Last time I checked it was explicitly in the sticky but they might have changed it. That 4chan doesn’t enforce the rules it sets would be implicitly allowing it.
As for your argument that this is cringe I doubt there are 3 threads on any board that no one would call cringe.

>Be me, Sir Dieter Staller, of House Staller.
>Be not me, noble Questoris Knight Virtus Venator, a more loyal companion you will never find.
>Just touched down on the surface of Trucaris, a Jungle World, alongside the valorous soldiers of the Valhallan 545th.
>The drawbridge of the Drop Keep is barely down, as I, astride in Virtus Venator, are already barreling out.
>There is battle to be done.
>Chainblade revving, and Thermal Cannon already glowing with anxious heat, I fall upon the vile foe.
>Greenskins.
>Feet stomping, Chainsword singing, Thermal Cannon burning I scatter them like the vermin they are.
>Liege'sWorkBeDone.holo
>Then a member of my Lance, Helmut, astride in the gallant steed Veritas Mortis, explodes.
>My heart aches at the sight of his loss.
>He was a terrible singer, and Veritas Mortis was somewhat grumpy, but they were still Knights Emperor-damnit!
>My eyes locate what I assume to be the culprit, an ugly, twisted mess of what might have passed for an armored vehicle in a Greenskin's mind.
>Barking an order to follow me at the rest of my Lance, I took off charging the mockery of a tank that dared to take the life of a member of the Staller Household.
>Stomping past the valiantly fighting Valhallans and Skitarii, I ignore them and their Vox Chatter, my mind focused on vengeance alone, with Virtus Venator's Machine-Spirit egging me on, like the voice of a lover whispered into my ear, for me to hear alone.
>My Lance, warhorns blaring, breaks through the Orks, like they are but wheat before a peasant's scythe, until we crash into the vehicle's position.
>Without thinking, the Thermal Cannon that is Virtus Venator's left arm roars, its target the tank.
>"You shall pay, foul beasts!"

How comes Knights were mentioned but nobody uses them?

>>84675758
People like ground level stuff, there’s also a swarm of age of technology tanks that no one has done anything with, the archiotech space ship is trying to avoid everyone else in character basically being an objective for the AdMech and nobody wants to play as an ork hybrid.

>His ordinance seams to have woken up something massive that was inside and is now chasing my alpha primus around.
>Suddenly the archeo ship contacts me.
>Says something about a portal to another solar system with an ice world opening up to swallow this one?

>The Thermal Cannon turns the mechanical abomination into a molten heap, armor plates and gun barrels twisting like leaves thrown into a campfire.
>Yet it was remarkably resilient, with the projectiles of some of the Orks' crude approximations of Autoguns or Stubbers still bouncing off of my steed's armored carapace after the blast.
>TooChivalrousForThis.data
>I finish it off by driving the revving blade of Virtus Venator's Chainsword deep into its armor, until I hit what I assumed passed for an engine or fuel storage.
>Fire and fury spread through the crumpled remains of the vehicle, making it shudder under my weapon, until even the last weapon fell silent, and burning Orks and Gretchen fall out, rolling on the ground or flailing their arms.
>My Lancemates finish the miserable beasts off with Bolt Cannons and Heavy Stubbers.
>Panting, I raise Virtus Venator's head towards the sky, warhorns blaring in a triumphant, thundering roar.
>Helmut was avenged. Justice was done.
>Activating the Vox Casters upon Virtus Venator's hull, I speak up.
>"Vile Xenos, know that it was Sir Dieter, of House Staller that brought your doom!"
>Then I turn towards the Imperial lines.
>Noticing the Valhallans staring at me, or, more accurately, my steed and the wrecked Xenos tank it stood upon, I raise my Chainsword towards the Guardsmen in a warrior's salute.
>Valiance deserves to be honored.
>"Well fought, sons of Valhalla, and sons of the Omnissiah. Without your work, I couldn't have avenged my fellow. The glory of this day belongs in part to you"
>Then I turn back towards the fleeing Orks, and charge, my Lancemates in tow.
>"But do not celebrate for too long, there are more foes to be slain!"
>Vengeance might be sated, but there was still work to be done.

>Using a Tau pulse carbine against a grot is fast overkill, you can probably one hit even a relatively large ork with this bad boy... I mean heretic technology.
>Every once and a while think something is watching me, but it is probably just one of those pervy catgirl snipers hiding in the trees.
>Really big explosion happens, but there has been lots of those lately, so I don’t even notice until after the cheering starts that someone blew up the big Ork megatank.
>Look over, the Knight is striking a pose.
>Glad that is over, time for some more tanna, and maybe some vodka.
