Two words. Castle Crashers.

Call in your artillery strikes if you will, send forth your armies of uncountable soldiers. I have four knights with magic, here to kick ass and chew bubblegum. And they don't have any mouths.

Well I meant in 40k they are arguably the best troops. Though the Star Shiptroopers Mobile infantry are defiantly amongst the best fictional troops out there, that and they were the inspiration for the Space Marines.
I've got money says the SM can take the troopers any day.

We never responded to castle crashers because it was not worth our time. The inquisition would hunt those 4 mutants down and purge them with fire and litanies of hate. Magic? What part of Warp do you not understand?

It's really quite simple. Any opposition presented is systematically proven to be inferior by their equivalent. I'm just going to go ahead and kill the discussion right here and now.



Fear the Emperor.
Fear his might.
Fear his walking God-Machines.
Fear this, the Warhound, fury of his legions..
Fear the Reaver, twice it's size, whos guns sing death every second.
Fear the Warlord, twice a Reaver, who can crush armies with guns linked to a chained star.
Fear The Imperator, A Walking Fortress Upon Which Ten Thousand Men Sing Destruction, Whose Guns Make Mountains Fall

When The Imperium Comes For You, You Will Be Taught Fear. Then Humility. Then Death.

For The Emperor

In 40K, they're called terminators.

We have it all, baby.
Termies don't have mini nukes, just chain guns, normal missiles and the like. They're still pretty awesome if used properly.

Ooh.
Someone needs to bring to the WH40k maker's attention a ceramic called Zirconium Oxide.
It's fucking awesome.
It's stronger, harder to break, harder to melt, and retains a sharper edge than Steel.
I really want one as a sword.
XD

Well, yes and no. Since this is all fiction, I can just randomly create more than even more epic and more ridiculously overpowered. And what about the marines in the book version of Starship Troopers? In that book, the suits are essentially over-sized gorillas with mini-nukes and chain guns attached.
Is that the stuff the Japanese have started making kitchen cutlery with?

Well I meant in 40k they are arguably the best troops. Though the Star Shiptroopers Mobile infantry are defiantly amongst the best fictional troops out there, that and they were the inspiration for the Space Marines.
Yes. Yes it is.
Zirconium Oxide is actually a ceramic- yet it is more awesome than a lot or metals.

And to Ultrajoe- I've always found walkers of that size to be rather ridiculous. It's so huge it could easily miss a man and a backpack filled with high explosives, Then he can just attach it to the leg on a timer and boom!
So many resources turned useless.
It doesn't even appear to have satisfactory anti-infantry weaponry.
One, two guys and a bomb.
Or, just to continue the argument, a lightsaber.

I'm afraid Ninjablue, that your arguments have already been dealt with. Given that Titans are void-shielded, there is no possibilty of an attack until the shields are taken down. Secondly, the supporting troops of that titan are there to disable it. Fourthly, it has absurd armour. And for anti-infantry? It appears to be mounting a Vulcan Mega-bolter. It has anti-infantry.


Your arguments have been dismissed by the might of the Ommnisah.

OK then. Castle Crashers is a bust, ey? I never expected that!
Castle Crashers was more of a joke than a serious contender.
Alright then, universes of horrifying power... Hmm... I think UJ's hilariously overpowered death machines have me beat.

The Swiss Guard conquer all. End of the game.
If you're talking about the Pax Swiss Guard from the Hyperionverse, that's a distinct possibility.

Individually they would be a credible threat to anything in 40k short of a C'Tan or chaos god in the not-flesh, given that they are able to engage equiv-tech starships from the ground and win, can survive anything up to and including kiloton level weapons (so nothing short of a Volcano Cannon is going to dent them), and engage man sized targets at ranges of hundreds of kilometres.

They are the scariest large scale ground forces ever written. (There are factions with higher capabilities than the Pax, but they tend not to go in for ground combat on any large scale. If someone like the Culture or the Time Lords decide they want rid of you, they're far more insidious than mere ground armies. Or they blow up your star system.)

Each leg bristles with more gun emplacements than you can count.

These things were designed with kicking the shit out of armies in mind.

You may have heard of our ground infantry.



And you have certainly heard of our armored support.



We like to call this a baneblade. AKA: 11 barrels of blazing hell AKA: Rolling Fortress AKA: Super heavy tank

Dont get me started on a Leman Russ tank company, a Rhino Phalanx or the might of Land Raiders and Predators. Dont make me point to the Artillery-cities, the Assassinorium, the Ogrins and the ratlings, the 100's of 1000's of guard and the Skitarii legions.

Do not make me draw your eye to the PDF, the Inquisition, The Grey Knights! the Adeptus Custodes!

Do Not Make Me List The Ways The Imperium Could Crush You Utterly. We Could Be Here All Day

And even if by some miracle you beat the Imperium of man, we'd just move to the next race of 40K. And i'd be picking Nids.

Ultrajoe, I see your Imperium and raise you the Daleks.

That is a fight I would like to see.

Very well. I raise you twelve Shadowsword companys. That's 36 tanks built for the sole purpose of nuking giant robots from long range. And 6 Stormblades (short-ranged titankillers) and 12 Baneblades.

Daleks lack sufficient close-combat capabilities to take on Astartes; now, if you mounted chainsaws on them...
