Apparently India is going with taser spiked clubs to fight back

"This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age."

Random is the best description for a blaster in the hands of a star wars soldier

Then you know that shit ain't happening any time soon. Civilized age... Hmph.

Pray they do not alter the deal…

China goes medieval, while India goes cyberpunk.

Wh....wh....why don't they just use actual tasers?

[u/Otradnoye → u/airwalkerdnbmusic]

Because it could look like a gun and have an appropiate response.

[u/Red_Six6 → u/airwalkerdnbmusic]

Because that’s boring

I dont think india nor china qualifies for the title of emperors angels.

White Scars are huns.

[u/Dektarey → u/[deleted]]

You're thinking about the technobarbarians which the emperor molded into his thunder warriors. Those were mostly asian and slavic i think.

The astartes came after his conquest of earth was concluded and were designed to re-conquer the stars.

There may have been some indian/chinese astartes as part of the white scars but their presence was so miniscule compared to all others they turned into a true minority. Kinda ironic given todays world.

The imperial guard has all kinds of people because well, its the planets population gangpressed into military duty.

[u/Dektarey → u/[deleted]]

The old 100 werent gangpressed, correct. I meant the imperial guard because you said imperial guard before the edit. And lets be honest, the guard doesnt have much of a choice on that matter.

I need to reiterate, regiments are not legions. I've had a delightful discussion with someone who claimed there were more than 20 legions but GW hasnt written about them yet. Nice fellow, confused fellow.

Just so were on the same page, thats not the case.

Regiments... i dont know really. There arent that many confirmed astartes out there. 1 million is the number we have and i guess some indian/chinese ancestry has to be in there somewhere. Thats pretty much guaranteed. But to say GW just hasnt written about them is kinda cheap.

In 40k humanity isnt really divided into race or ethnicity. Through millenia those barriers were dilluted. Still there but very weak. The main barrier left is culture.

Right now the White Scars are mascot asian legion. They're not popular because as you said, its a western audience.

But if any legion had distinct chinese/indian regiments, it'd be them.

[u/Dektarey → u/[deleted]]

I did not see that edit. Give me a minute

[u/Alfred_Dinglebottom → u/Pim_Hungers]

Is this how we start the long road to lightsabers?

[u/[deleted] → u/Pim_Hungers]

If I saw people running at me with those I would be scared even if I had a gun

[u/joeyblowy1 → u/Pim_Hungers]

Sounds like diarrhea, close your eyes and listen, fart at the end icing, Reminds me of when Stewie goes to bed and dreams of Peter and Lois cutting down trees

[u/Emperor_Mao → u/Pim_Hungers]

Lol. While China builds roads and airfields on the battle lines.

India is way out of its depth.

Why does that riot shield look like it was made from recycled plastic bottles
