In a world of super soldiers, undead Egyptian space terminators, 1000 year old elven space wizards, 8ft tall mushrooms bred for war and literal daemons, the most fearless and badass warrior is the normal human caught way outside their depth. What makes them special isn’t their strength or powers, it’s their choice to stand defiant against the likes of gods and monsters. They are weaker, and that makes it all the more special when they win.
I immagine the scene being a chaos astartes moking a salamander on his guradsmen allies, and the astartes is heard by everyone on the battlefield, and pointing out that they are in the same war but with the difference being that the astartes are made for this, humans are not, but they still fight together. I just love immagining an angel of the emperor say that he believes in you, every guardsman on that battlefield woult turn into a Primarch on the spot.
As someone with a guard army is nice to see there aren’t only Krieg animations, although it’s weird to me that some people forget that, at *minimum*, men and women are enlisted.
I would kill for a Lamenters series fighting desperately aside the guard to save every last man possible. Only for them to sacrifice themselves to save the lamenters.
