Funny / When In Doubt, Blame the Eldar

• ANY of the extras made for the Imperial Guardsman's Uplifting Primer.
  • The MEC entry states that the MEC has a range shorter than a Lasgun^note true, will easily collapse on uneven terrain^note True at first, but Black quickly fixed that problem, claims that it can be easily impaled with a bayonet^note not true, and is too weak to hurt you with a punch^note it can kill Kroot with one punch. However, it has trouble actually ''hitting'' people in the first place, due to slow reflexes.
  • The Seeker entry states that its grip can be broken easily by a normal guardsman^note it can lift Space Marines, goes down in one hit from a lasgun^note it has a fairly powerful energy shield, that you can easily see through it's cloaking^note said cloaking is very effective, and flak-armor will block it's plasma shots^note it was designed to fight Space Marines.
    • They also leave out that its tentacles have tools that let it cut through POWER ARMOR, though this is probably intentional, as there isn't really a way to word these tools in a non-threatening manner.
    • And how did they find this out? Black used the seekers to strip several Sisters of Battle of their weapons and armor.
• Orkanis and Sekhareth form an odd pair of Those Two Guys, and are genuinely somewhat friendly with one another. Even better is their complaining, which sounds a lot like two older people complaining about "The kids these days."
• Taldeer's reaction to meeting Sekhareth: Black notes that he would relish the sight of her being well and truly stunned until the end of his days.
  • Larissa's reaction as well: after overcoming her initial shock, she offers him tea. Sekhareth declines, since he can't actually drink it. The minute he leaves, Larissa has a nervous breakdown.
  • Apparently, Black took pictures of it, too.
• During the trip to Kaurava, the characters play cards, including the precognitive and telepathic Eldar. Among other things, Black notes that having a perfect poker face (due to being a robot) doesn't help when playing against Eldar, while Kirnov's "perfect anti-telepath defense" apparently involves exploiting Dirty Mind-Reading.
• Near the end of Chapter 28, Black is explaining the Chaos Gods to Thomas. Naturally, this comes up when Slaanesh is discussed:

  Black: Finally, Slaanesh is the god of pain and pleasure, formed from... things that I'll explain when you're older.
  Thomas: It's about the "murderfucking" thing, isn't it?
  Black: When you're older!
