A New Terror in 40K: WEEPULS

[webimpulse]

The Imperium of Man has fought many terrors in its effort to claim the galaxy for its own: the forces of Chaos. The Necrons. The Tyranids. The Eldar. However, none of the civilized races in the galaxy will be prepared for the new horror set to consume the souls of all...

WEEPULS!

From beyond this dimension they come, their fuzzy biomass smothering all in their path, their utter cuteness striking terror in the eyes of all that are unfortunate to see them. Can anyone, even the Tyranids, stand up to their might...or their fuzz?

(Heehee...this thread is going to be an attempt at making a joke army for Warhammer 40K. So let's make one based on these guys. Make up units, fill in with joke stats and let's have fun. If you need inspiration for units just look up "weepuls" on Google for images.)

I remember those. The small ones had sticky feet so that you could put them on anything...

A blast from the past no doubt.

Hmm...I was hoping this thread would be more popular and there'd be some entries. Oh well, maybe it's because I didn't provide an example of what I'm looking for.

Again, I'm hoping people will post joke units as part of a parody 40K army using the weepuls as inspiration. So below is an example which will hopefully get things started:

Basic Weepul
WS: 3
BS: 2 (they don't have arms!)
S: 3
T: 4 (fuzz is tougher than you think...)
W: 1
I: 4
A: 1
Ld: 6
Sv: 6+

Unit Type: Infantry. What, the basic weepuls don't have signs, what else can they do?

Weapons:
Antennae Blasters (Range 12", Str. 4, AP 5, Rapid Fire):
Antennae Blasters are just that - the weepul fires bolts of silly energy from its two antennae. This is often accompanied by a silly battle cry, uttered in an ancient language long since lost, though some opponents have dubbed it "1337-speak."

Banner Whip
Standard close combat weapon. While the cloth banners of weepuls may look harmless at first, they can kill by their sheer tickling annoyance alone.

Special Rules:

And They Shall Know Only Cuteness:
Weepuls only know how to be silly, and in order to make a silly environment for themselves, if they have to conquer the galaxy, so be it. The tendency to be silly does distract them occasionally, however.

Basic Weepuls automatically pass Morale tests. Leadership tests, however, are always taken on 3D6: it's hard to be a leader when you're this silly.

They're Made of Fuzz For The Emperor's Sake!:
Fuzz is quite durable against certain kinds of damage, and since Weepuls are made entirely from it, they have all it's advantages and disadvantages. If they get hit in close combat with a blunt weapon, it's bluntness just bounces off, but fuzz is quite flammable...

Blunt CC weapons like Power Fists have to reroll all to-wound rolls that succeed, and take the new result even if it's lower. However, weapons that use the Flamer template automatically kill all Weepuls under its range.

So there you have it. Hope it's enough to get things started

It's probably not so popular because something similar's been done before. I'll try to dig up the old thread.
