But yeah, to give a serious answer, the Necrons are the winners of the War in Heaven, the first and greatest war to ever happen. No war will ever approach the intensity of the conflict that changed the Warp from the relatively calm thing it was before into the frothing whirlpool of hell that it is now.  They're pretty much the biggest most dangerous power in the whole galaxy if they all awoke, which they're beginning to do if GW hadn't cast Stasis on the timeline preventing any progress.

Can someone tell me how much of a threat the Necrons are? I have it in my head that they're about as big as the Tau (in terms of territory and military power) and they get curb-stomped by the Eldar since they use wraithbone.

The Imperium isn't gonna survive in it's current form no matter what, unless Empy's somehow resurrected. Otherwise the Golden Throne will someday fail, the Astronomicon will go out, and the Imperium will fall apart.
And I've no idea what the hell's happening with Ghazkull - first he failed to smash Armageddon on the pretense that he was testing it out or some bullshit, and now he's apparently running around the galaxy using his influence to start off varying WAAAGHs until they become self-sustaining, which honestly isn't all that orky of him.
Honestly though, the greatest threats to the galaxy I'd say would be the fully awakened Necrons, followed by the Tyranid full fleet, if it even exists - it was only ever speculated IIRC, never confirmed that there was a larger Tyranid fleet - followed by the Orks if they ever fully organize under one Warlord like what happened one time with the Beast. After that it gets kinda muddled.

Actually they're called the Chaos Gods because GW ripped off Michael Moorcock's cosmology to make them, not really anything else.

There's also all the cool factions that don't have an army to their names like the Hrud.
There's also whatever happened with the Old Ones.
The Orks possibly doing something bigger than what they've been doing since their creation like maybe evolving into the Krork or something.
The Old Ones were eaten first by the C'Tan and then daemons. "Krork" is just the old name for "ork".
While what you said is mostly accurate kinda...that video is just about the most inaccurate thing I've seen, and I say that as a fan of the series.
No one really knows what happened to the Old Ones after the Enslaver plague; they might have fled the galaxy, they might have died, no one knows.
There is the Hrud's deity Qah who's heavily implied to be the remnants of an Old One, however.
About the Krork, no one really knows. It could be the old name for Ork, it could be the intended form of the Orks as made by the Old Ones (because they certainly wouldn't have relied on the goddamn Orks to fight the C'Tan for them), it could be nothing. It's the problem of the lore being so vague.

This may be a weird thing to complain about, but my calves have been abnormally sore for the last two or three days. Sure they're normally a little strained after a karate session but this is a different kind of pain, one where even standing up hurts. And it's just the calves too, not the thighs or anything. It's odd.
Do they feel... Hot? Warmer than the rest of the body? If so you might need to rest a bit, if not you should probably check it at an infirmary, there are some small meds that is meant exactly for that.
Not hot, just sore. I should go check it at a clinic probably since it's lasted around 3 days now.

Will grots actually get a bonus to shooting I know they are better at shooting in the lore but will they actually get a bonus in this?
GM said no. Aiming is unorky.
Aiming isn't necessarily unorky in and of itself, it's just that the process of aiming tends to reduce the amount of dakka coming out of the gun, and that's the unorky bit.

And If I see any more people arguing about this in anything but the most pleasant of tones I'm gonna yank their characters from where ever they currently are and throw them into a basement knife fight from which only one of them may leave alive.
Hmmm... If I am in spaceship with a slowly decaying orbit, can I start arguing in non-pleasant tones to be transported somewhere with higher chances of survival, like, say, a basement fight with roughly 50/50 chances of survival?[/exploit_seeking_mode]
Sure, but your opponent is a ghost ship.

We will DIE against space marines. Have you played Space marine? A single captain of a mere two centuries service destroyed hundreds of orks with little effort all by himself. (Being part of the greatest chapter of them all may have had something to do with it, though.) We'll need a WAAAGH! if we're ever gonna have a chance of taking it which is impossible seeing as all the other tribes are led by robots.
Admittedly Titus was a badass of unusual calibre even amongst space marines, but yeah right now we'd have a tough fight even against a scout marine. We have some more growing to do.

Because other players keep getting me zapped for no reason and i want some sense of playability for my character.

Currently it feels like im playing a choose your own adventure game, minus the choose.
I figure that if enough people get pissed at command's decisions we can break off and form our own counter-revolution group MRA: Movement of Raging Assholes.
