Voted for lasguns, gotta love the guard.

10 guardsmen firing lasguns on auto kill 2 space marines. I can't say the same for 10 dogs farting.

Actually, it packs exactly the same amount of punch.

Lasgun=strength 3

Guardsmen Headbutt=strength 3

really the headbutt is str 3?

im the mid of battle i'd take a lasgun shot to the chest no prob, just tell me so i can remove my shirt so it bounces off better.

But in battle if i see a guardsman about to headbutt me id back up a sec and try to avoid it.

Lasguns are described as being at least as powerful as machine guns.

None of the things listed on your poll are even considered to be weapons, much less weapons that would be more dangerous than a machine gun.

I don't think you put very much thought into this poll at all, and frankly I think that "the ability to read" must be too strong for you to grasp, seeing as how you are apparently unable to do a little research on the power of a lasgun before setting up this poll.

Orkeosaurus really honours his forum rank, doesn't he?

hmm, in all seriousness if you were to actualy guess the power of a las gun it would proably rank less than the power of a modern bullet simply because its just a bolt of amped up energy that can slightly pucture skin to cause a light flesh wound and some serious skin burn. i would rate the power of a las-beam to the power of a 3-inch blade being stabed into someone.thats per beam so it would explain how it could possibly even have a chance of killing tough things(enough 3-inch little wounds eventualy do kill orks, tyranids, and space marines!)

wait wait wait wait... huh..?

I like how in every book with lasguns, sometimes 9liek when main characters are shot at) it is a "lancing pain" or a "cauterised burn scar"....

but when a red-shirt eats it?

"his head explodes in a pink mist"

Maybe the lasgun should have rules so that it can only really hurt non IC characters, or sergeants

nah but seriously, how would las guns have the str to even make heads explode. you need a gun with an explosive shell to do that aka bolt pistols and such

I wanted to vote for a Nerf dartgun but it wasn't there.

Then I thought Flashlights, but lasguns ARE flashlights so that didn't work either.

"I.. I know my time has come" Tethesis said with a gasp, a torrent of blood flowing from his lips.
"No! Hang on brother!!" Altharius could feel the warmth slip away from his dear sibling's hands

Tethesis's reached out his bloodied arm to Altharius's face.
"I..I have one final request"
Altharius leaned close to listen, tears welling in his once bright eyes.
"make sure th..they put my soulstone in a tank... it'll be... real fethin' cool"
"Yes, you're gonna be the most fethin' cool tank!!" burning hot tears streaked down Altharius's face, as he held his brother's soul in his grasp.
