I'm from New Orleans, the land of properly covered glazed donuts from MacKenzies. Krispie Kremes taste like styrofoam and they only glaze the top half. Hand-made>assembly line anyday, thank you.

Then again, I have real taste buds, too.

Looks at the bottom of fried dough ring looks glazed to me. But if I want non factory made voodoo doughnuts.

Yeah no kidding, that is not fair. New Orleans is in a class by itself, why do you even know what a donut tastes like? benigets are a thing of beauty.

Krispy Kremes are overrated. They're like the golden retriever of the doughnut world. They're nice enough, I guess, but so bland and generic when you have so many other varieties out there with more character.

Try a German fastnacht or Polish paczki sometime. Or one of the countless other ethnic varieties out there.

Indeed beignets are amazing and infinitely better.

I like chocolate filled donuts. Its a bane of my existence that I'm limited on carb intake, yet am on the team that sell donuts at church. Oh the Humanity!

Personally I stick with Honeydew or Dunkin Donuts, the inbreds of the donut world.

But the banewolf as I told my Space Marine buddy is a SM F***ER. I mean if the rumor about its attacks are true, with a 2+ wound and AP3 I almost shat a brick. Especially that its an instant hit template weapon.

Sorry I can't read french so can some one who reads french tell me if this is true.

yeah, its cool and all, but ruins my bloody day. i have 20 squads of guard packing missle launcers right now, and in may i have to move them all out

The best donuts I've ever had come from Long's Bakery, in Indy. Absolute gamer kryptonite.

This actually ties in to gaming somewhat, as GenCon is in Indy, and many of you go to GenCon - sooooooo, if possible, when in Indy for GenCon, try to get to one of their locations and get some fresh donuts. The earlier in the morning the better, and if you are able to get them just as they come out of the glazer - I can not be held responsible for any ecstatic spasms you might suffer.

DO NOT buy their donuts from the various stores across the city - they don't do justice to the real-deal. (Just like Krispy Kremes from truckstops and convenience stores. Yuck!).

How does this tie in to a new IG codex? Well... donuts are a lot like new GW Codex books - when they are fresh, they are sweet and wonderful. But after they sit for a time, they become stale, bland, and unedible - no matter how good they originally were.

Reaching, I know.

I don't know, but I hope Yarrick gets an invulnerable save as well. I mean how can he be so amazing in the fluff and not have one. I mean surviving being run over by a battlewagon, being headbutted by Ghazgkull, and having his arm chopped off should give a guy an invuln save.

yeah, i agree you with you man^^
or at least FNP

I guess none of you guys ever tried or heard of stroopwafels?

This Plus your avatar is solid gold by the way.

The real deal with Krispy Kreme is the fact you can get them hot, they actually still make their donuts in store, unlike Dunken and most grocery stores whitch ship them in frozen and thaw them out.

Also holding a national chain up to a mom and pop operation isn't really fair either.
I mean Papa Johns Pizza is good for chain pizza, but it is nothing but dog food 9 that i would be ashamed to feed to a dog) compared to a well done mom and pop pizza place. so just like armies and codex's compare apples to apples not pears, they might look similar but are two very diffrent things.

I will be honest, use some of the rumored points costs and leaks,
my 1000 point IG list is getting 1 more squad of troops, 1 comand squad, another chimera, and another griffon, thats alot of goodies.

My grandfather is Polish, and there is a reason why you only eat paczki one time a year...... Two times a year will cause instant morbid obesity, combined by diabetes, and insulin shock, and a massive coronary. Worth it though!

Actually, my Dunkin' makes their donuts in store, although they stopped making the manager's choice which had chopped up peanuts and chocolate on top.

Krispy Kreme is decent but have no variety, you can get glazed and chocolate glazed and wheat.

Dunkin' has blueberry, chocolate glazed, chocolate, vanilla kreme, raspberry, boston kreme, strawberry frosted, maple frosted, and . Not really but good donuts. Plus their coffee is great.

Whoops, quoted myself.

Sadly, you'll find that Krispy Kreme donuts outside the South just aren't the same as those that are. A Krispy Kreme donut from the South is a fine piece of artwork. For some reason, though, AZ and CA Krispy Kreme's fresh out of the fryer just seem to be glazed, hot uncooked dough.

Two generations outside of the motherland and you're a sissy

Anyway, once you eat 15 or so you really have enough for the rest of the year. Might try eating less, but the rose filling, oh the rose filling...

Nonsense. Most of the back-and-forth angst is the result of too little information. If we knew how the codex addresses KPs and Heavy Weapons, and knew which tanks they were actually going to make models for, we'd have a 2 page thread, plus 2 pages for donuts.

Mmmm, donuts.

Rant rant whine whine obscure H.B.M.C. quote nothing from DD valk looks cool so do the other figs lots of big guns ect.
some of you have not been in a kk in a while they have about 2 dozen different styles of doughnuts.

My main complaint was the "Doughnut" sub-thread in the "Imperial Guard reference sheet online" thread.

i.e., time for this thread to die!

What if I modelled my IG 60mm 2-wound heavy weapon bases as doughnuts? Would that drag the thread back on topic?
