Imperial Guard are a bunch of wimp asses

Played over two hours of skirmish with the Imperial Guard forces against the Chaos forces in the Winter Assault add-on to Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War, and the Imperial Guard just gets shredded too easily.

CNN.com – DeLay indicted, steps down as majority leader – Sep 28, 2005 I’ve never liked Tom Delay. The man exudes slime with his look and actions. I told his office to stop calling me when they wanted to invite me to some small business owner get together.
