I getcha, so it can fly, but not well, fast, high, or for any length of time that'll really help it beyond getting somewhere a little faster. It's no dogfighter, but it has a limited advantage in some situations; and is really better suited to long-range jumps than true flight.

@Silverwind Blade

Yeah, it will be like an assault marine from Warhammer 40k

[caliban22]

Gotta love them assault marines...

@Jinxlynx

Cool, that's what I had in mind. In that case, I'm happy to approve your char and their GEAR. As I said earlier to Caliban, I'll PM you, Aristo and Caliban prior to introducting your characters just so everyone's starting on the same page. It won't be for a little bit yet; got to square this scene away and set up things for the next one so you can all be introduced in a sensible way. Good to have you aboard though, and looking forward to getting you involved.

@Jinxlynx Assault marines? BAH! Warp Spiders bro.

[Rhona W]

You kids and your 40K. When I played it, it was 2nd edition; we rolled fistfuls of tiny D6's, had cardboard blast markers, the minis were made of honest-to-god LEAD, and cost under £10.00 for metal single minis!

And it still had a sense of humour!

[Shadowman215]

It still does, considering how many Warhammer 40k memes are on my phone.

"BY THE WILL OF THE EMPEROR YOUR HEAD WILL FIT!" -Space Marines, when trying to make Daemons wear helmets, because memes.

[Jinxlynx]

I dunno about you guys but I say Angry Marines FTW

[caliban22]

take some powerfeet to the domer.

[KaiserElectric]

Stupid question, but you want our new characters posted here, correct?

Ah, but those are all fan-created things. The actual source material used to be a lot more tongue-in-cheek about the GRIMDARK and used to have loads of in-jokes and references to things, rather than being so po-faced and bloody miserable all the time. It's one of the things that put me off of 40K and GW in general. That and their utterly ludicrous price-hikes over the last twenty-odd years.

Not a stupid question at all! If you could please post your character in the characters tab. If you need to make any changes, just edit the initial post with them, that way we avoid having too many repeated posts of the same thing :)

Yes yes, but Dota proves that fan-made stuff can be downright awesome. Honestly I love the RTS Warhammer games, just so much fun when the big fights happen.

You all heard about the Total War : Warhammer?

@Cartwright

[Shadowman215]

Oh God PLEASE DON'T BE ANOTHER TOTAL WAR: ROME!

[HopelessIncubus]

@Shadowman215

My army was Crimson fists when I first started, before I built a Eldar army with my own craftworld

[Shadowman215]

@Jinxlynx I read about the Templars, defended Helsreach from an invasion with the Ultramarines and another chapter....

[caliban22]

I rocked Khorne as my first army.

[Dervish]

Glad to see some familiar faces. If anyone remembers me, guess who's planning on a return? ;D
