----
* In the [[DarkerAndEdgier grimdark]] future of the grimdark grimdark, there is only grimdark. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A parody of the [[UpToEleven overly dark and over the top nature]] of the ''Warhammer 40000'' setting, a variation on the most common TagLine of "In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war."[[/labelnote]]
** In the Space Marine future of the Space marine, there is only Space Marine. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A variation of the above after considering the fact that, in the 5th edition, almost half of the playable "factions" are Space Marines.[[/labelnote]]
* '''''" {{HERESY}}!"''''' ''[[BurnTheWitch *BLAM*]]'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]Any anti-Imperial statements may result in a Commissar appearing and summarily executing the offender with this trademark cry. It's used to note either: extreme dislike or possible CanonDefilement; extreme disagreement with somebody; anything extremely disgusting, inappropriate or taboo (most infamously in 4chan, Memes/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic); or simply as a hammier version of the word "bullshit". It is best used with a picture of a [[ThePoliticalOfficer Commissar]] for full effect. Remember, posting ponies in /tg/ is HERESY![[/labelnote]]
** In general, Commissars are well-"loved" by fans as trigger-happy {{Bad Boss}}es serving as a perfect shorthand for the Imperial Guard's harshest aspects in some BlackComedy manner.
* '''"DRIVE ME CLOSER! I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD!"''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]Named for a humorous caption added to [[http://www.gobiel.com/sonsofruss/motiv/images/drive-sword-demotivational-poster.jpg a picture]] of a [[ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge sword-wielding commissar riding a Leman Russ battle tank]]. Used either mockingly or affectionately. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrrCY7dgaqs Oh, and]] [[https://regimental-standard.com/2017/10/25/the-history-of-the-imperium-tanks-of-old-terra/ it's become]] [[AscendedMeme official]]![[/labelnote]]
* The [[RedshirtArmy Imperial Guard]]: fighting alien monsters with [[FrickinLaserBeams flashlights]] and [[BulletProofVest t-shirts]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Lasguns and Flak Armour are by far the weakest weapons and armour in the setting (which still makes them horribly powerful though), the joke being that Imperial Guard equipment is no better than a t-shirt or a flashlight. Can be used as a [[BadassArmy good]] or a [[RedshirtArmy bad]] thing.[[/labelnote]]
** Standard issue adamantium balls. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Being the {{Badass Normal}}s of the setting, along with a t-shirt and flashlight every member of the Imperial Guard is issued with a pair of these. Even the women? ''[[ActionGirl Especially]] [[AmazonBrigade the]] [[BadassArmy women.]]''[[/labelnote]]
* [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]What fans believe the [[AxeCrazy Eversor Assassin]] says before some slaughter.[[/labelnote]]
** [[TimeStandsStill Za Warudo!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Whenever anyone uses Warptime. It really should be ZA WARUPU!![[/labelnote]]
* "I DO COCAAAAAIIINEE!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fan-created CatchPhrase of Doomrider, a daemon prince of Slaanesh. May be combined with ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}''.[[/labelnote]]
** "DOOMRIDER! NA! NA! NA!"
* [[RedOnesGoFaster DA RED WUNS GO FASTA, YA GITZ?!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to the Orks' [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve psychic power]], when an Ork thinks that [[LawOfChromaticSuperiority a red trukk should go faster, it will]]. Used to summarise Orky "logic" and the belief in the propa' Orky way things should work.[[/labelnote]]
** "Purple is da sneekyest!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Similar to the above, this is from a Warboss that wanted to paint his army purple to increase their stealth capabilities, [[InsaneTrollLogic because no-one had ever seen an army painted purple]].[[/labelnote]]
** WAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH! [[labelnote:Explanation]]BattleCry of Da Orks, this is frequently yelled by Ork players during battles and fans of Orks in general, especially when describing something awesome they did.[[/labelnote]]
*** 'ERE WE GO, 'ERE WE GO, 'ERE WE GO! [[labelnote:Explanation]]An Orkish pirate song (Displaying their original design as [[OurOrcsAreDifferent Orcish]] British football hooligans [[RecycledInSpace in space]]).[[/labelnote]]
** [[MoreDakka MORE DAKKA]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The desire of every Ork. One can never reach the point of enuff dakka.[[/labelnote]]
* ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'':
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO3MttgvHUY METAHL BAWKSES!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]One of many SoBadItsGood lines in the ''Soulstorm'' expansion. This one is from the Chaos Lord Firaeveous Carron, when attacking the Space Marine stronghold. He'll say the line to highlight the stronghold's scripted use of Rhino transports, apparently forgetting that Chaos uses Rhinos too.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJMLfACod48 "SPESS MEHREENS, TODEH THE ENEMEH IS AT OUR DOAR! WE KNOW OUR DUTEH AND WE WILL DO EET!"]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another ''Soulstorm'' example from the same mission, this time showing off the [[{{Narm}} narmful]] accent of the Space Marine Captain, Indrick Boreale.[[/labelnote]]
*** SPESS MEHREENS WE HEEV FEHLED THE EMPRAH
** [[MemeticBadass Vance]] ''[[MemeticBadass Motherfucking]]'' [[MemeticBadass Stubbs]], who "lost" 100 Baneblades and still won the Kaurava campaign. [[labelnote:Explanation]][[FountainOfMemes Yet another]] ''Soulstorm'' example, this time referencing how the Imperial Guard Commander, Vance Stubbs, made his stronghold into a factory for [[TankGoodness Baneblade superheavy tanks]] (note that Baneblades are incredibly rare and hard to make; normally only two forge worlds are known to produce them, and one is Mars, the biggest of all; this makes the plot somewhat bogus). Stubbs's problem is that a shipment of 100 Baneblades was sent to various regiments outside the system right before the battle that could have made good use of them. The meme mutated into Stubbs losing Baneblades left and right.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIUEVdF9gFM SINDRIII!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Lord Bale's {{narm}}tastic [[SkywardScream reaction]] to being [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness betrayed]] by Sindri in the original ''Dawn of War''.[[/labelnote]]
** WE CAPTURED IT FOR KAY-OSS! [[labelnote:Explanation]]More Chaos {{Narm}}, this time from a Chaos cultist.[[/labelnote]]
** [[SkywardScream BLOODY MAGPIES!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the joke that the Literature/BloodRavens loot corpses and steal relics from other chapters (itself a fan "explanation" for all the gear available in ''Dawn Of War II''), comparing them to the magpie bird. In fanon, this culminates with the theft of [[spoiler:Bjorn the Fell-Handed]][[/labelnote]]
* [[TrollFic Squad Broken]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A truly horrible fanfic, both in terms of CanonDefilement and actual writing, that guarantees a little rage. Popular with trolls.[[/labelnote]]
* The Dark Angels [[NoIndoorVoice loudly]] insisting they are [[BlatantLies absolutely and completely loyal]] to the Emperor and hiding nothing. [[labelnote:Explanation]]It is the chapter's DarkSecret that a portion of their chapter went renegade during the Horus Heresy while their Primarch was gone before they were scattered through the Warp from the loyalists' attack on the chapter's planet, and so the chapter hid the existence of the regenades while being obsessed with capturing all of these "Fallen" to make them repent and restore the chapter's honor. Ironically, there's indications that [[OpenSecret the higher-ups of the Imperium are entirely aware of the Fallen]] but don't really care about them while the extreme measures the Dark Angels go to in their search for the Fallen (such as abandoning their allies just before a battle to investigate a lead, or closely working with all of their successor chapters for more help to this goal as a LoopholeAbuse to the maximum 1000-Marine number for each chapter mandated by the Codex Astartes) ''are'' worrying them.[[/labelnote]]
* Lucius the Eternal will [[MemeticMolester penetrate the rear armour of anything]] with his [[strike:Rod]] Lash of Torment. OH YEAH!!
* The Salamanders getting just about any jokes involving African-American stereotypes applied to them. Or just [[PyroManiac pyromania]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Salamanders are an exception for [[HumansAreWhite not being white]], the trope being something the universe had some trouble with a long while (though their skin color is more technically a utterly and completely pitch black)...and the jokes pretty much flowed out from there. The pyromania is also pretty much only slightly an exaggeration given their rules, motifs and even actual rituals involving things of high temperatures.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Kharn Kharn is a hell of a guy]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A catch all reference to the joke that under [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Kharn the Betrayer's]] AxCrazy tendencies and ChronicBackstabbingDisorder, [[InvertedTrope he is really a nice, ]][[MemeticPsychopath but misunderstood guy]].[[/labelnote]]
** IT'S MY DAY OFF [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn's days off involve murder and bloodshed on par with his work days.[[/labelnote]]
** I'M THE NEW COMMISSAR NOW [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn steals the hat from a Commissar by chopping off his head.[[/labelnote]]
** I WAS TRYING TO DRAW A DUCK [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn takes up drawing. He isn't that great.[[/labelnote]]
** KHARNE LOEV KITTEN [[labelnote:Explanation]][[CaptainObvious Kharn loves a kitten.]][[/labelnote]]
*** KITTEN LOEV KHARNE
* Macha, the ever-virgin [[labelnote:Explanation]]Once again from [[Website/FourChan /tg/]], this one references the Farseer from the original ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'', Macha, and how she will never, ever, lose her virginity.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Angry_Marines ANGRY MARINES!!!]] ALWAYS ANGRY! ALL THE TIME! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A SpaceMarine chapter created by [[Website/FourChan /tg/]]. In their own words, they are angry for the Emperor.[[/labelnote]]
* ALL HAIL '''[[Literature/CiaphasCain CIAPHAS CAIN]], [[FakeUltimateHero HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!]]''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The highly misleading tagline of the ''Ciaphas Cain'' series, it is used by fans both ironically, as intended, and as acknowledgement that despite his claims, Cain ''earned'' his reputation as a BadassNormal.[[/labelnote]]
* X FOR THE X GOD!! Y FOR THE Y THRONE!! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A snowclone based on the CatchPhrase of [[AxCrazy Khornate warriors]], "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!". Oh Exploitable.[[/labelnote]]
** [[Literature/CiaphasCain Harriers for the cup!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Comes from Commissar Cain, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM, snarkily responding to a Khornate Space Marine's use of the above catchphrase before decapitating him.[[/labelnote]]
** [[TheInternetIsForPorn PORN FOR THE PORN GOD! SMUT FOR THE SMUT THRONE!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]Slannesh's version of the catchphrase.[[/labelnote]]
** [[IncrediblyLamePun BREAD FOR THE BREAD GOD!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]][[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/344755.page Khorne Bread.]][[/labelnote]]
** MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Mocking Khorne's name due to its Pun for the word Corn. Even has an [[http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Khorne%20Flakes Urban Dictionary]]entry.[[/labelnote]]
* [[HordeOfAlienLocusts OMNOMNOMNOM!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Unlike every other faction, Tyranids don't have any Catchphrases, so they were given one.[[/labelnote]]
* [[JustForFun/CandleJack Squats should be brought ba...]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Games Workshop discourages anyone that mentions [[DorkAge the Squats]]. Mentioning them on the GW forums was grounds for an immediate perma-ban on the first offence, with no warnings given. The extreme crackdown on all things Squat was eventually turned into a meme, where Games Workshop would send out secret police to disappear anyone who mentioned them. Mutated into them sending assassins anytime they are mentioned. Somewhat less relevant with the release of 6th Edition, which did bring back the Squats.[[/labelnote]]
* "I move and shoot." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Mocking the "tactics" of the Necrons.[[/labelnote]]
** '''''OH COME ON.'''''
* So there I was, editing Wiki/TVTropes articles, when I hear this weird noise, like a distant rumbling sound. Glancing around the room, I deduced it was coming from behind my monitor. I stood up, walked around my desk to get a better view, when suddenly a frakking Baneblade roars out from behind the monitor, crushed my chair, and gunned down my entire Tau army on a nearby shelf. How the hell can a 300 ton tank sneak into my room? Must have taken some kind of tactical geni- ''[[SkywardScream CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEED]]''! [[labelnote:Explanation]]With the 5th Edition Imperial Guard Codex, Usarkar E. Creed's special rule "Tactical Genius" allows the army containing Creed to make a scout or outflank move with one unit of their choice before the game, even [[TankGoodness Baneblades]] and HumongousMecha. The meme inflates this rule to the point that Creed is a MagnificentBastard or MaryTzu who can hide said overpowered superweapons [[BehindAStick behind a lamppost or outhose]] without anyone ever seeing them. The story has many variations, all ending with some poor schmuck lamenting Creed's tactical genius and releasing a SkywardScream.[[/labelnote]]
** The Tyranid Swarmlord is able to outmaneuver none other than Marneus Calgar of the Ultramarines, with an instinctive cunning that borders on tactical gen-''SCREEEEEEEEED!'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]A Tyranid version of the above.[[/labelnote]]
** So, these Tzeentch cultists were about to perform the ritual sacrifice that would allow a demon prince to enter the world and plunge this planet screaming into the void. But then, a Baneblade emerged from the shadow cast by the main altar and began blowing holes in the walls, while Space Marines began emerging from behind the ornamental candelabra. And when the high priest tried to complete the sacrifice before the Space Marines could stop him, he discovered that a 100 foot tall battle cathedral had been hidden behind him without him realizing. How is this possi- CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!
* [[GambitRoulette Just]] [[ShoutOut as]] [[Manga/DeathNote planned]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fan-created CatchPhrase of both Tzeentch, Eldrad Ultran and Creed, the greatest [[TheChessmaster Tactical Geniuses]] in the entire galaxy, with possible exception of [[MagnificentBastard Alpharius]].[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Eldrad Eldrad is a dick]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Created on [[Website/FourChan /tg/]], this references the belief that Eldrad's master plans are only for his own self improvement, such as getting himself a CommissarCap.[[/labelnote]]
* [[FanNickname Failbaddon]] the Despoiler is an [[GeneralFailure incompetent fuckwit]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fans' reaction to the fact that, despite being touted as the Imperium's greatest threat, Abaddon has launched 13 attacks against the Imperium of Man in the last 10,000 years of the game, without one lasting victory because of defeat under Creed's tactical genius and in the end of every attack he flees back into the [[NegativeSpaceWedgie Eye of Terror]].[[/labelnote]]
** Abaddon has no arms. [[labelnote:Explanation]]From a photograph of an Abaddon model with no arms (due to how hard they are to glue in place on a metal model), an extension of the "Abaddon is useless" meme i.e. "Failbaddon the Armless". Speculated to have been removed by either Eldrad or Creed.[[/labelnote]]
* TANKRED [[labelnote:Explanation]]A [[UsefulNotes/TheKnightsTemplar Black Templar]] Dreadnought from the comic ''Damnation Crusade'', TANKRED only fights for bitches and booze. His endurance is legendary.[[/labelnote]]
** TWINS, THEY WERE. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The ending to a short fanfic. Tankred has some really weird (and wet) dream and this is the first thing he says after being awakened, to confusion of all others. Mutated into a NonSequitur used when Dreadnoughts are concerned.[[/labelnote]]
* SPESS WOLVES, WE MAKE PLANETFALL IN OUR [[ToTheBatNoun WOLFPODS AND OUR WOLFSHIPS IN THE NAME OF THE GREAT WOLF AND OUR WOLF LORDS WHAT WIELD WOLF CLAWS. FOR THE WOLFTIME]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Exaggerating the many instances of wolf being used as a prefix or a suffix in the Space Wolves Codex.[[/labelnote]]
** WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF
** [[http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8/Chengar/Wolf.png Yo Dawg, I heard you like Wolves, so I put a Wolf on your Wolf so you wolf while you wolf.]]
** "The best way to defeat a Space Wolf is to wolf his wolf. However, if he wolfs your wolf first, then your wolf is wolfed."
*** Blood Angels spawned a similar snowclone meme thanks to their codex using the word blood as much as Space Wolves codex uses wolf.
** Leman Russ is usually depicted as a female kitsune. More precisely, as [[LightNovel/SpiceAndWolf Holo]]. The explanation for this is that ten thousand years in the Eye of Terror has caused some interesting transformations.
** "[[NoIndoorVoice IF YOU FUCKERS WAKE ME AGAIN, IT BETTER BE TO KILL SOMETHING OR ASK ABOUT ACTUAL HEROES, NOT BITCH-STEALING ASSHOLES]]". [[labelnote:Explanation]]AlternateCharacterInterpretation of Bjorn the Fell-Handed potrays him as rightfully bored out of his mind due to people awakening him every century or so just to tell stories. Most of the comedy comes from the fact that he's been hardwired into an Imperial Dreadnought, and thus you've got the illusion a thousand year old giant robot bellowing out insults such as the above.[[/labelnote]]
*** [[http://blogofthegloriousmongoose.tumblr.com/image/89083537611 GET OFF MY FUCKING LAWN!]][[note]]Bjorn the Fell-Handed [[GrumpyOldMan defends his property from trespassers.]] Also mocks the way he is only awakened to kill things when Fenris itself is under attack.[[/note]]
* [[SoUnfunnyItsFunny Once upon a time there was a Black And White Space Marine On A Black And White Bike]]... [[labelnote:Explanation]]A long ShaggyDogStory involving a Black And White Space Marine On A Black And White Bike.[[/labelnote]]
* Thin! Your! PAINTS! [[labelnote:Explanation]]The common response when someone asks for painting tips. [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/THIN_YOUR_PAINTS So much can go wrong if you forego this piece of advice]].[[/labelnote]]
** This one is universal. "[[http://www.airshipentertainment.com/growfcomic.php?date=20071230 It started out as a halfling...]]"
* It was then that Hive Fleet Kraken recognized that its true spiritual liege was not the almighty HiveMind, nor the Hive Tyrants that lorded over them, but Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The 5th Edition Space Marine Codex written by Matt Ward states that most, if not all Space Marines [[CreatorsPet consider the Primach of the Ultramarines to be their spiritual liege]]. The joke extends Guilleman's influence to even enemies of the Imperium. Sometimesused as a sarcatic term to Matt Ward himself[[/labelnote]]
** YOUR SPIRITUAL LIEGE [[labelnote:Explanation]]The phrase used instead of "Roboute Guilliman" and "Matt Ward" when talking about them.[[/labelnote]]
* Everyone is Alpharius. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the Primarch of the Alpha Legion, a MagnificentBastard and a master of disguise.[[/labelnote]]
** [[IAmSpartacus I'M ALPHARIUS!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the fact that all members of the Alpha Legion refer to themselves as Alpharius to protect their primarch. It helps that they all look the same.[[/labelnote]]
** Roll to see if you're not Alpharius. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase used every time Alpharius shows up in story or RP, born due to the above two memes.[[/labelnote]]
** No such Legion exists. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Because Games Workshop releases such little information on the Alpha Legion, such as the fate of their Primarch, their current command structure, their reasons for defecting to Horus, or if they even really betrayed the Imperium, fans respond that the Alpha Legion is simply a myth.[[/labelnote]]
* "FOR THE GREATER [insert]!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]An exploitable version of the [[WideEyedIdealist Tau's]] CatchPhrase, "For the Greater Good!".[[/labelnote]]
** [[BadassBoast "Yeah, we suck at close combat. It's a shame you'll never get there."]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the Tau's combat strategy, staying out of melee range and pounding the enemy with superior firepower.[[/labelnote]]
** Weeaboo Space Communists[[labelnote:Explanation]]A mocking reference to the rather transparent attempts to appeal to the Asian market with the Tau and their Greater Good ideology as well...space communists.[[/labelnote]]
** Space Pope [[labelnote:Explanation]]The leader of Etherals, Aun Va, was called like that due to the fact that he's a religiously followed Etheral who has the last say in what is Greater Good.[[/labelnote]]
* [[TheAhnold GIT TO THE CHOPPA!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Standard phrase used in reference to the Catachans, a division of the Imperial Guard that is effectively a PlanetOfHats - where the hat is ''Film/{{Predator}}''.[[/labelnote]]
* CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT [[labelnote:Explanation]]Reached memetic status on [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/forums/list.page DakkaDakka]], originating in [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/369671.page this thread]] where the poster seemed to have just copy-pasted the model's title from Forge World's website. Thanks to the rest of the posters in the thread also typing its name in [[NoIndoorVoice ALL CAPS]], the tank rapidly became a MemeticBadass.[[/labelnote]]
** PRAETOR ARMOURED ASSAULT LAUNCHERS[[labelnote:Explanation]]To a lesser degree, this also reached memetic status, originating in [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/369671.page the same thread]].[[/labelnote]]
** Drive my CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT closer, I want to hit them with my sword! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A meme that occured when someone combined the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT meme with the "DRIVE ME CLOSER! I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD!" meme. [[http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/cc345/ouzedh/crassus_closer.jpg Link]] to the meme.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://wasted-knights.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html Fucking Autarchs.]]
* [[ShouldersOfDoom Pauldrons.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Possibly the most distinctive, but also extremely AwesomeButImpractical piece of Space Marine armour.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Cultist-chan Cultist-chan.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]One person drew an adorable picture of a female Chaos cultist feeding an UglyCute Chaos Spawn. Her popularity quickly exploded, her strangely endearing speech patterns (due to a mouth full of irregular, jagged teeth) and [[IronWoobie endless persistence]] causing her to become beloved by the majority of /tg/, featuring in numerous subsequent drawings and stories, including from her creator.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Lolicron Lolicron.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Similar to Cultist-chan above if not as popular.[[/labelnote]]
* [[CreatorsPet Ultra Smurfs.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Used by Ultramarines haters throughout the fandom due to the utter [[MarySue sueishness]] of the Ultramarines as of the most recent codex and because their colour pattern is blue and white, while the higher ups often incorporate red.[[/labelnote]]
* Chaos Champions have one of two outcomes in life. They may either ascend as a Daemon Prince, to rule unholy armies and worlds for eternity, or to become a Chaos Spawn, a mutated beast that...no, wait, I GHRHADIOSJNSLKDMAPKF! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Used whenever someone mentions a Chaos Spawn, one of the most useless units among Chaos Space Marine armies, causes a person to devolve into a Chaos Spawn.[[/labelnote]]
* The PDF tried to respond but were killed to a man. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A meme lampooning the general incompetence of the Planetary Defence Force in most of 40k fiction. A PDF is supposed to be an Imperial army stationed on a planet, capable of defending their world until they get reinforcements that can actually drive off an invader. 9 times out of ten, the PDF for a planet being invaded/corrupted/in a rebellion/etc. will be either completely destroyed or become heretics. These armies are usually mocked by Imperial Guard or Space Marines for their constant ineptitude.[[/labelnote]]
* Tomb Kings [[InSpace IN SPESS!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Highlights some similarities between the Necrons and [[TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy Tomb Kings]] factions (both are Egypt-inspired skeletons that can go back up when killed). This meme predates the 5th Edition Necron codex, but got a new youth from it as more similarities were added. For the spelling, see SPESS MEHREENS above.[[/labelnote]]
* You scored all the points but the Galactic Partidges won the battle. [[labelnote: Explanation]]A fan-made chapter of Space Marines found on /tg/ who steal victories out from under other armies. Meant to parody both the Blood Ravens (known in memes as chronic thieves of relics rather than victories, bird-based name) and the penchant for Games Workshop to have Space Marines show up and be credited with saving the day in canon, regardless of how well other Imperial forces are fighting at the time.[[/labelnote]]
* The [[FanFic/FirstMembranes 1st Membranes]] will kill you with mindbullets. [[labelnote:Explanation]]An army of Imperial Guardsmen generated using the tables in the still-in-beta 40k RPG ''Only War'' used to represent /tg/ in the setting when the Angry Marines aren't around. Known for the hilariously canon defiling concept (generated by the dice completely fairly, but still absurd) of an entire guard regiment made up of unstable, weak-willed psykers.[[/labelnote]]
* Doombreed is GENGHIS MOTHERFUCKING KHAN and is on fire! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Largely attributed to a particularly amusing 1d4chan article, the article repeatedly posits that Doombreed is Genghis ''Motherfucking'' Khan and has a fact list that rapidly devolves into everything about him and everything he owns being on fire. The meme portrays Doombreed as a (literally) flaming badass and destroyer of all who oppose him along with much identifying the Mongols with Khorne.[[/labelnote]]
* You must forge a narrative! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A parody slogan on the insistence of Games Workshop that you are not actually playing a game, but creating a narrative story.[[/labelnote]]
* ''Yo dawg, I heard you like armor so I put armor in your armor so you can wear armor while you wear armor.'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The latest SpaceMarine codex features the Centurion, a SpaceMarine in full armor wearing a suit of mechanised armor. Fans immediately adapted the yo dawg meme to lampoon how silly the concept was.[[/labelnote]]
** A SPACE MARINE INSIDE OF A SPACE MARINE!
* Space Vampires [[labelnote:Explanation]][[FanNickname Alternative name]] for Blood Angels Chapter, whose members are all {{Bishounen}} who feel compulsion to drink blood.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/14758537/images/1304135832405.jpg The Emperasque approves of this.]][[labelnote:Explanation]]A CrazyAwesome fanfic ''FanFic/TalesOfTheEmperasque'', where the Emperor possesses a Tarrasque from ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', made someone draw this picture. It's used as a shorthand for declaring that the thing in question is great.[[/labelnote]]
* From a more meta standpoint, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3p_VuPIS2c THIN YOUR PAINTS]]. [[note]]All joking aside, "thin your paints!" is one of the more common modelling-related critiques given to a new player and it's very good advice - there's plenty of pictures on any wargaming community of minis that don't have their paints thinned and look like someone tried using a malfunctioning melta on the poor souls. [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEaPE4sLDA7s-26V0v6SepDFiznb3y6hx Games Workshop has an entire channel dedicated to painting tutorials]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EogxYu8dgzY MiniWarGaming provides a good paint thinning tutorial]].[[/note]]
* [[https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Faptau THIS IS MY FAPPING ARM]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]It's...[[ADateWithRosiePalms a Tau that masturbates a lot]]. It's very NSFW, in case you were wondering.[[/labelnote]]
* [[CrossesTheLineTwice I roll to Deny the Holocaust.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The introduction of the 6th edition of the game saw the introduction of a new rule: Deny the Witch. This allows a unit a roll to defend against enemy psychic powers, if a slim one. Such a roll is sometimes abbreviated as "Deny" or "DTW". The 5th edition rulebook for the Grey Knights included a power called "Holocaust", which targets an area around the model using it. The defending player can roll to defend against this attack, but because of the poor wording a player can, before they realize what they are saying, announce that they roll to Deny the Holocaust.[[/labelnote]]

* In the [[DarkerAndEdgier grimdark]] future of the grimdark grimdark, there is only grimdark. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A parody of the [[UpToEleven overly dark and over the top nature]] of the ''Warhammer 40000'' setting, a variation on the most common TagLine of "In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war."[[/labelnote]]

* '''"DRIVE ME CLOSER! I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD!"''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]Named for a humorous caption added to [[http://www.gobiel.com/sonsofruss/motiv/images/drive-sword-demotivational-poster.jpg a picture]] of a [[ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge sword-wielding commissar riding a Leman Russ battle tank]]. Used either mockingly or affectionately.

* The [[RedshirtArmy Imperial Guard]]: fighting alien monsters with [[FrickinLaserBeams flashlights]] and [[BulletProofVest t-shirts]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Lasguns and Flak Armour are by far the weakest weapons and armour in the setting (which still makes them horribly powerful though), the joke being that Imperial Guard equipment is no better than a t-shirt or a flashlight. Can be used as a [[BadassArmy good]] or a [[RedshirtArmy bad]] thing.[[/labelnote]]
** Standard issue adamantium balls. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Being the {{Badass Normal}}s of the setting, along with a t-shirt and flashlight every member of the Imperial Guard is issued with a pair of these. Even the women? ''[[ActionGirl Especially]] [[AmazonBrigade the]] [[BadassArmy women.]]''[[/labelnote]]
* [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]What fans believe the [[AxeCrazy Eversor Assassin]] says before some slaughter.[[/labelnote]]
** [[TimeStandsStill Za Warudo!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Whenever anyone uses Warptime. It really should be ZA WARUPU!![[/labelnote]]
* "I DO COCAAAAAIIINEE!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fan-created CatchPhrase of Doomrider, a daemon prince of Slaanesh. May be combined with ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}''.[[/labelnote]]
** "DOOMRIDER! NA! NA! NA!"
* [[RedOnesGoFaster DA RED WUNS GO FASTA, YA GITZ?!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Due to the Orks' [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve psychic power]], when an Ork thinks that [[LawOfChromaticSuperiority a red trukk should go faster, it will]]. Used to summarise Orky "logic" and the belief in the propa' Orky way things should work.[[/labelnote]]
** "Purple is da sneekyest!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Similar to the above, this is from a Warboss that wanted to paint his army purple to increase their stealth capabilities, [[InsaneTrollLogic because no-one had ever seen an army painted purple]].[[/labelnote]]
** WAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH! [[labelnote:Explanation]]BattleCry of Da Orks, this is frequently yelled by Ork players during battles and fans of Orks in general, especially when describing something awesome they did.[[/labelnote]]
*** 'ERE WE GO, 'ERE WE GO, 'ERE WE GO! [[labelnote:Explanation]]An Orkish pirate song (Displaying their original design as [[OurOrcsAreDifferent Orcish]] British football hooligans [[RecycledInSpace in space]]).[[/labelnote]]

* ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'':
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO3MttgvHUY METAHL BAWKSES!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]One of many SoBadItsGood lines in the ''Soulstorm'' expansion. This one is from the Chaos Lord Firaeveous Carron, when attacking the Space Marine stronghold. He'll say the line to highlight the stronghold's scripted use of Rhino transports, apparently forgetting that Chaos uses Rhinos too.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJMLfACod48 "SPESS MEHREENS, TODEH THE ENEMEH IS AT OUR DOAR! WE KNOW OUR DUTEH AND WE WILL DO EET!"]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Another ''Soulstorm'' example from the same mission, this time showing off the [[{{Narm}} narmful]] accent of the Space Marine Captain, Indrick Boreale.[[/labelnote]]
*** SPESS MEHREENS WE HEEV FEHLED THE EMPRAH
** [[MemeticBadass Vance]] ''[[MemeticBadass Motherfucking]]'' [[MemeticBadass Stubbs]], who "lost" 100 Baneblades and still won the Kaurava campaign. [[labelnote:Explanation]][[FountainOfMemes Yet another]] ''Soulstorm'' example, this time referencing how the Imperial Guard Commander, Vance Stubbs, made his stronghold into a factory for [[TankGoodness Baneblade superheavy tanks]] (note that Baneblades are incredibly rare and hard to make; normally only two forge worlds are known to produce them, and one is Mars, the biggest of all; this makes the plot somewhat bogus). Stubbs's problem is that a shipment of 100 Baneblades was sent to various regiments outside the system right before the battle that could have made good use of them. The meme mutated into Stubbs losing Baneblades left and right.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIUEVdF9gFM SINDRIII!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Lord Bale's {{narm}}tastic [[SkywardScream reaction]] to being [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness betrayed]] by Sindri in the original ''Dawn of War''.[[/labelnote]]
** WE CAPTURED IT FOR KAY-OSS! [[labelnote:Explanation]]More Chaos {{Narm}}, this time from a Chaos cultist.[[/labelnote]]
** [[SkywardScream BLOODY MAGPIES!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the joke that the Literature/BloodRavens loot corpses and steal relics from other chapters (itself a fan "explanation" for all the gear available in ''Dawn Of War II''), comparing them to the magpie bird. In fanon, this culminates with the theft of [[spoiler:Bjorn the Fell-Handed]][[/labelnote]]
* [[TrollFic Squad Broken]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A truly horrible fanfic, both in terms of CanonDefilement and actual writing, that guarantees a little rage. Popular with trolls.[[/labelnote]]
* The Dark Angels [[NoIndoorVoice loudly]] insisting they are [[BlatantLies absolutely and completely loyal]] to the Emperor and hiding nothing. [[labelnote:Explanation]]It is the chapter's DarkSecret that a portion of their chapter went renegade during the Horus Heresy while their Primarch was gone before they were scattered through the Warp from the loyalists' attack on the chapter's planet, and so the chapter hid the existence of the regenades while being obsessed with capturing all of these "Fallen" to make them repent and restore the chapter's honor. Ironically, there's indications that [[OpenSecret the higher-ups of the Imperium are entirely aware of the Fallen]] but don't really care about them while the extreme measures the Dark Angels go to in their search for the Fallen (such as abandoning their allies just before a battle to investigate a lead, or closely working with all of their successor chapters for more help to this goal as a LoopholeAbuse to the maximum 1000-Marine number for each chapter mandated by the Codex Astartes) ''are'' worrying them.[[/labelnote]]
* Lucius the Eternal will [[MemeticMolester penetrate the rear armour of anything]] with his [[strike:Rod]] Lash of Torment. OH YEAH!!
* The Salamanders getting just about any jokes involving African-American stereotypes applied to them. Or just [[PyroManiac pyromania]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Salamanders are an exception for [[HumansAreWhite not being white]], the trope being something the universe had some trouble with a long while (though their skin color is more technically a utterly and completely pitch black)...and the jokes pretty much flowed out from there. The pyromania is also pretty much only slightly an exaggeration given their rules, motifs and even actual rituals involving things of high temperatures.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Kharn Kharn is a hell of a guy]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A catch all reference to the joke that under [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Kharn the Betrayer's]] AxCrazy tendencies and ChronicBackstabbingDisorder, [[InvertedTrope he is really a nice, ]][[MemeticPsychopath but misunderstood guy]].[[/labelnote]]
** IT'S MY DAY OFF [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn's days off involve murder and bloodshed on par with his work days.[[/labelnote]]
** I'M THE NEW COMMISSAR NOW [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn steals the hat from a Commissar by chopping off his head.[[/labelnote]]
** I WAS TRYING TO DRAW A DUCK [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kharn takes up drawing. He isn't that great.[[/labelnote]]

* Macha, the ever-virgin [[labelnote:Explanation]]Once again from [[Website/FourChan /tg/]], this one references the Farseer from the original ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'', Macha, and how she will never, ever, lose her virginity.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Angry_Marines ANGRY MARINES!!!]] ALWAYS ANGRY! ALL THE TIME! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A SpaceMarine chapter created by [[Website/FourChan /tg/]]. In their own words, they are angry for the Emperor.[[/labelnote]]
* ALL HAIL '''[[Literature/CiaphasCain CIAPHAS CAIN]], [[FakeUltimateHero HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!]]''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The highly misleading tagline of the ''Ciaphas Cain'' series, it is used by fans both ironically, as intended, and as acknowledgement that despite his claims, Cain ''earned'' his reputation as a BadassNormal.[[/labelnote]]
* X FOR THE X GOD!! Y FOR THE Y THRONE!! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A snowclone based on the CatchPhrase of [[AxCrazy Khornate warriors]], "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!". Oh Exploitable.[[/labelnote]]
** [[Literature/CiaphasCain Harriers for the cup!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Comes from Commissar Cain, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM, snarkily responding to a Khornate Space Marine's use of the above catchphrase before decapitating him.[[/labelnote]]
** [[TheInternetIsForPorn PORN FOR THE PORN GOD! SMUT FOR THE SMUT THRONE!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]Slannesh's version of the catchphrase.[[/labelnote]]

** MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Mocking Khorne's name due to its Pun for the word Corn. Even has an [[http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Khorne%20Flakes Urban Dictionary]]entry.[[/labelnote]]
* [[HordeOfAlienLocusts OMNOMNOMNOM!!!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Unlike every other faction, Tyranids don't have any Catchphrases, so they were given one.[[/labelnote]]
* [[JustForFun/CandleJack Squats should be brought ba...]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Games Workshop discourages anyone that mentions [[DorkAge the Squats]]. Mentioning them on the GW forums was grounds for an immediate perma-ban on the first offence, with no warnings given. The extreme crackdown on all things Squat was eventually turned into a meme, where Games Workshop would send out secret police to disappear anyone who mentioned them. Mutated into them sending assassins anytime they are mentioned. Somewhat less relevant with the release of 6th Edition, which did bring back the Squats.[[/labelnote]]
* "I move and shoot." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Mocking the "tactics" of the Necrons.[[/labelnote]]
** '''''OH COME ON.'''''
* So there I was, editing Wiki/TVTropes articles, when I hear this weird noise, like a distant rumbling sound. Glancing around the room, I deduced it was coming from behind my monitor. I stood up, walked around my desk to get a better view, when suddenly a frakking Baneblade roars out from behind the monitor, crushed my chair, and gunned down my entire Tau army on a nearby shelf. How the hell can a 300 ton tank sneak into my room? Must have taken some kind of tactical geni- ''[[SkywardScream CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEED]]''! [[labelnote:Explanation]]With the 5th Edition Imperial Guard Codex, Usarkar E. Creed's special rule "Tactical Genius" allows the army containing Creed to make a scout or outflank move with one unit of their choice before the game, even [[TankGoodness Baneblades]] and HumongousMecha. The meme inflates this rule to the point that Creed is a MagnificentBastard or MaryTzu who can hide said overpowered superweapons [[BehindAStick behind a lamppost or outhose]] without anyone ever seeing them. The story has many variations, all ending with some poor schmuck lamenting Creed's tactical genius and releasing a SkywardScream.[[/labelnote]]
** The Tyranid Swarmlord is able to outmaneuver none other than Marneus Calgar of the Ultramarines, with an instinctive cunning that borders on tactical gen-''SCREEEEEEEEED!'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]A Tyranid version of the above.[[/labelnote]]
** So, these Tzeentch cultists were about to perform the ritual sacrifice that would allow a demon prince to enter the world and plunge this planet screaming into the void. But then, a Baneblade emerged from the shadow cast by the main altar and began blowing holes in the walls, while Space Marines began emerging from behind the ornamental candelabra. And when the high priest tried to complete the sacrifice before the Space Marines could stop him, he discovered that a 100 foot tall battle cathedral had been hidden behind him without him realizing. How is this possi- CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!
* [[GambitRoulette Just]] [[ShoutOut as]] [[Manga/DeathNote planned]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fan-created CatchPhrase of both Tzeentch, Eldrad Ultran and Creed, the greatest [[TheChessmaster Tactical Geniuses]] in the entire galaxy, with possible exception of [[MagnificentBastard Alpharius]].[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Eldrad Eldrad is a dick]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Created on [[Website/FourChan /tg/]], this references the belief that Eldrad's master plans are only for his own self improvement, such as getting himself a CommissarCap.[[/labelnote]]
* [[FanNickname Failbaddon]] the Despoiler is an [[GeneralFailure incompetent fuckwit]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The fans' reaction to the fact that, despite being touted as the Imperium's greatest threat, Abaddon has launched 13 attacks against the Imperium of Man in the last 10,000 years of the game, without one lasting victory because of defeat under Creed's tactical genius and in the end of every attack he flees back into the [[NegativeSpaceWedgie Eye of Terror]].[[/labelnote]]
** Abaddon has no arms. [[labelnote:Explanation]]From a photograph of an Abaddon model with no arms (due to how hard they are to glue in place on a metal model), an extension of the "Abaddon is useless" meme i.e. "Failbaddon the Armless". Speculated to have been removed by either Eldrad or Creed.[[/labelnote]]
* TANKRED [[labelnote:Explanation]]A [[UsefulNotes/TheKnightsTemplar Black Templar]] Dreadnought from the comic ''Damnation Crusade'', TANKRED only fights for bitches and booze. His endurance is legendary.[[/labelnote]]
** TWINS, THEY WERE. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The ending to a short fanfic. Tankred has some really weird (and wet) dream and this is the first thing he says after being awakened, to confusion of all others. Mutated into a NonSequitur used when Dreadnoughts are concerned.[[/labelnote]]
* SPESS WOLVES, WE MAKE PLANETFALL IN OUR [[ToTheBatNoun WOLFPODS AND OUR WOLFSHIPS IN THE NAME OF THE GREAT WOLF AND OUR WOLF LORDS WHAT WIELD WOLF CLAWS. FOR THE WOLFTIME]]! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Exaggerating the many instances of wolf being used as a prefix or a suffix in the Space Wolves Codex.[[/labelnote]]
** WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF WOLF
** [[http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8/Chengar/Wolf.png Yo Dawg, I heard you like Wolves, so I put a Wolf on your Wolf so you wolf while you wolf.]]
** "The best way to defeat a Space Wolf is to wolf his wolf. However, if he wolfs your wolf first, then your wolf is wolfed."
*** Blood Angels spawned a similar snowclone meme thanks to their codex using the word blood as much as Space Wolves codex uses wolf.
** Leman Russ is usually depicted as a female kitsune. More precisely, as [[LightNovel/SpiceAndWolf Holo]]. The explanation for this is that ten thousand years in the Eye of Terror has caused some interesting transformations.
** "[[NoIndoorVoice IF YOU FUCKERS WAKE ME AGAIN, IT BETTER BE TO KILL SOMETHING OR ASK ABOUT ACTUAL HEROES, NOT BITCH-STEALING ASSHOLES]]". [[labelnote:Explanation]]AlternateCharacterInterpretation of Bjorn the Fell-Handed potrays him as rightfully bored out of his mind due to people awakening him every century or so just to tell stories. Most of the comedy comes from the fact that he's been hardwired into an Imperial Dreadnought, and thus you've got the illusion a thousand year old giant robot bellowing out insults such as the above.[[/labelnote]]
*** [[http://blogofthegloriousmongoose.tumblr.com/image/89083537611 GET OFF MY FUCKING LAWN!]][[note]]Bjorn the Fell-Handed [[GrumpyOldMan defends his property from trespassers.]] Also mocks the way he is only awakened to kill things when Fenris itself is under attack.[[/note]]
* [[SoUnfunnyItsFunny Once upon a time there was a Black And White Space Marine On A Black And White Bike]]... [[labelnote:Explanation]]A long ShaggyDogStory involving a Black And White Space Marine On A Black And White Bike.[[/labelnote]]
* Thin! Your! PAINTS! [[labelnote:Explanation]]The common response when someone asks for painting tips. [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/THIN_YOUR_PAINTS So much can go wrong if you forego this piece of advice]].[[/labelnote]]
** This one is universal. "[[http://www.airshipentertainment.com/growfcomic.php?date=20071230 It started out as a halfling...]]"
* It was then that Hive Fleet Kraken recognized that its true spiritual liege was not the almighty HiveMind, nor the Hive Tyrants that lorded over them, but Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The 5th Edition Space Marine Codex written by Matt Ward states that most, if not all Space Marines [[CreatorsPet consider the Primach of the Ultramarines to be their spiritual liege]]. The joke extends Guilleman's influence to even enemies of the Imperium. Sometimesused as a sarcatic term to Matt Ward himself[[/labelnote]]
** YOUR SPIRITUAL LIEGE [[labelnote:Explanation]]The phrase used instead of "Roboute Guilliman" and "Matt Ward" when talking about them.[[/labelnote]]
* Everyone is Alpharius. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the Primarch of the Alpha Legion, a MagnificentBastard and a master of disguise.[[/labelnote]]
** [[IAmSpartacus I'M ALPHARIUS!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the fact that all members of the Alpha Legion refer to themselves as Alpharius to protect their primarch. It helps that they all look the same.[[/labelnote]]
** Roll to see if you're not Alpharius. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase used every time Alpharius shows up in story or RP, born due to the above two memes.[[/labelnote]]
** No such Legion exists. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Because Games Workshop releases such little information on the Alpha Legion, such as the fate of their Primarch, their current command structure, their reasons for defecting to Horus, or if they even really betrayed the Imperium, fans respond that the Alpha Legion is simply a myth.[[/labelnote]]
* "FOR THE GREATER [insert]!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]An exploitable version of the [[WideEyedIdealist Tau's]] CatchPhrase, "For the Greater Good!".[[/labelnote]]
** [[BadassBoast "Yeah, we suck at close combat. It's a shame you'll never get there."]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A reference to the Tau's combat strategy, staying out of melee range and pounding the enemy with superior firepower.[[/labelnote]]
** Weeaboo Space Communists[[labelnote:Explanation]]A mocking reference to the rather transparent attempts to appeal to the Asian market with the Tau and their Greater Good ideology as well...space communists.[[/labelnote]]
** Space Pope [[labelnote:Explanation]]The leader of Etherals, Aun Va, was called like that due to the fact that he's a religiously followed Etheral who has the last say in what is Greater Good.[[/labelnote]]
* [[TheAhnold GIT TO THE CHOPPA!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Standard phrase used in reference to the Catachans, a division of the Imperial Guard that is effectively a PlanetOfHats - where the hat is ''Film/{{Predator}}''.[[/labelnote]]
* CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT [[labelnote:Explanation]]Reached memetic status on [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/forums/list.page DakkaDakka]], originating in [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/369671.page this thread]] where the poster seemed to have just copy-pasted the model's title from Forge World's website. Thanks to the rest of the posters in the thread also typing its name in [[NoIndoorVoice ALL CAPS]], the tank rapidly became a MemeticBadass.[[/labelnote]]
** PRAETOR ARMOURED ASSAULT LAUNCHERS[[labelnote:Explanation]]To a lesser degree, this also reached memetic status, originating in [[http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/369671.page the same thread]].[[/labelnote]]
** Drive my CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT closer, I want to hit them with my sword! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A meme that occured when someone combined the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT meme with the "DRIVE ME CLOSER! I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD!" meme. [[http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/cc345/ouzedh/crassus_closer.jpg Link]] to the meme.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://wasted-knights.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html Fucking Autarchs.]]
* [[ShouldersOfDoom Pauldrons.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Possibly the most distinctive, but also extremely AwesomeButImpractical piece of Space Marine armour.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Cultist-chan Cultist-chan.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]One person drew an adorable picture of a female Chaos cultist feeding an UglyCute Chaos Spawn. Her popularity quickly exploded, her strangely endearing speech patterns (due to a mouth full of irregular, jagged teeth) and [[IronWoobie endless persistence]] causing her to become beloved by the majority of /tg/, featuring in numerous subsequent drawings and stories, including from her creator.[[/labelnote]]
** [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Lolicron Lolicron.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Similar to Cultist-chan above if not as popular.[[/labelnote]]
* [[CreatorsPet Ultra Smurfs.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Used by Ultramarines haters throughout the fandom due to the utter [[MarySue sueishness]] of the Ultramarines as of the most recent codex and because their colour pattern is blue and white, while the higher ups often incorporate red.[[/labelnote]]
* Chaos Champions have one of two outcomes in life. They may either ascend as a Daemon Prince, to rule unholy armies and worlds for eternity, or to become a Chaos Spawn, a mutated beast that...no, wait, I GHRHADIOSJNSLKDMAPKF! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Used whenever someone mentions a Chaos Spawn, one of the most useless units among Chaos Space Marine armies, causes a person to devolve into a Chaos Spawn.[[/labelnote]]
* The PDF tried to respond but were killed to a man. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A meme lampooning the general incompetence of the Planetary Defence Force in most of 40k fiction. A PDF is supposed to be an Imperial army stationed on a planet, capable of defending their world until they get reinforcements that can actually drive off an invader. 9 times out of ten, the PDF for a planet being invaded/corrupted/in a rebellion/etc. will be either completely destroyed or become heretics. These armies are usually mocked by Imperial Guard or Space Marines for their constant ineptitude.[[/labelnote]]
* Tomb Kings [[InSpace IN SPESS!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Highlights some similarities between the Necrons and [[TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy Tomb Kings]] factions (both are Egypt-inspired skeletons that can go back up when killed). This meme predates the 5th Edition Necron codex, but got a new youth from it as more similarities were added. For the spelling, see SPESS MEHREENS above.[[/labelnote]]
* You scored all the points but the Galactic Partidges won the battle. [[labelnote: Explanation]]A fan-made chapter of Space Marines found on /tg/ who steal victories out from under other armies. Meant to parody both the Blood Ravens (known in memes as chronic thieves of relics rather than victories, bird-based name) and the penchant for Games Workshop to have Space Marines show up and be credited with saving the day in canon, regardless of how well other Imperial forces are fighting at the time.[[/labelnote]]
* The [[FanFic/FirstMembranes 1st Membranes]] will kill you with mindbullets. [[labelnote:Explanation]]An army of Imperial Guardsmen generated using the tables in the still-in-beta 40k RPG ''Only War'' used to represent /tg/ in the setting when the Angry Marines aren't around. Known for the hilariously canon defiling concept (generated by the dice completely fairly, but still absurd) of an entire guard regiment made up of unstable, weak-willed psykers.[[/labelnote]]
* Doombreed is GENGHIS MOTHERFUCKING KHAN and is on fire! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Largely attributed to a particularly amusing 1d4chan article, the article repeatedly posits that Doombreed is Genghis ''Motherfucking'' Khan and has a fact list that rapidly devolves into everything about him and everything he owns being on fire. The meme portrays Doombreed as a (literally) flaming badass and destroyer of all who oppose him along with much identifying the Mongols with Khorne.[[/labelnote]]
* You must forge a narrative! [[labelnote:Explanation]]A parody slogan on the insistence of Games Workshop that you are not actually playing a game, but creating a narrative story.[[/labelnote]]
* ''Yo dawg, I heard you like armor so I put armor in your armor so you can wear armor while you wear armor.'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The latest SpaceMarine codex features the Centurion, a SpaceMarine in full armor wearing a suit of mechanised armor. Fans immediately adapted the yo dawg meme to lampoon how silly the concept was.[[/labelnote]]
** A SPACE MARINE INSIDE OF A SPACE MARINE!
* Space Vampires [[labelnote:Explanation]][[FanNickname Alternative name]] for Blood Angels Chapter, whose members are all {{Bishounen}} who feel compulsion to drink blood.[[/labelnote]]
* [[http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/14758537/images/1304135832405.jpg The Emperasque approves of this.]][[labelnote:Explanation]]A CrazyAwesome fanfic ''FanFic/TalesOfTheEmperasque'', where the Emperor possesses a Tarrasque from ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', made someone draw this picture. It's used as a shorthand for declaring that the thing in question is great.[[/labelnote]]
* From a more meta standpoint, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3p_VuPIS2c THIN YOUR PAINTS]]. [[note]]All joking aside, "thin your paints!" is one of the more common modelling-related critiques given to a new player and it's very good advice - there's plenty of pictures on any wargaming community of minis that don't have their paints thinned and look like someone tried using a malfunctioning melta on the poor souls. [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEaPE4sLDA7s-26V0v6SepDFiznb3y6hx Games Workshop has an entire channel dedicated to painting tutorials]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EogxYu8dgzY MiniWarGaming provides a good paint thinning tutorial]].[[/note]]
* [[https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Faptau THIS IS MY FAPPING ARM]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]It's...[[ADateWithRosiePalms a Tau that masturbates a lot]]. It's very NSFW, in case you were wondering.[[/labelnote]]
* [[CrossesTheLineTwice I roll to Deny the Holocaust.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The introduction of the 6th edition of the game saw the introduction of a new rule: Deny the Witch. This allows a unit a roll to defend against enemy psychic powers, if a slim one. Such a roll is sometimes abbreviated as "Deny" or "DTW". The 5th edition rulebook for the Grey Knights included a power called "Holocaust", which targets an area around the model using it. The defending player can roll to defend against this attack, but because of the poor wording a player can, before they realize what they are saying, announce that they roll to Deny the Holocaust.[[/labelnote]]
