@Xav: You have failed me...for the last time. I don't recall the Emprah (or I have to admit, the Chaos gods) trembling at ANYTHING. Also, are you trying to say that Gork and Mork only came around when the Emprah was around? Coz at that time orksies where getting there asses kicked. Gork and Mork can't be all that great then...

That's right. If the Emperor trembled when the GorkaMork came to into being that makes them the youngest warp entities around, assuming that Slaanesh wasn't one of the supposedly trembling Chaos. Sounds, as I have often said, like these ork "gods" are either totally made up by the orks or--at the very least--the idea that they are so powerful is a product of Ork imagination. I know this much: the Emperor and the Chaos gods are actively involved in the material world. I've never heard an account of Gork and Mork doing that.

Well ive heard it says Gork and Mork awoke, well i presumed that meant being created. But its probaly a million year slumber or something.
But the point is the Emporer wasnt totaly awesome.
Manchu and Emporers Faithful you are both biased on the subject of the emporer and the Imperium.
(No offensive intended) I am a Space marine player, but try to look at things from every angle and get an non-biased opinion outa myself.

Not really, Xav. I am also a Tau player and I think they have a great background. But I would never say that they could stand up to the Imperium no matter what kind of "they are so fething awesome" lines I could pull out of their codex. Similarly, I don't think the Orks are as great as many of their proponents claim. I think it is you who are biased on this issue, although not to a certain faction for the sake of its background, as you have a tendency to think of everything as primarily a question of population.

Actually the Emperor knew everything that was going to come to past.He allowed his sons to make the choice if they fell to chaos or not.If the Great Crusade had succeded then when the Necrons awoke there would be no massed armies to stop them.

well I'm proud to say that with 3 different armies, they ALL serve the EMPRAH!
1) IG
2) Witch Hunters
3) BA
Also, where have Gork and Mork taken desiceve action? (And don't say they "gave ghazgkull a vision")

Gork and Mork don't need to make decisions. Orks have no real ambition other than fight. They'd never wipe any race out if they're a good fight, because Orks aren't as fun to fight as, say, Space Marines.
Thus, Gork and Mork don't take much part in the Materium other than giving Weirdboyz their psychic powers and giving visions to certain Warbosses.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. 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. |

The Last Church is an interesting look at the Emperor before the start of the Great Crusade, where he is just beginning the ascent to his greatest ambition.
I surmised in another thread that perhaps the Emperor did forsee one of his sons falling to Chaos, and in that moment he could deal a devastating blow to them as they were more closely tied to the material realm. Of course, if that were the case you would think he would have acted more quickly than to allow the heresy to come to his doorstep (Terra). Maybe he was trying to lull the Chaos gods into coming into the material realm even more because they felt they were so close to success in the Heresy?
On him withholding information about the Warp, perhaps since he knew that the Chaos gods drew their power from "being known", or believed in, he chose to keep that information to himself in hopes to weaken them. Of course, then it all went straight to hell when they got ahold of Horus; not to mention Erubus(I think that's the right name) and the rest of the Word Bearers were already singing the Chaos god's praises.

Russ didn't cheat. He could eat more than Emp and drink more than Emp. But he couldn't beat him in a fight. That's why he joined up with his dad. And never looked back. Russ never cheats.

This is Gork and Mork's relationship with the Emperor.
"Hey dere, butt-ead!"
"Oh uh... look I've got a lot of stuff to do with this webway..."
"Oi, Empra, yur shoos untied."
"I don't wear-"
*Punch* "Hur hur! Dunt be so gullybul Empra!"
"Hur hur! Stoopid Empra! Why dunt yoo make like a tree an get outta ere!"
"Okay."

"No, oi showed im!"
"Wot! It wuz my plan, panzeeluva!"

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

Whatever, all that your piece of fluff proves is that (compared to the Emprah) Russ was a binge-drinking alchoholic who couldn't fight for crap.

Who's alive (ish)?
And who's dead?
Besides I think we can assume either;
a) Ork took him by surprise
OR
b) Ork was WAAAAy tougher than Ghazkghull.

The Ork Warlord just walked over to him and grabbed him by the throat. He was so strong that the Emperor couldn't even raise his sword to hit back and would have died if Horus hadn't seen his plight.
