The Hammer of the Emperor - Astra Militarum Tribute - 3 Doors Down - Citizen Soldier

[@AximandTheCursed]

First rule of the Guard: Go forward. If you get lost, you go forward. You lose your way? You go forward. You fall away from your group? You go towards the enemy. That's where you'll do the most good, and that's where you'll find your friends.

[@clairestark9024]

Reminds me a guardsman I played during during a dark heresy campaign, a keeper of secrets was trying to tempt us to Chaos. Keeper of secrets-"I can provide you all that you desire." Guardsman-"you cannot" Keeper of secrets-"then tell me what you desire?" Guardsman-"that you and your foul kind will never harm my people again"

[@commissarsersjin8055]

Guardsman, bring your torso here, i wish to pin many, many medals on it.

[@Lazarultos]

That Guardsman has a will greater than the power of any Traitor Marine. The Emperor's light shined upon them on that moment

I have a soft spot for the guard, it is easy to show no fear when you're an 8' tall superhuman who has been conditioned to be beyond fear but a 5'10" dude in some cleanex armor with a flashlight for a weapon standing against a wave of gaunts THAT takes courage.

[@commissarsersjin8055]

[@DantesonofSparda85]

your profile pic is of an Angry Marine (or Imperial Fist can't tell), I expected a rant in all caps

[@crystalalarm3]

It's an Angry Marine and RAGECAPS is for only when angry. ALWAYS ANGRY! ALL THE TIME! But only at the right targets the guards are cool with me.

[@adeptusmechanicus9400]

I agree that the Imperial Guard are brave, but I also need to say that their armour is not like kleenex but instead an armour that can't take direct fire from higher impact weapons but instead lower impact weapons. It is from my understanding that "flak armour" is even used amongst veterans due to its dependable usage in most combat situations and protection. P.S If you want to kill a Imperial Guardsman throw a rock the size of his head instead of shooting him.

we are weak alone but strong together we are normal men who stand against death to fight in the name of the emperor we are asked to do what we do best die standing and try to take out as many enemies as we can until we fall and we are fighting for a better tomorrow we are fighting for friends family the imperium and the emperor what are you fighting for when you join chaos only your own greed and the fear of death you are a coward but the men of the imperium we fight for a righteous cause and the fact we'd rather die on our feet than live on our knees as pawns of chaos there is no braver type of man than that and what have we accomplished we beat back our enemies time and time again we've been able to thrive in life and if we believe this and believe in the emperor then I promise you the imperium will never fall

Even though many Krieg don't work well with many regiments of the Astra Militarum, we still know we must gather under one banner, the banner of the emperor himself, we shall gather, under his banner and march with him, we will march with him through Cadia, we will march withvhim through Armageddon, we will walk with him as we exterminate orks, as we exterminate heretics, as we exterminate Eldar, and Tau, and all Xenos.

Also notice in Guilliman's speech about the new Crusade he mentions heretics,daemons and traitors, but not xenos....I think Eldar can actually be good allies....

[@thebighurt2495]

In the Only War RPG Rulebooks, there's the story of a mixed Attilan Rough Rider/Death Riders of Krieg regiment (Col was Attilan, Major was Krieger) There was some...... disagreement on tactics. This lasted until the Kriegers held the line alone against a Chaos Marine strike force to buy the Attilans time to regroup. The Attilan Colonel wrote in her journal that there was no one she would ever respect more than Kriegers now.

We may die by your sword, but for every one of us that dies ten shall take their place. We may not be as strong as the Emperors space marines. We know fear We know weakness. But as long as we are together we will fight to our death, we will survive. We will hold the line with our backs against the wall. We may be mere humans but within us is the passion of our glorious Imperium the memories of the fallen and the will of our God Emperor. We may be weak alone, but we are never alone.

I must protest. The Hammer of the Emperor is clearly the space marines. The Guard is the anvil upon which whosoever may stand in humanities way shall be broken.

[@40kandgamingtributes88]

Space Marines are not the Hammer. The reason the Imperial Guard, are often referred to as The Hammer of the Emperor is a because of how colossal the military is, it is consisting of many billions of regiments throughout the Imperium of Man, they are called the Hammer because of their numbers smashing into the enemies of man, smashing down onto the Anvil of war. The Space Marines, They are my bulwark. They are not numerous as the guard to be considered the Hammer
