So in this one thread i posted the Emperors famous words:
"They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me. Like clay I shall mold them, and in the furnace of war forge them. They will be of iron will and steely muscle. In great armor shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that no foe can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear."

And few minutes later Guttrench Skullsmasha wrote:
But those my friends are the marines, the guard are more along the lines of "They shall be my finest Cannon Fodder, these men who give themselves to me. Like clay I will mold them and in the furnace of war they will become cracked and broken. They will be of tissue paper and whimpy muscle. In tissue paper armor I clad them and with the mightiest flashlights they will be armed. They will be touched by every sort of plauge or disease to help further make them unhappy, all sickness will blight them. They will have almost no tactics, strategies, but lots of machines so that they can atleast stand up to a foe in battle. They are my tar pit against the Terror. They are the bulk of Humanity. They are my Imperial Guard and they will know much fear!"

That made me wonder what it would that speech be for the other 40k races. Anyone want to give it a try?

In greater armor shall I clad them and with the mightiereest guns will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that even fewer foes than none can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against only the Greater Daemones. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Grey Knights they shall know even less fear."

The orks actually have a speech already, from Ghaz

"I'm da hand of Gork and Mork, dey sent me to rouse up da boyz to crush and kill 'cos da boyz forgot what dere 'ere for. I woz one of da boyz till da godz smashed me in da 'ead a' I 'membered dat Orkz is meant to conquer and make slaves of everyfing they don't kill. I'm da profit of da Waaagh an' whole worlds burn in my boot prints. I'm death to anyfing dat walks, where I go nothin' stands in my way. I iz more cunnin' than a Grot an' more killy dan a Dread. I'm Warlord Ghazghull Mag Uruk Thraka an' I speak wiv' da word of da gods. We iz gonna stomp da 'ooniverse flat an' kill anyfing' that fights back. We iz kill anyfing that fights back. We iz gonna do this coz' we're da Orks an we was made ta fight an' win."


And for the Squa~*head popped by a Vindicare*

(speaking of that, wasn't there a similar speech for the Assassins, and the Inquisition? Or not really since they came after the emperor.)

They will be of iridium will and computerized muscle. In Clean cut armor shall we clad them and with the most overkill of str 10 guns.

You left out the full speach, the part that references the "stunties"


I'm da hand of Gork and Mork, dey sent me to rouse up da boyz to crush and kill ‘cos da boyz forgot what dere ‘ere for. I woz one of da boyz till da godz smashed me in da ‘ead an’ I ‘membered dat Orks is meant to conquer and make slaves of everyfing they don’t kill.
I’m da profit of da Waaagh an’ whole worlds burn in my boot prints. On Armour-Geddem, I led da boyz through da fire deserts and smashed da humies’ metal cities to scrap. I fought Yarik, old one-eye at Tarturus, an’ he fought good but we smashed iz city too.

I’m death to anyfing dat walks or crawls, where I go nothin’ stands in my way. We crushed da stunties on Golgotha, an’ we caught old one-eye when da speed freeks blew da humies’ big tanks ta bits. I let ‘im go ‘cause good enemies iz ‘ard to find, an Orks need enemies ta fight like they need meat ta eat an’ grog ta drink.

I iz more cunnin’ than a grot an’ more killy than a dread, da boyz dat follow me can’t be beat. On Pissenah we jumped da marine-boyz an’ our bosspoles was covered in da helmets we took from da dead ‘uns. We burned dere port an’ killed dere bosses an’ left nothin’ but ruins behind. I’m Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka an’ I speak wiv da word of da gods. We iz gonna stomp da ‘ooniverse flat an’ kill anyfing that fights back. We iz gonna do this coz’ we’re Orks an’ we was made ta fight an’ win!

Congratulations, your dismissive and conclusory commentary has provided nothing to this discussion or the wider community on whose behalf you arrogantly presume to speak nor does it engage in any meaningful way the remark it lamely targets. But you did manage to gain experience points toward your next level of internet tough guy.

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.

Come brothers, follow me, we hunt across the skies! Come, chosen of Khaine, and see how our prey flees!, There is no place for them to hide under the plae face of Lileath the moon, nor under the sun, the face of Asuryan. Feel the rush of the wind against your skin and hear her keening cry in your ears. Listen to her call well, for are we not the WIld Riders, the Children of the Storm? Enjoy the hunt, brothers, let sword swing and blood spill. Feel the beat of your heart in your chest and know that you yet live. Fear not the death, brothers, for she is old and slow, and will never catch the windrider host. It is our enemies who are afraid, for each kiss of our weapons brings the sweet oblivion that they crave by opposing us. Follow me, brothers, battle awaits!
