Dear Matt Ward,
Thanks for writing all the funny parts of Beerfest for us while we were busy getting high and drunk. We didn't realize you'd bring our signature brand of comedy to your day job, but we think it works!
All the best,

Dear Matt Ward,
Thanks for the advice! Creating Legions of Space marines after I lost my primarchs was great a great success! Most of them were even found! Hell, maybe we can chill for beers or something when we're all back, I'm sure you want to see Horus and Rogal.

Dear Mr. Ward,
Thanks for the idea of creating a space marine rulebook! The name is pretty good too, "Codex Astartes", I'm sure everybody will love it.

Our swords are hatred. We are the mighty Space Marines. In the Emperor's name, we'll let none survive for we Know No Fear.
Thank you for your work on the Space Marine, Blood Angels, and Grey Knight Codexes, they have inspired me to create fan fictions staring my cross over of sonichu and pikachu, wherein I live out all of my autistic adult fantasies. Maybe one day I can be a famous author like you!
your biggest fan, Christian Weston Chandler, the TRUE AND ORIGINAL creator of Sonichu
peace and have a good day.

Dear Mat O'Ward
Thank you for inventing BLU TAC and the way you left out some of the letters to save on typing time.
With BLU TAC I can safely put up pictures of my fave BLUMARINS
I tried thumb tacks (see how much harder it is to type that) but pricked my thumb and got blood all over the poster. Oh well Blood Angles poster now
and at least I didn't fall asleep for a hundred years LOLZ!
yours in adoration

The predominancet of beer, at least to my knowledge, was because the West didn't realise that boiling water made it safe (unlike the Chinese, who, amusingly, are not resistant to the poisonous effects of alcohol as they did not expose themselves as much to it... yep... some documentary I saw suggested that Westerners evolved to be resistant to it).
FOR GOD SAKE, ALL YOU TROLLS OUT THERE LEAVE MATT WARD THE ALONE YOU If you don't like what he's done, tough, its GW history now, stop bloody complaining and leave the guy alone.
I agreen with the OP he has done amazing things on the SM's, I love C:SM, C:BA and despite not having C:GK yet but having read April's white dwarf, I can only think its awesome to.
Seriously, all you trolls out there, leave the guy be.

Thanks for your efforts. There has NEVER been a codex or rules release without naysayers. No one could do it perfectly, or satisfy everyone. It's so easy to criticize...yet none of the critics have ever even written a codex. I doubt any of them are even published. I like the GK. I like the SM (except Power of the Machine Spirit ) I like BA. I play Necrons, and my hopes are high for them. Keep doing what you're doing, and let the bilge and filth from the naysayers slide right off of you.
Good job, man.
Automatically Appended Next Post: 40k players are like Star Wars fans: they won't like anything new that comes out, because they've made the earlier versions or originals so "perfect" in their mind's eye that nothing will ever compare. Even though the new films were superior to the old in almost every way, few fans will admit it because the older stuff has become iconic.

Thank you for sending you ever faithful and loyal servant bot Shenra to impart its wisdom onto us. I do detect some error in his programming code. It centers around various codices that you have written and the Original Trilogy. Run Norton and then reboot your computer to ensure the programming code is working correctly. If this doesn't work, try system restore.

Thats not right..... The older films are better!
Anyway Dear Matt Ward,
Thank you for making the internet hate you even more.
Sincerely, Asherian.

I just wanted to thank you for the info of carbon filaments vs. the metallic filaments I was originally working on...and yes, you were right, the carbonized bamboo filament offered the longest life span.

I am glad a few people got the binary code joke. You really have to see that movie and know who David Morse and Dr. Ellie Arroway are to get it. The binary code part will make sense as well.
Thanks for translating it Lord Castellan!
