    (Though a secret die hard Iron Hands fan)
I would be a Iron Hand Sternguard veteran armed with a bolter and bionic hand
In granting those who oppose me death I am giving them the mercy of Nurgle
releasing my enemies from the bonds of fear and oppression , from the shame of betrayal, I preform a kindness I erase contempt, regret, sorrow, insanity all the burdens of life, embrace death and be free or reject Nurgles gift and be destroyed.

Its like when you are going through a country where you know the millitia takes bribes from every foreign car they stop . your expecting it , its "normal". what your not expecting is that they are going to take your car and sell you for body parts.

I would be a Techmarine. Something gratifying about being the only guy in the whole army who can reboot the computer yet still be able to rip the arms off an ork.

Tactical Marine, lowest on the totem pole.

When the snaps start impacting over your head, roller coasters do not compare to the rush given during a firefight with your brothers.

Oh, probably Celestial Lions chapter.

.....and probably with a Heavy Bolter so I can say "let's rock" while shooting when I'm not supposed to shoot.

I would be a Blck templar... A Knight in non shiny armour, killing the enemies of our emperor in the best way a marine can do it, with a chainsword ofcourse ;) oh the joy i would have, i will take my penance for using the word joy later, am currently to busy killing xenos and burning witches, but as soon as im done with that ill do my penance...

one day i will train a neophyte, and later another, and so on... on a later date i will join my marshals household and continue what i have done so far, killing heretics, witches and foul xenos in the name of the emperor, always on the move, slaying what evil i find and most likely die in a glorious fight, my only regret being that i can no longer purge the galaxy of all the nasty little things out there that should have no right to breathe, nor exist! All that asuming i wont get a vision from our beloved emperor telling me to destroy the leaders and champions of our unwelcome "guests", in that case ill take up the finest weapon and armour known to man, and seek out only those worthy, if such a word can be used about the foul things we call our enemies, foes, and slay them til they are uterly dead and gone, spreading panic in the lesser things around them!

NO PITY! NO REMORSE! NO FEAR!

Zeal is it's own excuse!

You can't go wrong with this. I'm sure there's something satisfying about the sound of a traitor's skull cracking under the pressure of a good clubbing to the head.

A Chief Apothecary, stationed in our fortress monastery and virtually never going anywhere where I might get killed.

Alternatively, a Chief Librarian who happens to be an Alpha level psyker (that's Emperor range) hopefully not going mad... although some people might not be able to tell the difference.

I think the common consensus is that the Emps is beyond Alpha. Perhaps even beyond Alpha-plus. But, uh... this isn't the thread for that discussion. :)

I would be the Venerable Librarian Dread attached to the Deathwatch.

With millennia of experience, TL lascannons, and some psyker powers to boot, I would be a great asset to the Ordo Xenos.

Since we are going with personal taste here, I would have a "counts-as" Land Raider Helios modeled as a four-legged dread, very much like the Cybran Brick from Supreme Commander.

I'd be a Dark Angel, Captain of the third company. Hell, I made a model for myself and everything.

And, to be obnoxious and unfluffy, like my friend, I'd have an adeptas sororitas as a girlfriend, and be the best swordsman etc.

Dark Angels aren't bad. We are just misunderstood, like sharks... Or maybe penguins, penguins are misunderstood, right ?



Check out my Dark Angels story, it's good honest.

Some top tier level guard member, like wolf guard, honor guard, paladin, etc. The lord's right hand, his chosen man. That's the role I often find myself in in my actual life, and it suits me pretty well. A naysmith, a trusted sword-arm, and furious loyalty. The guy who the captain calls when it absolutely has to be done/killed to death/captured/killed to death again, ya feel me? That'd be my role.

Now, if I get to be really specific... one of Tu'Shan's Firedrakes. Not in any command role, but close to the chapter leadership. Think the Atramentar from ADB's Night Lords. But loyalists. And green. Relic blade and some form of combi weapon.

I would prefer to be an Inquisitorial analyst, doing detective work and field analysis to identify the problems, figure out what's going on, then hit the shiney red "call Space Marines" button as prelude to the even shinier "exterminatus" button :lol:

That being said, I do better with behind the scenes planning or logistics, more of a general's command tent level thing, which as a rule is kind of anti-Space Marine style of "lead from the front". So I would put myself as someone in charge of some of the reserve companies command staff, operating logistics vehicles and cycling replacement personnel, getting the material going where it needs to go so the Chapter can kick butt ;)
