    I'm nothing if not practical...

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    While i would normally agree that men/fathers have no place at the birth.....

    Not strictly true, my mrs was in labour (induced) for 3 days which ended in an emergency c-section. I was there the whole time, operating room, the full works.

    Number 2 was elective c, so not so much of a marathon birth but again I was there for. the whole time.

    Thankfully the only complications were finding a gown big enough for me .

    Useless ? I think not

    Well obviously there are situations where they should be there, when things don't go to plan. It's not just my mother saying they are useless though, one of her friends married an obstetrician and he says husbands are a real pain in the bum being thre. He hospital would ban them if it could. He also said the husbands are useless often the wives will send them away, or will sometimes injure their husbands. It's all very amusing listening to him complain about fathers at births. Once or twice a year he has to call security to have fathers removed because they are interfering in him doing his job.
    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    There you go Witt, your simple thread about getting a single space marine as turned into an existential deabte on the usefuleness of the male gender. Who'd have thought it? And Wolfshade hasn't even been on this thread. At the risk of getting back to the OP, I'm still considering whether to go, if I do I'll hook you up with a model since I'd need to convert him to get into my Raven Guard, but you may want to rely on someone a bit more decisive.

    Haha, I know right? At least its the usual suspects doing it. I can appreciate that.

    As for the Muhreeen. I'll take it as a definitely maybe. If so, that's great, If not, that's fine too. I figure if I wait 6 months or so after I'll be able to pick it up for around $25 anyways, since they're not as "rare" as they used to be.

    I may have some Raven Guard bolters lying around, FYI....

    I *could* have helped with the Space Marine... I just have no idea how I'd get it to you.

    And my comments were relevent up until my last.
