A Visit From Logan Grimnar
'Twas the night before Solstice, when all 'cross the front
Not a soldier was stirring, not even a grunt;
Spent store-crates were stacked 'neath the light of the moon
With the hope that The Emp'ror would send supplies soon
The troopers were hunkered down, snug in their bunks
All dreaming of orks blown to meaty, wet chunks
And the captain and I had just knelt for a prayer
In the hopes the next battle might some of us spare
When out past our trench there arose such a sound
I grabbed for my gun and jumped up with a bound
Away to the peep-hole I rushed with a jolt
jumped up on the fire-step and chambered a bolt.
The fires on the wreckage strewn 'cross no-man's land
Lit up the night sky for as far as it spanned.
When what do my wondering eyes fast resolve
But an ancient grav-sled, drawn by great Thunderwolves.
With a hulking old driver, white haired with a scar,
I knew in a flash: it was Logan Grimnar!
More rapid than las-bolts his war-beasts they came,
And he roared and he cursed and he called them by name:
"Now Tyrnak, now Fenrir, now Mjollnir and Jotun"
"On Gungnir, on Frostfang, on Uller and Wotun".
"Bring death to the xenos! Bring blood to this night!"
"Now charge, now ride on - we will put them to flight!"
Like an avalanche set by a century's snow-fall,
They crashed into the ork camp and broke through them all.
Firing wrist-mounted bolters as onwards he flew,
scatt'ring orks like shell casings - so many they slew!
Like lightning they struck, the whole camp was aflame,
Breaking through they rushed on, 'til to our lines they came.
I lost sight for a sec, then as I looked around
Right into our trench leapt Grimnar with a bound.
He was dress'd all in fur, from his head to his toes
And his wolf-pelts were red from the blood of his foes.
The trenchboards shook as he stalked down the track
And he looked like a wolf on the hunt with his pack.
His eyes - deep inside, there a twinkle I saw
T'was a bloodlust so fierce that I fell back in awe
The Old Wolf's grizzled mouth flickered as he drew near
The trace of a smile - I had no need to fear
Though he loomed like a nightmare from old soldiers myths
It was not death like that which he brought out forthwith
From beneath his great cloak he withdrew a large sack.
Which he opened at once - I was taken aback
There were bolters and lasguns and meltas and more
I had never seen such a collection before
From the seemingly bottomless sack he pulled out
Enough weapons to put a whole army to route
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
Fill'd all the supply crates, then turn'd with a jerk
And laying a finger aside his great nose
He gave me a nod and then from the trench rose
Then he sprung to his sleigh, to his team gave a howl
And away they all flew; hunters back on the prowl
And that was the last seen by this commissar
Of the wonderous force known as Logan Grimnar
But I did hear him roar, ere he drove out of sight —
HAPPY SOLSTICE TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD FIGHT!

And the 30k version
Twas the night before Atheistmas, when all through the mist
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Fist
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Leman Russ soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of flavoured corpse starch danced in their heads.
And Malcador with his staff, and I in my plate,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s respite.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Magnus, my son, appeared with a flash,
Frightened the populace with an almighty crash.
'Father!' He cried out 'Horus is fallen!'
'What?!' I triraded, all shouting and callin'
When, what to my maddening eyes should appear,
But a big-ass fleet, and seven Primarchs I fear.
In a moment, my marines, with Chainsword and gun
I knew in a moment 'Battery and Cannon.'
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he bombarded, and deployed, all was fire and flame!
"Now Sangy! Now, Jagahti! Now, Polux and Dorn!"
"On, Fulgrim On, Kurze! on Mortarion, Angron!"
"To the top of the Spire!" "To the top of that wall!"
"Now march on! March on! MARCH UPON ALL!"
As bombardments that before them wild astartes loot,
And macroncannon, and lance battery shoot.
And so up to my palace-top my marines they fought,
With the warp full of deamons, and advantages were sought.
>>44372943
And then, for reasons unknown, as I heard from an aide
'Sire! The Vengeful Spirit's shields are a-fade!'
As I drew in my power, and conferred with my Son
Up toward the teleport we charged, our hearts weighed a ton
He was called all in scale, from his head to his foot,
And his skins were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A wolf skin he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a God, just stood without tact.
His eyes-how they burned! His mind - what a will!
His face was like madness, his maul - an anvil!
His cruel little mouth was drawn up as a sneer
And the beard of his chin was black without peer.
The stump of The Angels head he held tight in his claw,
And his body slumped, I a moment too late, delayed by the War.
Tears sprang to my eyes and I fell to the floor.
That shook when he laughed, my grief now torn.
We duelled and fought, me and his-dammed-self
And I held back when I opposed him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon told me that I had everything to dread.
He spoke many a word, to turn me to the God's,
He ripped off my arm, then against all the odds
A lone guardsman entered the bridge
And defied Him and died, as you would slay a midge
I sprang to my feet, and to my powers I called upon
And away his soul died, and to you I leave a new dawn
And with a last breath I exclaim to the Imperium, bright:
"Happy Atheistmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

I just want to point out that ponies are just smaller breeds of horses, not young horses. A young horse is called a foal.
>>44378507
and i just want to point out that 'equestrian' could mean horse or pony. So maybe he wants a baby pony.

>Twelve circlejerk threads
>only 12
that'd be nice
>>44391416
am I the only one who automatically reads 'BBEG' as 'Big Bad Evil Guy' rather than 'bee bee ee gee'? reading that makes my brain hurt
>>44396456
I read it as "Bee-Beg".
>>44397207
wouldn't it make more sense to read it as just 'Beg'? I mean, if you get a double 'b' in the middle of a word you just pronounce it as one so logically that should extend to double 'b' at the start of a word. Essentially what I'm saying is that we should treat 'bbeg' like we treat 'llama' and pronounce it 'Beg'.
