The Comedy Marines Chapter believes that any form of entertaining or comedic wordplay is the best way to defeat the enemies of the Imperium.

They also have one of the highest mortality rates, as their Chaos Marine impressions, while uproariously hilarious, are accurate enough to earn them Bolter shots to the face. Nevertheless, they do their duty for their Emperor.

The Primarch of the Comedy marines is renown for once cracking a pun so bad, Khorne ripped off his own ears so that he would not hear another.

YOUR PRIMARCH HAS FALLEN SO FAR INTO CHAOS NOT EVEN TZEENTCH CAN FIT HIM INTO A PLAN

---

YOUR PRIMARCH IS SO FAT, THE INQUISITION ARE PURGING THE CHAPTER ON SUSPICION OF NURGLE POSSESSION.

---

WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE BATTLE-SISTER WHO APPEARS TO HAVE TWO BLACK EYES?

NOTHING! ORDERS HAVE ALREADY BEEN ISSUED TO HER TWICE!

Who everyone thought was a silly man,

He wrote the Codex Astartes

Wasn't invited to parties

And had the sexual skill of a derpy ram!

Battle-brother!

Messily?

>Hilariously.

---

Venerable Bjorn!

Have you heard the latest news about Abbadon?

His hands... fell.

(The geneseed of Brother Stromus was later recovered as Brother Stromus died of his injuries caused by a accidental malfunction of the venerable dreadnaughts power claw)

---

I SAY BROTHER HONDE, I DESIRED A PET, SO I PURCHASED A CYBER MASTIFF FROM AN AGENT OF THE IMPERIAL LAW.

>HOW IS THAT WORKING FOR YOU BROTHER JON'REL?

TERRIBLY! I ACQUIRED IT FROM A NEGLIGENT MASTER, AND THE POOR THING IS STUCK IN "AGGRESSIVE" MODE, SO IT CONSTANTLY MAKES NOISE AND ATTACKS, BUT HAD IT'S JAW REMOVED, MAKING IT HARMLESS.

>HOW AWFUL.

INDEED, YOU COULD SAY, OUR BARK WAS WORSE THAN ARBITES.

>DO_HO_HO_HO_HO

The Inquisitor declared Bjorn Excommunicate Traitoris for helping the civilian population while ordered to purge them.

> The audacity of that Inquisitor! What happened brother?

Well, Brother Ragnar, Bjorn had a malfunction with his lightning claw.

GUFFAW

---

BROTHER ALTOR, WHY DID THE TRAITOR GUARDSMAN CROSS THE ROAD?

>I DO NOT KNOW, BROTHER BASSIANUS, PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME.

I WOULD NOT PRESUME TO UNDERSTAND THE THOUGHTS OF A VILE HERETIC, BROTHER.

>AH, INDEED NOT.

---

>BROTHER, WHY DID THE ULTRAMARINE CROSS THE ROAD

DO TELL, BROTHER

>TO MEET HIS SPIRITUAL LIEGE

GUFFAW

---

Ah, Brother-Captain Joculus. Such a strong, imposing figure. I had the privilege to field alongside him forty years ago, arrayed against a force of Tzeentchian heretics.

>Amidst hard fighting, he suddenly turned to me, stubber rounds deflecting off his armor as he calmly spoke. "Brother, I have been contemplating these foes of ours."

"You have?" was all I could ask, for the absurdity of the moment.

>"I have. And I have come to realize, we are not so different after all." He surely knew my shock as my eyes widened as large as my helmet's lenses.

"Flamer," he said calmly, as he squeezed the trigger and fired a gout of promethieum past my ear, and an agonized shriek behind me told me he had not only saved my life, but done so in... how do the guardsmen say? Style. I wheeled around, to see the remains of a blue-and-purple, clawed monstrosity rolling and burning.

>"Flamer," he said lightly, and then handed me his blessed weapon. With his free hand, he pointed up the ridge at the next enemy wave, lead by the twisted form of a daemonette.

"Flame her."

>It was the most amusing battle I have ever had the honor of partaking in. And you should have seen his Grouchex-pattern servo skull. I could tell you, it was positively BRISTLING with digital weapons...

---

Brother

>Brother

I have an amusing question to ask you

>Proceed

How many kegs of Fenrisian Ale does it take to render a Space Wolf unconscious?

>I do not possess the answer brother, please enlighten me

I depends on the velocity it impacts their head with

>Most amusing brother.

Indeed

---

Tell me, brother, why do we not produce combi-weapons for close combat as well?

>Why, initiate, our swords are chained already.

---

Brother

>Brother

I have had an amusing observation based upon past missions and watching our chapter's head cook prepare today's meal

>Please share your observations

There is little difference between a Radical Inquisitor and an onion.

>Explain

An onion has layers much as a Radical Inquisitor has layers of deceit, an onion grows in the muck away from the light much like a Radical Inquisitor and they both have a repulsive almost corrupt smell that follows them

>Indeed but I can not find any merriment in this observation, astute thought it is

Quite so; But I did not weep when I carved up the Radical Inquisitor, but I wept for the sliced up onion.

>Most amusing brother

---

Tell me Brother Lanzarius, are you aware favoured tactical doctrine of the the 10th legion when encountering Eldar witches?

>I'm not Brother Jotium but please enlighten me that we might learn from their wisdom.

A hands on approach.

>GUFFAW! Your insight and wisdom is matched only by your wit Brother Lanzarius!

---

HAVE YOU HEARD THE TALE OF THE ILL FATED EXERCISE REGIME THE GUARDSMEN ADOPTED BROTHER?

>NO I HAVE NOT, ENLIGHTEN ME BROTHER.

THEY LOST HALF A PLATOON ONCE THE MEN STARTED DOING SQUATS!

>DOHOHO!

---

Brothers! Your attention!

The boisterous guffawing echoes through our chapter halls with such might and volume, it has already set off munitions in the armortorium! I fear for the safety of your SIDES to which you refer to so often!

I fear we may need a device to help strengthen our fused ribcages and black carapace. Perhaps to offer temporary respite, we should hold them in place with our mighty ARMS.

At this rate, we will need all of the SIDE ARMS we can get!

>GUFFAW

---

BROTHER

>YES BROTHER

DO YOU KNOW WHY THERE ARE NOT FEMALE ORK FILTH?

>ALAS, I DO NOT KNOW, BROTHER. WHY ARE THERE NO FEMALE ORK FILTH?

BECAUSE IF THERE WAS FEMALE ORK FILTH, THEY WOULD GO ON A WAAAGH ONCE EVERY MONTH

>OH EMPEROR PROTECT MY SIDES FROM THIS ALMOST HERETICAL AMOUNT OF MIRTH

---

BROTHER

>WHY DO YOU ADDRESS ME SO, LOWLY GUARDSMAN

I, TOO, USED TO BELONG TO THE RANKS OF SPACE MARINES

> TRULY? HOW DIDST THOU FALL SO LOW AS TO BECOME A GUARDSMEN?

I TOOK A LASBLAST TO MINE KNEE!

> I QUAKE WITH MIRTH BUT ALSO FEEL PITY FOR YOUR FALL FROM GREATNESS

---

BROTHER

>BROTHER

WHY DO BATTLE-SISTERS NEVER BREAK WIND?

>I DO NOT KNOW, BROTHER! ENLIGHTEN ME!

BECAUSE THEY NEVER CEASE TALKING LONG ENOUGH FOR THE PRESSURES TO BUILD UP!

>GOD-EMPEROR PRESERVE MY FUSED RIBS!

A new recruit of the Iron Hands was showing off his new mechanical manipulator to his fellow squad mates.

"Listen," he said. "My hand contains a communications uplink from which we can call for reinforcements when needed."

And as they leaned in towards his hand, they did hear the voice of the astropath in orbit around their planet.

The recruit then did dismiss himself to go to the bathroom.

Then, the Commissar did come searching for the young recruit and was told of his location.

Upon entering the latrine area, the Commissar did find the recruit upon the ground on all fours with a full roll of toilet paper wedged between his buttcheeks.

"BY THE EMPEROR'S THRONE! EXPLAIN WHAT YOU ARE DOING!" shouted the Commissar.

"Sir, I require silence as I am receiving a printed data sheet from my other implant!"

---

A Squad of Battle-Sisters were riding a vehicle going up a mountain to the site of battle at the top.

Driving down the mountain was a squad of Space Marines.

As the marines neared the sisters, one leaned out as voxed, "ORKS!"

The sisters, quite incensed at being insulted, screamed back, "HERETICS!"

As the sisters rounded a bend, their vehicle did collide with Orks standing in the road.

---

Brother Charis!

>Yes, Brother?

Why are the night lord heretics so easy to kill?

>Enlighten me, Brother.

Because they are KURZED

>GUFFAW

---

Brother

>Brother

Why are the Space-Wolves so willing to please the Sisters of Battle?

>Pray tell, I do not know!

They are willing to do anything for a good "bone" !

>I think I broke my humor geneseed-organ

---

BROTHER TERRANCE

>YES, BROTHER PHILIP?

I BELIEVE A TYRANID GENESTEALER MAY BE STOWING AWAY IN MY HINDQUARTERS SINCE THE LAST ENGAGEMENT. WOULD YOU CHECK TO SEE IF THEY MIGHT BE THERE STILL?

>I SHALL, BROTHER. *pause* I DO NOT SEE ANYTHING! I SHALL SEARCH DEEPER!

PPPFFFFFFLLLRRRRTTTT!!!!!

>NOW MY FACE SMELLS LIKE HERESY! IMMENSE LEVITY!

---

Brother, I have made a most interesting observation.

>Say on, Brother.

I have been enlightened as to the reasoning of how a filthy xenos may become pure.

>Impossible! Speak now before my incredulity overwhelms me!

Brother, our Boltgun shells make them holy!

"Brother Waldorf, do you remember that awesome battle when the Ultramarines used their superior tactical skill to save the Imperium from certain doom?"

"No."

"Neither do I!"

"DOHOHOHOHOHOHO!"

Brother Cleesias : 'Ello. I wish to register a complaint.

(The Techmarine Brother Palinus has his back to the register and does not respond.)

Brother Cleesias : 'Ello, Miss?

Techmarine Brother Palinus : (turning around, very angry) What do you mean, "miss"?

Brother-Captain Cleesias : I'm sorry, I have a cold.

(The Techmarine nods, understanding.)

Brother Cleesias : I wish to make a complaint!

Brother Palinus : (hurriedly) Sorry, we're closin' for lunch...!

Brother Cleesias : Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this Dreadnought, what I requisitioned not half an hour ago from this very forge.

Brother Palinus : Oh yes, the, ah, Venerable Brother Norwegias... What's, ah... W-what's wrong with it?

Brother Cleesias : I'll tell you what's wrong with it, Brother! It's dead, that's what's wrong with it.

Brother Palinus : No, no, 'e's ah... he's resting.

Brother Cleesias : Look, matey, I know a dead Dreadnought when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.

Brother Palinus : No no, h-he's not dead, he's, he's restin'!

Brother Cleesias : Restin'?

Brother Palinus : Y-yeah, restin.' Remarkable veteran, Venerable Brother Norwegias, isn't he, eh? Beautiful coffin!

Brother Cleesias : The coffin don't enter into it. It's stone dead!

Brother Palinus : Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting!

Brother Cleesias : All right then, if he's resting, I'll wake him up!

(shouting at the Dreadnought)

'Ello, Brother! Brother Dreadnought! I've got a lovely fresh alien for you to kill if you wake up, Mr. Dreadnought...

(Techmarine Brother Palinus hits the Dreadnought on the arm)

Brother Palinus : There, he moved!

Brother Cleesias : No, he didn't, that was you pushing!

Brother Palinus : I never!!

Brother Cleesias : Yes, you did!

Brother Palinus : I never, never....

(He pulls the coffin out of the Dreadnought and screams into its opening.)

Brother Cleesias : 'ELLO BROTHEEEER! BROTHER! BROTHER DREADNOUGHT! WAKE UP!

(He bangs the coffin against a Rhino, horribly hard.)

TESTIIIING! TESTIIIING! THIS IS YOUR NINE-O' CLOCK ALARM CALL!

(He does it again, harder.)

BROTHEEEEEER!

(He tosses it up in the air and watches it plummet to the floor. Longish pause.)

Now that's what I call a dead Dreadnought.

Brother Palinus : No, no.... No, he's stunned.

Brother Cleesias : STUNNED?

Brother Palinus : Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was wakin' up! Brother Norwegias stuns easily, major.

Brother Cleesias : Look my lad, I've had just about enough of this. That Dreadnought is definitely deceased, and when I requisitioned it not half an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it being tired and shagged out after a long decade of service in the Emperor's name.

Brother Palinus : Well, he's... he's, ah... probably pining for the throne.

(Cleesias looks angrily back and forth, stuttering.)

Brother Cleesias : PININ' for the THRONE? What kind of talk is that? Look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im online?

Brother Palinus : Venerable Brother Norwegias prefers kippin' on 'is back! Remarkable Dreadnought, isn't he, Brother, eh? Lovely coffin!

Brother Cleesias : (coldly) Look, I took the liberty of examining that Dreadnought when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that he had been looking out of his coffin in the first place was that he had been NAILED there.

(pause)

Brother Palinus : Well, of course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that Brother down, he would have nuzzled up to those bars, and VOOM!

Brother Cleesias : "VOOM?"

(Cleesias puts the coffin down and indicates the Marine inside.)

Brother Cleesias : Look matey, this Dreadnought wouldn't "voom" if you put four thousand volts through it! It's bleedin' demised!

Techmarine Brother Palinus : It's not! I-It's pining!

Brother Cleesias : It's not pinin,' it's passed on! This Dreadnought is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late Dreadnought! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the coffin he would be pushing up the daisies! Its metabolical processes are of interest only to historians! It's hopped the twig! It's shuffled off this mortal coil! It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible! This.... is an EX-Dreadnought!

(pause)

Brother Palinus : Well, I'd better replace it, then.

(He disappears behind the counter.)

Brother Cleesias : (turning to camera) If you want to get anything done in this crusade you've got to complain 'til you're blue in the mouth.

Brother, I have a joke.

>Please, do tell me, Brother.

Three filthy Tau Ethereals go to eat at a restaurant. After looking at the menu, they all decide on a pasta dish to eat. However, when the meals arrive, they are covered in large amounts of cheese. One of the treacherous Ethereals asks the waiter why there is so much cheese, to which he replies: "Sir, the chef insists it was for the Grater Good."

>MY SIDES! A PUN OF MOST AMUSING VALUE!

Brother, I have a jest that I heard from one of our chapters tech priests.

>My vox channel is open and receiving, brother

There were two holy techpriests working to revive our most venerated dreadnought. Unfortunately, the reviving was not going well.

>Do tell, brother.

One holy tech priest turns to the other tech priest to say "Master, I am unable to revive this most venerated dreadnought." The tech priest master says to him "Have you tried de activating and re activating him?" The lowly tech priest says to him "No I think he's dead."

Brother, I must share with you my experience of this morning.

> I am prepared to hear, Brother

I have been training an acolyte in close combat. Three days ago I gave him a chainsword and ordered him to slay one hundred xenos scum. At the end of the day, he had slain only ninety.

> I presume you had him purged at once?

Nay, Brother, for this acolyte was from a planet known for the stupidity of its inhabitants. So, the second day I offered him another chance, and he slew only ninety-nine foul xenos scum.

> So then you purged him?

Nay, Brother, for when a sword is poorly tempered, do you blame the sword or the smith? I realised I had not properly trained the acolyte, so I took him to the battlefield myself. Facing the xenos horde, I drew my chainsword, flicked it on - and the acolyte turned to me and said "Emperor on Earth, what is that noise?!"

> MY GUFFAWS ARE AS THE THUNDER OF A THOUSAND EARTHSHAKERS

Brother, what do you call a lasgun with a markerlight?

> I do not know Brother.

Twin-linked.

>How does every joke about commissars start?

>The trooper telling it looks over his shoulder.

This page is in need of cleanup. Srsly. It's a fucking mess.
