Yup, the Ultramarines and the Grey Knights are Mary Sues (still like them both though). Space Wolves are AWESOME.

Meh. They gave the finger to the Inquisition, the Ecclesiarchy, and the Adepta Sororitas. BADASS. And also, they are honorable and actually give a damn about ordinary Humans.

Yeah, as if Mary Sues defy proper authority, get drunk, have really bad taste in personal appearance (I concede they are basically Vikings in SPAAACE!!!).

Space Elves are infinitely more tolerable than sparkling gay vampires. Heck, even anime fan space communists are better than sparkling gay vampires.

I think we are in agreement there. Not even the space ponies are as bad as those as VAMPIRES DO NOT SPARKLE DAMMIT!

Insanity. I've seen the BFG stats for both Necron and Space Marine vessels, and even the latter cannot defeat the former without superior numbers. And slow? Necron ships make Eldar ships look like pedastrians.

Humm I may need to read that codex then as I do not recall that. Over all I like it but the "No FTL" does not make a damned bit of sense as they have all kinds of FTL methods and warp FTL seems to be the easiest thing to stumble upon even for races with no psykers.

They're not supposed to have warp drives. They use inertialess drives that make the Eldar look downright slow. Someone's messin' around, and I ain't happy 'bout it

Yeah its another case of contradiction and fluff not matching facts. It seems they tried to remove the necrons FTL ships, which just boggles the mind as they have other methods of FTL, know about the war, can break into the webway, teleport across the galaxy in an instant..yet can't uncover something even the youngest races master in some forum? They did not think that though at all.

As I recall, the oldcrons are supposed to know about warp technology, but cannot use it because they lost their souls and the warp is anathema to their C'tan masters. The Ultramarines and the Grey Knights aside, Ward and his newcrons are beginning to irritate me.

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."

Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly. Nor Corax either. Even as we speak, I suspect he flees for Deliverance. Sanguinius?’ Curze laughed cruelly. ‘The angel is more cursed than I. The Khan? He does not wish to be found. So who is left? No one, Vulkan. None of them will come. You are simply not that important. You are alone.’ Konrad Curze to Vulkan

At the risk of being declared a hater and a fanboy, I will personally declare anyone who says "Twilight in SPAAACE!!!" a good idea EXTREMIS DIABOLUS. Bring it.

while I myself really like what he did with them, there is the rub, The warp is no more anathema to them then to the tau, they were around millions of years and more or less had most of their tech before the C'tan showed up. Including the teleport and stargate systems. They are levels above any other race in tech, they knew about the warp, they have and always had the power to build per navigator style human warp ships. hell the jarko have non warp FTL and the Necrons are leaps and bounds above them.

I was talking about the oldcrons...the newcrons to me are ok I guess (apart from the idiotic retcon of their NASTY fleet). But who are the jarko?

I may have misspelled it, the orange monkey men who make digi weapons. The recon of the fleet just makes zero sense at all.

It's also well established that the Eldar are not very good allies. For example, in the aforementioned Winter Assault, if the Eldar win, then they cause the Imperial Titan to explode... and don't tell the Imperials. They just fly away and leave the General next to his time bomb without mentioning it. Not exactly the kind of behavior that's going to make them Imperium trust them, even if the Imperium wasn't totally xenophobic.
