One of the most enduring, lasting and popular races in Warhammer 40,000, /tg/ loves the Sarhaduin.
...All right, not really.
In truth they're a hold-over from the Rogue Trader days, when the Imperium of Man was less racist, Eldar could interbreed with humans, and Orks were.... Exactly the same as they are now, but with cooler hats and derpier faces. Squats were around, and the Saharduin (which themselves may have been derived from the Sahuagin of DnD) date back to these long-since-forgotten glory days. Whether this is good or bad largely depends on your viewpoint; they're the subject of a massive level of love and hate - simultaneously no less - on /tg/. As is the case with My Little Pony and Touhou, it's something that /tg/ both loves and hates, all at once.
On one hand, they are SHARKS WITH GUNS! They are also a type of Merfolk and Furry, and if threads on /tg/ are any indication, a widely-believed-to-be-smexy-by-deviants one. They're also a reference to Warhammer 40K from the days where it was less grimdark and more hair metal. Fuck yeah.
On the other hand, they're a favored means of trolling /tg/, since /tg/ hates furries with an abiding passion. In dozens of threads, a small but vocal minority has flooded threads with shark-girls until either the mods unleashed an orbital strike or until hilarity occured when /tg/ did its time-honored practice of getting shit done.
Nowadays, any discussion of Saharduin inevitably leads to a Sharkgirl thread within half-a-dozen posts.
TL;DR: A great example of /tg/ being /tg/.
