I do not get it at all

That is from the fan game chaptermaster.

And somehow the numbers **** up so bad that a single planet in this game has more soldiers on it than atoms in the universe.

I suck at this stuff, can someone try and calculate the gravitational pull of all the guardsmen?
#96 to #87 - anon (01/01/2016) [-]
You see, I haven't played Warhammer and know practically nothing about it, but I'm a bit bored:

On that planet, there were a total of 4,92*10^91 guardsmen. That is a ******* .

I have no clue how much the average guardsman weighs and I didn't bother to read through hundreds of pages on the Warhammer-Wiki, but I read that a lasgun weighs about 2,3 kg. On pretty much all pics of these guys that I found, the guardsmen only wore "normal" clothing, a chestplate with some armour on the shoulders and a helmet.

They were no bulking masses of genetically engineered supersoldiers that eat for breakfast what Mr. Wealthy Pianoman eats for a week either, so I'm just gonna assume that your average guardsman is a pretty normal dude who is in a rather /fit shape and wears a bit of armour, which makes me put their weight at 100kg.

4,92*10^91 guardsmen with a weight of 100kg each gives these guys a total weight of 4,92*10^93 kg.

Some findings suggest that the mass of "S5 0014+81" is overestimated, but if the calculations are correct, it is the most massive black hole known to man. On wikipedia, its weight is listed as that of 40 billion suns, or, in other words, 4*10^10 suns.

The sun has a mass of about 2*10^30 kg, so S5 0014+81 weighs about 8*10^40 kg.

Thus, the guardsmen on Schindelgheist IV weigh as much as 6,15*10^52 "S5 0014+81"s would.

Depending on which source you look at, there are about 10^22 stars in the universe.

Take as many identical universes as there are stars in our universe, give all stars a planet and put 615 million people on every planet and imagine that everyone of these guys weighs as much as the most massive black hole known to man.

THAT is the mass of these guardsmen.

Good job!

OP Complains how Space marines can't land on enemies. The highlighted post shows that the space marines are **** out of luck against the imperial guardsmen, because they have a planet so populated by imperial guardsmen, that there are fewer particles in the known universe than there are guardsmen.

what does that even mean
#79 to #4 - buttlumps (01/01/2016) [-]
HOW MANY GUARDSMEN?!?!?!?
#29 to #4 - anon (01/01/2016) [-]
That is four hundred ninety-one octovigintillion, eight hundred fifty-eight septenvigintillion, eight hundred two sexvigintillion, six hundred ninety-five quinvigintillion, six hundred sixty-five quattuorvigintillion, seven hundred fifty trevigintillion guardsmen. I think they could use some more.

>alright men an enemy ship has appeared from the warp near out planet, all available forces in the time zone of 6 p.m please start firing directly into the sky.

"How much dakka do yah think ey have?"
"All it"
User avatar #31 to #15 - reaperriley ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
Proper answer would be "almost enough"

"At the point in time when bullets can pass through the interdimensional walls. When firepower takes up the entirety and eternity of space and time, all being stuck in a neverending life and death cycle as bullets recover and destroy their bodies in quick succession. No one is able to think about anything but the sheer force of the bullets rapidly flying literally everywhere in the materium turning the warp itself into nothing but a sea of semi-automatic weaponry.. Then there will be enough dakka. Or, at least almost." -The God Emperor of Mankind, If the Emperor had a Text to Speech Device, Episode 12.5[1]

Loved that episode

19 hours alive on the frontline?
That guardsman's no veteran he's a ******* god
User avatar #27 to #23 - silentark (01/01/2016) [-]
Considering that going by the wiki, average guardsman lives for 14 seconds on the battlefield, so someone living that long may as well be a distinguished hero
#50 to #27 - afireinsidebrad (01/01/2016) [-]
and then you play Space Marine where they somehow managed to survive like a ******* week against an Ork horde, was still cool as **** and Mira was badass
#55 to #50 - captainprincess (01/01/2016) [-]
Well

The planet had the touch of chaos about it
I don't wanna implicatify anybody buuut

She was awfully close to the lord space marine
And he is suspected of chais taint

I put 3 and 3 and 3 trogether and came out with 6 what is this
User avatar #73 to #55 - mrshrapnel ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
He was also captain of the second company, which makes you think.
What the hell happend to Cato Sicarius, did he die or did he *shudder* replace papa smurf?
User avatar #76 to #73 - captainprincess (01/01/2016) [-]
idk I dont really follow the actual escapades of the smurfs

but the thing about SM was

Everyone loves to bash on leandross, and they're right he's a total ******* weed and a snitch and an all round wet blanket of a battle brother

But he's not wrong
You DONT get to just fist fight a daemon prince, kill the ****** , and rupture a warp-artifact you've been carrying around and unwittingly delivered to a chaos champion (something something unseen manipulations) who himself notes your connection to the warp, you dont just crack that sumbitc in your bare (armoured) hands, blow up an entire spire, and come out of it with just "ooh my ribs hurt a bit"

****** is tainted alright
wether he knows it or not
User avatar #77 to #76 - mrshrapnel ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
The smurfs are all mary sues, so it kinda is chapter tactics to pull **** like this.
Either that or his a blank (somehow), the game was ******* awesome though.
User avatar #78 to #77 - captainprincess (01/01/2016) [-]
they might be painted as such (thanks Ward)
But they don't have to be

personally I like to think THQ were being rather clever
And maybe even, the little spat at the end was a quiet little jab by someone in the writing staff at Ward's fanatical and obscene love for them

maybe
or maybe Im just optimistic
User avatar #80 to #78 - mrshrapnel ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
THQ rest in peace...
#81 to #80 - captainprincess (01/01/2016) [-]
Atleast their last hurrah was a good one
User avatar #95 to #73 - zacisghandi ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
Neither, Space Marine isn't cannon in the 40k world. so Cato is still captain of the 2nd company. Everything that happened in Space Marine didn't happen in 40k lore
#88 to #73 - malusdark ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
While an official statement made on Relic's official Space Marine forum (now defunct) states that this game takes place in an alternate timeline to avoid questions of the canonical nature of the game's events and characters, it is not irreconcilable if the possibility that the Space Marine game takes place further into the future, after either Cato Sicarius has been slain, reassigned to another Ultramarines Company, or ascended to the position of Chapter Master.

This was the stance on it.
User avatar #89 to #88 - mrshrapnel ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
Darn, i was looking forward to the possibility of having Cato die off.
#91 to #89 - malusdark ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
Well since they don't name the Chapter Master we don't know when it takes place in the timeline which means it could take place later on. I am actually a smurfs man myself but 4th company. 120 men strong and proud.

Surrounded? You mean a target rich environment.

i think that death guard is more focused on her hand
if you know what i mean
User avatar #33 to #11 - mandalorianhunter ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
Do they even eat? I thought they only needed their extreme loyalty to the Imperium.
User avatar #26 to #11 - ashesllashes (01/01/2016) [-]
is it death corps of Krieg? I t recognize the facemask
#38 to #26 - theoddanon (01/01/2016) [-]
Aye. that's the Death Korps, famous for showing absolutely no emotion, they don't even scream when they die.
#82 to #38 - echsa ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
I forgot the word to describe these men, let me look it up real quick
#42 to #26 - yoshtar (01/01/2016) [-]
yep... specifically, Death Korps grenadiers (you can tell because of said skull mask)

if you somehow survive the Death Korps suicidal grenadier units, you're officially qualified to be an officer.
#35 to #26 - anon (01/01/2016) [-]
They are the Death Korps, yes.

Warhammer 40,000 - Imperial Guard Tribute (100,000 views milestone) Ill just leave this here
#62 to #5 - anon (01/01/2016) [-]
So... Its like a soviet + nazi type faction
User avatar #94 to #62 - kexy (01/01/2016) [-]
Well the imperial guard is kind of like ww2 style of an army but with laser, massive numbers of soldiers en massed firing with tanks, the space marines (same faction) are the super elite units. They got power armor their genetically enhanced and have high tech. Cadia is like the us in ww2, there are some factions that are nazi like (Death Korps of Krieg) and russian like (Vostroyan Firstborn) English like (Praetorian Guard). Then there are the catachan jungle fighters ( 1d4chan.org/wiki/Catachan_Jungle_Fighters )
User avatar #72 to #62 - angelious ONLINE (01/01/2016) [-]
well the imperium is actually more of a romans in space type of deal...with the inquisition.
