oh, lets see, *cracks knuckles* we have these, only even more awsome and badass, they are called Necrons, and Theyll Be Back. Necs are a pain in the ass, but weve handled them thus far, Terminators would be weak and puny by comparison. a guy in powered armour, a generically modified super solider, four freaks, two mutants, and a bunch of no-bodies that no one care about, against a whole army of fearless, genetically modified supersoliders in powered armour, some of which specialize in hunting down super powered mutants and freaks, most of which could put up alot more of a fight than the F4 and any given xman or spider man, not to mention pursue said hunting with a level of fanaticism that most fanatics would consider insane. i do believe this would be handled, if anything, like minimal difficulty. single companies of SMs have taken down bigger mechanical fries, in the middle of pitched battles. a whole chapter with a single target would have minimal problems. thats all i have to say about that. They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me. Like clay I shall mould them, and in the furnace of war forge them. They will be of iron will and steely muscle. In great armour shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that no foe can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear! ~The Emperor of Man
Hahaha, nice write up Aral. And btw I am totally with yea. I play chaos or Space Marines. No other army does it for me. Waiting for the Demonhunters book to be rewritten soon.
lol, you had to know someone would bring up necrons when you showed terminators, that whole race is practically a shout-out to the terminator movies
The end of second ed saw the first release of Necrons. They were nothing more than skele-robots and a few bug-like things (like a fly compared to the mite swarm you get now). They were taken from the terminators quite obviously and have grown to be something altogether more deadly.
now i can see why SM would be a controversy topic on whether they should be playable in the MMO I can already see some crazy balancing issues.
I feel like I'm gonna be the N64 kid when I see this trailer "ITS WARHAMMER 40KKKKK!!!!!!! TITANS!!!!!"
no but watch this site for close updates http://www.warhammer40konline.net/ they'll be posting all war40k related game releases during E3.
Technically I think that thread is in the proper place. Has G4 mentioned anything about either Space Marine or the MMO?
http://www.gameslave.co.uk/newscomm...00-Dark-Millenium-Online-Screenshots--Trailer OMG OMG OMG THE TRAILER!! THIS GAME IS GONNA BE EPIC!!!!!!!!!! TITANS, CHOPPAS and SPEEDERS OH MY!!!!! * jumps out the window*
Sweet! Looks like the Marines are Black Templars and the Chaos Marines will be World Eaters. Also noted cultists, Imperial Guard and, of course, Orks.
