Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I don't trust ANYONE who says they are a fan of Warhammer 40K unless they are a fan of a Xeno faction.
Yes, Inquisitor, this heretic above me.
You're not a heretic if you're a xeno, heretic.
Love me orks. Love the waaaaagh. Love stompin around smacking grots.
Space clowns baybeeeeee
(I kinda like the grey knights too, but I am firmly in the camp of "every 40k faction except maybe the tau is evil and that's how it should be")
Add the Kin to that. They are callously pragmatic to the end, but I wouldn't call them outright evil.
League of Voltan are the good guys now, no notes (they haven't had enough edgy lore drops)
Honestly, I would only trust Ork and maybe Tau players. Everyone else needs questioning.
I hear all that, but counter-argument: Orks are funny.
The necrons are just sleepy bois what got woken up too early.
What is wrong with necrons?
Tyranids?
Are there any Tyranid players left? GW certainly doesn't act like it
:( agreed. I play Tyranid/gene stealer cults.
OK, those too.
Votann? I just want to Rock and Stone brother.
Not deep enough in the lore to know what this is. Is it the old "Squats"?
Squats is Imperium hate speech be better
The species is called the Kin. Basically squats with a new paintjob who live in the galactic core. The Votann are both their first ancestors that left pre-Imerial Earth, and the current Ancestor Core computers that they worship as deities. They are cloned with beneficial stable mutations, resistant to chaos (minimal warp presence), and when they die, they get tossed into the blender where their experience is uploaded into an ancestor core and their biomass is repurposed. They frequently trade with other cultures, and avoid open combat if it would be deemed wasteful.
my ex liked the tau and he's pretty based, so i'll agree to that
I play CSM, does that count?
One of the good ones for sure
I like Dark Eldar because of their unique armor style
