Pudelhund Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 When you scoff at the forum name of "The Bolter & Chainsword" and hop on down to our favorite subforum that should be called "The Lasgun". Both of them sound like gastropubs really.

WarriorFish Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 We call it the barracks Pudel. It's currently that nice shade of green and must be kept clean at all times. Lights out at 10, there's a long march in the morning...

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 YAY RUCK MARCHING! My favorite . You know you're a guardsman when your battle rattle and ruck weigh more than you do...

Captain Baranov Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 You know you are a guardsman when you wonder if your lasgun is older than the hive you were born in... Then again, that might just be a worry for Vostroyans.

Pudelhund Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Random question, but is the word "lasgun" trademarked by GW? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288137-you-know-youre-an-imperial-guardsman-when/page/13/#findComment-4070683 Share on other sites More sharing options...

morroccomole Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 You know you're a guardsman when... You never volunteer for ...except maybe PDF duty.

WarriorFish Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Which is a good way to make the commissariat take both Steve and you as volunteers ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288137-you-know-youre-an-imperial-guardsman-when/page/13/#findComment-4072604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Never be first, never be last, and never volunteer for anything. If the enemy is in range, so are you. The easy way is always mined. Make it too hard for the enemy to get in, and you can't get out. If the attack is going well, you're walking into an ambush...

Jolemai Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Totally had my first Catachan moment yesterday. New strimmer, out in the garden, shirt off (because manly), hacking away at the footlong grass (yes I know, but it's new and we wanted it to "take"). So there I am, full on two-handed pose sweeping from left to right, imagining I'm holding a heavy flamer/chainsaw and going through the undergrowth. Glorious.

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 When you go to an Airsoft game, and the type is a hill assault, you're the attacker, and the only words that come to mind are "FORWARDS!

librisrouge Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Wow, been a long time. I clearly need to play more so I have more to add. "...when the Ravenwing player starts bragging and you neglect to inform him that basilisk platforms can accept the Fire on my Command order." "...when the opponent starts talking about how hard their spartan will be to kill and you calmly place two manticores on the table, unconcerned." "...when everybody loses it over the new Tau deathstarsupersuitstm and you just realize that that'll mean painting a couple hundred more men."

Vulpine Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 When you and millions of others fight constantly to keep a grip and a footing on a planet for years and years of brutal war. And just when you about to do that last push. Putting the final nail in the enamys coffin! Following the thousands and thousands of your fellow kinsmen into no mans land... To almost certain death! And because fifty to one hundreds power armour clad steroid boosted marines join you... They take the glory... Not you!.. That's when you know your in the guard!
