The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Forty One Up

The inversion would be appropriate.

Someone should smuggle the angels a copy of 'A Very Scary Solstice'...

JBG,
I'm in the shoot him on sight, then shoot him again and again, then again just to make sure. Before of course shooting him a few more times.

Have you seen that photo of the tripod mounted triple rifle calibre miniguns?



After that, lend Stuart and Shep et al some bombers and nuclear devices with the explicit instructions that they are to enjoy themselves!

What military use does that thing even have, beyond "Oh look, a horde of Zulu's. Let's kill them all!"

I do not think the military has any of them; they are used by some exhibitors to wind up the attendees at gun shows and military equipment expositions.

Most of the triple miniguns floating around are mere mockups, though at least one is real. Totally pointless for any military purpose. An automatic grenade launcher would be much more effective at killing people in the open at long range, and a single minigun is already overkill at short range. Galting guns in general only make sense when firing from or at aircraft, as you need volume of fire to make up for the high speeds involved. But even in those roles other solutions exist.

Whenever I saw them I always thought that they were some kind of point defence weapon for ships. Thats the only thing that I can think of that would want that amount of fire

A regular gatling gun already puts out practically a laser beam of steel/tungeston/depleted uranium/whatever that can cut inhalf anything that flies. Gatling guns are what people turn to when they want MORE DAKKA. Adding more just wastes ammunition.

[Blayne]

WE NEED MOAR DAKKA BOYZ!



Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!

I want that gun hooked up to my car. Or a airsoft version.

[Land Phish]

How strong are the Hell-Orcs? If possible we need to recruit them into the army, give each one of them a GAU-8 Avenger and have them on the front lines as we invade Heaven screaming "MORE DAKKA!"

They would most likely turn on us after they realize that they're literally holding the big guns now but it would be SO COOL.

I imagine it won't be long before someone (maybe Caesar, maybe the French) starts fielding orc conscripts. I think I said it earlier, but I think that orcs could definitely find a place in Hollywood, if they can survive on earth. I'm sure someone is looking for a muscular orc to play the part of Thrall in a World of Warcraft movie.

The picture I was thinking of was a "military motivator" picture but that one is better.

Of course it is over the top and impracticable on any number of fronts. But it was more of "in-your-face" imagery to make the point!

Blayne - 40K Space Orks would go for this. I spent enough time battling them with tooled up Space Wolves.

One of these then?

For those of you who are not aware, this picture pretty much sums up the Ork mindset.

More Dakka!

[Heatherine]

Is Stuart ok? I haven't seen him post in here in a long time, not even to answer questions or anything...

[Darth Yan]

i pmed him a month ago. He said he had lost enthusiasm, but that he might come back.

[Blayne]

Oh no! I hope hes alright, this is a very good story and I hope he continues writing it.

[Mayabird]

You know, it's true. This thread has really more than run its course. I'd like to be an easygoing person, but 145 pages is plenty. We'll start another when Stuart feels like writing another chapter. And so, locky lock.

I will leave the criticism thread open for now if anyone has anything of importance they really want to say within the next week or so, but I'll be watching it closely. If any spam migrates there, I will crush it like my hometown the moment I get any power lock it too.
