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

MODERATORS
Honestly, I would only trust Ork and maybe Tau players. Everyone else needs questioning.
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.
Tau like to preach about the Greater Good (the greater good) but they're no valiant champions of morality. Least shitty by far, though.
Orks are questionable because they do cruel things without purpose except the cruelty. It's arguable that that's just how they're genetically programmed what with being artificially created and all that, like how I would argue the tyanids are the only "good" faction by virtue of being true neutral and at many stages more or less animals.
All the other factions do evil shit to whoever they feel is standing in their way, including their own people.
I hear all that, but counter-argument: Orks are funny.
You do make a good point.
The necrons are just sleepy bois what got woken up too early.
You know what, you're right.
Necrons Best Faction.
They just got woken up by a bunch of kids on their lawn.
They're justified.
What is wrong with necrons?
my ex liked the tau and he's pretty based, so i'll agree to that
