. I have a dislike for the Blood Angels as well for how they Hunt Talos of The Night Lords in order to get back the Holy Relic Aurum. So I digress, who do you HATE/DISLIKE?

I should have left him there. He had served his purpose. He owed me nothing - yet he gave himself to me willingly. Why? I know not. He is nothing more than a pathetic human. An inferior race. A mon-keigh. But still I broke off my wings so that I might carry him easier. I took him from that place, into the snowstorm where our tracks will not be found. He is heavy. And he is dying. And he is slowing me down. But I will save him. Why? I know not. He is still warm. I can feel his blood ebbing across me. For every beat of his heart, another, slight spill of heat. The heat blows away on the winter wind. His blood is still warm. But fading. And I have spilled scarlet myself. The snow laps greedily at our footsteps and our lifeblood, covering them without a trace as we fade away.

That's kinda the whole point, it's supposed to be horrifying and disgusting, they are after all *CHAOS* marines, that's pretty run of the mill stuff for them


As for what I really dislike, most loyalist SM fluff of recent years is really bad in general, be it Codex stuff or Black Library. Whether it is Mat Ward's stories that read like bad internet fanfic, Abnett's "yeah one tac squad can totally take on thousands of Dark Eldar at once and win", Reynold's "yeah, 10 billion well armed and equipped veteran guardsmen with plenty of forwarning on a heavily entrenched on a fortress world aren't considered a match for 6,000 CSM's", it all really just smacks of lazy fanservice, and the move away from the "psycho-lobotomized high tech super soldier warrior monk" to "knights in SPAAAACE" has not helped, with the visuals moving much more towards medieval knights with laurels, furs, eagles, etc and away from wires, pipes, spikes, servos, lenses, skulls, etc.

Also, yeah, as others mentioned, Space Wolves. They try far too hard to be too many contradictory things and come off looking extremely hypocritical and obnoxious for it, and arrogant in the extreme. As was brought up by another on these boards, they come off as Space Hipsters "oh we don't use psykers, they're bad, we have the native power of fenris, you're probably never heard of it." even though it's just them being wilfully ignorant. It also doesn't help that they're protrayed and have their rules written as "Marines+1"

I'm willing to say that Space Wolf-hate comes a close second to the Ultramarines...

Personally, I have several reasons:
1) The Burning of Prospero. The Emperor specifically ordered them to take Magnus into custody, not burn one of the most cultured worlds in the galaxy to ashes and destroy the Thousand Sons. Sure, Horus used his authority as Warmaster to change the orders, but for someone who was supposed to uphold and uphold the ideals of the Imperial Truth, Russ was a complete douche.
2) Hypocrisy. What exactly is this 'nature energy' of Fenris? How is it really different from other Librarian disciplines? The Space Wolves use of chants and shamanistic rituals doesn't really seem all that different from the Thousand Sons own cult system.
3) Simply put, Space Wolves and their Primarch are a bunch of rabid dogs. Just the way they act rubs me the wrong way.

Space Wolves. Nearly everything of them. The Vikings-theme, the wolves, the arrogance, the destruction of the Thousand Sons and so on...

I were supposed to not really like Tyranids and Necrons, but after a friend showed me their fluff I do not really mind them at all and I'm really beginning to like the MCs of the Tyranids

Playing mostly Necromunda and Battletech, Malifaux is awesome too!

What an incredibly broad brush you have.

I dislike the Imperium because all they do is kill. They don't give a single _ about what they shoot at.

You can do that for any race and make them sound dull.

Tyranids aren't so bad. What I don't like though is the very idea of the Swarmlord. For the Hive Mind to have an 'avatar' seems too 'human' for me.

I really don't like Draigo because he defeated my favourite demon primarch, and I think that's a load of BS.

Also, Cato Sicarius, Marneus Calgar and Roboute Guilliman, though mostly Calgar. One chapter master cannot hold an orke horde for a night and day alone. 20 ork boys with choppa, nob with power claw on the charge will take Calgar and win.

I suppose the Ultramarines do have that 'pretty-boy' status going. They're basically the big-man-on-campus of the Space Marines, but in my opinion, they can definitely get the job done, and all in all, earn their reputation, if not their hype. The Space Wolves, however are just... Ugh. Russ was the angsty, raging teenager of the Primarchs, and his legion definitely inherited that.

You're assuming the goal of each one was to topple the Imperium and reach Terra. This is false. Abaddon's Black Crusades have all been baby steps building on each other. In general, he has accomplished his primary aims with each Black Crusade. With the Gothic War (12th) he seized the Blackstone Fortresses that he set out to take, and with the 13th, he stands ready to break the Cadian Gate and stands in the ascendancy in that conflict.

Couldn't agree with you more, especially for the drop pod.

In my first game with my DA, I pick up my drop pod by its base, being all careful, and it literally falls apart in my hand.

His rules are fairly gak, but that's in large part because GW went through 3 different design philosophy phases in 3 years and the CSM book was right smack in the middle of that.

To be honest, the Ultramarines aren't so bad in my opinion, even if Calgar is a bit OP. The Wolves on the other hand...hmmm, what to say in their defense...perhaps it would be easier to say why people don't like them.
