BattleBrotherJohn Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Wondering if anyone can help with a couple of questions I have regarding Sigismund . What company did he command during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy before he became the Emperors Champion ? Did the troops Sigismund commanded adopt his black armour/heraldry ( making them proto-Black Templars ? ) or did they retain the Imperial Fist yellow armour ?

Marshal Rohr Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Sigismund was 1st Captain of the Legion. His personal heraldry was black and white. His armor was gold until he adopted the role of EC. The first company was also gold. Dorn adopted black in mourning during the scouring.

Chaplain ChonkE Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 It should be noted in a BL novel (Helsreach) that a statue of Dorn showed his armor to have the Maltese cross on the front. Whether this icon was present before or after the Emperor's death is unknown.

Cpt. Lacerus Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I would like to add another question to the Op's if no one minds. What happen to the great Sigismund? How did he die?

Marshal Rohr Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Sigismund isn't dead. He's crusading far away. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224212-sigismund-of-the-imperial-fists/#findComment-2680925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Lacerus Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Aww M2C, is that what Helbrecht tells you every night as you cry yourself to sleep because Sigismund was secretly a Psyker? -_- Captain Lacerus P.S. I KNEW you were going to be the first to reply haha!

A D-B Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 It should be noted in a BL novel (Helsreach) that a statue of Dorn showed his armor to have the Maltese cross on the front. Whether this icon was present before or after the Emperor's death is unknown. Narratively, it was a nod to the successor Chapter in question. In actuality, I wanted to do it as a frontloading thing for the Horus Heresy series. I sort of have a scene in mind, for when Dorn makes Sigismund the Emperor's Champion. I may never get 'round to doing it, but it was a nod towards the scene I have in my mind.

Dinks Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Sounds interesting, i hope you manage to get to write that scene! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224212-sigismund-of-the-imperial-fists/#findComment-2680978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain ChonkE Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Oh by the Emperor it would be a tasty day in Templar Town if this would be done!

Marshal Rohr Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 A D-B was it anything like the one I did for the GC contest? I tried to write it in a manner stylistically like your 'knighting' ceremony in Helsreach.
