Warhammer 40k character battle!

Post by jus » Fri Dec 02, 2011 6:48 am

experimental forum game - UPDATED

This is not your conventional Character bash mind you! This is in fact a battle for popularity. Don't vote for the character you think will win in a fight, you have to vote for the character from the list below that you think is the coolest/ most pimpin'/badass character.

Heres the catch : Maximum 1 vote every hour. Max 5 votes a day. Name the character you want and say "character +1"
However you can use your vote to deduct a point from a character who is gaining popularity, in which case, "character -1"

EDIT:
Players may now either ADD TWO votes in favor of their character instead of one, (thats 2 plus')

OR

only DEDUCT ONCE and ADD ONCE. Players can not deduct twice.


e.g - A san :Marneus Calgar +2 because he is un grand penis.

e.g - B san : Marneus Calgar -1 nooo I'll never let ultramarines win!
Pedro Cantor +1 because his fists are more crimson.

We tally up the vote in 7 days and find out who the winner is.


Once the list is finalized players may not add characters to the list.
CHARACTER LIST - Round

pending-
1: Gaz Thrakka
2: Lugfht Huron
3: Ahra
4: maugan ra
5: Hive fleet kraken

Can we suggest our own chaps?

If so:

Arhra +1 - cos he's a chaotic immortal Striking Scorpion Phoenix Lord. "Scorpions are boring," he says, and wanders off to start a shrine of real baddasses :D

Interesting idea, but strange choice of characters, as some people wont know who half of them are if they haven't read the relevant Black Library books.

So my vote is for:
Eldrad -1 because he is a vile xeno abomination!
Painted Minis in 2014: 510, in 2015: 300, in 2016 :369, in 2019: 417, in 2020: 450

Oh sorry mate, only the characters listed for now. Hopefully, we will get to your favorites eventually, think it will be more if we start with the "under dogs," and then proceed with a knock out system.

who knows, if this takes off - it might even come to jurgen taking on Sanguinius

in that case:

Fabius Bile +1 as he is a proper bastard, so he is. That's how CSM should be.

Yeah, its a bit hard because I didn't want to start with the really big names. So opted for the semi well known. This might be a good chance for people who don't know anything about these characters to learn some fun facts. Also, the name of the game is opinion so if you want to see your character win try and "persuade" the uninitiated to take sides by telling us about your character (from the list, just for now please). Maybe start a campaign for your character and tell us about the character's heroic/dastardly history and win more votes for his cause. Like how MIJ has just done.

Fantastic start, but "gasp" I would have though you of all people MIJ would have gone with Eldrad! OMGSHOCK

eldar he may be, but he's awfully dull. And dead - that doesnt help his cause much, either...

-1 Fabius Bile as he is a disgusting heretic who thought he was better than the Emperor.
