    Oh Hell no, I don’t push the button!

    It said shifting into the Star Trek universe; it didn’t say anything about time travel or ending up on a planet other than Earth.

      It says transported. That could definitely mean time travel and/or another planet

      The 40k timeline is basically just normal Earth for a few more centuries at least. The Emperor is just out there, somewhere, fucking with shit.

      In fact, there would be a golden age on the horizon

          It’s basically Star Trek for like a millennium or so if I recall. Things didn’t always suck so hard in 40k, it took a while for it to become the grimdark hell it is in the 42nd century

        Or you show up on a Ferrengi ship with no gold pressed latinum. My GOD think of everything you’ll owe them for just for dropping you off somewhere? Air, water, light, carpeting, gravity, heat, cooling, pressurized cabin, shields, warp travel fee…

          somewhere inside the delta quadrant or gamma quadrant, or the center of the galaxy, probably around cytherian homeworld. it is still largely unexplored even in the modern trek series.

        There are fates worse than death in the 40k universe, like being captured by the dark eldar. If I can take a method of suicide with me, then maybe (though even then, my soul is going to end up in the immaterium).

    That’s a 90% chance I get to see a better future and a 10% I’m still stuck in hell. Yes please deliver button. I do not want to remain here to see what is coming either way. I will take those odds happily. So very very tired of living in America. I hope we are heading for Star Trek still but we have to go through World War 3 to get there. Might be Dune though.

    You narrowly avoid Warhammer as you see you’re on the Enterprise. You’re called for a mission. Shortly before you’re beamed down you see it. You look down.Your heart starts racing. You’re wearing a red shirt.
