Raven Angel Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm actually surprised someone on the wikies didn't do this already and of note is that they have miss labeled Fist of Macragge and Galthalamor. on their lists. Ben Counter's use of terms in the book seamed to make it clear that he knew what he was referencing. I don't think was an error when he referenced Fist of Macragge as a Lunar Class Battleship and Galthalamor as an ancient Retribution-class battle cruiser. I think these represent different classes then Lunar and Retribution classes from BFG. Remember whole fleets would be absorbed int the Imperial Navy during the Crusade and so it is within reason that different worlds might name different classes the same or that names get recycled.

Epistolary Exander Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Iron Warriors. Stonebreaker, Battle Barge. Storm of Iron by Graham McNeill (BL). But did this ship also serve during the Great Crusade and/or Horus Heresy? Â I am not sure, I do not think the novel mentions when the vessel was created. Considering how ancient most traitor legions vessels are it is a fair assumption that the Stonebreaker took part in the Great Crusade. I can see where you are coming from for instance most if not all of the Thousand sons vessels from the Battle of the Fang would have been created after the heresy due to Magnus not withdrawing his fleet along with his legion to the Planet of Sorcerers, yet this may be clarified in later Horus Hereys novels.

Captain Semper Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 OK, I see that another site is making use of our efforts here in a copy/paste kind of way. Although no one claims ownership and this thread is meant to be read and used by those who frequent B&C and the internet in general, I think it's bad manners on their behalf not to explicitly mention us as the originators of this effort. It's even the same wording... :rolleyes: Â Regardless, we go on and as soon as the site is fully operational again, the tables will be updated. As I said the notes column will include a number of items regarding the ships and people are more than welcome to add or correct anything they feel requires correction. It is supposed to be a communit project after all! Â Keep posting! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list does have some additional info over there, which can hopefully also be used for this one. So hopefully this could become some sort of "bilateral" thing between the two forums. By the way, here two more ships from the First Expedition forum for your list! :D Resolute - Imperial Army (Therion Cohort) - Battleship - currently active (Deliverance Lost, p.453) Valediction - Word Bearers - cruiser - destroyed in Istvaan system, dragged into warp rift (Deliverance Lost, pp78-9.)

Olis Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Hopefully, we can put this little issue to bed and move on now that credit has been given - with the addition of one paragraph, the problem has been ameliorated.

malika666 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Awesome! :D If you guys would be interested, Ahriman's Aide has been working hard on getting the correct page numbers for the sources, you might want to check out the ones you've got here and update it if needed. Â What we notice is that this sort of projects and enthusiasm does influence GW/BL/FW, without us fans Forgeworld wouldn't have made the Horus Heresy models and projects.

Olis Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 That would be nice. BFG needs some attention, I think, much like a lot of the specialist games out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 The OP over there has updated the opening post, crediting B&C and you for the effort and initiating the project. Indeed - it was very decent of them to acknowledge our efforts. As I said before, people are welcome to use our list - after all that's why we're making it - and now etiqeuttte is observed! Cool. Awesome! If you guys would be interested, Ahriman's Aide has been working hard on getting the correct page numbers for the sources, you might want to check out the ones you've got here and update it if needed. Now as regards page numbers, the reason that I avoided them to this point is that I'm not sure it's the same pagination in the digital products as it is in the hard copy ones - and in order to avoid confusion I kept away from them... Now I only own the digital versions (and some old hard copies that I can't for the life of me remember where I've put them) so if someone can confirm that the pagination is identical then I'll incoroprate them (I suppose you record the first mention - no?) What we notice is that this sort of projects and enthusiasm does influence GW/BL/FW, without us fans Forgeworld wouldn't have made the Horus Heresy models and projects. Perhaps...and this might be a bit ambitious, but perhaps we can get FW do revive BFG and make some Heresy era BFG ships! Actually this might be a cool idea - the rule system of BFG is working fine - all we need is "Legendary Ships of the Heresy" model series - and all hell will break loose! In the novels even the Glorianas fight and (almost) die so yeah, there is room for innovation there FW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 On another note on Page numbers, BL has switched to a Hard-back first, Paperback next policy with the Heresy series. It might be three months in between releases, but if someone gets a paperback comes on here, finds the page number for a hardback, well they will find it on another page. Not sure what their reaction would be, but page numbers would end resulting in a subcategory like page ???(HB), page??(PB) and page ???(DC).

malika666 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Here a response from the OP over at TFE: I don't know, Laurie* asked for the page numbers and I gave them. Most of the standard book page numbers (Not Betrayal of the like) are from the paperbacks, except for those which are not out as trade paperbacks (Betrayer and Angel Exterminatus), where I used the E-book pages, which will be replaced by the paperback pages when they come out. Actually if Laurie can clean up any confusions for us, It can help with making the list. *Laurie Goulding, Submissions and HH Editor for BL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malika666 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 By the way, somebody over at The First Expedition also put up the ships he found in the Collected Visions book, some we already have, but there are some new ones as well:  I've quickly gone through Collected Visions and have some more info. I should mention that some names are in brackets this represents the fact that they're the artworks name and not necessarily the vessels name.

Captain Semper Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thx malika! Unfortunately, our tables cannot be updated for the time being. So I'm doing some covert work at the moment.

malika666 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 No problems, take your time! :)  In the meanwhile, Xisor over at the First Expedition forums has updated the list I previously posted Did a quick run-through of HH:CV using Gagoc's list. Bear in mind this is by eye. It'd probably be helpful for someone to corroborate or just outright demolish me on this. I'm already feeling apprehensive! A quick note on the Vanquisher Class: http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2011..._Battleship.jpg  There's a few unrecognised ones that fit similar profiles, I've categorised them (e.g. Type A is what I think might be the Vanquisher).

Barbaros's Sting, DG, Strike Craft (CV page 35; 376) - Sword Class Frigate.   Thousand Sons:  Ankhtowe, TS, Strike Craft (CV page 195; 398) - Unrecognised.  Sons Of Horus:  Vengeful Spirit, SoH, Flagship (CV page 35; 373) - Unregonised: Tyrant Class Cruiser or Retribution Class Battleship? (Well, it looks like it - bare armoured prow, weapons battery sides. Could be absolutely massive, anything goes!)  Word Bearers:  Kamiel, WB, Battleship (CV page 112; 395) - Unregonised: Retribution Class? Lorgar's Spite, WB, Battleship (CV page 388; 404) - Unrecognised. (Type B?) Destiny's Hand, WB (Erebus's), Battle Barge (CV page 112; 395) - Space Fleet-era Emperor Capital Ship? Balthamir's Sword, WB (CV page 285; 412) - Unrecognised. Endeavour/Dauntless Class Light Cruiser? Faith's Speed, WB, Transport Ship (CV page 132; 388) - Unrecognised.  ---  Reorganising to the ones I think look similar: Type A Vanquisher Class Battleship? Malcador's Observer (CV page 98; 380) Aratan, Capital Ship (CV page 32; 380) The Indomitable Will, DG, Capital Ship (CV page 37; 376) Erewhon, EC, Battleship (CV page 300; 384) Callidora, EC, Battle Barge (CV page 112; 396)  Type B Furious class Grand Cruiser? Gatts' Charge, WE (CV page 301; 384) Silent Fury, WE, Strike Craft (CV page 384) Lorgar's Spite, WB, Battleship (CV page 388; 404)  Now, knowing how quickly the variants balloon (renaming based on a weapons configuration change edges us towards exponential class explosion!), it'd be facile to mandate that these are all therefore the same. Similarly, where I've said 'Space Marine Battlebarge/Strike Cruiser standard' - it's really difficult to commit. That ship hull peddled by GW hasn't been, to my knowledge, given a specific name.  Some of the obvious ones hankering for an image, in my mind, are most obviously the Gloriana Class. Could that, perhaps, be the Space Marine Battle Barge 'base type'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 OK, Crimson Spectre: a SoH or a BA ship? Apparently in Collected visions it is presented as a BA ship. As I haven't read the 'Fear to Tread' but just did a quick search, it appears that Horus gave a direct order to the Crimson Spectre which implies it's a SoH vessel. But are we sure about that? Could it be that as Warmaster, he gave a direct order to one of the BA ships? I will check on the Collected visions later today to make sure but if anyone can claryfy that'll be awesome.

Kol Saresk Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 It does not clarify. All it says is Sanguinius asking which ships Horus has chosen to "remain to administrate compliance." And Horus replies with 'the Sword Argus(just 'Sword Argus') and the Crimson Spectre." As Horus was not yet Warmaster, it would be logical to assume that they are Luna Wolves vessels, but since there is no clarification, I would say that whatever source does show Legion-alliance would take priority in the verification process.

Captain Semper Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 So you're saying that since the Collected Visions identify the ship explicitly as BA it should take precedence over its implied SoH allegience in Fear To Tread... Makes sense to me. Â What others think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I would assume that like GW's policy on 40k background, the newest is "canon". Besides, Collected Visions has a lot...(understatement) of oddities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
