**Deadshot**

Damn. I was thinking that too! Along with star lance but I kept seeing the paired bit.

**Avatar 720**

Aye, the only time i'd ever consider taking Starcannons would be two of them on a War Walker.

**Deadshot**

I can't believe no one got mine within 2 seconds.

**wildboar**

Le Primarchs

No legs, 4 arms, not used often

**Avatar 720**

Oh, I got it, but in the interest of allowing others to play, I left it.

If nobody posts within 5mins i'll PM one of the thread's earlier participants and get them to post

EDIT: Ah, no need.

wildboar - Would the answer be Sslyth?

**wildboar**

Well done sir it would indeed!

**Deadshot**

Well done the two of you for getting mine.

The root cause of all hate in 40k.

**Avatar 720**

My strength it is great but i'm comparatively unskilled,
Despite this my hits can cause more to be killed.
I'm tougher than most, for my bones did conflate,
Any injuries sustained I will regenerate.
Stay out of my sight and you shall be fine,
Which should be quite easy, for I am _______.

**wildboar**

That is certainly a thinker!

I'm reaching here but I'll take a stab at 'old one eye'?

**Avatar 720**

I was indeed Old One Eye; congrats

**Deadshot**

Good lord Avatar.you.make us think.

**motyak**

In combat you really want to beat me down,
But if you manage to you'll be left with a frown,
I help with the spamming,
But not with the planning,
For I am _____ ______

Edit: I know the last bit doesn't rhyme, but its about the best I can do.

**Dayvuni**

To re-start the guessing...

12" flat out, lascannons, storm bolter

**motyak**

No one guessed it :( It was castellan crowe

Can't a Blood Angels razorback move 12" and fire 1 weapon and all defensive?

Always starts in reserve, used to ignore all saves in CC, shreds your mind

**Avatar 720**

Callidus Assassin

From on high we descend
Using wings, we contend
With sleek lasblasters
And grenades in big clusters.

We swoop in and strike
Fast tanks and the like;
For we can intercept
At speeds you could not expect.

As our enemies weep
Syward we will leap.
From the ground, fear our squawks;
For we are the _________

**motyak**

Swooping Hawks

We are the council of the royalty of our world,
One of us will give up their life as it is to lead,
With fiery glaive and terrible heart he will smite,
While we flow in his wake, adding out might.
We are the __5 letters__ _2 letters_____ _3 letters____ __5 letters__ _4 letters___

Edit: Loota boy got it, court of the young king

(may be an old unit, sorry)

Grots?

Worst HQ in the game, ~200 points, does nothing, three models.

**Avatar 720**

Can we please have it added to the OP that you must at least give people a chance to correctly guess before starting a new one?

Why would a 5-word answer be 'Grots'? Please can you either give it some thought, wait for a few more answers or for the poster to give it, and then post your own?

The answer to yours is Au'Va, as my question, I direct people to motyak's post above mine.

Court of the young king!

I slink about through the shade
You'll do well to fear my blade
Silver chains adorn my arms
Some try and ward me with charms
But it is no use, they'll bleed red
From their heads
I'll slaughter your friends without second thoughts
You'll learn to fear my name, for I am _______.

Rhyming is fun!

**motyak**

mandrakes? they live in shadows, are violent, are daemon-y so wards and charms, but I can't see silver chains on the model...It's the best I can do I think

edit: nono, arco-flagellants. Right? slinky until their pacifiers are turned off, then they'll kill friends, holy wards are probably on them because of the whole belonging to the church thing, very violent, and the chains are their weapons

I think arco-flagellants is close enough to have a guess;

I strike from the skies,
I strike from behind you,
I strike from beside you,
But only one of these per game,
I am ____5 letters__ ____7 letters______

**NimbleJack3**

They stopped to sit down for a rest,
And to huddle in the camp.
I brought it up and to my chest,
And used them as a lamp.

The host was broken and made a mess,
The camp raised the alarm.
My name I think you'll never guess,
I am the one called _____

**motyak**

Remember guys, you gotta have a guess at the previous one, its eye spy rules haha

**NimbleJack3**

Oh, whoops! Sorry about that. I'll keep that in mind.

**motyak**

Is it a flamethrower armed guardsmen? He raises the flamer to his chest, turns his buddies (them) into lamps (they light up on fire), camp goes crazy because someone's flaming their mates....its probably a long way off but hows it sound?

**BlapBlapBlap**

The Parasite of Mortex?

Big. REALLY BIG. And Green.

**motyak**

Squiggoth

Small. Really small. And silver with green lenses.

Edit: yup, scarabs

**NimbleJack3**

Nope and nope.

@BlapBlapBlap: Catachan?

**lexx108**

Necron Scarabs?

Seen here, unfriendly, father of gore

Edit: twas indeed kharn

**CthuluIsSpy**

Bloodthirster?
Or maybe Kharn?

**Squash**

Why the heck is the thread here?
