A D-B Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Where's that quote from? Master of Mankind <3 Aaron! Did we really invent the sound and A D-B picked it up? To me they'll always sound like slightly more dangerous, less stable versions of this or this, but it was a nod to our lovely B&C family.

foto69man Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I like the idea of a FB Group, brings a wider audience in.As a Mechanicum owner/operator, I would love more choom for them. For a titan weapon...... ....would love it. Warhound maybe?

hermanista Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I may be a heathen for asking this, for which I beg forgiveness, but still. Currently building a 10 man Tartaros Choominator squad. Do I want two plasma blasters, or two Reapers, or all ten men with the dreaded choom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forward Assist Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Personally, I have 1 plasma blaster for every 4 Volkite chargers for versatility against heavier armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Where's that quote from?Master of Mankind <3 Aaron! Did we really invent the sound and A D-B picked it up? All over 'VOIP!' in the context of Hudson in Aliens: 'Independently targeting particle beam phalanx. VOIP! Fry half a city with this puppy.' We never heard it fire it could have went choom I need to put choom into my next Heresy novel. I had freem in the Night Lords Series, so it's only fair.

Shaolin_Monkey Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 If we are to encourage the growth of volkite beyond its existing capacity I think we need brave souls to build as well as design some of our ideas and get them into the wider world Taking this on board I'm starting a Solar Auxilla army soon. What super heavy would be suited to maximum choomage from their selection. I'm leaning towards Stormhammer maybe? Preferably one of the baneblade chassis ones anyway. You guys tell me which one and I'll build it with every weapon swapped to a volkite of some form. Even if I have to scratch build them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 A Choomhammer sounds good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaolin_Monkey Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 But so does a Choomlord with double sponsons of choom! Or a Stormchoom with a massive volkite blast Cannon. They all sound fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Just the main cannon would be more than good enough :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memento Of Prospero Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 A few ideas Sicaran Vena-choom Mounted with Volkite Chieorovile Special Rule: gets hot, obviously. As an upgrade for the Mechanicum Ulator: Volkite Furnace Heart Cannon Range: 60 inches S10 AP1, beam, Ignore Cover, Deflagrate, Molten fury, Ultimate Choom! Molten Fury: Any model a hull point as a result of this weapon loses another hull point on a 4+. Ultimate Choom! Pick a direction. The cannon fires in a strait line and hits all models up to the maximum of 60 inches and leave a marker at the end of the line. Models moving through the line created by the tip of the weapon and the marker suffer a hit from this weapon. At the begining of the following turn, the Ulator may pivot on the spot 15 degrees instead of it's normal movement. All models inbetween the previous location of the marker and the new location are hit. For each consecutive in this firing mode, roll a D6. If you roll the amount of turns using this firing mode or less, the weapon overheats and does not fire this turn. Suffer D3 hull points of damage.

EDIT: Cheers Quixus! Just want to note that I am currently working on there logo with Olis but I don't want to post anything until I get his go ahead. The idea of using the volkite discharge as part of the logo really inspired me, although I did come at it from a different direction, hopefully you'll approve! After Olis looks at it today and I make any adjustments he would like, I'll get it posted up here to be shown as well. Thanks for the kick in the creative pants Forward Assist, you put in the perfect state of mind to knock this out. =) Olis and Forward Assist 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Cohort Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) I have a choom related army list question, does it ever make sense for a Salamander character to have a serpenta? Also I should have both terminator and power armour volkite squads painted within the near future. Edited December 6, 2016 by Black Cohort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenbain Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) I have a hook related army list question, does it ever make sense for a Salamander character to have a serpenta? Well fluff-wise the technical and artificer abilities of the Salamanders mean they'd be better qualified to keep their supplies of notoriously difficult to maintain Volkite weaponry in tip-top shape. Plus it's a heat-based weapon (right?) so they'd likely favour it over bolt weaponry. Edited December 6, 2016 by Fenbain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
