bluntblade Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Was also thinking the remains from days of constant fighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Those are pilled up and used as defense walls. Problem was thst raktra broke through.^^ but i mentioned it to the artist. But it could be very difficult to implement it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluntblade Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I was thinking more of a running battle, especially with Gwal's arrival. With two Primarchs and reinforcements the loyalists are holding- then Raktra arrives and everything goes mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Yeah but although everything goes mad they need to hold the eternity gate at all costs. And the pic shows just a glimpse. We don't know what happens before or after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluntblade Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 So, aside from some stories for the Lightning Bearers, do we have anything else that needs writing for Alpha? I was going to crack on with the Dragon's Flight, but then I realised that arguably our most important Legion have been largely absent from the fluff.

simison Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Ah, Insurrection. There's lot of stories to be told left. Nothing has been written about the Pionus vs. Morro duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigismund229 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Imho, Morro and the Drowned haven't received anywhere near enough love in terms of stories...

Raktra Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Blame Hesh (both for this and in general). He vanished, VANISHED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelborn Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 He recently wrote that he will be back in the near future. Had a lot to do in reallife. Â But if your post was ironic, just ignore what I wrote. ;) Raktra 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grifftofer Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Ok. Just saw as part of some information on Inferno from the Warhammer Fest weekend that the numbers for Thousand Sons/Space Wolves had been mentioned. Supposedly at the fall of Prospero there were around 50k Thousand Sons and 80k Space Wolves. Â Now I know that personally I was expecting that number to be smaller, hence my own legion's size. But just thought I'd ask if anyone is considering revising their numbers in the wake of this info? Or if you guys think I should increase the numbers for the Grave Stalkers? (I probably won't go to 50k, but 15-20 would probably be ok, and still the smallest by a significant margin.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigismund229 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I've already revamped the Lion's numbers from 130k to 180k(some estimates putting them at 230k although that"s unlikely) to take account for the fact that they're gonna need to sustain heavy losses in the Blood Crusade and fight at Terra and also garrisson the Dominion. Â I'd have no problem with you boosting GS numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Heres the thing. The 50k Estimate is just that, an Estimate since the Raven Guard were factually the smallest Legion at 81k Post Gate 42. So make of that what you will. Â So yeah, a number boost might be in order. Edited May 18, 2016 by Slipstreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I think we already decided that because the insurrectiom lasts so long we can add 50%(?) to our numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skalpynock Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I think we already decided that because the insurrectiom lasts so long we can add 50%(?) to our numbers? It's because the Great Crusade is 44 years longer, and an average 20-30% increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 So, how much should we add? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 If your Legion already has ~120k+ Marines, you dont really need to add. Â If you've got, say, under 50k, you can boost to ~80k with no issues, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Well we habe 157k but we don't fight for the majority of the insurrection. At the beginning we habe about 10k dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluntblade Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I've left off doing anything with The Drowned simply because I haven't got much info on how they fight, weapon styles, titles and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 So, how much should we add?  I've said a straight 20%-30% increase is fair before. Honestly, the more 'empire-building' legions should probably be a bit bigger than that given how they have more recruiting worlds, but that should be a good base to work off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Hey guys, I'm wondering if there should be a dedicated artwork thread where we can post anything we have. This would be including all the commissions that people have gotten and whatever stuff that we do on our own. Skalpynock 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
