The Warhammer 40K Design Philosophy

• "Yo, you know what's cool? Swords. But you know what's even cooler? Chainsaws!"
  "Dude!? You know what would be even cooler than both of those??? Chainswords!!!"
  "Oh man, that's awesome! High five!"

The end result of combining hallucinogenic substances with buckets of dice and lots of sci-fi minis but only medieval bits, the 40k design philosophy is the underlying basis for the famous Warhammer 40,000 miniatures game universe and mechanics. Mostly it revolves around rolling as many dice as your average gamer can lift combined with gluing skulls wherever possible and then a few more places.
