* AluminumChristmasTrees: Steeve vows to eat Nathan Johnson's heart, excrete it, and process that into coffee. There actually is a kind of coffee made from poo, ''Civet crap'' coffee. Civet cats eat coffee berries and excrete the beans, which have reacted favourably to the cats digestve processes. It's still gotta taste better than [[spoiler: the digested remains of a Space Marine's two hearts]].

A Warhammer 40K's ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'' {{Machinima}} that uses the ''Steel Legion'' [[GameMod mod]] as well, available on [=YouTube=] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQbAko8VMlc&list=PLE0DA1AAA5A401DC9 here]].

Meet Commissar Steven Alexander. He's been sent along with a detachment of Cadian 8th shock troops to some planet in the back end of nowhere because the regular guys can't do their jobs properly . Here's when the funny stuff starts, for Commissar Steve is remarkably unenthusiastic in his job. Among is complaints are that the beds in the HQ ("It totally sucks just like everything on this planet.") are hard as rocks and that he sleeps next to the regiment's psyker who "just won't stop frickkin' screaming". He even complains about the men not liking him (before he even finishes this sentence he delivers such a blistering rant to one of the rank-and-file that the man bursts into tears).

The show follows Steve and his RagTagBunchOfMisfits on a quest to get some coffee. HilarityEnsues.

* ChirpingCrickets: The episode after he's killed has Steve Frankensteined back to life from his squad member's organs. When they all tell him what they gave him, one trooper tells him: ''[[{{Squick}} I gave you an STD!]]''. *chirp-chirp, chirp-chirp*. He is promptly shot.

Basically, if Steve has something, Ivan gets a better version of that thing, [[{{Troll}} seemingly just to piss off Steve]].

* UnfriendlyFire: The Guard Artillerymen don't care that they're shelling their own men as long as they hit ''something''.
