Imperium: Man's old sins come home to roost.
Adaptus Mechanus (Heh. AM, high tech and they oppress mankind.): Huh. Looks like the golden age had some issues. Oops.
Tau: Ah. Might want to reconsider those AIs.
Eldar: Crap! We did not see this one coming. At all. Our whole predicting the future game is not working here.
Dark Eldar: No souls, no pain sensors, no nothing to give the slightest relief from she-who-thirsts. Every second we're fighting them is a second closer to eternal torment.
'Nids: These guys taste awful.
Chaos: These metal boxes fear not the might of the chaos gods! This might be bad for us.
Necrons: They aren't life. No warp presence, no souls to feed to the C'tan... but still we want to kill each other because, you know, 40k.
Orks: Oy! This looks like a zoggin good place for a scrap!
Okay, maybe not the Orks. Everyone else though, the point stands.
