aura_enchanted Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 in the new curse of the wulfen supplement there is a battle raging between the wolves and chaos and the dark angels and grey knights and chaos marines will be joining halfway in. according to the rumor control the ravenwing will be in full effect with sammy on the hunt looking for a fallen that might be hiding amongst the wulfen. also appearing in the lore book will be harad, egil, and sven from the wolves http://natfka.blogspot.ca/2016/01/space-wolf-hype.html scroll to the bottom update: the who's who of our angels in this campaign, so 6th, 2nd, and maybe a detachment of the 1st to back up azzy: http://cdn.bols.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/wulfen-dramatis-personae.jpeg artwork of us in battle next to the wolves http://cdn.bols.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/2-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318679-rumor-control-dark-angels-in-the-wolf-book-update/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exactly are a bunch of robed marines hiding with armored werewolves from the 50's?

How exactly are a bunch of robed marines hiding with armored werewolves from the 50's? I mean, many of the fallen have mutated, so ultimately they might look pretty similar at this point. Alternatively, sammy might just be wrong.

Bryan Blaire Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I think there's a pretty significant logical and numerical difference between "a bunch" and "a" (indicating singular)... I'll let individual logical deduction work that out for each person on their own though, maybe they'll come to a different conclusion than I have. Let's not let exaggeration run away with ourselves while we try to do some rational reasoning though. This wouldn't be the first time that a Space Wolf of any stripe happened to have an interaction or information concerning the Fallen (Ragnar Blackmane previously has seemed to have some information). It's almost like the story of the Wolf and Lion have some kind of intertwining and all. That hasn't shown up in any lore previously, has it? Not like since the Heresy or anything...

Few actually fell to chaos after being pulled into the warp. Also, those that did wouldn't share traits of the wolfen. That's a unique mutation stemming from the primarch's geneseed (space wolf players can feel free to input more on that). Chaos mutations are going to be different.

Frater Cornelius Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 The big question is whether DA are just there for show or if they are going to get something. Maybe a Ravenwing Decurion just like Scars got the Scarblade Strikeforce?

Maybe is campaign is a two parter, with SW and deamons in the first book, and GK and DA added into the mix in the second one.

Frater Cornelius Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Wouldn't be the first time. We saw a two-part campaign with Montka and Kauyon and a 7ed Codex, the SM, got addition Decurions. This is a distinct possibility.

Kriegsmacht Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Alright I would like some help from you mysterious bunch. I'm not a Dark Angels player but I do like their background especially in the Index Astartes book. Now it's my understanding that the only Imperial outside of the Dark Angels chapter(and successors i'm assuming) that knows about their secret and the fallen was the Emperor. I made a joke in the Wulfen rumour thread that when the Inquisition/Grey Knights show up to see these Wulfen they'll instead find out about the Fallen and in turn the secret. I was informed that the Inquisition already knows about the Fallen. If that's true then when did this happen and how?

Lostrael Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Huh? Ragnar knows? Not in the books I read. There are different levels of knowledge. The Inquisition, Grey Knights or Space Wolfs may know that the Dark Angels capture and interrogate Chaos Space Marines. They may even know that some of them were Dark Angels. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon that some individuals stray from the light of the Emperor. They need to be hunted down. The truth would not be so easy discarded. Half a Legion turned. That is the fact that must remain hidden.

The vast majority of fallen are encountered well outside of the warp and have been going about their business outside of the warp for 10,000 years. There is nothing to indicate that any substantial amount of fallen have spent extensive time in side of the warp. There is a lot of evidence supporting time spent outside of the warp. Furthermore, "the warp" is ambiguous. Terminators deploy through the warp, and several chapters, including grey knights, have spent significant time in the eye of terror without mutations. Finally, yes, the space wolves would notice. Dark Angels, even mutated, would never be able to hide among wulfen. Even if the robes and black armor didn't give them away to searching DA, the wulfen would know immediately that the the fallen are not one of them. It's not like the wulfen are a bunch of fenrisian penguins that heard around and are oblivious to things in their midst. And as far as I know, they aren't very kind to outsiders.

It's not like the wulfen are a bunch of fenrisian penguins that heard around and are oblivious to things in their midst. And as far as I know, they aren't very kind to outsiders. Vast majority is irrelevant for a single story. Furthermore, the fallen were scattered through time and space, so very few actually have been anywhere for 10k years. As for mutations without embracing chaos, check out most of the planets near the Eye, or for instance the Soul Drinkers or the early Crimson Sabres. Furthermore, the wulfen of course would realize it, but they might well not care, as they have been missing almost as long as the fallen have. It is probable their goals and the goals of some of the fallen still align from the crusades. But to be honest, that is the only real issue I see with a fallen chilling with some wulfen. Now if they were to claim a significant number of fallen were doing so, that would strain belief, but in a universe as vast as the 40k universe, the dark angels thinking their might be a fallen in amongst a bunch of mutants that turn out to be wulfen, is not super surprising. Additionally, the notion that more than a subset of the Fallen still wear the robes and black of their betrayal is laughable. Renegades rarely keep their original armour very long. Look at any of the fluff on them and you will quickly see lines about scavenging, stealing, forging anew, repainting, etc... Considering half a legion worth of chapters are searching for them, I would imagine the fallen would be even less likely than typical renegades to continue wearing such easily identifiable garb, except out of mockery.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I too find it hard to believe. The wulfen I used to know were almost mindless beasts, so A fallen hiding in a pack of Wulfen would be harder than a cat hiding inside a pack of wolves. But now maybe they are like refined english gentlemen, sipping tea , playing cricket and doing some fox hunting for sport. Maybe the new Wulfen fluff is just: http://glued.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Beauty-and-The-Beast.jpg But rumors are rumors so I'll just keep the torch and pitchfork in the shed for the time being...

That cockney accent Oo Either way, maybe the book after this one, should there be one, there is more info regarding why DA wanted to drop by. Maybe they are not thinking that the Fallen are with the Wulfen. Maybe they want info from them because they have been around quite a while.
