So people have an army name and then a number beside it. My guess is that that is how many points they have of that army? 650 I hope...

<- invulnerable save
<- cover save

Psh, guys he's only playing off of the old US Army tag line, "Army of 1" Each guardsman is apparently an army

Don't worry, theres a long history of nuts n bolts posts going completely off the rails after the question is answered. Just enjoy the ride.

The sly marbo thing wasca mix between Spartacus and Imperial Guard for example (at least in my head)

The United States Army had an advertisement campaign called Army of One, where they put the premise out that each soldier in the army is an army in and of himself (or herself). But they dropped it because the Army of One was counter intuitive to the idea of teamwork in the army .

So my comment was referring to each of Polonius's guardsmen as an army of 1. The Sly Marbo Reference came out because much like Rambo, Marbo is an army of one.

The repetition of I am Sly Marbo and thenoobbomb's "I am Alphar-" is due to the idea that every member of the Alpha Legion all say that they are Alpharius to throw people off... And motyak's Spartacus reference.

Judging by your comment, you're either being sarcastic, or you don't play Warhammer 40k.

Edit: You do play 40k. but it seems as if you don't know much about the 40k background.

Guys, off-topic chatter in Nuts and Bolts angers the Legoburner.

You don't want to anger the programmer.
