soddinnutter Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 God description. An AI that fits into the pre-established fluff. If only barely. Have you ever read the books Redemption Ark and Absolution Gap? If you have not then please do so, Your ship sounds just like the Nostalgia for Infinity/John Brannigan. It's not so much a machine as an organism made of metal.

Omega Striker Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 YAY more time! Thanks, soddy, I will have to look into those books. They may help me further flesh out one of the three things that may get my chapter excomm'd. And now, on to Sub Sector Agarial! I will do this simply, giving a brief overview of the sub-sector, and then going over the 8 inhabitable planets. The sub sector is located in Segmentum Ultima, sector Agarial, along the Centarus Arm, in the eastern fringes of the galaxy. They are set in the neat triangle made by the Tau Empire, craftworld Alaitoc, and the dead world Berein in THIS MAP. This puts them relatively close to the realm of the Ultramarines, the Tau, splinters from Hive Fleets, the Eldar from the craftworld, and the ever present Orks. There has not been much presence of chaos, necrons, or dark eldar in the 300 years the chapter has been stationed there. On to the inhabited planets! The Forge World: Relexian The seat of a Titan Legion (Omnissaria - Hymn of the Machine God) and is production grade Extremis-IV. It produces virtually anything a forge world can, being somewhat isolated and far from regular galactic "foot traffic". Self-sufficiency is a pride that these Magos wear, using several nearby dead worlds as strip-mining bases to provide all the material necessary to keep the forge world running. It is also a base of operations for an Explorator fleet that searches the eastern fringes for Xenos tech, lost Dark Age tech, and any STC's that may be around. The Explorator fleet is currently docked and refueling/resupplying before it's next 50 year search cycle begins. The planet is well defended, the Explorator Fleet aside. Mines, orbital defenses, and other precautions have been taken, because Relexian is so far from the next nearest Forge world. Figures of Note: Arch-Magos Fabricator Kendan Faust - AdMech leader on Relexian. Oversees production. Has a good relationship with the Adamantium Dragons, stemming from repulsed Ork invasion of planet, as well as recovery efforts and bartering of services. Huge fan of the 'vision coolant', has petitioned Mars for permission to incorporate it into production systems. Relationship with Dragons: excellent. Arch-Magos Explorator Agrimineis Jorstan - Leader of Explorator Fleet. Continues search for tech zealously. Extremely interested in 'vision coolant' from the Dragons. Suspects Dragons of possible tech-heresy, is watching closely. Very protective of the artifacts fleet has found so far. Relationship with Dragons: poor, suspicious. The Agriculture Worlds: Gaboros and Dal Two planets almost perfectly suited for food production, Gaboros' excellent climate and solar system position makes it ideal for growing grains and vegetables to feed the sub-sector, while Dal is a mostly-aquatic world with an abundance of marine animals suited to human consupmtion, and a few small continents useful for ranching imported livestock. Together, they produce a large amount of foodstuffs, more than the sub-sector needs. Some goes in the direction of Ultramar, others go around to neighboring inhabited systems outside the sub-sector. The large biomass of both planets has been noticed, and careful vigilance is kept for genestealer activity and possible hive fleet attack, which could starve the sub-sector and beyond. Gaboros is a former Eldar garden world that was purged and remade into a agriculture world. The Eldar are slow to forget and slower to forgive. Figures of Note: None, but the hardy lifestyle on both planets means there is a small chance that the populace could contribute suitable initiates for the Dragons. None have been found yet, but a careful watch is being kept. The Civilized Worlds: Helia and Romast The civilized planets are home to the local Convent Militant of the Ecclisiarchy (located on Helia) and the Sector Command of the Imperial Guard (Romast). Both pay tithes in the form of conscripts, trained to fight and protect on the frontier. Both are well suited to being fortified, being mountainous. The local PDF and IG regiments undergo joint training with the Dragons from time to time. The sisters keep a little more distance, due to the Dragons' worship of the Emperor in his Machine God aspect. Everything is polite, but some just grind on other's nerves, although the local canoness has fought with the Dragons during the same Ork invasion that attacked the Forge World, and has great respect for the 3rd company captain (bit of a 'bolter crush' really). The Lord General has a great respect for the Dragons, having seen their battle prowess personally. Figures of Note: Canoness Barta Glaine, Order of the Bloody Rose - has fought with the Dragons, and has witnessed their war-fury (particularly 3rd Captain) but still feels uneasy with the unorthodox (from her point of view) chapter cult. Relationship with Dragons: neutral High Lord General Argonal Priekt, Sector Command - in charge of the IG for the sector, although truth be told, there is not much outside the sub-sector. The sub-sector is a recent colonization, a mere 1500 years old, so things are relatively tame. His main concern is fortifying the sub sector, as most of the planets are naked to the galaxy's innumerable evils. Construction of planetary defenses, as well as training of 8 separate PDF's is time and resource consuming, but the High Lord General sees himself up to the task. Relationship with Dragons: good The Recruiting Worlds: Alargos and Brak The two worlds most of the initiates in the Adamantium Dragons come from, the death world Alargos and the feudal world Brak. Both have very hostile environments, although Alargos's is natural and Brak's hostility is drawn from the political landscape. Alargos has many predators and poisonous creatures, as well as a climate that requires tough inhabitants. Brak is different, because it's high death rate comes from political maneuverings and assassinations. It's own people make for excellent recruits because of the emphasis on self-sufficiency, secrecy, and skill. Competition is fierce on both worlds, and so the chapter draws heavily from there. Persons of Note: none, but the populace sees the space marines as a way to escape from their pitiful lives, kind of like retirement. They all are well aware of the space marines, and see being selected to be an initiate as a retirement from their woes. The chapter recruiters quickly disabuse them of that particular notion, although the desire to be recruited remains high. Relationship with Dragons: very high The Hive World: Yantaral This is the world first colonized by the Imperium back in 560.M38. The larges population, some 125 billion, are contained in the planets 4 hab-spires and numerous hab-blocks around the world. Food is imported from the ag-worlds, and the PDF and IG recruit most heavily from here. The orbital docks are second best, being behind the forge worlds, so the Chapter Fleet is stationed here is whole or in part most of the time. Currently the dockyards of Relexian are holding the Explorator Fleet, so the Chapter has been bumped here. It is also home to the Sector Inquisition Office, and the Ordo Assassination offices. The Inquisition is moderately suspicious of the Chapter, mostly because of the high level of augmentation and the secrecy. Some think that the Chapter just prefers it's autonomy, but there is one Inquisitor who believes otherwise. The Xenos inquisitor suspects the Dragon's plasma coolant as either a Tau or Eldar derived heresy, and is searching for proof. They use all Mars-pattern designs, and the only deviation from that is a Land Raider that still stays well within acceptable parameters. Figures of Note: Inquisitor Corsavis, Departmentum Xenos - doesn't like the Dragons, not one bit. Thankfully there are two other inquisitors in the system who see reason/are letting the xenos infect them. Disagreements are hotly debated, but the Hereticus and Malleum Inquisitors are not convinced. Relationsip with Dragons: very poor. Well, there you have it, a names and places breakdown of the sub-sector. Have fun, and comment away!

It's too dangerous to put them anywhere else. Disagreements are hotly debated, but the Hereticus and Malleum Inquisitors are not convinced. Relationsip with Dragons: very poor. The Ordos Hereticus and Malleus would have no jurisdiction in matters of xenos tech, and as such, could not stop the Inquisitor.

Omega Striker Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 What exactly is Extremis-IV?Xenos tech is normally viewed as heretical, and purged in a self-righteous burst of fury. They wouldn't be searching for it. Only a 50 year cycle? Relexian keeps making me think of Relaxian... :rolleyes: Um, Extremis is the third highest production category for a forge world, right? I was guessing from http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Production_Grade, but that doesn't give the chart that I found there. Dang. Well, I thought it was that production grades were the six categories of production, and there were six sub-categories, designated by roman numerals, but now I can't find where that was. I thought it was Lexicanum, but I am gonna have to search more now. Hmmm. Extremis-IV was supposed to be third category, fourth sub-category, making it a 'level 16 out of 36 levels' of production, somewhere in the upper-middle region of production, enough to keep a sector and chapter fleet in tip top shape, and then some. Not Maximus-I, the highest in both category and sub-category (also, Mars' production grade). I was under the assumption that the Xenos tech was hunted down by Explorator fleets and brought back to Mars or wherever for study. I can change that. Should I? 50 was a number I pulled out of my a--. What should I put in place of it? It's kind of like relaxin', BUT IT'S NOT! :D What do you think of all the planetary names? Good? Bad? Original, yet gothic enough to pass for W40K planet names is what I was going for. I still don't like vision coolant. Sorry? Um, what could I do to show my diehard plasma fanboy self through my chapter, instead? I don't know what to do with negative criticism, so suggest away. This might be something I just have to ask you to swallow, because I don't know of anything else (STC already being over the top). If he's looking for heretical tech himself, why would he view them as heretical? ;) As above, I thought it was the Explorator's job to do, and they jealously guard their holy techno-relics, right? The Arch-Magos can do it because his god asked him to, but his god also said that he should not let others do this. Am I right? Ultramar is self-sufficient. It doesn't need food. Okay. Connsider it retcon'd. Just to the surrounding sectors now. Why haven't the Eldar brutally massacred the population yet? Do they usually do that? Ummm..... because they are too busy? Maybe they have tried, and that's why the chapter fights with the Eldar. In 300 years of searching? Is that too small? Too large? WHAT???? Suggest a number instead, please. I'm a noob that doesn't know the obvious answer, bro. Most marines view the Emperor as a great man, but not a god, so this shouldn't be too strange to her. So it's okay? Cool. I was thinking the machine god might be a little more distasteful, but that is more of a chapter secret than open knowledge anyways. Okay. Still, I want the Ecclisiarchy to be neutral relation with the chatper, just have one notable who kind of likes a captain. Why isn't sector command here? Also, most Forge Worlds are AdMech territory, and as such, wouldn't be a "homeworld", so to speak, for a chapter. They aren't the homeworld, they are just the nicest docks in the sub-sector. The chapter frequently docks there, but now the Explorators are there, so they get to use the hive world docks instead. It's a 'let's keep our crap in tip-top shape' thing, not a homeworld thing. Sector command came later. The lord general who came to establish sector command didn't like the hive world, so he chose a nearby world with much better, mountainous, defend-able terrain. The hive world is largely flat empty plains, with a smooth, level bedrock, the only planet ideal for hab spires and such in the sub-sector. The Officio Assassinorum is located on Terra and only Terra. It's too dangerous to put them anywhere else. 'Kay. Could I make the assassins part of the inquisitorial retinue for the handful of inquisitors? The Ordos Hereticus and Malleus would have no jurisdiction in matters of xenos tech, and as such, could not stop the Inquisitor. Since the Eldar and other xenos are so close, can I make it so that several Xenos inquisitors are there, and they disagree with the noted one? Thanks for the help and guidance, and will these changes work?

As long as you have a reason. :rolleyes: I was under the assumption that the Xenos tech was hunted down by Explorator fleets and brought back to Mars or wherever for study. I can change that. Should I? They're trying to find archeotech and STC's. Shouldn't be too hard to change. 50 was a number I pulled out of my a--. What should I put in place of it? I'd say a century or two. Tech-Priests can go for a looong time. It's kind of like relaxin', BUT IT'S NOT! :D What do you think of all the planetary names? Good? Bad? Original, yet gothic enough to pass for W40K planet names is what I was going for. They seem fine to me. Sorry? Um, what could I do to show my diehard plasma fanboy self through my chapter, instead? I don't know what to do with negative criticism, so suggest away. This might be something I just have to ask you to swallow, because I don't know of anything else (STC already being over the top). Look a couple of posts up. I explained that there. As above, I thought it was the Explorator's job to do, and they jealously guard their holy techno-relics, right? The Arch-Magos can do it because his god asked him to, but his god also said that he should not let others do this. Am I right? Just change it to archeotech and STC's, and he should be fine. Do they usually do that? Ummm..... because they are too busy? Maybe they have tried, and that's why the chapter fights with the Eldar. Yes, when an Exodite or Maiden World is occupied. This gives you an excuse to include more of your chapter's battles and fluff. Is that too small? Too large? WHAT???? Suggest a number instead, please. I'm a noob that doesn't know the obvious answer, bro. You could probably include a few recruits being found. So it's okay? Cool. I was thinking the machine god might be a little more distasteful, but that is more of a chapter secret than open knowledge anyways. Okay. Still, I want the Ecclisiarchy to be neutral relation with the chatper, just have one notable who kind of likes a captain. The Ecclesiarchy tends to be neutral or moderately hostile to many chapters, so you're well within your rights to make them so. They aren't the homeworld, they are just the nicest docks in the sub-sector. The chapter frequently docks there, but now the Explorators are there, so they get to use the hive world docks instead. It's a 'let's keep our crap in tip-top shape' thing, not a homeworld thing. Ah, that makes sense. I guess I misunderstood. Sector command came later. The lord general who came to establish sector command didn't like the hive world, so he chose a nearby world with much better, mountainous, defend-able terrain. The hive world is largely flat empty plains, with a smooth, level bedrock, the only planet ideal for hab spires and such in the sub-sector. Alright, sounds good. 'Kay. Could I make the assassins part of the inquisitorial retinue for the handful of inquisitors? Assassins are a rare and highly valued resource, only ever lent out to inquisitors for a temporary period, and then only after a request is reviewed and approved by the Master of Assassins. So no. Since the Eldar and other xenos are so close, can I make it so that several Xenos inquisitors are there, and they disagree with the noted one? Safety in numbers, eh? I'd say you could, as long as it's not a critical part of your chapter's fluff.

Omega Striker Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 Okay, so I have plenty of material to work with, and quite a bit of information and learning has occured. I will now turn to the biggest thing keeping me from posting the actual IA.....formating. I have never been a forum colorsmith, or size smith, or head-bar-title-banner-thing smith. I am going to play around with some finished IA's and see how they look, and re-post different things and summarize and logicize and cogitate and I will try to get an official official outline going. In the meantime, what other IA's can I look at to get a good idea for mine, as far as layout and color and such? Oh, and I am going to play around with the chapter color painter and get a scheme uploaded soon, too. May the Emperor protect, brothers!

Omega Striker Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Behold! An Adamantium Dragon in all his glory! A couple things of note: The gold trim on the shoulders, belt, helmet crown, right knee, wings, skull, and gorget indicate a veteran marine that has participated in several campaigns. The chapter color is gunmetal grey, with the teal on the gut tubes and backpack being the color of the plasma coolant stored in the marines' augmentations. This Marine would have the Chapter symbol on the left shoulder pad and his company symbol on the right (he is first company, so veteran laurels and a crux terminatus with dragon's teeth around pointing outward). How did I do for a first time paint job? This will be the last thing before I write up the actual IA article. I will probably get around to that on Thursday or something. How would I go about making a chapter symbol like I see on so many other IA's? Does that require major image editing software? EDIT: I added a Terminator scheme just for the visual awesomeness! I did much of the same, and it turned out pretty good. What do you all think? Should these be on the IA itself?

Omega Striker Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 You betcha!! They are a good fleet based chapter, so they can do whatever, AND there is a sufficient enough reason to treat them as excommunicatus if they need more traitor legions. It's all good, really. There is also sufficient reason to explain being allies with just about any order force on the tabletop (Tau, Eldar, IG, SoB, GK, etc) I actually really like where this all ended up. This is an awesome chapter, way better than what I had in my head when I started. I guess I can directly thank you, Chapter Master Ignis Domus, for helping out so much.

Omega Striker Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 AwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwWWWWWWWWWWWWW CRAP!!!! I just watched Tron Legacy for the first time ever, and now I feel an undying urge to redo some of this chapter. I think I am going to have to change a little bit about the beliefs and the look of the chapter, but now there will be glowing lights on everything and I will paint in black and neon. I guess it's not that big a change, so no bog deal. I will play around with the painter and see what I can do.

Omega Striker Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 Sorry, this is more of a rambling creation thread. I am going to need about three hours of solid IA making time before I can do that, and I will need a new thread to do that, so your wish is granted. I just cant seem to settle on what of all the content I should include. EDIT: Does anybody oppose the name Energy Dragons? It fit's the chapter better than adamantium, which is a bit of a tongue-teaser. Also, I am changing them to third-generation Salamanders gene-seed. What is a good second-generation Sallies chapter to choose from for a 14th founding chapter?

soddinnutter Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Possible 2nd Generation Salamanders are the Storm Giants. Energy Dragons sounds really, really not good. All I can think of when i hear it is the advert for Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator with the line '...Kick her in the face with your Energy Legs...' Thant and it sounds like Power Rangers monster of the week and so should be killed with the purifying light of nuclear fusion flame. For names how about Iron Dragons, Brass Dragons, Slood* Dragons, Bronze Dragons, Fire Dragons, Hell's Dragons, Legio Draconis... etc But not, please, please not 'Energy Dragons'. It sounds like something Matt Ward would think up. Maybe it could be a fluffing out of this name-tag http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Dragon_Lords * Slood: Easier to discover than fire but slightly harder than water. extremely useful and versatile substance that is, regrettably, not found in every universe. Pity as well; it makes a great industrial coolant, for all that is is mildly carcinogenic.

Omega Striker Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 ooooooh.... I like Legio Draconis.......hmmmmm..... So I guess we are back to the name. Hmmmm.... There are several things I want my chapter to revolve around, so you can choose from any of these themes: plasma weapons cybernetics/augmentation everyone's a tech-adept, love to tinker with their wargear/vehicles/weapons/etc fleet based chapter focus on piety, no 'personal heraldry' lengthy crusades color scheme like that of Tron Legacy, check it out here. I am going back to the DIY guides and read up about names for a while. I hope someone somewhere can come up with something good, because this sucks.

Omega Striker Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Okay, I have been shooting names back and forth with the other marine players at the store, and we came to the conclusion that Void Dragons was cool, but then a necron player brought up the fact that that was one of the Necron gods. So, I switched it around, and Dragons of the Void sounds pretty sweet to me. Dragons in the void between stars, which is cool because that is where they camp out sometimes. With the fascination they have for technology, maybe a few necron/marine conversions are in order? I was going to do some tau/marine conversions, but necron/marine sounds cooler. It will just cost me more. Anyways, I will start working on updating the IA again, as I have a few minutes now.

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 The name sounds good, though it's not Purifiers. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228048-a-new-chapter-from-the-26th-founding-a-diy-wip/page/2/#findComment-2752727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
