Daemon2027 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I am a million miles away from my copy of Scars and Brotherhood of the Storm but what detail were there on White Scar a Terminators. Like armour type, structure, named characters. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297048-white-scar-terminators/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I've not read Brotherhood of the Storm but I've read Scars twice and I don't actually remember anything about Terminators in it. I imagine they'd use Tartaros because id think that was faster but I could be wrong.

Lucien Eilam Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 There are lots of Terminators in Scars, but Wraight only really mentions it as they're introduced and never specifies which pattern. It's not one of the books where every movement or action anyone takes in Terminator armour is described in detail. A quick search brings up three named characters, whose armour gets one adjective each: Hasik Noyan-Khan in "gilt-edged Terminator armour" Keshig master Qin Xa in "blast-scorched Terminator armour" Jemulan Noyan-Khan in "master-crafted Terminator armour" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297048-white-scar-terminators/#findComment-3814839 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daemon2027 Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Yeah i thought there were some mentioned. Shame there is nothing on the type of terminator armour. I am guessing any would be fare game. I get the thing about wanting to be swift but if they have chosen to fight on foot then would they not want to be armoured. I dont know much about the Mongol's past general knowledge but I am sure i read somewhere they tended to have as much infantry as they did cavalry, and also fielded heavy archers.

Fire Golem Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Yeah I'd say it's fair game. I'd say every legion probably would have used, or at least had access too, all the patterns.

Lucien Eilam Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Yeah, Terminator armour can be as well-suited to the White Scars style as any other way of waging war. Nothing's faster in or out than teleporting, after all.

Daemon2027 Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 I have some Cataphractii that i have been meaning to do something with, maybe a all terminator army or possibly a small truescale kill team. Terminator truescale not the plasticard one i usually do.

Solar_Pattern Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 We'll going of my head from "Brotherhood of the Storm"; Kharns personal keshig is a bunch of Catchapatchi (wrong spelling I know ) terminators. Equipment wise I think they where armed with Guan-does but I'm unsure.

One-eye Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I think scars mentions the Keshig as wearing cataphracii armor I've got the same souvenir. That's why I plan to do a squad of Cataphractii very soon for my HH WS force. Well not exactly cataphractii, but anyway :wink: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297048-white-scar-terminators/#findComment-3815306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucien Eilam Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 None of the pattern names appear anywhere in either book. They're just described as Terminators. Shiban is the only character described as wielding a guan dao, and he doesn't wear Terminator armour.

It mentions it explicitly (I'm 98% sure) when the Khan and his Keshig teleport onto Prospero. I'll find it when I have a spare moment Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297048-white-scar-terminators/#findComment-3816003 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucien Eilam Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'm not saying that from memory. I searched the ebooks. There might be some scrap of description in there somewhere that suggests a particular pattern, but the word never appears.

talos402000 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I remember the name of one group of White Scars, the Scattered Star Terminators. Although, for the life of me, I can't remember where I read that.

Karthak Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 "The Khan turned to see Qin Xa standing before him. The keshig master was already in battle-armour, a hulking suit of blast-scorched Terminator plate covered in the trophies of his unmatched combat record." "The Khan reached for his ornate, gold-crested helm. The faceplate was decorated with a Qo-era dragon mask in florid curls. ‘Let us go.’ The twelve Terminators stomped from the observation balcony." From Scars. At the very least, Jaghatai Khan's bodyguard consisted of Terminators.
