Why, hello there. I am a huge Warhammer 40,000 fan and know A LOT about the lore itself. I read countless black library novels, books and even have a Space Marines and Grey Knights codices of my own that I paged through and through. How did I become familiar with the Warhammer 40k universe you might ask? Well, it all begun with this RTS game entitled Dawn of War - if you are registered on this forums, you probably would have heard of it by now, one way or another. I played the said game competitively for many, many years (I achieved a ranked 1v1 autscore of 1600 - don't know if this tells you anything but oh well). Anyway, while the DOW's game mechanics themselves were to me, simply perfect (DOW is according to me, the best RTS game ever made, while the balance itself might not have been that good, the game was still amazing in so many ways), I enjoyed the lore and story of the game equally. Perhaps the latter was even more appealing to me than the former. That is when I got interested in the WH40K franchise - I begun to read some books and even thought about starting to play table top but in the end decided not to because of the financial costs.
Now, finally, after so many years, I have decided to spend some of my spare money and start playing table top!

Call me an Ultrasmurf one more time, I dare you.
 The Emperor of Mankind wages a constant battle to protect humanity from the horrors of space. All that stand in their way are the mighty Space Marines. They are more than mortal, they are steel and they are doom. They are the champions of mankind. And the GREATEST, MOST BADASS of them all, are the ULTRAMARINES.
 In honor of Captain Titus of the Ultramarines' 2nd Company, an ultramarine unlike any other - may none find him wanting for his name shall forever live in glory, till the end of days.
Titus understood that the Codex Astartes is merely a set of rules, that it is supposed to guide young initiates of the Ultramarines, to inspire honor and sacrifce amongst them. He was also aware of how blindly some of his brothers followed the said set of rules, refusing to think for themselves thus consequently failing the true test of a Space Marine. He understood, better than anyone, that Ultramarines are not without flaws and that after all they are still human in a way. While he knew all that, he also knew that despite all their imperfections, they were the humanity's only hope for survival. |
