Downtime in the Imperial Guard

any time spent not fighting or preparing to fight the enemies of the empire is pure, unbriddled, abject and abolute treason. drill or die.

Idleness begets Heresy !!!

We dig trenches, build fortifications, then dig more trenches.

Then we perform internal drills and inspections.

The official ones are too lax and overlook many common and fundamental mistakes that were deemed impractical or too strict to punish soldiers for.

But Sir Commissar, playing football is a good exercise for emergency extraction of vital information packets and holy relics!

Also, arm wrestling build power and motivates the guardsmen to build muscle, improving their CQC capabilities!

Card games make them bold and daring, making their spirit go all out even against overwhelming odds!

What I'm getting to Sir Commissar, is that I need my amasec back. It numbs the pain from the stump that used to host my leg without wasting our medicinal supplies.

Ever seen the Mordian 17th Field Artillery's Scrumball team in action?

... yeah there's a reason we're not allowed in inter-reg tournies anymore...

Just like in real life - drinking, banging any member of the opposite sex who's down for it, and getting into trouble.

A considerable amount of doctrinal and spiritual supervision and guidance.
The imperium is a theocracy after all, and soldiers especially have to be regulated in their religious duties.
No american pasttimes as well, because warhammer is british.
fraternisation to various degrees, carousing, self-indulgences of the chemical variant, sanctioned and otherwise.

Nah, the Warhawks brought Football to everyone else.

They obsessively pray to the Emperor, conduct drills, and repeatedly make sure all of their equipment is in order always.

In summary, they're all autists.

Once downtime hits?
Usually, going about duties or pulling overtime like usual.
Unless there are foreigners, then they usually have a habit of trying to 'socialize' us.

We do play mean space soccer though.

Grabbed the wrong image.

The 40k universe and the IG armies so numerous and varied that they probably have both "Strict work til you die on off duty" units along with your "drink and fraternize" units and everything in between tbqh fampai.

Don't you mean regicide?

So like do you think there are imperial sanctioned stores and rec rooms on those large troop transports, garrison fortresses or r&r worlds?

I cant stop thinking theres an area where a smelly disabled ig veteran running the local store tries to get you to use your credits to buy some shitty squat beer or imperial sanctioned pornography.

The half dead all retarded psyker can make collect calls to your home world and check your spirit mail.

Meanwhile the commissar is coming down hard on the suspected participants of last week's animal fighting ring.
