[You know what Mayfield has been missing out on?

CHAINSWORDS

These machines you may know as 'sounder pounder tree cutterdowners' are somehow swords and your two favorite Warhammer 40k heroes are dueling with them.

None of the smoke associated with chainsaws is to be seen but the sound and the whirring of the blades can't be missed. Not to mention the sparks caused by the clash of blades.

Yes, they're clashing.

Standing a good foot and a half shorter than Garviel, Cain is somehow managing to not get a chainsword blade stuck in his head. He can't fight the Space Marine strength on strength but his ability to deflect the blade must either be instinct or awesome skill. Either way, they still pause every so often because fighting a frakking Astartes is like hitting your head on a brick wall.

Feel free to gawk, think they're insane, or that their weapons can't be wieldy due to physics but they still handle them like they're Jedi Masters.

At the park, of course.

Garviel and Cain will be tagging the threads separately and threadjacking between the two may happen.]

'cause waving that thing around with out chopping off a limb is a useful skill? [He's just teasing you now Cain]

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Learning how to pilot a Titan is probably a useful skill too but I'm never going to do it because I'll never pilot a Titan.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

What's a Titan? Is that type of mech?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[Cain, your world just got cooler]

Holy shit that's awesome...

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

I think they're horrifying and I hope I'm never on a planet that needs one for defense.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Horrifying? Why?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

If there's a Titan around, the enemy is doing a full scale invasion with probably a billion or so soldiers.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Oh. [Ken is trying to think about it that way.] Ok, well, I guess that's a valid reason to not like them.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

I've been on the wrong end of an Ork Titan before. Thankfully, it got a bit messed up by another enemy before reaching our lines.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

So what do Titans look like anyways? Do they walk? Roll?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

They all walk but they look different depending on who made them.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I guess that makes sense. I'm glad we don't really have to worry about billion person invasions here.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

You say that now but if orks start pouring out of that post office...

...you know what, I better tell you the secret to beating them.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

...SHH! Don't give them ideas!

And spill!

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

They're these big, green creatures that are strong but dumb. So if you keep your head on straight, they're easy to beat one on one. But they have this psyker field thing going on that makes them stronger depending on how many more are nearby. If you catch them group together, try to separate them.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

So, they kinda live the 'together they stand, divided they fall' kinda thing?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

That's giving to much credit. I'm being pretty literally when I say they get smarter and stronger when bunched up. Weirdest damned thing.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Wow...That sounds like the reverse of those mobs of girls we had back at the shop.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

That's generally how girls are.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Hah, guys too. The bigger the group, the stupider they get, but the more power they can wield.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

That's why they make lasguns practically unbreakable.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

...lasguns? Like Laser guns? [He's trying to figure out the naming scheme here.]

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Well I guess if you're given them to big buff dudes, 'specially like Garvi, you'd want the weapons to be pretty hardy.
