40k is a silly place (insert Monty Python here).
As for the steelheads, I get that that is likely what happened, I just don't think the logic tracks.

40k is a silly place (insert Monty Python here). 40K is... large, and like anything large that has had a lot of people working on it over a very long time, it ends up all over the place. I think some people take all the darkness seriously while others enjoy it as over-the-top silliness. I have enjoyed some of the fiction for being, well, seriously far-out gothic sci-fi, some I haven't. One of my favourite books had a Titan with a giant gattling gun that fired Deamons; I just loved how utterly insanely over-the-top it was. Meanwhile the Ciaphas Cain books crack me up with their self-aware parody. Ah-hem. Back to the silly pictures: Untitled-1.jpg (171.2 KB)

Ah-hem. Back to the silly pictures: Now I want one of the many merc couples to get an epic with that pose... Herne and Jorne2 anyone? Or Brun and Lug goes like Kaya3 but with that pose (or even without that pose so I can make it xD)

That's an amazing picture. And yes, I totally take your point. Some of the stories are just insane and silly, while some of the fiction is some of the best game fiction ever written. It really runs the gamut, which can be expected from something that has been around this long.
