Only in 40k is it preferable to land your troops, engage the enemy in hand to hand combat, then once the fighting is pretty much done go back into your spaceship and virus bomb the entire planet into non-existence.

Only in 40k do you destroy an entire planet because a single leader of a long lost human civilization does not want to join your Imperium after 5 minutes of discussion.

Only in 40k would an ancient alien race that loves vehicles utterly fail to give them anything more than paper for armor.

1) As far as we know, humans are the most powerful race IRL.

2) In Star Wars, Jedi Knights travel to other planets to stick their swords into people.

6) Lara Croft, Samus Aran, Terra (Final Fantasy), Daeneris (A Song of Ice and Fire), Eleanor (Bioshock 2)...

8) In Hell: After The End, Freaks and Abominations can attack by ejaculating on the enemies.

10) It IS better, but there are any, many things that are also bettern than real life.
