Olis Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Hmm. How about the far galactic north in the Segmentum Obscurus? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3653233 Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Is that a well fluffed out area of besides the EoT? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3653241 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I suppose It depends on which particular bit you camp in but there is the Gothic, Scarus, Calixis Sectors there amongst others. Ulthwé is there somewhere, iirc. My idea was to plonk yourself in the far, far north near the Halo Stars, away from the EoT and most other stuff to give yourself breathing room.

recon0321 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Well sounds like a plan! Thanks brother now to find a good name for the planet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3653253 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 No problem. Let us know if you need help naming your world (although we can't very well be holding your hand through the entire process now, can we? ;) ).

sitnam Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I agree with Oliresdan here. If you pick an obscure or even DIY sub-sector, you have a ton of room for storybuilding Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3653516 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conviction Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I definitely suggest making up a DIY sub-sector so you can give it flavor to match your DIY homebrew chapter. The Segmentum of choice would also depend on what type of xenos or opponents you prefer your chapter to face.

recon0321 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I am thinking orks or nids....so maybe eastern fringe?

TDF Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Nids could show up in Obscurus, but only as an isolated tendril of Leviathan as the clock strikes midnight in 999.M41. Otherwise you're looking at somewhere in the galactic east / north-east / south-east (so Ultima Segmentum), although a fair bit of Leviathan popped up in Segmentum Tempestus, so that's an alternative.

sitnam Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Well if its Orks then you can fight them anywhere you want. They are awesome for DIY as their not geographically isolated Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3654061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Eldar are huge in Segmentum Obscurus also correct? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3654453 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Ish. Ulthwé and several smaller Craftworlds are around the EoT, but the other 'famous' Craftworlds are all over the Imperium (my map shows Alaitoc and Iyanden in Ultima, Biel-tan in Tempestus and Saim-hann in Pacificus). If you want Tyranids to be key, I'd suggest Ultima (Behemoth and Kraken + splinters) but you could be anywhere in Tempestus too (with Leviathan splinters attacking from beneath the galactic plain).

Plague Angel Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Craftworlds move anyways. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289595-planet-locationfor-my-diy-chapter/#findComment-3654638 Share on other sites More sharing options...
