The Imperium of Man has discovered a way to safely travel between dimensions and the first universe they come across is the Sailor Moon-verse. Assume this is a year after the Sailor Moon R in the Crystal Tokyo time line and Earth has completely recovered. What happens?

The Imperium loses a few thousand imperial guard, then they lose two space marines and decide to just Exterminus the entire planetery system to eradicate the heretics.

Which miffs Usagi that she needed to spend four seconds stopping it, and that it wasn't very nice at all, so she sends Saturn to have a "talk" with them.

:D

The Imperium has one major problem that everyone going after the Sailor Moon crew faces. Namely the Plot Device Crystal. The ones capable of going after Crystal Tokyo as a result are any people who can counter with plot devices of their own such as Lina and the Giga Slave or Hikaru with Pillar of Cephiro powers or whatnot.

The Imperium of Mankind is sadly short on Plot Device items at this time.

they DO have a couple Blackrock Fortresses, a weapon so powerful it's powers arent really defined.

I thought those are under Chaos control, not Imperium of Man control. Didn't Abadon grab them from the Imperium who couldn't figure out how to use them, and showed the Imperium how good they are at blowing up planets before fleeing back into the Eye of Terror with a couple?

There were 9 of them I believe...I know Abbadon fled with two, one of which got destroyed...a few are not so much in Eldar control as under Eldar watch...I'm pretty sure the Imperium ended up with at least one of em. Fluff recently indicates that the Fortresses were likely created by the C'tan Star Vampires to kill each other. to kill a creature that feeds on suns, make a weapon that can blow up suns.

The imperium, from what i know, does not have one that is actually fully active. I do believe chaos does though.

The Imperium had about six Blackstones. They were created by the Eldar to defeat the C'tan. The Deciever helped start the Gothic War, which saw three of the Blackstones captured by Chaos. At the end of the war, one of the captured Blackstones was retaken, when it, and every Blackstone still in Imperial control, seemed to disintegrate.

During the 13th Black Crusade, Eldrad Ulthuan tried to free one of the Blackstones when it showed up to attack Cadia, but it turned out to be a trap, and his soul got eaten. Shortly afterwards, a Necron fleet appeared and attacked it. It may or may not have been destroyed.

Is there any reason that didn't end with, "and decide to just stop going back to that dimension"?

Frankly, the Imperium really is stubborn like that.

ya...stuff like, "We lost 47,000 Imperial Guardsmen...but we killed the heretic! Now, we have determined his influence was too great, so we have to Exterminus the entire planet anyway. for its own good of course."

You know, all these IoM threads are getting really tiring. It's like the new Dragon-Ball-Z on these boards.

This has actually killed my 40k fandom, which is crazy because these boards almost never have any real impact on how I think. However, I'm completely burned out an dead to 40k now, thanks to all these repeated Imperium of Man threads which simply get more and more tiring every time.

Meh. Warhammer Fantasy Battles is, and always has been, a better game anyway. :cool:

The problem with destroying Crystal Tokyo is Sailor Pluto. When every soldier attacking was retroactively killed as a baby, there are going to be problems.

There were 4 Blackstone Fortresses in the Gothic Sector. These Fortresses were the greatest defensive bastions in the sector, but Abaddon with the Hand of Darkness reactivated them and poluuted them with Chaos. In the final battle, the combined Eldar and Imperial battlefleets managed to destroy one of them, and Abaddon fled with the other two.

Another Blackstone Fortress was seen in the 13th Black Crusade. This was used by Abaddon to bait out Eldrad Ulthran, who boarded and attempted to take over the station. The station had been partially wrecked by a Necron fleet, and its orbit was deterorating over Cadia, if I recall correctly. During his attempt, his soul was eaten by Slaanesh and he died, along with the Blackstone.

The Blackstones themselves were created by the Old Ones, a race of beings that essentially created all life in the galaxy, to be the ultimate weapon against the Necron menace. The Blackstones have four Warp Cannons that can channel the power of the Warp itself into a shot. They can link together and fire a blast that is capable of destroying a sun from the edge of a solar system.

The Imperium no longer has any Blackstone Fortresses.

Yeah, but if she goes too far back, she might have to start dealing with the Emperor. And as we all know, the Emperor can do anything.
