So I remember a thread back that speculates how it'd be like if the Imperium of Man discovered Earth, as in OUR Earth. And surprisingly there were many people including alot of 40K nerds who admit that the Imperium would utterly fail to conquer or even destroy our Earth.
All because we the people of this Earth have much better technology, better sciences, better logical reasoning, positive emotions, postive attitutdes, and the very though of Hope, hope for a brighter and better day and future. And also comapred to the people of the Imperium in 40K, we the people of Earth are not grimdark/grimderp 90's-era stupid, and again unlike alot of people in 40K who're always pessimistically stupid. We have the power of postive thinking, optimism and hope.
And I guess I'd dare say that our very idea and concept of hope and positive and logical thinking and commons sense in general, would prevent us from falling into the dumb influences of Chaos/ Therefore we would not degrade into some dark and edgy work of fiction that practically came from the 90's. (Or mid to late 80's)
So shall we have a thread for how we the people of this Earth are much better and frankly superior to the 40K Imperium? And basically post and talk about how alot of 1st world and western military powers would pretty much beat space marines in the battlefield.
And also how our logical and postive thinking and hope trumps whatever chaos influence urges us to do dumb things.

Thats fucking retarded and you should feel bad about being this retarded

The imperium can throw more bodies than the entirety of earths current population without so much as breaking a sweat or complaining about the inhumanity of it.
To quote Stalin "quantity is a quality all of its own"

Just really thought I could possibly start a thread to engage some form intelligent disscussion really. Then again this is 4chan, and in the end I'll just leave the fate of this thread on how y'all would bring this.

Unintelligent premises don't get intelligent discussion.

>an interstellar empire that can destroy planets and face inhumanly dangerous Xenia and superhumans can't beat a shithole that learnt to split the atom less than a hundred years okay

>>55170406
A noble goal, truly.
>>
>>55170406
A noble goal but you really bought it on yourself with the stupidity of thinking modern earth could defeat even a small interstellar empire in the 40k setting
>>
Of course Earth would beat any faction of 40k, after allIt's only in our imaginations.

Just because we're a bit better at book learnin doesn't make us better equipped

The whole fecking point of 40k (besides satire and dark comedy) is a deconstruction of this.
If you're a Guardian reader who desperately feels the urge to rub one out to some soft scifi, I suggest Iain M Bank's famous Culture series.

This is stupid.
Apart from the sheer quantity of soldiers that would overrun us, the Imperium could just make use of orbital bombardments until we capitulate.
Yes of course, we could target their ships with ICBMs, but come on.

Why not? It took Chaos, a force with a literally infinite army of demons, 10,000 years and a bunch of plot macguffians to get rid of a planet that was to feet from their from door.
40k factions are really bad at war, is what I am saying.

It doesn't matter when they can fuck us from orbit, is what we're saying
>>
>>55170330
I mean sure, on a small scale I bet a 50-strong army of modern soldiers could beat a 50-strong army of guardsmen with relative ease.
BUT realistically the guardsmen would greatly outnumber us, and would have near-infinite reinforcements as long as they control orbit. Meanwhile we'd be forced to fight defensive battles on their terms, and any collateral damage would hurt our war effort.
And that's assuming they don't just decide to orbitally bombard us.

>>55170330
That's dumb.
I liked the idea that we were a planet of blanks better.
