bluntblade Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I'd say give Pyrrhicles a proper appearance. Malis can be covered as an Insurgos warlord, and really both deserve proper character pages.

bluntblade Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I thought Malis wasn't a Terminator anyway Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315290-black-book-insurrection-published/page/76/#findComment-5001732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 I thought Malis wasn't a Terminator anyway I know he has the thunder hammer and storm shield combo. I'm not sure which armour set I gave him.

bluntblade Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Ah. Pyrrhicles has a spear, right? I think Malis should have some buffs, and maybe something tied to his diplomatic finesse. Like Distrusted Allies become Fellow Warriors.

simison Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Yeah, Pyrrhicles has power spear. And that's all well and good, but Malis isn't getting a write-up in this book.

simison Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 Then we are in agreement. Alright, I think that leaves the question about the storm shields. Since storm shields aren't standard issue, but are iconic to the Athenoi, should that be shared early?

Chief Captain Redd Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 As the other big storm shield legion, I agree. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315290-black-book-insurrection-published/page/76/#findComment-5002761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 Wait, who are the storm shield Legions, and are they using different rules?

Chief Captain Redd Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I thought just Bears and Wardens, maybe Lions since they're the other shield heavy legion. And as far as rules Bears match the Fists'.

simison Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 I thought just Bears and Wardens, maybe Lions since they're the other shield heavy legion. And as far as rules Bears match the Fists'. I just looked them over. Perhaps this gives us a simpler solution. Why not allow the Athenoi have access to the same storm shield? That way, we're leaving the HW preview as truly generic.

simison Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Sounds good to me. In that case, I have one last question: should we change the name of the storm shield to better share it between two (if not more legions)? The HW name is Guardian-Pattern, but the IB name is Superior-Pattern.

Chief Captain Redd Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 In all fairness it's named after the Death World in the Huron system lol. I'm fine with a single name.

Chief Captain Redd Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Maybe Aegis pattern? Seeing as it is sort of the shield to end all shields.

simison Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Maybe Aegis pattern? Seeing as it is sort of the shield to end all shields. That's the name of Alexandros' personal shield. So, I guess that could fit, but are you okay with that?

Chief Captain Redd Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'm fine with it, especially since Daer'dd taught Alex before he made it. Maybe the blurb could read something like "Developed on Terra by brother Primarchs Alexandros and Daer'dd, the Aegis pattern, named after Alexandros' personal shield; is considered the ultimate refinement of early storm shield tech. Defined less by the shield and more with the technology within" or something.

simison Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Works for me. I think that solves all of the questions on how to handle the HW. So, I'm back to verifying rules for the 6 Legions who are in the book proper.

Beren Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Auxillia of 26th Infantry Tercio, 918th Solar Auxillia Cohort, 'The Star Serpents.’ Having forcibly ransacked supply stores for Blast-Chargers as the Godslayers revealed their treachery, this unit was one of those immediately thrown into combat. Due to their salvaged equipment they successfully inflicted moderate casualties upon attacking forces. However, they were later forced into a hasty retreat by the Godslayers. The entire unit was declared deceased after the detonation aboard the Orbital Port.
