"Master...Why do we fight?"

>"Master...Why do we fight?"

To win the war.

For the glory of the motherland! Now charge that gun line, 'Jack!

We've got to be the very best. The best there ever was...

"Because why we did anything will only matter if we win."

We must, so others don't have to.

DO NOT THROW SOULS

"We fight for the same reason they do. Too much has been lost, too much has been destroyed, too much has been sacrificed. If we stop now, if we give up now, all that has been lost would have been for nothing. The heroes, the cowards, the dead, the living, it would all be meaningless if we stop now. We know it, and so do they. We have to keep going because we must."

FIGHT
FOR
JUSTICE

"For my people, the true question is: What is worth fighting for?"

"Oi, cap'n, the 'jack's gone all existential again!"
"Whack it wi' th' wrench s'more an' see if that fixes it."

"For the Emperor, of course. Now get the fuck back out there before I shoot you for heresy!"

Does Warmachine actually have lore?

"a martial artist trains to be strong, both for himself and for
those weaker than him. We learn to fight to protect those
who cannot fight for themselves, and to defeat those who use
their skills for gain at the expense of others. But the
reason we learn special techniques, Son, the really fancy
flashy stuff, is to beat the hell out of mentally deranged
men who run around naked and try to molest us. I don't
expect you to understand that, not today; but someday.

Because it's funny.
Now go make me laugh.

Yes. It originated as an RPG setting. There's actually quite a bit of lore and the setting's pretty thought out.

Yes. But anybody who shows more than a cursory knowledge of it is usually run out on a rail for being insufficiently hardcore.

About to go on an assassination run are we?

Yup, there's like... sisters and one is good and the other evil and also a slut and then somebody pounds that pussy so hard he breaks her in half but she gets better. And elves are nazis.

Holy shit a fully sentient warjack!

YUP! Just stocking up on "ammo" first...

Dammit, Grif.

...

I dunno, that sounds a lot of fun

Because we are ordered to. We don't need any other reason

But..Why? What do we get?

To serve the butter

Because I offered them compromise, and they responded with insults.

We get to exist

"What do we want?"
"A girl worth fighting for!"

Shorter version:
We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.

Original version:
What we must fight for is to safeguard the existence and reproduction of our race and our people, the sustenance of our children and the purity of our blood, the freedom and independence of the fatherland, so that our people may mature for the fulfillment of the mission allotted it by the creator of the universe. Every thought and every idea, every doctrine and all knowledge, must serve this purpose. And everything must be examined from this point of view and used or rejected according to its utility.

We fight not because we have to. Not for the thrill of battle, or for the money, ranks, accomplishments, or anything in the other likes. We fight not to kill just because. We fight because that's all we know how to do.

If you don't fight. You die.

Why wouldn't we? Why wouldn't you.

FOR THE LAWBRINGER OF COURSE, NOW GET TO BURNING

That works for me
