High Gothic sentence making piorities list:
1) Does it sound cool?
2) Does it sound latin?
3) Can it be understood by someone who has no real knowledege in latin?
4) Does it check out with rest of the canon and/or was used before?
5) Is it correct?

So, you know...

EDIT: Causa mortis isn't actually cause of death, I think. Causa mortis is actually a legal term for a deathbed gift.

Strangely, that sounds even more appropriate to write onto a bolter round.

I thought Rammstein is the one true music to play with WH40K.

I'm thinking of making some lesser daemons and a greater daemon of Malal based off the concept art Ackland did way back in the early days of warhammer, and while I know what I'll use as the base for the lesser daemons I have no idea what to use for the greater daemon.

The lessers I can base off ghouls with their manes cut off, curved claws stuck where their hands where and long snouted heads attached to them.

The closest I can find in build to the greaters concept art is the Skaven Verminlord, but that's waaaay too furry for Malal, since his daemons were going to be all chitin and scales originally.  :-\

It's kind of like how people say they have your name on a bullet. Though, in Wh40k, due to warp shenanigans, some cool Emperor quotes or other religious bullshit can actually cause the weapon to be more useful against deamons and whatnot. Also, purity seals. Purity seals everywhere.

EDIT:
And there is much more quotes from the Emperor, you just need to check some of the books where he appears.
Is there some sort of quote compendium to have eternal wisdom to throw in tau playing friends?

Yep.
On a more serious note - I don't think so, I'm actually suprised.

He's certainly said more, but like many, many things in 40k, his words have been lost to history.

Or rather apparently nobody bothered to quote them and put on internets. I mean, read the Last Church on Terra or something.

Make a scaly verminlord? It wouldn't be all that hard.

Well, for me to picture at least, I dunno about the making process.

Well, I guess none of the high lords want word getting out about what real-emperor was actually like.

Green stuff is annoying and I'm not good with it, the same is true of plasticard.  :(

I could slice off the fur and plaster some armour or something on top but that would distance it from the concept art more.
