TennisBall Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 The Dark Angels in particular have latin words around the borders of their robes and cloaks such as the Interrorgator Chaplain from Dark Vengeance and the artwork of Master Balthasar(?) fighting the Crimson Slaughter marines in the codex Is there a list of what these words are meant to be and a translation of them? So far all I've found is people wanting translations of words into latin, I'm looking for a list of the latin words that GW has used and what they mean. 'Vastatius Est' etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pueriexdeus Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Vastatius Est = Ravaging Is My favorite translator >>> http://www.translation-guide.com/free_online_translators.php?from=Latin&to=English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemid Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 An implied "he/it" in there, mind, so it's not quite as silly as it sounds, literally. May refer to something else on the cloak we can't read or to the wearer in third person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Hitchcock Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I've studied latin... it's a particular form that implicates an order, the meaning is something similar to "unleash devastation" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
