Marshal Wilhelm Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 honesty, integrity and purity. But Horus decided they weren't his cup of tea. Have you some book, chapter and sentence examples to joggle our brains?

Ghost Samurai Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 the main one that springs to mind was Legion, as there are several weapons mentioned as being used by the Imperial army such as some kind of pulse rifle and weapons that sounded like version of the auto rifle, i am mainly looking for hints on names and weapon types, as i am gona make the stats myself, also the horus heresy graphics book shows some of the pre heresy weapons such as the lighter and smaller version of the las cannon and a bolt fed bolter which wasn't a heavy bolter, i think this may be a storm cannon as i remember reading about such a weapon.

Hyperion Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Space marines had more access to autocannons, with terminators having reaper autocannons instead of assault cannons and twin-linked bolters instead of storm bolters. The drum-fed bolters are just a different magazine (although they look good as sternguard). Conversion beamers were more common. You can still use autoguns and autopistols for IG - they just count as lasguns now.

Ghost Samurai Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 were ther no other more esoteric or unusual weapons from this period perhaps ones that are no longer in use, i have many from my rt rule book and my collection of 2nd ed codexes but new ones seem to crop up in the new heresy books.

Justicar Valius Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Do you count jetbikes as weapons? If so they got used pre heresy but the STC was lost (Someone will find it one day and if its corrupted the ad mech will use Belial's jetbike tech to fill in the gaps) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186054-pre-heresy-weapons/#findComment-2203982 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Samurai Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 well i knew about jet bikes, have also discovered the fellblade and a whole host of fell-tanks, which were sm crewed super heavy tanks, but other than that i cant find any hard names or types.

Commander Remiel Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 The "Horus Heresy: Collected Visions" provides a lot of good examples of pre-HH SM weapons (such as what appears to be assault cannons for devastators & Fellblade). The Horus Heresy edition of the CCG as well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186054-pre-heresy-weapons/#findComment-2204242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmperorBobo Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 They used Stormbirds which have been compared as larger and less heavily armored Thunderhawks. The laser pikes from legion were used by that one guard unit, they almost remind me of the lances shining spears use but with longer range.
