Jordan-096 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 anyone other than me thinking of using Dornian Heresy Loyalists in Space Marine?? Dornian Heresy games? EC, IW, DG, LW vs SW, DA, IF, WS some legions wouldnt be playable because of mutations or armour variations. eg. UM (Mk16 Armour), RG (shape shifting), TS (blind helms, crests and staffs), BA (decayed bodies and armour), WB (votive cloths and engraved armour), IH (more mechanisation than is actually possible in the game), NL (batwing stuff, lightning patterns) available legions: DA, EC, IW, WS, SW, IF, WE, DG, SA, AL Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155430-the-history-and-legacy-of-dorns-betrayal/page/29/#findComment-2872487 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a few of those legions are playable. BA are plague marines, TS are grey knights, WB are normal marines, NL are also normal marines. Just because stuff is hard to model/paint doesn't mean it can't be used.

WolfGuardVortek Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I was actually thinking that the Dornian Heresy would make a nice setting for a Deathwatch game.

blackoption Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I was actually thinking that the Dornian Heresy would make a nice setting for a Deathwatch game. I already have plans for how to do that in my game. Though I am waiting until one of my players make Watch Captain.

Valantine Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 @ Kelbor-Hal: Noooo, it's my party and I'll cry if I want to! Anyhow, I've not gamed with them yet as they are still sat on my work bench slowly, very slowly, getting painted up but my new army is a loyalist Emperror's Children army. Once that is done I'm quite interested in doing a Nurgle Blood Angels army: LOVE the dornian heresy, really adds a new feel for the original legions!

ZeitgeistGlee Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I'm guessing the Night Lords are going to end up with something similar to the Black Rage after Konrad's death at Dorn's hands, given the former's psychic abilities. Can we assume Konrad of this universe was more Curze than Night Haunter ? Either way I can't wait to read the piece.

Culebras Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I'm thinking something more original than just a Black Rage repeat. So far, the legions have been distinctly different. The nurgle blood angels dont sound like Death Guard Nurgle, the white scar Slanesh are different than the Emperor's Children Slanesh. I don't think there is any reason to suppose that the Night Lords will be like anything we have encountered before (here is to hoping). I would love to see what the split point Aurelius choose to diverge the normal verse history from the Dorn version as those moments are often the key to the whole chapter.

Nomus Sardauk Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Greetings and salutations brother Aurelius! I have a query, if I may be allowed to pick your brain for a moment. I apologise if this has already been asked, but will we see any mention of the Soul Drinkers in the Imperial Fists IA, perhaps as disciples of the Tzeentch daemon from the novels?

I would love to see what the split point Aurelius choose to diverge the normal verse history from the Dorn version as those moments are often the key to the whole chapter. But how far can you split them before they stop being recongizable as the Night Lords we love and adore (or fear and hate)? Aurelius has a fine line to walk on this one topic. Fortunately he has shown himself easily capable of this task. Of all the Dorn-verse legions, I see the Nightlords being the closest to norm-verse. Although except this time they need not scavenge nor steal to get what they need. Without sounding to much like a DC comic, I can see the Night lords having some of the most unorthodox equipment of all the legions. My own personal guest is that the degredation of the Night Lords legion (via recruiting criminals) was dealt with somehow. I expect the Night Lords to be some of the most ruthless, yet disciplined marines the loyalist legions still have. They might pride themselves in being able to do and sacrifice what other legions won't, in memory of their primarch. Forgive the idle speculation but perhaps the red gauntlet signifies Marines knowing they are on a suicide mission, but step forth to accomplish the needed task ala their primarch?

Aurelius Rex Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Thanks for the continued interest and patience with this - I was busy working on the Night Lord article (when I could escape from family and gardening duties) and didn't see the posts of the last few days. Very briefly, and hopefully not giving too much away, their primarch may have met a Sanguinius-like end at the hands of the Heresy's big bad guy, but the Night Lords won't be getting any black ragey psychic feedback issues. ;) They will still be objects of absolute dread, even for the average Imperial citizen, and are still plagued with terrible visions of the worst possible fate... It just depends what they do with that knowledge. ;) Regarding the Soul Drinkers, no plans as yet to namecheck them, as I suspect that the Imperial Fists / Black Legion IA will contain so much stuff that they would lose out to what I suspect will have to be a pretty brutal editing process! There! And I didn't even have to give an opinion either way on the author of the novels trying to crowbar the Soul Drinkers into the second founding. :D Oh, and to keep people updated of when the next article is nearly ready I will flag it in the second subject line of this topic a week or so beforehand. Back to work! Aurelius. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155430-the-history-and-legacy-of-dorns-betrayal/page/29/#findComment-2885408 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanius Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Quick question before I explode from sheer excitement: will the Night Lords still have Screaming Sculpture drop pods in the DH side of things?
