* CrazyIsCool: Sergeant Blant of the Imperial Fists, who is basically [[Film/{{Zombieland}} Tallahassee]] as a SpaceMarine. His feats include juggling blades and swords while walking through the battlefield, and ''playing his pipes in one hand while firing his bolter from his hip''.
* TooBleakStoppedCaring: If you found regular 40k a bit silly, then [=SotNTC=] won't help much. Regular 40k stays relatable by making it clear that yes, there is still something for humanity to fight for. The main artistic ambition of [=SotNTC=] is taking every relatively peaceful moment of regular 40k and slotting in a truckload of screaming asylum inmates. Eventually the screaming, so to speak, just blends together into white noise.
