Spacefrisian Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Begining of a new chapter. As its more for fun i intend to break 1 of those dont rules eg being one of the missing Legions. (i dont realy care what some might say about it its after all my chapter and this was GW intention all along. (as some resources say)) Chapter Name: -Star Paladins Founding: -1st Symbol: -Shield with imperial aquila on it (aquila wa added after the HH event) Colour scheme Quite simple but i intend to work heavy on the loos of the armour instead of colours (model wise). More to come. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/212029-new-chapter-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrata Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 1st Founding Chapters seem to becoming popular... Protectorate of Terra The problem with this, and I am guessing the proposed theme from this name, is that the Imperial Fists are already the Protectorates of Terra. It is their fortress on the homeworld of mankind, it was their primarch who was granted the right and the duty to protect it - making him the Protectorate. Also, this name seems out of sync with the other Legions who mainly took up names based upon their primarchs up-bringing. Plus, there isn't a single something of something Legion (until the Lunar Wolves became the Sons of Horus) - maybe the two missing chapters got erased because their names didn't fit the bill.

Protector... A Protectorate is something under the protection of, mostly states. The Crimean Khanate was for example, a Protectorate of the OttomanEmpire. In this sense, the Chapter is under the protection of Terra. Even then, an organization doesn't work; like I said, mostly nations are called Protectorates. Well, so far, I have to go with the idea that tying it to Terra is a bad idea, that is Dorn's duty after all. Otherwise, there's not much to say. EDIT: Sorry for the poor grammar, I'm not feeling very articulate today.

Ferrata Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 The model will get more replies over in PC&A. As for the background, I have to say nothing is really saying that they need to be a 1st Founder or even that they are interesting enough.
