NemFX Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Were the lightning bolt symbols around preheresy? Or exclusively post? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/182391-night-lords-players/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 Nevermind. Found a picture. Night Lords did have lightning bolts preheresy, but the helmets were painted to look like they had skulls for faces.

Drudge Dreadnought Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I've never heard of the lightning bolts pre-heresy. They are supposed to be lightning playing across their armor, and that's definetly a chaos thing.

Brother Nihm Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 They are supposed to be lightning playing across their armor, and that's definetly a chaos thing.That was introduced in the latest Codex, before that they were been painted on, as is the terror markings on the helmets. The only thing that changed post-heresy was the addition of Chaos iconography, e.g. the 8-pointed star. Some would say Bat-helms as well, they are a product of 3rd ed. Codex Chaos however.

Lord_Caerolion Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I'm another one with the "lightning was pre-Heresy", and that it being actual lightning is fairly stupid. Also, post-Heresy Night Lords will sometimes have skulls painted on the helmet, same with pre-. It just depends on the Marine in question, and what terror markings they want to have.

Vodunius Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Some would say Bat-helms as well, they are a product of 3rd ed. Codex Chaos however. There were no minis before 3rd edition, but they were in the art the 2nd edition codex. I'd say bat helms are as fine pre-heresy as post - its derived from the legion emblem which didn't change.
