Kastor Krieg Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 When you don't actually know what the symbol for Librarians is and think they are just cool ram heads that you can put crosses on. When you exactly know what that symbol is. It's Templar for "primary assault target".

Kastor Krieg Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 When you come back to this thread at least once a week, KNOWING it will be already refreshed with a new display of zeal. When you replenish your faith, basking in the fire raised by your Brothers. When you give back and rekindle the furnace over and over again.When this thread, like our Crusade, is eternal.And thus, when you find peace in the knowledge that, eternally, no witch, no heretic, no xeno will be ever safe from our Holy Bolter and Chainsword.
