I do not support the Imperium! Brainwashing and enslaving. Although at least the IG aren't genetically enhanced, so they're slightly more acceptable than SM. Inquisition is cool, just b/c of their shadiness.

I do root for:
Orks - previously stated they're having fun and their simple logic is actually quite admirable
Tau - For the Great Good
CSM - don't worship the false god! Plus I like Slaanesh so more specifically EC. But I don't root for Chaos Daemons, b/c, well...they're freaks.

Well yeah...but they look cooler, i suppose. Really, I'm just a fan of indulgence, pleasure, and lust.

Where others go to war for the sake of achieving dominance, protection or the greater expansion of their boundaries, the dark kin go to war for the sole reason to inflict pain and enslave.
They're like nothing else in the galaxy, in the sense that they are capable of a conscience and still choose to bring misery and death to all, including their own kind.

Where others come from vast worlds, aboard vast warships and the like, the dark kin come from the webway, the place that is near unreachable and exists between real space and the warp.
There is no telling when or where they will strike, but when they come, they come for your life and your soul. There is nowhere to hide, they are coming and they will take you.

Death to the imperium of the corpse god Mon-Keigh. Death to the Craftworld cowards, the exodites and the mad. Death to chaos and it's weakness. Death to the Ork inferiority. Death to the hive mind and it's insects.
Death to the Necrontyr and their lack of control. Death to the greater good, the Eldar couldn't find it and neither will you.

WRONG. The dark eldar piss their pants at the thought of slaanesh. They take slaves MAINLY to offer their souls instead of their own to slaanesh. They have no protection against him. They may have developed a taste for inflicting pain and some such, but that began for this reason and continues for the same reason. Know what your are talking about before you go on some power trip and act like a DE expert.

The inflicting pain part probably has to do with them being the final remnants of the pleasure cults that birthed the bitch, not because they're worshipping him/her. It's hilarious, really.

I agree, I guess I miscommunicated there. Take cultists and add the need for slaves and you get an evolved desire to inflict pain and to torture, beyond they were even before the fall.

Thanks captain. I apologize for this lack of wondrous knowledge that you so possess. It's a game...
