Talonair Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 To be honest Nepharya wouldn't be a bad base, the head would need replacing and the scythe blade redirected, and some more stuff coming from her back but otherwise...

Talonair Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 Time to get the gears turning again. Are non-Legion factions expected to supply Rites of War or similar as well?

MikhalLeNoir Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 How is it in the heresy books? Does the auxilias have something like a rite of war?

Talonair Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 The Militia get Provenances, and the Mechanicum get different force orgs with varying restrictions and benefits based on what army you're running (i.e., Taghmata, Cybernetica, Reductor) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313550-io-the-mechanicum-abyssii/page/5/#findComment-4561109 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 So following that routr would be the most logical approach. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313550-io-the-mechanicum-abyssii/page/5/#findComment-4561115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talonair Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 Hm, alright. Also, I was thinking for a Relic idea, an item that grants the Concussive and/or Blind special rule to blast weapons within 12" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313550-io-the-mechanicum-abyssii/page/5/#findComment-4561151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

simison Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Do her feet touch the ground with that large of an apparatus? Also, I'd caution against mentioning her ambition in every piece, it'll quickly become a dull hammer on the reader. I'm intrigued by the theology I'm seeing. Is this all canon? I don't know because I know very little of either the Mechanicum or Mechanicus.

Talonair Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 Her feet do sometimes touch the ground, it depends on what kind of image she is trying to portray. If she feels there is something to be gained, i.e. when she's trying to win someone's trust etc she'll have her feet on the ground because it looks more normal. However, in battle or if she's trying to intimidate, they won't, because it looks pretty terrifying And yea, all this theology is canon.

bluntblade Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 One thing I'd suggest - a real hardcore tech-priest of any stripe doesn't bother to process that sort of information visually, taking it directly into their neural network.

bluntblade Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I suggest you highlight that, then. That way it's clearly a choice of characterisation, as opposed to an error of omission.

Talonair Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 So I did a quick estimate of Mortera's current points cost using the very helpful calculator, and it's priced her currently at about 585pts. Keep in mind that the Heresy does undercost Primarchs significantly, and this was calculated by taking an Archmagos Prime with the Archimandite, Abeyant and Machinator Array as a base. Thoughts?

foamy248 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Ridiculously WIP, but here's a shot of Mortera so far.
