2D6 For Ridiculous Space Marine Badassery
2- Out of ammo and surrounded, he once beat an entire horde of chaos cultists to death… With their own shoes.
3- He killed 50 Orks. The Orks kept coming at him faster than he could gut them, so he had to gut them faster!
4- As a scout pilot of a land speeder tempest, he buzzed the tower and caused the Techmarine air traffic controller to spill his coffee.
5- He once drove a bike down a Tyranid Mawloc’s throat to choke it, and then cut his way out of the carcass with a Chainsword.
6- He once crushed the skull of a chaos champion by landing boot first on his head from a jump pack launch.
7- He kicked a demon in the ass so hard that it’s butt cheeks exploded into hundreds of tiny demons whose butts then also exploded. It was really weird.
8- Killed a chaos Helbrute by throwing an overheating plasma weapon into the tortured behemoth’s mouth.
9- He doesn’t always drink beer, but when he does, he prefers bugmans best.
10- Outgunned against the tau and presumed dead by his chapter, he waged a one-man guerilla jungle war against their kroot allies, causing a six-month reign of terror until his chapter found him, and eating nothing but Kroot chicken the whole time.
11- He once ate an entire four-door economy car. With a fork.
12- He knows de way to the eye of terror.
2D6 for ridiculously grimdark thing to say
2- “I will kill you with you my teacup.”
3- “I told Brother Atrius that if I could kill the Carnifex using only his bolt pistol, I’d give him five bucks. He did it, but died in the process, and now he’s in a dreadnought. So did I win the bet, or do I give the 5 bucks to the dreadnought?”
4- “Shoot the mutant, burn the Xenos, and beat the traitor to death with the butt of your gun, for he is undeserving of a bullet.”
5- “WHY YOU RUNNIN?”
6- “The best part about Eldar spirit stones is that you get to kill them again.”
7- “fire suppressor? I don’t even know her. Did I miss the briefing about Sororitas being in this theater?”
8- “I was elected to lead, not to read.”
9- “If I wanted your crappy opinion, I’d go ask a Nurgle demon.”
10- “stand back, I need to practice my Stabbin.”
11- “That drooling heretic got spittle all over my favorite pair of strangling gauntlets.”
12- “I haven’t killed anyone that fun since M38!”
Don’t cheat. Roll the dice and see what you get. Let us know over in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Page.
