I feel sorry for him... He tried to do what he thought would be good and it hasn't worked very well.

Watch for Gerry.
He's by no means my favorite codex writer, despite how much I like the Space Marine codex. Yes, his fluff is usually pretty bad, and his naming conventions are goofy, but he's not the combined Saddam Hussein/Hitler/Satan/JerryWilkinsWhoBeatMeUpAndTookMyLunchMoney that everybody makes him out to be.
Thank you also Mr. Ward for the Blood Angels codex. Another crowning achievement to your hopefully long and illustrious run in codex and rules writing.

Oh hell no. He is no where near that bad. I like the guy. I Love what he did with the Space Marine Codex. As long as Matt Ward doesn't make a blog of him murdering innocent childern or Models, I am completely fine with the writer. I am not fine with his overpowering characters. But hey, he came out with the Vulkan character which was great. His early writings were some of the best writing thus far for the Ultramarines.

From whom are unforgiven we bring the mercy of war.
They will have the Govenor of California special rule.
All necron warriors will be magnetic so that a 150 can clump together to make one big mother of all Necrons and go drinking in the bar afterwards with their Blood Angle Buddies!
He is indeed Saddam Hitler Stalin Satan but adding Jerry Wilkins to the litany would be going too far imho
It's a Monolith inside a bigger Monolith that shoots Necron Warriors. Oh, did I mention it can fly and has been known to tear off the wings on Bloodthirsters and hurl them to their doom. And don't forget its most powerful weapon: the tomb nipples.
Thank you for inventing Chee-toes Cheese Puffs. The finest snack chip ever made. Many computer keyboards have locked up during WoW sessions thanks to this culinary delight. Fat gamers everywhere thank you.
Thank you for inventing the glorious universe of Warhamz 40billion. Without you, the grimdarkness of the grimdark universe in the grimdark future would not be quite so grimdark.
Dear mister Ward. Thank you for writing the nice and balanced SM Codex before you wrote the just-as-nice-and evidently-more-balanced-er BA Codex. Would you please write me an Eldar Codex that is balanced-er too? I would like FNP bubbles for everything too and invul saves on my wraithlord for a fraction of the cost. While you are at it, can all eldar have psykic powers and witch blades for ccw since they are a psykic race? It only makes sense. I definitely think we should have most aspect warriors as troops and falcons as FA or HS - since we are a fast army like the blood angels it only makes sense to be balanced-er.

I'm both chaotic and orderly. I value my own principles, and am willing to go to extreme lengths to enforce them, often trampling on the very same principles in the process. At best, I'm heroic and principled; at worst, I'm hypocritical and disorderly.
Thank you for acknowlegding how true space marines should be, as noted by Mephiston in the BA codex.
One of your most thought out units up to date. If only you could make every speesh mareen like this, then it would only be more fair-er for any marine player.
Thank U <333
I'm a latin bro, so my slampiece cooks me quesadillas.
I'm not a fan of his fluff, but at least he writes better rules than Cruddace.

Thank you for saving my ship and my crew from the exploding Genesis device on the USS Reliant. Without your help, we could've never gotten the mains back online.
