Just wanted to know the opinion of other wargamers. So, aside from the Emperor, the Primarchs and the Chaos Gods (so any big Uber-being) who do you think represent the Chuck Norris of the W40k universe (AKA, the Badass character) and why ?
Fluff Wise, I vouch for Drazar the Master of Blades. Single-handedly butchered a bunch of Incubi before slaying an Incubi master without breaking a sweat, never speaking, and having the look of the guy you don't want to mess with (or at least, his artwork in the DE codex has the look).
What's is your opinion ?

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

I would say avatar if Khaine or the Swarmlord. But thanks to every SMurfs standard issue Matt Wards, all those marines are insanely invulnerable at can only be killed by the power of retcon.
All that aside it is probably Marbo.

I'd call a three way tie between Marbo, a Vindicare, and Kaldor Drago.
Marbo - a guy who blows up gargants single-handedly. Yeah, that's right.
Vindicare - Remember that uprising that claimed whole systems led by that Chaos Priest? Neither do we, it never happened, thanks to this guy.
Drago - Forget it. This guy wins.

Well, probably not. He's a bit tougher than Chuck Norris, so that might not be accurate.

Chuck Norris might be legendary, but he is just another follower in the footsteps of great American badasses like Theodore Roosevelt and Andrew Jackson. Now he is just an old man nearing 70.

hmmm so who in the universe of 40k is a washed up actor who's biggest claim to fame was winning some martial art comps, and starring in some lousy films, and now sells workout equipment late at night on cable.....
I don't think any of the fantasy characters in 40k would give him the time of day.
But the closest one that shares all the stupid style jokes would be the Crassus assault transport.

Hmm, let's see.
He's a crochety old fart, doggedly anti-liberal, doesn't like swearing, doesn't like the gays, spent quality time as Bruce Lee's punchbag...
Goge Vandire mebbe? Or some other nasty git that inflicts suffering with his obnoxious ignorance and get's his ass handed to him by a skilled opponent?
Vin Diesel, on the other hand, is probably Khorne.

He'd be Yarrick if Ghaz is Bruce Lee, cos Ghaz beat Yarrick like a little bitch and let him go again to be sport. Much like Bruce Lee with Chucky here...

Marbo is Stallone as Rambo
Harker is Arnie from Commando (S4 after all)
I am not sure who is Chuck Norris - he has elements of a Callidus Assassin and Snikrot...

I agree the Emp is by far the most like Norris, he's an old geaser who is worshiped by douches everywhere.

Like the great storm of the Horus Heresy, the forces of the True Gods will descend upon the Emperor's minions. The stars will tremble at their passage and the mighty armadas of the Warmaster Abaddon will bring annihilation to a hundred worlds. Know this, for these things will come to pass. |

Only in the movies.
In real life, Norris was a true bad ass, world champion karate expert and tourney fighter. Lee never fought in tourneys, and was about 40 lbs lighter. What ever people think of him or his acting ability, his combat prowess was legit.

By that account, Pauly Shore isn't a loser either. Maybe you should review your standard?

I don't actually know how much Pauly Shore makes or has made, but no, by any objective stance he is not a loser assuming he did not start off with more than he has.

So? That doesn't stop him from being a loser.
That just makes him a rich loser.

Also very youthful-looking and fit for his age, an accomplished martial artist with a pretty decent record...
What has he lost? Perhaps the respect of others?
