Is the Fallen aren't traitors, would they be more along the lines of renegades considering the schism between the Lion and Luther?

I imagine hosting the Death Guard went. Yeah we will go traitors. before they realize that they are hosting disease infested chaos worshipers.

>>52356201
The grey line between Traitor and Loyalist seems rather cut and dry. You either go full retard for the chaos gods or you don't. Where you most likely remain loyalist because of the scary dark things in the galaxy.

I like to think so as well, there's lots of room for creative conversions and fluff, especially in the types of interactions the force can have with the galaxy at large. Bartering with Aliens, discovering lots technology and... NOT destroying it because tainted AI or what have you.

Seriously though, all the primarchs did something a little wrong. However, the loyalist primarchs that were actually at terra did the least wrong.

Warders of Rhython are a special reserve unit of Custodes that showed up in Inferno and were super mysterious. Like them being made part of the Censure host was a huge deal.

Apparently they're super intense because a basic one held a block by himself on Prospero for hours against hundreds.

Don't know about color, but some had lion skin capes.

Probably dark purple

>>52357970
Lion skin, a lot of the time, but colours varied, it was quite a large organisation by the end. Purple would be fitting, I guess, but do you really want to wear their colours on Custodes? They had a pretty well-deserved reputation for deposing quite a lot of people they were supposed to be guarding for someone offering a better deal.

Librarians in BL books often have blue armour, or blue robes in the case of the dank angels, but that could just be the BL authors not paying attention again.

Fast: 3x Vorax automata w/ frag grenades

>>52358976
For what army? You have a troops choice that, while fearless, will die to bolters and has the hitting power of a wet noodle. You then have a t6 unit thats predominantly 4+, but hits infantry like a truck, and presumably that unit has a big fat scorpion sitting ready to damage primarchs and such. It would have its uses as an extra scoring unit and a slow counterattack unit, but the only time i see it being useful is if you have either a gunline that needs an interceptor to stop stuff like firedrakes, or a hyper-offensive assault list that wants a powerful character getting at the flanks of an enemy. Whats your list that its allying to?

Fuckin A

Reading Parh of Heaven after finishing Scars (poor Shiban, maimed for saving generic mortal female character #438514).

Mortarion has gone from utter refusal to allow the use of sorcery in any way, shape, or form in Scars and A Thousand Sons to begrudgingly devouring a lifetime's education in sorcery ASAP in Path Of Heaven.

What triggered this change in perspective? How'd it happen? What books should I read to understand a bit more?

I read the opening trilogy but stopped reading Eisenstein after because I thought it kinda sucked. I know that's the origin or Grulgor, though. I kinda know about him in general - he basically becomes a daemonic version of the life eater virus doesn't he? Does that have anything to do with it?

Where the fuck is Typhon/us and WTF is he doing?

>>52359117
Honestly, i would say avoid it, as A) it adds very little you need, to the point of useless bloat, since once he's on the board he's just gonna have everything ever run away from him, unless you bring both him and horus to herd the enemy together which is insane overkill, B) it isnt fluffy at all to have the lord of Xana aiding SoH, and SoH dislike receiving aid anyway, and C) you're just taking scoria for a cheaper primarch-level character, which is just bleh.

Consider, if you insist on running with it anyway, bulking it out with more vorax and another unit of thralls. Thralls get surprisingly tough with FnP and 4+, and make acceptable backfield objective holders and/or tarpits

Probably worth reading the short story Daemonology (in War Without End). Doesn't fully explain it, but connects some dots.

Typhon appears to be fucking about doing doughnuts with his spaceship while Wile E Corswainote chases him. He's starting to receive gifts from grandfather nurgle though, so full corruption is probably only a matter of time.

>>52359226
All legions can do just about anything, but yes, IW, Death Guard, Iron Hands, Salamanders etc can benefit from focusing on shooting whilst their Iron Scions intercept deathstars and tear them a new butthole.

So psi-titans aren't the only LoW available to Talons? Good to know. Been looking at getting a Knight, just have to figure out what type and how to paint it. Are all knights only available to knight houses or do forge worlds run some of their own? I can't remember what the current year fluff for them was. Like could it be possible to paint a knight in the style of a Mars based titan legion or something? Don't think Ordo Sinister had anything other than the two dozen warlords.

Since it's Greek Independence Day I have found the IRL Kyr Vahlen.
>Karaiskakis was no less rugged or uneducated than his fellow-soldiers were; yet, even amongst these rugged men, he was notorious for his loose tongue and the brazen torrents of obscenities heuttered. Thus, in late April-earlyMay of 1823, while addressing the messenger of the silihtar* Boda,the Albanian general who was at the time organising a corps of 5000 Moslem Albanians in an Ottoman attack on the Greek forces of central Greece, he said:

>Come on, you shitty Turk... Come on you Jew, you pawn of the gypsies... Fuck your faith and your Mohammed. What did you think, you cuckolds...you should beashamed to ask us sign a treaty with such a shitty Sultan Mahmud. I shit on him and your vezir and that Jew silihtar Boda, the whore.5
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0OgoySjNCM
>He says "When I return, I'm going to fuck them (Turks) up."

>Karaiskakis was a legendarily vulgar man. He referenced his cock and balls a lot. In the song there is references to "Violins and drums on my cock." This is because there is a legend that he was literally shot in the crotch and survived and from that point on, he would taunt the Ottomans with his genitals by referring to them in such a way.

Wargear rules each Cortex Controller opens a 0-1 Heavy Support slot for either Thallax, Castellax or Vorax. Then Praevian can take either Castellax or Vorax as his retinue. IW Techmarines may take Cortex Controllers, IH Head of the Gorgon allows any Battle-Automata (Domitar, Castellax, Vorax, Arlatax) to be taken as Elites choice.
Also Brethren of Iron generic Rite makes Domitar, Castellax and Vorax non-compulsory Elite, Troop and Fast Attack choices respectively.
My opinion (as I've seen no one else think of it so far) is that the Dark Angels Firewing protocol may unlock additional robots since the fluff for Xana hints at their knowledge on the workings of Mechanicum tech.

Reductor has no specific Lords of War, just the usual Mechanicum Crazy Box. And shiny as that is, it doesn't let us take anything Heresy, which is a lot less stuff once MaC and SA showed up. Unless you want to drop a whale-stormbird, anyway. I was thinking some form of Magos Prime option that lets them take the 0-1 LA Tank HS that's already in the Istvaan Survivors FoC, like a Forge Lord. That was slight hyperbole, but if Legions can take boops, they shouldn't be BETTER than the boopmasters.

OK, I need to make me some of those. And install some bays for them on the Filiketos plans even since it can't transport MCs, because I kind of want to have it carry literally everything in a diorama sometimes. Army on Sky Parade. Macrocarid, two or three arty tanks, Titan Guard, Myrmidons, a shit ton of Magi, Archmagi and support units, Servitors, Thallax and Ursarax drop troops and a bay on one side for two Vulturax siblings and on the other for big brother Arvus.

Havoc Launchers score any decent kills?
Did she take any fire, and if so how'd the T6 Flared chassis hold up? I've been umming and ahing over including two of those or a Lightning in my army build list, but I already have a decent dose of Spartan-killing.

>>52364580

50 strike aircraft is a reasonable strategic response to something like that, plus escort fighters and such. IIRC that's well within your standard WW2 bombing raid dimensions, let alone a planetary one. The Titans are immune to Haywire, but the Void Shields aren't and two squads helps with reliably getting one through to fire. Could probably do it with all the snapfiring lascannon, but better to have a team for it.

>>52364707
I don't really know what I want them to do. My IH force is head of the gorgon, completely mechanized. Some terminators in a land raider or spartan with autek mor or ferrus manus depending on the points, various rhino infantry, an AA dread, and some tanks.

Ah, Red Butchers, my mistake. The 2 wound Terminators with power axes and lightning claws.

Havoc launchers did nothing, since all I was firing on was vehicles the entire game. She took a hit from a quad lascannon at the start before I could go Swooping, but Cybertheurgy Rite of Eternity fixed that. From there, all she did was fly around with impunity. Having a 3+ armor save on essentially a T7 platform is great. Cybertheurgy Rite of Destruction gives you 6 haywire shots, and if you land them, you can reasonably expect a dead spartan, even a dead knight with some luck.

Well he had dozer blade and made difficult terrain, so we didn't see much issue with it. It was a matter of accurately determining where he was assaulting from.

Reminds me of images where there's a predator on top of a 3 story wall, because "the wall it just difficult terrain, so of course it can move over it."

>It was a matter of accurately determining where he was assaulting from.

How about from where the tank physically can move to without being broken apart?

I donut know how many people remember or know these Horus Heresy kitbash on GW’s from 2005.

https://web.archive.org/web/20051225095214/http://us.games-workshop.com/games/40k/spacemarines/painting/pre_heresy/2.htm

I thought it was interesting.

>>52365005
I remember that. That issue also had Dave Taylor's Custodian Guard army. Very, very different from what we got from FW.

>>52364975

So the guy cheated?

>>52365062

That's because people preserved the FEEL back then, and FW is just cranking out snowflake vehicles and units.

>>52365005
Still have that WD, still love that AL scheme.

If TS had not ambushed and had not Tzeench dickery, would they have won the battle of Prospero?

>>52364995

What, this one?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlQ2tMQzg80
Why are the drop sacs making zergy squealing noises? I get the squelchy, but why give it anything that could vocalize?

It's not quite that big, and quite a lot more technological, but put together an army of Siege Tanks, Zerglings and Overseers with Mechanicum and you have the basic concept. I was thinking more Cloudbase crossed with a Mobula, with a dash of Leviathan, a Terran battlecruiser and that. I do want to see Volkite artillery, though, since the SC tanks look slightly like volkite barrels. Statted the main guns for the Filiketos, too. S8, AP2, Deflagrate, Heavy 3 blast, 10-60" range. Two of those, obviously. If it pens something it automatically inflicts Crew Stunned instead of rolling, and units inside cannot disembark as they dislodge the fused hatches and such.

I loved that game for a year or so, left before LoTV came out.

>>52364884

Finally, something for all my random spare Domini from SC:Skitarii boxes to do. A bit of conversion should give me some decent Vulturax and Thanatar overseers. I'll have a bunch of Tervigon parts and such left over from the Castellax, I'll see what I can do.

Imperial Fists seem kind of boring to play. I know Vanilla is their flavor but...they just seem so dull now.

Even their "Legion Specific" gear is just stuff borrowed from other legions or just copies of others.

Even the Solarite Gauntlet is just borrowed from the custards.

Which WD issue

>>52365141
Mind sharing it? Or the WD issue number?

>>52365277
I didn't know about this Captain Scarlet thing, thanks.
Zerg stuff vocalize because...reasons. Perhaps it's simply the vibration of the jelly tissues and tentacles with the air that makes the sound.

Not to mention what was making the pulsing zergy sound was the music rather than the bugs themselves.

>>52365268
If Magnus took the easy way out when he wallowed in his self-pity and just kept the planetary defense systems online, nothing would have happened. Can't burn Prospero when your fleet is disintegrating.

>>52365268
Probably not because they still were outnumbered and eventually the SoS would've fucked their advantage. They could maybe get away with destroying the Wolves.

>>52365598
Maybe...but too bad Fagnus was too busy cutting himself in his tower to give a shot about his planet and people.

Well until the end...then lost to Chad Russ.

>>52365566
Yeah, probably. It was launching a drop pod, anyway. Maybe it was the bugs inside.

I'm mildly sad there's only three Tyranid players at my LGS, and two of them are newbies. I don't have enough giant bug swarms to ironically assimilate into my army.

As in Inferno, is it correct that TS units/characters can be used as either Loyalist or Traitor?

>>52364895
I bet you thought this was a lot funnier than what it really is

>>52365694
All legions can be traitor or loayal except WB who are all traitors

>>52365268
>>52365654
The super secret Natzi Germany tech present in the 40k universe is the Psychic super weapon trope.

In all instances, where pyschic and technology are combined the resulting technology is the fabled mcguffin.

Sinister Titans, the be all end all. The Thousand Sons, masters of the warp and conventional warfare. Prospero put up a damn good fight, for a singular planet sporting an under strength Legion, three independent, arms composing a form of militant police force was unable to annihilate the Legion at TWO THIRDS of its full strength.

Despite internal sabotage which rendered the vast majority of the planets orbital defenses and information gathering methods inert, the planet STILL forced what should have been a one sided annihilation into a Pyrrhic victory for the Loyalist forces.

In conclusion, the established meta of psychic technology being the end all be all in 40k is well established. Considering the after action reports as well as the initial assault went, the Thousand Sons on a proper war footing would have most likely been able to secure a costly, Pyrrhic victory for themselves.

>>52365754
Not true. The WB can be loyalists but don't have access to any of their unique shit.

Looks like, I would have told him to drive around it, terrain is the one good answer to crap like that. If he had enough movement to not need to stop in the gap, I could maybe see it, but stopping there by taking the tracks off? Nigga please.

I know of the Tempest Galleries from the Salamanders and the Dead of Ashkhelon from the Space Wolves sections.

Arkhas Fal's RG battle non-compliant huge Mechanicum lords.

The NL and IF fight against Old Night horrors, and the IH fights against AT-ATs, but those weren't necessarily Heretek though.

>>52364995
I've just realised you can get similar toys to that with their tentacles stretched out behind them for about£30. Maybe I'll grab a couple and arm them up as my Vulturax instead of a total scratchbuild, they look cool and I have a lot of spare Heavy Arc Rifles anyway.

>>52365845
>>52365911
Should have been more specific, I meant AI (Heretek Omega). Most of the Exemplary Battles are cool, with the IW being less so to me as it was an already established part of legion history (IW got shafted yet again)

>>52365960
>the IW being less so to me as it was an already established part of legion history (IW got shafted yet again)
I know!
But I can't remember true AI beyond the one at Tempest and the one the wolves fought.

>>52365984
It's fine, I'll check through the books. The Tempest Galleries is one of my favourite pieces.

Does anybody happen to know what the Autokrator's Pioneer and Tech Guard regiments are? I thought the Tech Guard was the Skitarii.

>>52366316

Tech Guard is augmented militia/pdf. Skitarii are their own thing, listed as the skitarius. It's FW's way of giving us back true skitarii over the GW abortion.

>>52366428
>The Skitarii are the armies of the Forgeworlds

Skitarii in 30k are the armies of Mars who pledge allegiance to the Fabricator-General.

>>52366428
In 30k, Skitarii are specific to Mars. They keep a presence on as many forge worlds as they can though. Post-Heresy, they become the standard on which all loyal forge worlds base their armies.

>>52366510
So, back in the day it was the Taghmata the one who represented a Forgeworld (commanded by their Synod and Prime), while the Skitarius belonged to Mars directly but "regiments" could be deployed either on their own or be assigned to local Taghmatas according to Mars' behest.
But after the Heresy it was separated in a sort-of-similar way like the Imperial Army became the Guard and the Navy aiding the local PDF, thus Skitarii regiments being assigned to Forgeworlds?

I'm I missing something?
