Noctus Cornix Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I'll think about it. Not exactly what I wanted or what I was looking for from the army, though I suppose its an option. At the same time, that would also just jack up the prices both pointswise and moneywise. Bluh Also, that Rite of War would deny me from taking Pride of the Legion, which is an absolute necessity. So that's completely out of the question. I'll just stick with Dreadclaws thank you.

sonofpollux Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Yeah they might get them. According to Betrayal, the catulan reavers specialised in harrowing actions and hit and run tactics, so I guess they would only take jump packs in certain situations. They may even have dedicated jump pack squads. The more I look at the Catulan Reavers the more I like them. In Betrayal there is even a picture of an predator attached to the their battle company. Well, in they were first introduced in Horus Rising, they had Jump Packs. Now, ignoring that Betrayal changed it from the Catulan Reaver squad to several Catulan Reaver squads, Forgeworld has said they are sticking to BL's fluff. So, technically the Catulan Reavers should have Jump Packs in the rules at least as an addition since they are not modeled as standard equipment. I support your idea for this, but Catulans were one squad according to BL, but if you want that. Then go at it. FOR THE WARMASTER!

GhostMalone Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Switch the dred laws for the new pods that start with a K and are a long annoying name to remember. They count as flyers and can carry dreds as a replacement to dred claws Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279883-sons-of-horus-catulan-reaver-army-idea/page/3/#findComment-3456370 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Little Horus, he has moved up in the world, even being suggested as a member of the reformed Mournival. That and in Betrayal, they have been upgraded to being several squads. Personally, I'm okay. It's better than the horror stories I heard my naivete where they had been made into a whole company, false teachings that I was more than happy to dispel. I can tolerate multiple squads. Means more to kill. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279883-sons-of-horus-catulan-reaver-army-idea/page/3/#findComment-3456488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Plus, being Abaddon's second has it's perks. "Hey, boss, mind if I take Gaulac and Veddin squads too? I really want to gut a bunch of loyalist..." "Sure, why not. Be back by midnight."

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 For that insult kage I demote you from tactical veteran to heavy support Sgt Mkay. :P So, I just stumbled across this monstrosity: http://i.imgur.com/Fp32Gn2.jpg?2 "The Legion Kharybdis Assault Claw. It arrives like Drop Pod but can fly after it lands. It is heavily armed and has a new weapon called a Vortex Melta." Is this old news that I completely missed?

FunkyMonkey Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Twin Linked Avengers bolt cannons? That's ridiculous. What's next? Dreadnoughts with jump packs? They might as well have strapped a heavy tank cannon to an aircraft and called it a day...wait...

Greyall Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 The day isn't over yet, it seems =) For example, with all the successive rumours about the grav Land Raider, I very much doubt one isn't released, at some point. Maybe when the Custodes show up in the Prospero book.

Oh and their land raiders have em too in case you were wondering :) I think the new storm eagle is gold but I would've prefered it to look more like an AC-130 with 3 different heavy weapons on the side.

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 So, with the simple fact that, for the most part, Warhammer 40,000 is dead to me, I've been looking around at what Legion to start for 30k. this seems to be a reoccuring theme! I look forward to progress.
