Demus Ragnok Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I believe there is only one mention of the Saturnine pattern TDA, but do you all think we will ever see any models in this pattern.

Kol Saresk Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Possibly. Might be a couple of books, but it seems like Forgeworld isn't against making multiple models so long as there's a customer base for it.

Conn Eremon Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Sorry, making the inference that production might have started, but the whole Heresy thing puts an immediate stop to it. i.e. Martian terrain that has broken, cast aside Saturnine armour being the only appearance in model form. Â Not from a source, just musing aloud in what I would find funny.

Greyall Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I think it'll see production, eventually. I'd never heard of it, seems like a way for Forgeworld to both provide lore and anticipate any future ideas for a new TDA. If they don't do it: "Lost to the Ages!!". If they do: "Behold, wallets of the World! Your doom." Â Really can't see why they'd miss the chance of creating a new Terminator Armour. There are old minis to revamp, for instance, but they've proven capable of coming up with amazing new ones - look at the new designs the Sons of Horus Reavers have.

Laborious Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I thought people were fairly confident Saturnine is just a name being given to the pattern 40k Grey Knights are wearing, rather than something new?

Greyall Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 FW states Saturnine as existing alongside Cataphractii, Tartaros and Indomitable at the time of the heresy, so I wouldn't count on it being the Grey Knight Termies' armour, I assume that model comes later in time.. Â On the other hand, if it is the Grey Knights' armour and existed during the Heresy, we might start seeing Legions wearing GK Termie armour, which sounds awesome.

blackoption Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I was thinking Saturine was the GK terminator armor... well, because Titan orbits Saturn....

Kol Saresk Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Maybe. It is a logical deduction. Titan may have been the origin of manufacturing so when it disappeared in the warp for one thousand years(a la C: GK), it may have become an endangered MK except for what the GK pumped out during their one thousand years of "Look at the pretty stars."

Oiad Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Aegis is the power armor, not the TDA. That pattern is currently not named. Â 'The Aegis' is a type of protection system using psycho-reactive materials that is uniquely modified into all Grey Knight armour, including Terminator armour. It amplifies the Grey Knight's psychic powers in a manner that allows them to protect themselves against harm from warp-based attacks and operate freely in hostile environments where the warp has spurged over into realspace. Â As for Saturnine Terminator armour, no idea. Though I'm very interested to learn more about it...

Kol Saresk Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I can't find anything that says the Terminator version has it, just the Power Armor and the Dreadnoughts. Although if the Dreadnoughts have it, then it isn't too much of a stretch. And I can find the GK's PA being called the aegis pattern, most likely because it is the only pattern to use the Aegis device. I merely said that the GK's Terminator armor has no designation because I cannot find a designation. It's just called "Grey Knights Terminator Armor". Doesn't it doesn't have the Aegis device, just that it isn't called "Aegis Pattern Tactical Dreadnought Armor". Or rather, hasn't been called that. At least, not in anything I can find.

Adra'Melek Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Saturnine is mentioned as being basically the same as Tartaros, Indomitable, etc so don't expect fancy rules. It'll be nice if they had a few different versions just for aesthetics.

It'll be nice if they had a few different versions just for aesthetics. Which is another reason I was thinking it was the GK terminator armor. Cosmetically it is different from the Indomitable and Tartaros, but the rules for them are the exact same.  There is a 5th type of terminator pattern named (past the Cataphracti, Indomitable, Tartaros, and Saturine) that is also mentioned to be a rare and ancient pattern: Arkonak. I am curious as to what these might look like.

Cactus Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I'd be so happy if Forge World made a version of that, regardless of whether it has special rules.

Arkonak is mentioned in IA 12 as it talks about how well equipped the Minotaurs are. As an example of Minotaur affluence is that they extensive numbers of terminator suits (probably enough for their entire first company) and that they can field rare patterns such as the Tartaros and Arkonak Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279107-saturnine-terminator-armor/#findComment-3439631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
