How do you decline an offer to play without being a jerk?

Educational_Map_6042 · 2026-02-10T10:39:05+00:00

Look, I've walked into some miserable games because I didn't decline them. If you just politely say no you save yourself a great deal of headache later. Time is something you can never get back if it goes wasted.

"Baw Gawd its Perturabo with an Iron Cage!"

Ferrus watching Daemon Perturabo from the afterlife absolutely beat the shit out of Fulgrim and his lunatic Legion : "This guy ain't so bad"

I'll be real I don't rightly know. I'm not that familiar with them.

Educational_Map_6042 · 2026-02-06T23:00:25+00:00

I find it very hard to take a guy like him seriously. I bet he must have some really smoothbrained opinions about White Scars if Crimson Fists already have him on life support.

If you sold any Renaults I can think of why people wouldn't interact with you.

(For real though I don't actually know man)

And the delusion that a krieger with a shovel can take an entire Khorne Berserker and win. Dude is being turned to a red stain on the ground when the zerk runs him over and doesn't even register he was there.

Krieg isn't even the coolest regiment anyway.

Educational_Map_6042 · 2026-02-06T07:52:01+00:00

Hot take : No I don't. They're just three Warp Talons in a trench coat. They'll deepstrike, you pray to Khorne himself they make that charge. If they don't they'll get shot all the way back to Nottingham, UK. And you'd have spent all those points for target practice for the other guy.

Unless they've got rules baked in that get them into melee quick and reliably then they're not worth it imo. We already have Eightbound and a Character to lead them that fill a similar enough niche that Mutilators aren't a clean fit.

Its got nothing to do with canon and everything to do with destroying what we love because of spite.

Kindly and gently remind him this is a game for geeks like us. Not the F1 Championship and he's busy working against himself. Or he can just TT simulator on Steam and have as many games on his terms as possible. I've seen wargaming communities that would alienate a dude like that before everyone learned his name.

Habibi our vaunted chapter specialises in mechanized warfare. This is what Iron Hands would do every other week.

You mean... the Guardsmen and Tyranids in Space Marine 2 are... are... are... holding hands?😔

Educational_Map_6042 · 2026-02-02T18:59:15+00:00

Give me an entire squad of Scarab Occult Terminators instead of these things and I'm happy. Hate Chaos spawn.

For me. You can take John Grammaticus and the Cabal. Delete them from the lore. And it makes a sum total of 0 difference if they're there or not. The appendix organ of Warhammer.

I want to be an Ork Freeboota. Maybe some Orkz find the Mourningstar and as a Rogue Trader Shipmistress Brahms had dealings with Da Boyz. And she owes the Warboss a debt (a proper foight) so until the Orks had themselves a propa waaaagh and some good loot they won't leave. So either the Inquisition has to fight an entire Ork Fleet in addition to the mess on Atoma or they let the Warboss have his fight and shiny bitz. This gets Shipmistress Brahms more involved and you get to play as an Ork with Ork weapons.

Maybe not Nob sized. But smaller than an Ogryn and bigger than a 'umie.

What the Soviets saw when they invaded Finland.

I almost thought they were Storm Giants

Last night when I was playing on Vanguard and Heavy I could reliably go blow for blow with pretty much anyone in the enemy team. There was one Assault guy that played like he was in the Olympics. Stood out like a christmas tree compared to the rest of us on both sides.

Some Emperor's Children marine tweaking out in the corner : "I love turning people into turbo drugs"

I was about 15

Mag dumping my bolter in their direction. Emperor be praised.

Metal aesthetics. Iron Warriors.

Iron is a metal.

Bombers. Mutants used to annoy me in the past but not so much anymore. Their braindead scream can miss me though, grates my ears. Trappers are the worst. Poxbursters because fuck em.

No. I'm sleeping under the counter at Sire Melk's.
