Pretty standard lefty retardation, if you ask me, i think someone posted something similiar couple months ago, although it might have been in some vidya game related thread, i think it was the Fallout one.
I just come up to say your very presence defiles each thread you participate in. Stop being an illiterate faggot who thinks he's the GREATU MAESTERU in tabletop, Star Wars universe, politics etc.
Think of it as of presidential body doubles.
Besides being pretty sure everyone there routinely talks about how bad the Imperium is only to go "but not all planets", they literally say that the horrific body horror, corruption and negligence are preferable to not being allowed to suck another man's dick.
The combat patrol is a perfect starter kit for a Word Bearers force.
A MoP is near mandatory, Cultists aren't awful for filling troop slots or back objective holders but the new Arks of Omen detachments bypass the troop tax and there isn't much of a need for them beyond that with the lenience provided. Flamer Daemon allies are really strong but are rumored to be getting re-balanced, though that doesn't mean souping is dead and there's bound to be some new hotness post update.
Unless you are too old or a woman
Astartes can live for hundreds or even thousands of years.
That's what the Sororitas is for.
I meant there is an age limit to be recruited in the Space Marines also i imagine the Sororitas are a fraction of all womens in the imperium since the Imperium machine needs so many bodies to keep it working so can't have too many women with vows of chastity
I think it was Leupin that made the comparison that for every 1 custodes (or grey knight, I can't remember) there's 1,000 astartes, 10,000 sororitas, and 100,000 guardsmen. I also don't know if that accounts for the sisters of battle or the entire eclisiarchy. Either way, it seems about 10:1 or less sororitas to space marines.
In one of the Ciaphas Cain novels it's mentioned that Sororitas are not actually required to take any vows of chastity/celibacy.
So 10 millions Sororitas if the figure of a million Space Marines although 100 millions Guardsmen might be a bit lot or subject to change depending on how many are dead in a day versus how many got recruited
I'm not sure, warp travel can take an awful lot of time. If you are already stuck there for a year plus, then might as well strengthen the imperium by having a child with the biggest motherfucker around.
The age limit is more of a guideline than anything. There are recorded instances of people who are too old to draw the attention of Michael Bloomberg joining the astartes, it's just at a far lower success rate. The whole idea is that your body is still developing, and therefore would adapt to the organs better, and the body doesn't really stop developing until the mid-late 20s, just at a lesser degree. The window doesn't close as you get older, it just gets a lot tighter.
Nah, Alpharius is super mega dead by Dorn's Collosal Chainblade.
