thinking about joining the marines
(07 Dec 2008)
I want to hear an opinion from 3 differant point of views. 1 from people who want to go 2 from people who went and liked it and 3 people who went and hate it and why? I want to go.

Black Reach says: Buy Space Marines!
(15 Nov 2008)
So I was looking at the contents of the Black Reach box, wondering to myself how 2 mobs of 10 boys, 3 deff koptas, 5 random douchebag nobz, and a warboss with a power klaw were supposed to stand up to a dreadnought, five terminators, a tac squad and a space marine commander. Leafing through the Black Reach supplemental book, I realized that they're not.
In the "scenario" (I use the word loosely) given, the space marines go first. A couple pages beyond that, and it breaks down the points cost for...

Marines
(22 Nov 2008)
Hey guys,
I don't mean to offend anyone or servicemember but I have a friend who keeps thinking that the Marines are the be all end all and the Air Force is just a bunch of pansies who are too afraid to get shot. What is the opinion of the Marines on this matter. I know there is Corp pride and all but I think that if it weren't for the Air Force alot of Marines would be dead.
Sorry again if this offends anyone.
P.S. if any of you have served or are in the Marines please feel free to post you opi...
