What game...

Post by Chardok »

I remember seeing a few years ago a game....an image is stuck in my mind...perhaps it is boxart, but...it was a guy in a suit of powered armor lots of writing and shit on it...on his shin was painted in red letters, with an arrow pointing down to his foot, the words:

Your Ass Here


anyone remember what game that was?

Sounds like one of the various Warhammer 40K games. As for titles I cant recall right now. But the "down arrow" is a tactical marking for Space Marines in that universe.

It sounds like your talking about the picture of the marine on page 29 of the Starcraft manual. But that picture is black and white.

The "troop" infantry marking would only be on the shoulder pad... I doubt it was a 40k game.

Er..your right. I misread the original post. Well, it still could be a WH40K game, but power armor is not excluse to that world. :)

Space Marines, being the stuck up overzealous supermen that they are, would never put something so crude as "Your ass goes here" on their sacred power armour.

Well, not unless it was in Latin, anyway.
