Thing is, that Doomsday Device isn't a toy. Even the Dynasty that controls don't want to use since it disrupts the balance of the stars, and it takes FOREVER to fix.

Saying anything like that is far more than fighting works for any Imperial player.


Those are gak-stormin Exterminatus words.

Necrons are immortal. Forever is just like a very long day of work to them.
Besides, I'm sure they will choose an eternity of micromanage over extermination.

This is extra-super-heretical. Recommended method of execution: Leave her to the Dark Eldar.

Here's an idea. When the Emperor dies and Chaos eats the galaxy, Trazyn offers the surviving Humans a chance to use the same science to turn them into Necrons. Then we call use forever to burn all non-Necrontyr and non-Humans from the universe.

I don't think she ever said that. I don't remember reading it anywhere.

I also don't think Purifiers are at leave to butcher anyone they decide is impure.

I doubt it's true.

But on that note, I'd have to agree.
The Emperor is like a futuristic Hitler, except he's killed billions more.

That sounds like something an eldar or a necron would say, but as Valeria is from the Ordo Xenos I dont find it surprising.

However I do not agree. The emperor was not nice, the emperor was not good and in allot of cases the emperor was downright evil but he had the interests of humanity at heart.

Firstly out of all the beings of the material universe the emperor was probably the one who understood the most about chaos (even if it was just the tiniest fraction). Only his burning, violent ambition could have driven the great crusade and had he been a perfect being (which he was not) and not made any mistakes, humanity would be enjoying a new golden age at the cost of the genocide of every Xenos species.

Can't say if it's true, but having a doubting Imperial character who's not a mass-murdering criminal or a sociopathic monster is good for a change.

Where does she say that?

It says it in the gey knight codex and in an old book about the Inqusition

I like this plan

Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing, and then I did a page search for "Brother Coa" and sure enough, someone already said it

And then a supernova. Pissing off the faction that has the doomsday device in their basement might not be the wisest idea.

You know what happened to the last time someone attacked the Imperium with supernova-inducing technology? They were destroyed. Incidently, their technology (which was from the Dark Age of Technology) was taken to Mars. Considering its users were (admittedly rogue) Techpriests, I'd assume that the loyal techpriests were also able to figure out how to use it.

Although I do wonder how easy to snuff out those lights are on the Celestial Orrery. Presumably its difficult to accidently put one out.

He's only a few anti-Tau threads away from to be declared as an Imperial Saint.

5 frickin' pages before someone questioning the quote's accuracy ? Really ?
Now I'd like to be less blunt, but...

Mikster wrote:It says it in the gey knight codex and in an old book about the Inqusition

No, she didn't.
The codex actually says this :

You see lore and creed ; I see only hollow missives, written by a weak man who seeks control over all that he does not understand.

In case that would leave room for debate, I have with me a foreign version of the same codex where the wording is a bit different for what it's worth :

I see your gospel as nothing but hollow words enunciated by a man who seeks control over what is beyond his understanding.

To me it's quite clear she's targetting Darkhammer himself, as before that line she tells him he is mistaken about the true will of the Emperor, who according to her was not so narrow-minded as to put a ban on something that could be used to the benefit of mankind, in true Radical fashion.

A good summary of Radical Inquisitors' views ? Yep.
A defiant blasphemy à la "lol carrion god lol" ? Hardly.

Thank you. Holy out of contextness.

Actually even that is out of context. At the beginning of the paragraph she is talking about the Emperor so she probably was being heretical afterall.

Then I shall see to it: FOR THE EMPEROR!!!

It would be an honor to fight alongside an Ultramarine Honor Guard.

Yep. She's talking about Darkhammer, not the Emperor himself.
