That is indeed epic. But not as manly as the other things in the thread. Would you consider the Tau to be manly?

Looking for the Empire spearmen from the Warhammer sixth edition box set (empire vs orcs) Must be unpainted and in good condition. Also looking for MIB Empire State Troops boxes.

Looking for Battle for Macragge and Black Reach Tactical squads, unpainted and unassembled.

I'd have to say that the Crassus armored assault transport would be the manliest.

No, I'm not doing the meme.

A CHALLENGER APPEARS!!!!

Probably the first real challenger aside from the CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT TRANSPORT.

My vote is for the Looted wagon
It's your coolest tank, that we blew up, recovered, strapped the biggest gun we could find to and then attacked you with before we even fully figured it out.
Only the manliest men are going to hop into something that will randomly lurch forward into whatevers in front of it with wet toilet paper armor and a really really big gun

Kain on Tzeentch:
The negative so far outweighs the positive that it creates a vicious cycle, with Chaos ensuring more bad things(TM) and largely only bad thigs happen. The fact that the major Xenos are mostly donkey-caves doesn't help, especially since the Imperiumis in turn, a bunch of donkey-caves.
Thus Tzeentch, god of donkey-caves, is the most generally successful. Because out of this huge pile of donkey-caves, none are more dickish than the great blue Jerk.

I could argue that because the orks don't know what they're riding in, they lose manliness points. I reckon a part of manliness is not just being a badass who couldn't give a crap how dangerous what he does is, but knowing just how dangerous that is- orks don't have that (even meks).

No, most smarter orks DO understand the danger, they just don't give a feth.

Remember, orks aren't afraid of death. So most dangers (like ramshackle vehicles) mean nothing to them.

Of course, the enemy can. Unless 10 of your mates are with you!

smarter orks understand the danger, sure, but there's a difference between riding in a dangerous vehicle and riding in a duct-taped death trap which is probably going to kill more friendlies than enemies- orks aren't manly, they're insane.

Part of being manly is fearing that something will kill you but doing it anyway.

aye, it's the same concept of bravery- bravery isn't not fearing something, but overcoming that fear. (To me, manliness and bravery are similar, just manliness is more physical and requires proper beard hair).

not having fear (or even enjoying it) isn't manly or brave, it's insane.

maybe, but not manly

anyway, an ork isn't a man, so it's physically impossible to be manly
to be manly is to be brave and badass.
to be orky is to be insane and badass.
