He said tankers, referring to tankers as a whole. I think.

Well you can't really blame the man for speaking the truth.

i jest, you guys are cool.

I am not entirely certain of that sir. Their warp signature is exceptionally dim.

Commander Seric: I resent both your statements, and ask you to retract them immediately! Saying the crew of the Honour is dimwitted is utter nonsense!

I agree, the crew of the Honour are completely devoid of wit altogether. Don't worry guys, you'll get a chance to make good servitors soon with the rate that the current ones seem to malfunction.

bwahahahah...

Seric:

relax little man... you are taking the comments of the meat shiel... er the troops waaayyy to personally...

they are just in awe of our manly virtues!

so shuddup and drinkup!!

besides...

worrying too much about what the troops are bitching about cuts into our drinking time...

...and YOU need all the practice you can get if you plan on keeping up with the Wrath!!!!

Luna Pintus: Yeah, we're the only ones smart enough to want to shoot! That said through, we're not witty.

hmm...? 'Manly' this, 'manly' that...are you compensating for something?


and at least the meat shield doesn't hide in 'metal boxes' !...we hid behind a hail of bullets... ok ok we hid in FRONT of a hail of bullets ok!

is it worth mentioning that in our last exploit, against the tyranids, the grunts were giving the tankers cover? nearly lost the honour, but for a cover save

Next time someone insults the Emperor's Honor we will remember that next time you need some armored support...

okay guys- keep this off topic chat in the regimental report please, this is a place for the history of the regiments

I was talking about the wrath

and it wasn't an insult it was a humorous remark

but we should listen to the marshall and keep this off of exploits

This isn'[t chat for the exploits. don't make me put you up on charges for disobeying orders.

sorry

*cough*

Is the Adj. still hung over...???

as was said on the discussion, he is concentrating on his exam. ask one more time, you're up on charges.

just thought i'd add my own thoughts.... i.loved.it

I love it too he is atalented write is purple!

Very nice writing. I like the part when the Guardsman says,

"Sir, we are getting reports of fierce fighting throughout the ship."

"Emperor save us."

Keep up the good work.

The first part was relatively good. The inquisitor was well characterised.

It was however a bit too derivative for my tastes.

Inquisitor gets in cerebro and talks of avatars you even use the term 'small moon'! If it was meant to be funny...... It wasn't.

The humungous dialogue that constituted the second half was also not to my tastes infact i would say dialogue to be the biggest weakness of your writing. You dont even conceal huge swathes of exposition, i am sorry it doesnt cut it for me. Must try harder.

The second part was weak i am afraid i didn't 'latch on' to any of the introduced characters.

Also for someone that is always pouncing on fluff inconsistancies why the heck are imperial guardsmen looking directly into the warp?! Something that 'to look upon is to go mad'

The tiny amount that WASN'T turgid dialogue was good, i dig it. However you need to work on more elegant solutions for exposition than clumsy two way dialogue.

BTW: I know it is part of the fun and out of your control but the more hilariously named guardsmen really blew my suspension of disbelief out the airlock.

You probably wouldn't have latched onto any of the introduced characters as the thread is mainly aimed at those who have trawled and taken part in the 70-odd pages of fluff that these stories relate to.

It's harder, much harder to write down events prescribed by 100-odd guys talking feth and battles fielded you didn't play.

Oh! Well isn't this an interesting post that I just found on another thread!

Perkustin said: I don't think alot of what purplefood has said has been fair tbh.

I was particularly taken aback by the supreme arrogance of the 'no challenges' statement. I think it is time i payed one of his fiction threads a visit.....

I looked through what Purple said. He was giving constructive feedback to a budding young writer who asked for feedback. "ooh! that's awesome!" doesn't cut it if someone's serious about their work.

If you wanna review Purple's stuff, instead of going to a light hearted fluff piece for a regiment, why not review something serious he's written?

Go troll somewhere else, Perkustin and leave the 222nd alone.

By the way, it's "paid" not "payed".

Everything he did was inline with what i asked him to do. it also based off of 2 actual tabletop games and it is based off of 70 pages of fluff, with people who PICKED those names. it is also meant to be tongue in cheek.


Next time you want to go demolish someones work unceremoniously
1/ check out where he got his ideas etc from
2/ don't do it to one of my friends.

Gamma Platoon! Form up protective cordon around the Marshall and the Adjutant!

Don't worry, sirs! we'll protect you, sirs or die trying like good Guardsman do.
