Made me laugh quite a bit, especially the description of how the emperor is maintained alive.

LoneLictor on thread about an ork choking the Emperor:

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

No, but I don't care.

I think that's the thrust of it; I just don't care. They're all Space Marines without a damn lick of difference between them besides color scheme and some vague allusion to their samey history. I am not going to be bothered by continuity errors, because frankly, there is no continuity. None of value to me, anyway.

...thinking on it, this does not sound like the statement of a 40K fan. I think I need to take stock.

And this is not supposed to be an in-depth look at the HH. That minor detail is not that important.

You guys still don't get it do you. How can Ultramarines be a minor mistake? They were the most numerous legion in HH ( around 100.000 Astartes for sure ), if they were present at Terra in the time of battle Horus would get his ass owned.

Secondly where is Olanious Pius or Sanguinus? And Emperor was all beaten up with his arm cut and his eye pop.

Sorry guys, but I am "details" guy...and this video get's it all wrong.

Exactly. Everyone Knows you can't go to katina and Fichina (and Aquas!) In the same Playthrough of Starfox 64.

Gotta pick one based on how you go through Meteo, and even then there is no way to get to Aquas from Meteo.



On Topic: It's funny and good if you want to get someone into 40k with a brief Splash of the Backstory.

To be fair, they SHOULD have been at Terra. cowardly sods

but GW has a hard on for the smurfs and stuck them out in the sticsk so their poster boys wouldn't get their butts handed to them and we would have an excuse for the Smufs to be the best space marines ever!!!

It is of our hobby.
Nice to see.
People call it incorrect garbage.
I think much nitpicking for a "throw it out there" type production.
If I want correct entertainment I may watch CBC or BBC.
I wish I could say "get a life" but who am I to talk.
Have nice evening.
