Captain Juan Juarez Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Praetors of Orpheus - kidding! As long as it ends "-os" or "-us", as they roll off the tongue best, I don't think it matters as that name won't identify the Chapter you're writing about.

Olis Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 How about Praetors of Knossos? Lends itself well to the use of Minotaurs bits (minus the whole Minotaur motif, of course).

Aqui Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Dang it! Every point I was going to make has already been made/resolved! It's an idea I haven't seen in an IA, the use of ashes in the reconsecration of their armour is especially cool As for the older name of the Chapter...well, I do like leaving puns or nods to certain things (as long as they aren't too obvious or detract from the work), but: Praetors of: Cinis (means "Ashes", see also Cineribus) Excidium (means, depending on context I suppose - I know little about Latin [Thanks google translate! ] "Destruction", "Annihilation", "Subversion" or "Overthrow" - a portent of what was to come..?) I'll try and think of a few more Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290146-the-ashen-host-rough-ideas/page/2/#findComment-3666195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messor Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 SupremeGrandMaster_Daniel Glad to see you're making progress on your article, but you don't need multiple threads to write it in. I've merged the two together, and will leave the appropriate renaming to you. Your article WIP ended up in a weird place partway down the first page, so apologies for that, but it shouldn't be too difficult to copy/paste it into the first or last post, wherever you want it.

SupremeGrandMaster_Daniel Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Thank you very much Messor. This will certainly be better :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290146-the-ashen-host-rough-ideas/page/2/#findComment-3666277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plague Angel Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Cinis and Knossos both sound neat. But Juan's right -- you don't want to spend too much thought on a name that's destined to be thrown away. Them's brain cells you could spend on the rest of the IA instead!
