talos402000 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 A quick question about the First Legion. The Dark Angels apparently had six specialist chapters called wings. I know what five of them are: The Deathwing. Heavy Assault, Terminators perhaps. The Dreadwing. No idea. The Ravenwing. Fast attack ? The Stormwing. Orbital and Drop pod assault? The Ironwing. Armored warfare? Does anybody know what the sixth wing is and what is it's purpose? Does anybody know what the Dreadwing does? And no, I don't think it has anything to do with dreadnoughts.

Emperor's Furor Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I think the Dreadwing is the Destroyer type chapter. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289350-questions-about-the-first-legion/#findComment-3648862 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrin Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Could the sixth wing have been a Librarius pre-Nikaea? Would explain why it hasn't been mentioned. If not I'd go for boarding parties and ship defence, like the World Eaters Triarii.

Demus Ragnok Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I thought the six wings existed pre primarch. The Ravenwing was from Caliban. Could still one of the six though.

Conn Eremon Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 The wings are Calibanite, but they are modifications of the Legion's multiple pre-existing specializations.

depthcharge12 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 As we have discovered in another thread, the last Wing is the Buffalo ChickenWing. Truly they are the deadliest of the six...they cause heartburn and gas to any foe that take them on....

LordReaper Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Well considering the Star Phantoms are called Dark Angels sucessors because of thier Dreadwing similarity, I'd go with it being something ridicolously overkill Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289350-questions-about-the-first-legion/#findComment-3651223 Share on other sites More sharing options...
depthcharge12 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Well considering the Star Phantoms are called Dark Angels sucessors because of thier Dreadwing similarity, I'd go with it being something ridicolously overkill That would be awesome...I was going to start a star phantoms army lol now I know the true reason haha Only thing we really know about the Dreadwing is that their icon is the skull in hourglass symbol (star phantoms) and their voted lieutenant is Farith Redloss, who carries a gigantic claymore. Like a boss. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289350-questions-about-the-first-legion/#findComment-3651565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
