This. Personally they aren't my favorite Imperial machine. However, my heart will always be with the Orks.

British stuff and other European material is overall better than most American stuff.

Orks are the most /m/ race in 40k.They have boyz named "mekboyz" in their party.They know that red=3 times faster.
Tau are too much uninspired,Imperium's walking giant churches and knights are ok,eldar titians are good too for sleek and slimy designs.

Mylene perhaps. Mylene also argued with Basara for singing on the battlefield. I loved the part where she fought on the red VF-1J and showcased her piloting instincts.

>Why does a Knight have a Tabbard?

>>14091318
The Mechanicus is the most /m/ faction in 40k. They are a bunch of manchildren who worship giant robots, think ancient robots that look silly from days long gone are the coolest thing ever, and they themselves aspire to become machine themselves, replacing such things as their penis with robotic parts.
>>
>>14091318

what about the necron who are themselves mechs?

>>14090262
I hate the modern Knight design.

I still think ASOIAF was a major reason why GW brought back Knights and Knight Houses.
>>
>>14091605
>that look silly
They're not that bad
>>
Ugly as sin. The only 40k designs that come close to being anything but overdesigned trash are the Tau ones, and even those are lame. These are professional game designers and they're being beaten in both aesthetics and realism by the fucking Lego thread.
>>
>>14091618
They are without a doubt the most /m/ faction out there, but they don't have the burning passion for /m/ like the Mechanicum does.
>>
>>14091605

They are not hot blooded enough for /m/.
Only oggd for MOTW
>>14091605

They don't make mkII upgrades that can transform and gattai.Not enough /m/

Ehh that's a gray area. I mean they're machines, but in the laziest form of "we shoved a bunch of souls into robot bodies". It's just a metal form of an animated skeleton than anything.

Good. Hope IG gets their robots.
>>
>>14091745
When I played Dark Crusade,they were my first choice since they looked clean cut compared to other factions and I was under impression that they are race of robots.

Nope,they are typical blue skinned ayy lamo wearing those armors and suits.

I wonder what would had happened if they were the race of robots instead of emo dead metal zombies?

>will be written out soon
So they will be squated soon ?Any news on it?
>>
>>14091751
Probably because ultramarines are easy to get a hold of the armies since they're overproduced, and Japan probably has to take what it can get.
>>
>>14091751
Because there is a difference between a weeb and a actual member of the hypocritical shameless whale hunter ethnicity.

>>14091771
The Tau aren't being written out any time soon, or ever. Despite being shitty in the fluff, and logically should be wiped out by the Tyranids, they are consistently one of the best sellers in terms of models.

And they recently got two consecutive campaign books that actually advanced their story forward a bit. TL;DR version is the Tau beats the crap out of the Raven Guard, White Scars, Imperial Guard, and some Knight houses (because the Tau are genius and the Imperium are retards), and then the Mechanicus uses some super weapon on the Tau which creates some giant space fire that completely cuts off the Empire from all of their recent gains, kills millions of their own troops, and Space Pope gets assassinated by a Culexus Assassin.

Something about these designs--the way they're painted and and how they look compared to >>14093725 -- makes me think they're from the 80s or early 90s. Man, that gives me a nostalgia rush...

You're pretty much bang on, except GW kept this aesthetic until about 2001 and so. They shifted around 3rd Edition of 40k.

Ultramarines were basically the only army they could get for like a decade so they are too used to it to switch now. GW wouldn't even translate the codexes for the longest time so fans had to translate it into Japanese themselves.

How would the combined forces of NUNS from the Macrossverse fare against the Imperium of Man?
>>
>>14104989

They would crush the Imperium. A single fleet the size of Boldoze's was bigger than how many ships were ever fielded at once in the entirety of 40k.

Not to mention shit like Protodeviln could possibly straight up kill the Chaos Gods with how their powers work.
>>
>>14101982
HAH! A Warlord Titan model is about 1200 euros.
Adjust your price.
>>
>>14104989
The Imperium is incredibly shit tier as far as spacefaring civilizations go, while Macross is at a tier just shy of Star Trek by the time of Delta. It's not even a contest how thoroughly they get wrecked.
>>
>>14105133
The Imperium is kind of like the Zentraedi. They have a bunch of advanced tech made long ago which they no longer know how to make and only vaguely know how to operate and repair, they have a shitload of ships, and their biggest weakness is mental attacks that make them turn on their allies.

If Chaos was powered by idol singers instead of grimdarkness then it'd basically be the same.
