Thousand Sons Who needs bullets when you can just melt your foe with lightning hands. Oh and of course what more can a sorcerer ask for than deathless dustman that shoot fire?
I still love the Blood Angels but after learning the lore of the Ultramarines and Imperial Fists its hard to settle for mysterious or quirky anymore. I enjoy all the 40k Chapters but since were talking about favorites/best these two chapters are defined as extreme loyalists who held the imperium together. Gotta give them credit!
I wonder how i'm able to speak to fantasy worlds. First 5 points where to counter yours, then i developed an argument against your claim that unconventional warfare is one dimensional. Hardly confusing to my mind, reason why i asked and didn't assume anything.
You're speaking to WH40K I hope, that would be a fantasy world. Pretty self explanatory. I never said unconventional warfare was 1 dimensional, go ahead and re-read that post, then again until you realize what I said. If you are trying to tell me what is and what isn't unconventional warfare irl, good luck, not only have I done it (UW/FID/COIN etc) as a career I have taught others how to do it. Again, not just books and theory, lots of RL experience doing it, over 20 years. Having said all that, I am not continuing this conversation here, if you really need to try and make a point, PM me and we will continue there, other than that, I suggest you drop it, I am.
Sticking with the Wolves of Fenris. Love them for their vikingesque theme, for beeing one of the more human chapters, and the point that they can still have small joys like a good feast, some bloody melee, and fight for their actual beliefs, like they did in the Months of Shame. Their role as Executioners, and the Curse of the Wulfen with all its tragedy and sadness is appealing to me aswell. Yet, I dont really appreciate how they are getting more and more wolfy (Logan Grimnar as the Wolfyclaus anyone?) In my mind I try to keep their overly superstitious ( I still hate Wytches, Rune Priests still does not count!), leathermask wearing, grim and simple ways of 30k and the wolfhumping overwolfy attitude of the late 40k in balance. On a sidenote: The Lion was supposed to be The Tactician. Roboute Guilliman was The Strategist.
One of my good friends is a big Space Wolf fan so I hear about them a lot. Both of us agree that they're losing the thing that made them cool in the first place. They don't have as much color. GW slaps "wolf" into a name and throws some runes on it and it's Space Wolf. They're turning them more into werewolves with Nordic influences instead of Nordic with some werewolf flavor.
