They could. They could also equip all their space marines with jetpacks and lascannons, and not be a bunch of ass-backwards fundamentalists. 10 m/s for about one centi-second is not that much of a weakness.
My brother's anguish as my death jester vortex grenaded his Terminator Librarian is a rather fond memory.

It's the sodding Emperor. There's no shame in getting owned.

To be honest, they don't really want to kill Gix. They want to rescue the other eldar (for my nefarious plot related purpouses) hence why they're here in such strength. Now that Gix has had his warning, the plan is to knock him out, give him a wedgie, and go.
A little explosion to get your attention, an assassination attempt (which they would have liked to have pulled off) and a warning of why you should just give up the crusade. If you mon-keigh scum don't start behaving better now, you can expect more direct action from them in the future.

In fact, I may do that at any time you use teleporters, just out of spite towards you.
Plus, entering a ship via a torpedo is just fucking cool.

Question for PCM. Does pater have NBC protection at the moment?
Same question to the cat, for Jolan, too, now I think about it...

Damn. I would have liked to give him a taste of hallucinogen grenade... *puts the dice away* that table has some fun things too.

And now, I must go to watch stargate. Be back later.
PS: I reccommend that Pater run like hell. But then, I'm a coward.

In case you're wondering, Pater's not far from Gix, on the deck below. The group he's engaging are attempting to go around to rescue the target, while the Shadowseer and Great Harlequin go for the direct route through Gix.

I wouldn't really call Lena a lover per se. I certainly wouldn't say they've ever slept together.
Ironically, the insult in one of Cat's fics, about Lena being a lesbian, isn't too far out, after a fashion.

You know you lead an interesting life, when getting a new leg has become routine for you.

I'm waiting for the puddy-tat now. I think his bit needs to be resolved before we move on.

Quick question: How far behind the seer has Jolan popped up?
