We may be few, and our enemies many. Yet so long as there remains one of us still fighting, one who still rages in the name of justice and truth, then by the Allfather, the galaxy shall yet know hope.

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

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space. |

I should upload it somewhere for the fan-base, but I have a "Thought for the Day" generator written for MS Excel in VBA script. You just click on the Aquila on the main page and it generates a random TftD. Very handy for my DH and RT campaigns where tracking days of narrative time, or just opening the week's session marks the start of a new day on Talis.
Anyway, amongst my favorites are these:
"Life is the Emperor's coin. Spend it well."
"No man has died in vain who died for the Emperor."
... and as my current NPC/Party Leader character in my current DH campaign is a Cleric:
"No army is big enough to conquer the galaxy. But faith alone can overturn the universe."

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |

Stalwart Space Marine

Here's my personal favorite that I have made for my homebrew Chapter...
"We are the Lunar Guard, descending into battle!
We will not return until we are victorious, or defeated!
If we are defeated, we shall rise again as the moon does each night!
If we are victorious, we shall purge corruption!
WE ARE SPACE MARINES!"
Also, I can't remember this guy's name... But his famous last words... He used to be Imperial, so not sure if that counts. I can't fricken remember his name to save my life.
"I ain't got time to die! I'M TOO BUSY!"
|
I ain't got time to die, I'm too busy exterminating!
Now, we descend into battle like Angels from on high. The Emperor depends upon us as his messengers, and we shall know no fear! WE ARE SPACE MARINES!
Space Marines can only be male because marine implants only take with the male physiology. Males and females have differing hormone levels in terms of estrogen, testoterone, etc. Thank you for reading this. |
