Noctem Cultor Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hail, Simple question to put to you. With the 40k verse getting bigger what Ordos would you like yo get expanded (fluff/models or both)? For me I kind of like Ordos Sicarius the idea of a spy in the Assassin ranks just seems triple secret cool to me.

Komrk Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 God I can't remember the name for the life of me. It's in the Damocles Raven Guard story.

Father Mehman Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I would like to see more of an emphasis on people creating their own Ordo Minoris. We have the three Ordo Majoris and, as we know, each Inquisitor can spend their time in any of those, but what about the Ordo Sepulcura? Fighting the new Plague of Unbelief would be cool. If that caught on, who knows where it could go?

Noctem Cultor Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 I do love the minor ones, id love a novel where a new threat appears and the start of an Ordos to fight it begins.

pathatrick Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Chronos Chronos would be very interesting but the concept, or perception of time would bring up all kinds of arguments and retconing some fluff.

Aethernitas Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I wish they would expend on the three main Ordos by doing a hardcover Inquisition codex with all the Ordo Militarii (Grey Knights, Adeptus Sororitas, Deathwatch) in mind. Given that the Sororitas are overdue for a new model range and a new codex and Deathwatch would be very easy to realize they could make a lot of people happy with a synergizing Inquisition codex, including me.

Father Mehman Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Didn't the Sisters get retconned into not working for the Ordo Hereticus anymore? I may be wrong but I think they just work for the Ecclesiarchy now and get called from time-to-time by the OH.

*Furyou Miko Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Yeah, the Sisters aren't part of the Inquisition (and, in fact, never have been - they were 'chamber militant by assumption', which is to say, they assumed the role of the Hereticus' Chamber Militant, but remained an independent organisation). Basically, since the Adepta Sororitas and the Ordo Hereticus were created to do the same job - root out heresy, especially in the Ecclesiarchy - they tend to find themselves working together a lot, and when a Hereticus Inquisitor needs an army, he's more likely to ask the Sororitas than the local Guard, for example.

That my understanding too. I really hope they are just holding out until they can drop the full Sororitas Dex and the Adeptus Astartes Deathwatch Supplement and then release that reworked harcover Inquisition codex. Let a man dream, will ya?

Aeternus Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Ordo Necros - if a whole other ordo was formed (Ordo Vigilus) to just keep an eye on these guys...I want to know what they are up to. On another note, maybe the Ordo Astartes, as you can never have too many stories of 'Ork Snipers' (search Celestial Lions, and see why you don't annoy the inquisition) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305178-what-ordos-would-you-like-to-see-more-of-and-why/#findComment-4005629 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timotheus Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Ordo Machinum: I love the tubes- and augmention-loaded Mechanicum Adepts and would love to see Inquisitors of that style. Ordo Obsuletus: I love the idea of some X-Files-like taskforce in the 40k universe. Ordo Sepulturum: I always digged the idea of Witchhunters, Inquisitors and Vampirehunters as characters determined to hunt supernatural foes especially undead ones. A zombie plague within the 40k universe and individuals who are specialised to bring them down sounds awesome to me. Next 40k vampires please... Ordo Necros/Thanatos: An Ordo (one of them...none confirmed) who seems to be consigned to monitor everything linked to the phenomenon of death itself and related issues such as Anima Mori. Nothing is known about this ordo but it has a full inquisitorial ordo just to watch over it. I am really curious how an Inquisitor of this Ordo would look like. Ordo Sicarius: In matters of style a mix of Assassin and Inquisitor MUST look cool. ........ But basically I simply love every different department of the Inquistion for its potential to produce very specialised and individual Inquisitors in manners of appearence/style, equipment, mood, motivation and character.

MosesGunn Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Read the book "Hard to be a God"by the Strugatsky brothers recently. The plot's pretty much set on a Feudal World and I could definitely see it fitting in somewhere in the 40k universe if not for the extremely optimistic look on humanity's future. The concept though of an observer being sent to monitor the progress of a Medieval planet definitely fits in with the idea of the Ordo Barbarus. And though I know the fluff says they're an extremely small order I just think it's a great idea of Inquisitors running around backwater worlds trying to subtly spread the Imperial Truth without tipping the structure of the world completely over the balance. Also be a great excuse to paint some Bretonnia models into a warband!

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Isn't there supposed to be a minor order for each chaos legion?Maybe an Ordo Nimrod/Nineveh dedicated to findign and saving great works of art and culture of mankind, as it mankind's culture as well power that is supreme and emperor given.

Charlo Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Would love to see a novel on the time travel ordo. Story could be they go back in time and prevent the heresy or the like but for all of thier hubris the outcome is much more horrific or something. Obviously everything back to normal in the end, more of a wild ride than plot development!

hephaestus93 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Ordo Astra, mainly because I assume they are at least partly responsible for watching the Navigators.

Story could be they go back in time and prevent the heresy or the like but for all of thier hubris the outcome is much more horrific or something. Obviously everything back to normal in the end, more of a wild ride than plot development! The best thing about this idea is that the antagonists need not be from outside the Inquisition. An inquisitor may wish to prevent the Horus Heresy, but another may think the Emperor needs to die and be deified to unite the Imperium for the next ten millenia and thus would try to sabotage the first inquisitor. A third, potentially traitorous inquisitor may have been approached by the Cabal or find himself thinking like them through other means and consider that the sacrifice of mankind is a small price to pay for the definitive destruction of Chaos and as such try to make Horus win... the possibilities are endless even within the sole Inquisition.

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 If we're creating Ordos, I've got a couple I just came up with. Ordo Arcanum - Concerned with matters arcane. They investigate the unexplained. They are almost all psykers, as they study the warp and the occult knowledge of chaos. To know one's enemy, you must become your enemy. Ordo Explorator - Concerned with seeking out lost worlds, and expanding the realm of human knowledge and influence.

Nice. I might have to steal that idea !
