recon0321 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Any there different stats depending on which armor MK you field in 30k? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Excepting Cataphractii Terminator Plate, no sir. Edit: And Legion specific Terminator plate. Each is supposed to get different rules.

recon0321 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Is the cataphractii plate the only terminator in the HH books Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Um... -ish? Ruleswise, there's Terminator Armour, then Cataphractii as an upgrade (Which it specifically states you must model appropriately). Beyond that, there's specific rules for certain unique Terminator suits (Like the Iron Hands).

BassWave Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 So indomitable pattern was around then? Same with Tartaros? Yes. Which I dislike a lot. Not only is having Indomitus mark terminator armor around in 30k like having Mk 7 armor during the crusade, its such an ugly suit too. Tartoros and Cataphractii are where its at! Wish they would release Saturnine armor so we'd know what that looked like.

BassWave Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Its a type of terminator armor that's mentioned a couple times in Forge World's Horus Heresy books. There aren't any images of it. However, considering that Forge World likes to modernize old Rogue Trader models, its quite possibly one of that era's terminator suits. I'm REALLY hoping its this one- http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/310/0/9/imperial_fists___pramus_kholosk_by_greyall-d5k5wz3.jpg (Image courtesy of Greyall's talent ) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562438 Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Looks similar to MK II like the Tartaros is similar to MK IV, and I think cataphractii would be like MK II OR III Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly the only reason I don't already have some in the mail is because I'm waiting for the Gorgon Terminator models to come out first to see what they look like.

Phoebus Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 BassWave, It's ironic you likened having Indomitus in the Horus Heresy to having Mk 7 power armour... since the latter was designed as the Heresy came to a close. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'm fully aware of that, which is why I based my comparison with having mk7 during the CRUSADE. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackoption Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 My money is that the saturnine terminator plate is the same style that the grey knights use in 40k time frame. FW has also mentioned arkonaught pattern terminator armor.

Wish they would release Saturnine armor so we'd know what that looked like. Why? In 40K all Terminator armor suits are relics, unlike the Mk VII armor. So actually it'd make sense of the Indomitus was in the Heresy.

Don the Oiler Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I think the real reason is that Gorgons would have to wear said Indomitus pattern, whereas Iron Hands Terminators look so much better in Cataphractii (-us?).

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 The Gorgons wear the Gorgon-Pattern, whatever that is. Gorgon pattern is supposed to be a modified version of *cough* Indomitus *cough* TDA. I think it was Ferrus's version, seeing as he designed Cataphractii armour.

Kol Saresk Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Supposed to be, doesn't mean it will look like. Look at the Praetor variant and compare to the Mk IV.

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I am hoping so much that's true - the Commander Culln & Tyberos models show FW can make cool variants, with MK IV & V influences respectively. It'd be cool if gorgon pattern is more MK III influenced - with all the IH bionics & trims of course Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285337-power-armor-mk-stats/#findComment-3562796 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish they would release Saturnine armor so we'd know what that looked like. Aside from these ugly bastards who existed very briefly (fortunately), technically, fluff-wise the Indomitus Terminator armor was always the only kind of Terminator armor for like 20 years, dating back to these guys in the 1989 release of Space Hulk. Mk VII armor was, on the other hand, always described as being an end of/post-Heresy invention. The others are recent inventions to sell you resin shinies you didn't already have. It's kinda like the FW fluff retcon to make Mk IV armor the best version, lol. "You already own a ton of those others. You need these ones now."
