Brother Callius Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Greetings fellow 30k lovers! I was looking through the army list book when I stumbled upon the Contemptor entry. Can it be true that there is no advantage other than the aesthetics in taking a relic Contemptor over a standard one? I couldn't find any mention of relic Contemptors anywhere in the book. I find that a bit odd I mean aren't relic Contemptors supposed to be extra special?

Grotsmasha Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 The Relic Contemptor is to represent the treasured value of a Contemptor in 40k, where as the standard Contemptor represents the mass use of the Heresy. In summary, yes it is purely an aesthetics choice.

Brother Callius Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Thanks for answering my conundrum, then I suppose Relic Contemptors could be used to show a venerable legionnaire or one with several battle honours.

Raktra Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Or your average EC/UM one. I always viewed the standard one as the DIY dread.
