For the Lion and Terra!
Because nothing in the galaxy is black and white, Mankind views the Space Marines as a last resort. The last line. When all else fails. They take up the burden. The noble defenders of Mankind. The last hope.

The Toyota Hilux, making sure you rebels get there in style!
a toyota hilux is the Swiss army vehicle of the 21st century, it can mount any soviet built weapons platform in its bed. also works as a good troop transport to.
I kind of want to start an ork army based around the toyota hilux now....

By your logic a knight in full armour with a shield is less manly than a chick wearing a bikini.

They are sitting on a little metal balcony, that ISN'T EVEN ON THE TANK, and firing a fethhuge gun at essentially point-blank range.
And laughing while they do so. The shield isn't to protect them. The shield is just to brace the manliest of manly guns so it breaks the enemy instead of itself. That's how manly it is.
A Basilisk is what happens when two men look at their tank and say "feth the entire top-half of the thing, rip that out AND STICK THE BIGGEST GUN WE CAN FIND TO IT."

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices. |

I can see it now....Nids are now a collection of autonomous hive fleets there are multiple Hive Minds and they all war with one another in addition to everyone else. They speak to humans using telepathy, and they can now ally with Space Wolves as battle brothers, because reasons.
Tyranids talking to humans would be like you talking to your mashed potatoes or the probiotic in your kiefer drink. It is neither possible nor productive.

Where I play at, 36-240 you can direct fire, if you see your target you remove your BS, if you don't see it, its indirect fire and you don't remove your BS, under 36'' its always indirect (picture the gun doing a 85-90 degree angle with the ground)

Considering it can shoot things up to 20 feet away, 36" is pretty much point blank. And before 6th it used direct fire. Now it points its gun straight up and lets the shell have like a half minute of flight time to get to you.
Also, those old pictures they used for the boxart were awesome. I'm very sad that they discontinued that.
