Try telling that to a order of sisters



And i second that horus is annihilated for a reason.

Gw took the arch-traitor out of the game as they did immobilize the emperor (also out) and lock the other primarchs away.
Reduced the usable figures in 40k to "normal" creatures, no more demi-gods.

The Emperor's level of power was certainly near that of many historical deities.

Alpha level psykers can level buildings; the best Zeus had was lightning bolts. If the Emperor doesn't qualify as a demigod, I'd like to hear your definition of one.

lol the black templars are all crazys in my book

If the likes of Khorne and Tzeentch are gods, then so is the Emperor.

try telling that to a company of black templars!

The Emporer is pretty much a god.

I mean, he at least eats like one.....

The emporer is NOTHING to the power of the chaos gods!
There so good they turn his favorite son against him and make him kick his butt, then turn half of his superhuman warriors against him, and then make them launch raids against his empire for 10,000 years!

Yeah, but the chaos gods actually do diddily squat they just bestow powers on thier followers. The Emporor does it himself.

Yeh but when your as old as the chaos gods, its like "yeh il do something next 100,000 years".
Tzeench is always busy with his endless schemes so he's never doing nothing and if he is, its all part of his grand sceme.
The emporer does everything, and he hasnt been sitting on his **** for 10,000 years, and he didnt retire from the great crusade did he?

There so useless they turn his favorite son against him and supposed the universe but fled him when he needed them most, then turn half of his superhuman warriors against him because they had no real good army for their own, and then make them launch raids against his empire for 10,000 years and get kicked all the time !

Fixed for truth


When GW gets sick with complaints about CSM, they will drop them and invent a xeno race as replacement!
Read the BRB! new upcoming xeno ! 10k years of persitant whining is enough

Realy enslaving hundreds of worlds in the last 10,000 years is getting our ***** kicked is it!

The imperium is collapsing! The necrons,nids, eldar, tau and etc is making sure that happens, while CSM just like kiling things.

The imperium is so STUPID that they dont realise killing there bony assed emporer will make him come back more powerful!

If you have a million worlds to conquer and only manage to do Hundreds....

Humanity is collapsing! different theatre. If mankind fails,this includes all humans no matter the loyality.
So the end of the loyalists is also the last day of the traitors. Chaos will move on to new xeno-recruits.

Xav wrote:The imperium is so STUPID that they dont realise killing there bony assed emporer will make him come back more powerful!

i know.
But what to expect from creatures who wield markerlights and believe they got supplied with a weapon?

well the imperium isnt doing much better, havnt conquered many planets since the great crusade!

The EMPEROR certainly qualifies as a "God" in the 40K universe, which is rather ironic, seeing as how that's pretty much counter to his wishes.

Well, his wishes when he was 'alive'.

Well the emporer isnt a god or he wouldnt be a skiny bone sack sitting on a throne?

The skinny bone sack is an illusion cast by the Emperor

This will mislead those xenos and heretics to come forth -- then he'll destroy them once and for all

As a god => he can choose his appearance.

Quiet Chaos, back to your Cage in the Eye of Terror!

Seriously guys, if we put a giant fence around the Eye of Terror, it would be like the Imperiums Zoo.....

His soul is beating the stuffing out of Khorne every day, in the Warp.

Yes he's one amazing pysker but he still got beaten up a demi-god when he's apparently a god!

Also if the emporer is a god, and he made mistakes, and gets half dead, i dont see that happening to tzeench or nurgle, you know why?


CAUSE THERE ARE GODS!


DEATH TO THE FALSE EMPORER!

"cause there are gods" => where are gods if not sittin on old terra?

And i know why: Emperor = half dead but tzentchy = already dead (he only a illusion) and nurgli = undead (so no life - no death)



erase those warp-anomalys

He was injured by Horus not because he was weaker then him, but because he wouldn't go all out on Horus. Horus was his favored son, and only until he killed that terminator did he realize there was no chance of redemption. The emperor then went all out, using the last of his strength to nuke Horus. In fact, in that last moment, the chaos gods left Horus' body because if they were hit by the attack they would have been obliterated

Not that any of that matters. Gods are created by the will of their followers, and pretty much all Orks (which are the most populus race in 40k) worship Gork/Mork, who, funnily enough, became massive entities in the warp, dwarfing all the Chaos Gods and the Emperor. There is old fluff where Gork and Mork love to beat on and play pranks on the Chaos Gods, and their is fluff where when they briefly became fully awakened (when the first Gargant was made) the emperor and the chaos gods trembled.

The only reason we don't see Orky demons or have the other gods wiped out is simple: Orks are already built in the image of Gork and Mork, and they just love chaos and mayhem, so as long as that's happening, their is no reason to upset the status quo. (except when it'd be a laugh)

So are the eldar gods just sitting around being sulky?

and by the way, did anyone ever read small gods by pratchett? Its a great take on gods and their followers.

No, just horribly consumed by slanessh.

yea im with the Orks on that one. seriously you imperial guys can bicker with the chaos guys all you want. BUT someday the orks are gunna realize that killing everything BUT the ork race would be loads of good stompin. then its all over for you!

There are at least two Eldar gods still around, but from what I understand, they aren't that big in the whole scheme of things.

Yeh well ork gods rock! but you got to admit in a straight fight who would win, the chaos gods vs the emporer.


Can you imagine slaanesh obsorbing the other chaos gods, would be amazing.

To realize such a change, someone must genetically reprogram the greenskins

Xav wrote:but you got to admit in a straight fight who would win, the chaos gods vs the emporer.

the chaotics would betray themselves and so there is a 4th in this battle => the 1 and only,proud owner of a golden toilet

Well in a straight fight, they wouldnt betray each other! ok then indiviually?

Khorne would get his butt kicked, but i dont think he would get killed COMPLETELY, well i think the emporer would tire himself out tryna hit nurgle, and then Nurge would shove his head in his armpit, so it would be close, Tzeench would probaly win IMO, and slaanesh would dance around in a dress, and jump on the emporer and shove his fanny in his face, so again close.
