They did one of these on Portent awhile ago...but this one is far far better.
I'm going to have to do some digging for a few of these...back in awhile!

Hi! Dang, I only know one, reaver variants, Hun and goth. The rest are too new for me to know. To address the balance and give some real OLD trivia, here's some more questions: 1. What are "psych-out" grenades made of? 2. The true origins of the Emperor? 3. First chaos god to be born? 4. Name of the largest battle during the horus heresy? 5. Name of the frigate that escaped with loyalists to warn the emperor of horus's treason? 6. What was the name of the elders where Horus was possessed? Oh I remembered the adjutant's name is Bejaind.

I know the answers to some of these questions and where to find the answers to most of the others, but I'm too indifferent to GW to do so. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

No problem Centurion, I'm so "old school" it's rumored I knew the Emperor when he was just a SGT !!!  I thought the same thing Maksim, I remember seeing something about most of these questions, but I'm too busy (read = lazy !) to do the research !

Actually I quite like the fluff and doing stuff like this. Its GW the Company and its policies I'm indifferent to, but I like the background and (most) of its development. If I didnt I'd be using Epic minis to play Dirtside or something similar. Just my Aus$0.02 worth... |
