So, I have been wondering about where leaderships rolls should go on this page. I have a little story for you. My brother and my cousin were facing off against my brother's friend (let's call him Joe) in the tabletop game. Joe had space marines and was using terminators. He rushed a Imperial Conscript unit. You can imagine how that went over. Really well! For the Imperial Guard! The Conscripts lost so many units the first term that my brother would have had to roll a 2D2 (snake eyes) to pass the leadership test. And he pulled it off. The next turn. The terminators took enough conscripts out to bring their leadership down to 2 again. My brother rolled a snake eyes! Again! They were wiped out the third turn, but the terminators were held up so long that Joe lost! I feel if that can barely happen in-game, then it can happen in-universe. What trope would that go under?

I feel like this page gives the "positive" traits of Chaos more credit than their due. 99% of the time, anything devoted to Chaos ends as a Complete Monster, and really Nurgle is only one of the Chaos gods with anything approaching actual redeeming qualities. Why does GW even bother bringing up that Chaos supposedly has positive aspects when their desire to make everything grimdark has them reduced to mostly informed attributes?

Should this franchise have its own Complete Monster page? It seems like it has enough examples to qualify.

How durable are Space Marine supposed to be anyways? I heard complaints about how they die so easily in Ultramines The Movie, but how exactly how much abuse are the supposed to be able to take?

I noticed Drago getting the hate for beating Mortorian, but really, that's not dumb for those reasons. Hector Rex beat An'ggrath and all that An'ggrath had fought before were a few Grey Knights, and somehow one squad gave him trouble, and Rex wasn't even a Space Marine. Really, people should complain that we have Mortorian getting off his ass and doing so something that hardly seemed to warrant his notice. Also, why does nobody question M'kar nearly killing Drago if beat a primarch? Before anybody talks, yes I know about the stuff in the warp, yeah that's dumb.

Does anybody notice that Bloodthirsters seem to shrink at points? There's supposed to be over thirty feet tall, buy Sangiunus is described as taking one at with a backbreaker, and Hector Rex beat An'ggrath by impaling the chest, with no mention of him throwing his sword or jumping into the air.

Since Troper Tales were ultimately deemed unsuitable for this site, should all the entries in Awesome/Warhammer40000 that are essentially "let me tell you about my army" be expunged?

A few days ago, I edited the 'Law of Chromatic Superiority' article to include something that, truth be told, didn't really fit in the discussion.

Any idea what the age studs in the foreheads of any of the Adeptus Astartes would be an example for, trope-wise?

I still continue to marvel at how big this page has gotten.

Crap, I hit Enter and didn't mean to...at any rate, the intro has turned into a complete wankfest of over-the-top-ness. If you've got an issue with the change, take it up in the Trope Repair Shop thread; the mods are aware of this edit and it's gotten support in the TRS thread and the 40K thread in the Tabletop Games forum.

I know memes might not make everything better, but discussion before you remove something like this is preferred. Here's the original Statler And Waldorf stinger:

Statler: You know, Waldorf, there's only one thing worse then being in the Imperium of Man.
Waldorf: What's that?
Statler: Reading about it!
Both: Do-hoh-do-ho-
Khârn: BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! RAAAAGH!

Questions about the quote - is it taken from the main codex? I ask because the preface in the omnibuses has the phrase as "...for in the grim dark future" as opposed to how it is on the page.

Can anyone point me to where I could find more information about the Aspect Warrior game for Sega Mega Drive / Genesis? I've been able to find squat by myself from various video game sites and internet searches.

Who aggrees that Warhammer High needs its own page.

Why whenever I think of Warhammer 40k I think of Rammstein's Mein Herz Brennt and whenever I think of Infamous I think of Linkin Park's Breaking the Habit?

Where would Warhammer 40000 fit in under Your Soul Is Mine?

@ Willbyr:

I suppose now would be a bad time to say I personally prefer colons over hyphens? ;-)

In all seriousness, thank you for doing all that reformatting on the trope entries. I know a lot of people don't like the parentheses, and I was wondering if anyone was going to just bite the bullet one day and reformat everything. I realize how much work it was, and I appreciate the effort.

Changed the image according to the Image Picking board discussion. Feel free to put any other image in the image links wiki.

Incidentally, the White Dwarf battle report I mentioned; I don't have the issue anymore, but I believe the Orks lost by something like 8 victory points to 114 and the other player commented he'd had more Space Marines die in a game of 40K. I also recall an earlier one that might have been a factor when a Nid player won the game by having his Lictor fire Fleshhooks at two seperate targets, since winning the game by forgetting the rules isn't exactly setting a good example.
