Warband Call


Recommended Posts

Hi! I see all kinds of minis on here but it's hard to discern what splinter group of the Thousand Sons (or Tzeentch renegades for that matter) everyone belongs to.

 

So speak up, you guys. If you play Chaos and only have a single unit of Thousand Sons in your army, who are they loyal to? Magnus the Red? Ahriman? Your own chapter?

 

I had an idea- We could come back later in the year and edit our posts to change our entries accordingly when the new book comes out (should you stick with Tzeentch)

 

Warband: Thousand Sons Exiled Coven

Commander: Ahriman

Flagship: Inevitable Fortress

Strength: ~20 Sorcerers, ~50 Rubricae, ~100 crew, assorted ground transports

Last Known Location: Sol System

Warband: Thousand Sons Exile coven

Commander: Ahriman (as well! I always knew he could be at more than one place at the same time)

Flagship: uhm...

Strength: ~7 sorcerors, ~ 27 rubrics, some vehicles.

Last known position: some cold, rocky place.

 

I don't really have a lot painted up yet, and as such, for now, it's just a really small and elite strike force. But an important one, judging by the one who leads it...

Warband: Exiled Thousand Sons, "the 7 company"

Commander: Zarathustra Suicune, former High Apothecary of the Thousand Sons, acting head of the Athanaean cult (Since it is unsure how much the cults are kept by the rest of the legion, and so the old/regular selection of a new magister Templi has not occurred since Ulthizzar's murder.)

Flagship: Anubis class battle barge "The Phoenix of Prospero"

Force strength: 13 Sorcerers, 7 Apprentice sorcerers, 52 rubrics (Including bike mounted and terminator armored), 2 Predators "Memory of Ra" and "Dawn of unity", 2 rhinos, 2 thunderhawks and one stormbird. Dreadnought Sobekemenes, Contempor Dreadnought Wepwawet. Aprox 100 spireguard to regiment size, Aprox 30 Beastman soldiers

Last seen: Gryphonne system.

Interesting notes: The gardens aboard the Pheonix were initially created by Ra-hotepis, her first captain, and Magister Templi of the Athanaeans before Ulthizzar, and include a complete range of prosperonain plant life and extensive additions from throughout the galaxy including Fenrisian pine and prandium Dusk flowers among others. The spire guard and are descended from the original crew and spireguard, and it is believed that Zarathustra plans to someday rebuild Prospero.

Zarathustra refuses to fight marines of the Salamanders legion, due to a life debt he owed the Salamander captain V'senner, who saved him from an ork killa can during his secondment to that legion.

Warband: The Cabal of the Burning Wings

Commander: Icarus the Changer (Ascended Daemon Prince, former Sorcerer-Captain of the Thousand Sons)

Flagship: Ghost of Prospero (Repulsive class Grand Cruiser

Strength: Of the Legion: ~8 Sorcerers, ~40 Rubricae, various Legion support assets, various Fleet assets

Others: The Renegade Chapter "Fallen Lords", assorted Traitor Guard regiments and corrupted Inquisitiorial agents

(Of his agents, some are truely corrupted and know they serve a darker master - like the renegade Inquisitor Narcissus, whilst some don't know who their mysterious benefactor really is other than the "ultimate xanthite" he claims to be and some still work to his purposes without ever realising they are following his dark will...)

Last Known Location: Near the Maelstrom

 

 

None save Icarus himself (and Tzeentch, of course) know his true agenda but over the millennia since the Heresy he has spread a web of agents across the Imperium to serve whatever arcane purpose he is conspiring to achieve. Originally part of the cabal with Ahriman who unleashed the Rubric, he has since become considered something of an outcast by many of his brethren for his unusual philosophising on the powers of Tzeentch, sorcery and what he calls the "presience trap". Of course, his Ascension to Daemonhood suggests that whatever Icarus has planned must be favoured by Tzeentch, or at least Icarus is a pawn in a far larger game...

Warband: Order of Dusk

Commander: Magistra Aeronwy

Loyalty: Ahriman

Flagship: Mars Cruiser Arial

Forces: 6 Sorcerers including Aeronwy, 18 Armour Wraiths (Rubrics), Land Raider Redemption through Adaptation, 20 Weregild Ork Mercenaries (Plague Marines), 15 Weregild Kroot Mercenaries (Chaos Marines) including 5 Vultures (Raptors).

Fleet assets: 3 Light Cruisers, 20 Escorts

Last Seen: Patrolling Eldritch system in Ultima Segmentum Ultra, halfway between the fringes of Tau space and The Dark Maw.

 

Aeronwy Gesh holds the title of Magistra, ruling from the third planet in the Eldritch system over all four habitable planets. Her fortress-monastary was once a stronghold of the Sisters of Battle, but they are long gone, destroyed by her magic and treachery. A disciple of Ahriman himself, she understands the purpose for which her master groomed her - Eldritch serves as a repository and safehouse for the Librarian, somewhere to rest and recuperate in times of need. Recently, however, it has come under attack from the Necrons of the Tiankong Dynasty, and Ahriman himself is nowhere in sight...
