**Orkestra**

Calaban raises a very good point. I can't think of any race that has as much fun as orks. They have a blast!

**Locclo**

Tau are the only "good" race (They have no desire to wipe out entire planets just because the natives refuse to join the Greater Good, they were perfectly willing to let the Imperium retreat after they got curb stomped during the Damocles Gulf Crusade, etc.) but the Orks are the comic relief army.

As for any bright parts of the Grimdark grimness that is the darkgrim of the grim dark darkness in the grimdark 41st Millennium...well, I think the best real explanation is that the universe is huge, and there are certainly races out there that haven't been discovered by man, machine or xenos. Heck, there are probably even other colonist ships that were lost during the Dark Age that went on to become thriving colonies with no war or strife. Fulgrim describes the discovery of one such colony ship, the Diasporex, who allied themselves with xenos and went on to live happy, bright lives...at least until the Legions caught up with them.

Oh, and I've heard that Grey Knights are pretty shiny...

**IvanTih**

High-tech paradise worlds are the best.

**Little lord Fauntleroy**

SOB slumber parties.

You heretics disgust me,only the Emperor blessed and sanctified prostitutes are non-heretical.

Sanctified prostitutes??? 100% certified STD free and passed the 100 point safety check!

**DarkLight451**

the brightest part of the 41st millenium is the most inportant thing in all things, life, that very gift is the light of the universe.

**daedalusaf**

I'd like being an Ork. All the fun and Dakka...burny dances, build what you want, speed, fun fungus beer parties...

too bad there are no chicks...

**Reginleif**

You can use Sguigs if you get bored.. I am not so sure about grots and snotlings.. lets not think about this any more.
YECH.

**vleermie**

Providing you have a lifetime supply of oven-mitts!

Squigs are pretty bright and cheery (well not gulpa/buzza/face-bita ones) they are cute, squishy and made of fungus. Imagine the scene from finding nemo with Dory and the tiny jellyfish...

Either that or a Callidus Temple, just you and a bunch of women who take drugs that allow them to change their physical form!

**ANGRY!**

I like the KILLING part!

**Elthrai**

The Eldar's outlook on their future.

Seriously, when we finally die off all our souls will combine together to form Cpt.PlanetSuperMegatronDeathGod that will rid the universe of Chaos.

It is the ultimate final middle finger.

Oh and the Emperor hes pretty bright too. I mean srsly you got to have shades just to look at him.

**IvanTih**

The Emperor,the Chuck Norris and the "good" guy of 40k.

**Bran Dawri**

Being a Rogue Trader, I think.

**Henners91**

The Ecclesiarchial seat (I forget the name of the planet) looks pretty... Just be suitably devout?

**Darth Bob**

/thread

**Bramnero**

hmm... the best thing that can happen to you in the 40k universe... Living in a nice estate on Gudrun and not getting old enough to make any enemies

**Karon**

Eldar Paradise World.

Pina-Colada song plays all day.

**Culler**

This is my bright spot

Try searching Hierodule at any dictionary... and then search what FW thinks a Hierodule should look like. That´s a lot of grimdark there.

**Morgrim**

I am glad I wasn't the only one that noticed that...

Oh yeah babyyyyyyyyyyy

**Albatross**

Oh, Orks seem to have the most fun by far! All the other races spend most of their time just moping about - what a bringdown. Imagine being stuck talking to an Eldar at a party - 'oh yeah, our race is totally doomed, blah blah blah slaanesh blah bla blah...'

Yawn!

**Black Blow Fly**

I have to pick the Blood Angels. Their primarch sacrificed himself so the Emperor could defeat Horus and as a result the chapter has a curse stitched into their geneseed. Rather than succumb to the Black Rage the Blood Angels have stayed true to their original course. There are many chapters that left the Imperium for much less.

**Albatross**

Still, that's a bit 'heavy' isn't it? I mean, too much angst - not exactly 'fun' is it?

**Emperors Faithful**

Partyhammer 40k is pretty sweet.
