  1. From the album: Icarion Insurrection - Insurrectionist Legions

    The Drowned were armoured entirely in reinforced and void-hardened Mk IV plate, a gift from the Lord of the Mechanicus, the traitor Fabricator-General Kelbor-Hal. While it was hardened in the same manner as the Mk III battle-plate that was more common in actions fought in a void or in the murky deeps. While the armour had been in development for decades, designed as a replacement for the clunky and aging suits of Mk III 'Iron' pattern armour many void specialists were forced to use, the only legion to receive a significant number of the suits were the Drowned (a benefit of their allegiance to Icarion). Included within the suits, in addition to extra mobility due to using the Mk IV chassis rather than Mk III, were numerous features specifically designed for war under the waves, such as devices referred to by the Drowned as "gills" which enabled the suits to extract breathable oxygen from the water around them when activated and, although a major drain on power, this would allow the Drowned to fight for longer in an underwater environment.

  3. So according to the GW site, a small number of Chapters still possess the ability to manufacture Mk IV plate. I would assume the same is true of other models (ie: Raven Guard at least must be manufacturing Mk VI). Now this thought just occurred to me; if you can manufacture Mk VII, why wouldn't you be able to make any other type? I can understand Mk VI being a problem because it in the Deathwatch RPG it had something about Corvus being really well-fitting, suggesting it might require a much higher degree of precision, but what about the others? Is Maximus actually superior to Aquila? Or is it just that it is made using techniques and materials that are now obscure compared to the modern standards? I'm interested in what you all think.
  4. It seems to me, both in GW and Forgeworld, the iconic Mk VI "Corvus" plate gets the short end of the stick. Corvus Plate, in case anyone isn't aware, was the original Power Armour designed for 40K. Waaaaay back in 1st Edition all power armour was Mk VI (albeit a much smaller and more basic design to what we have now). Then late 1st / early 2nd Mk VII became the norm and Mk VI faded away, with only the helmet surviving. Over the years, Corvus has made a bit of a comeback; each Edition has added more Corvus themed parts to the standard range, with the modern tactical squads now having enough parts to make at least one full Corvus Marine, even adding the proper Mk VI chest plate and fully smooth right shoulder. Forgeworld released "Legion Mk VI armour" shortly after starting to produce Horus Heresy models, but these are very expensive and their range compared to other armour types is very limited. Only the Raven Guard really expanded on the range, and even then the expansion is very Legion-specific. By contrast, Mk III and Mk IV are now sold in full-squad plastic kits on GW's shelves, and upgrade kits for these ranges are widely available on Forgeworld; most of the specialist Legion kits and units are built around Mk II, III or IV armour as a baseline. So I have to ask, why doesn't GW give Corvus the love it deserves? Why haven't we seen Corvus box sets? Why doesn't Forgeworld produce more variations on Corvus plate? Is it really because there's just no demand for it compared to Mk III and IV? Or is there something else behind it?
