Alright, so I went to see a movie the other day, and they let you donate a dollar to charity to help childrens cancer. Naturaly, I gave the dollar, and they let me sign my name on a star to post up on the wall.

So I signed it "Horus Luprecal".

I shouted "ANGEL OF DEATH!" when I flew up and while I was landing, killed a guy.

77. When you tell jokes about how many inquisitors it takes to screw in a light bulb...

the answer is 3, one to screw it in, one to brand it as heresy, and one to deny its existence... I've had people (notice, people is plural) tell me this joke... It's not even that funny!!!, argh.. I'm gonna go bang my head against a wall.

Hmmm. I think you're over-estimating the average citizen here.

Imo, average human: WS:1 BS:2 S:3 T:3 I:2 A:1 Ld: 4 (maaaaaayyyyybbbeee Ld:5).

I think that the avarage human should be around S2...
Just saying...

**Sir Pseudonymous**

S3 and T3 are what you get from trained soldiers. Even WS2 and BS2 are indicative of some training, though it's also the high range for normal. Ld would also be more like 3 or 4. Ld 7 is basically a superhuman resolve, since it means a better than 50% to not cower in cover or run away when an artillery shell lands and splatters half the people around you over the general area.

**Commisar Wolfie**

S2 normal but with S4 nerd rage
