Yogi Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I'm guessing just after the Istavann betrayal. TFH has the Gal V-something (Argel Tal guys) wearing red before that. Do you agree? Have I missed something? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218351-when-did-the-word-bearers-start-wearing-red/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codicier Lucion Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 It's noted at the beginning of Battle of the Abyss they have just melted the original suits of armour they wore and created the red ones. So yes, directly after the Istavann Betrayal.

Rider-75 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 garro, oath of moment describes them at calth as having parts of their armour red, from what they assume to be dried gore.

Marshal Traben Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 The Gal Vorbak wore red colored power armor years before Istvaan, rest of the Word Bearers Legion probably wore red armor after the betrayal at Istvaan.
