Orks are literally soccer hooligans in space. How can you not appreciate that?
I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
And Disney World is nowhere in sight.

I'll bet you dollars to doughnuts Terra houses a giant Skaven brood that is steady running shit.
If by skaven you mean "Bureaucrats" then yes.
(Because bureaucrats are like rats, see.)

Death to all Dwarfs, Space Dwarfs, Squats and any other deriative of stumpy little rock men
I thought this was a neat take on the concept actually:
Top left: Demiurg Golem. Top Right:Demiurg face. Middle: Demiurg in full armor. Bottom: Demiurg Ion Mining Laser
The Demiurg and the Crystal Plauge:
The Crystal Plauge originated in the far east fringe of the Galaxy. Uncovered by Demiurg miners in a large asteroid belt. Crystals on the asteroids were being researched in advancing Demiurg ion technology. The large green crystals emanated potent radiation; the radiation from the peculiar crystal, combined with the Demiurgs rock like skin created a deadly cancer that caused Demiurg skin to grow at an accelerated rate until there was little left but animate rock. Tau trade with the Demiurg depleted rapidly and the Tau were quick to investigate. A revered earth caste scientist On'tyra'shav discovered a way to reduce the growth enough that Demiurg inflicted with the disease were able to live out most of their lives before turning into thoughtless animated rock. On'tyra'shav was also able to create a vacine which prevented the plague from spreading to newer generations of Demiurg. The Demiurg eternally grateful to the Tau increased their dedication to the 'Greater Good' and offered up infected miners to the cause.
Demiurg Battle Miner:
The Demiurg battle miner plays an effective role in Tau battles as a defense close combat soldier. The Demiurgs rock like skin and advanced armor can take huge amounts of damage before the soldier falls. Often positioned at the front of Tau Fire Warrior squads, Demiurg battle miners effectively tie up assaulting soldiers, their short stature allowing for Tau fire warriors to shoot over their head and fell the tall enemies. When a Demiurg finally succumbs to his curse, he is transformed into animate rock. Though whatever was left of his previous life and personality is gone, Drones can be integrated into the living rubble, turning it into a dangerous battering ram!
Demiurg ion mining laser
Only effective at close range, the laser is built to slice through several feet of rock in seconds. Heavy and cumbersome, the laser poses little threat to groups of infantry, but is deadly to any vehicle that dare consider charging the Demiurgs allies. the Fire Warriors.
The Concept
I based my design of warhammer dwarfs, and the concept art of Demiurg found floating round the internet. The armor is a mixture of Terran Marine, Robocop, 80's anime tech, and car parts. Dwarfs to me look like short bikers, so I wanted a hot rod theme to their armor. I wanted it to look heavy, but not in the way that would make it look like short space marine armor, or ork armor. Dwarfs with their large beards resemble vikings or Scottish highlanders. As a result, I indulged myself in giving him an armored kilt. The crystal idea came to me as I was drawing his mutton chops, and noticed the rock like skin they had. I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be cool if they had crystal beards?" and so the idea evolved into the Crystal Plauge.
Textbook World Eaters invasion that ended in the fracturing of the World Eaters legion, because a company of Grey Knights (and I think a Grand Master? There's like 3 at any time) banished Angron for a few millenium

Skalathrax already meant the legion was fractured
But the really cool thing about that was just the sheer carnage of the invasion. It was a scrap of epic proportions.

not the hive "fleets" that came so far, no
those are the scouts
Skaven were my first army way back in 6th grade
My waves upon waves of attacks framed by poison gases, warp lighting, and major character assasination was a sight
After I won five games in a row the other kids stopped playing against me though
Still, gutterrunners fo life
what we should get back are space dwarves
That would be these guys.

We don't talk about squats.

but seriously
space

I thought this was a neat take on the concept actually:
Not a bad look, really
They are adorable
Also, I just found out about the Space Phantoms
New second favorite chapter
A good second is the Badab War.
I'm sorry man
I love you
But I hate squats more
First war for Armageddon is the best
But yeah Badab is fucking awesome. I love that forge world book
I like the section in the codex about Lord Solar Mecharius
I really want to play 40k
Fuck yeah, Salamanders!
But first war is still best
I have some cygnar dudes.
It's a pretty excellent game.
I like all the different combos you can do with all the figures.
butt angron
I actually think it fits pretty well too
I think there were a few, but I have no idea if they were among the upper ranks of the Black Library books (enjoyable) or the lower (utter trash)
With added concentration camps for the winners
It's only really noticeable cause it marked the first loyal Marine chapter to openly tell the Inquisition to go fuck itself.
EDIT: Angron was only banished for 100 years I think
Had this thing drafted for too long not to post.
I'm hoping the game turns out to have some cool mechanics for ordering troops so it's kinda an action/strategy thing.
Thinking like, 99 knights? Or whatever that dynasty warriors knockoff was with the soldiers you give commands to.
