IM - Mortal Armies of the Insurrection

Recommended Posts

Full list so far on the Wiki.

 

On the Loyalist side, we have a few who are roughly equal to Solar Auxilia

  • Interex survivors, including their Saggittars
  • The Auretian Brotherhood
  • The Daughters of Dae'rdd
  • The Leonic Auxilia

 

Regular Imperial troops:

  • The Greatstriders of Umbra (think the Umbers from GoT IN SPACE) fighting alongside the Fire Keepers

 

For the Insurrectionists:

  • The Rakurai of Madrigal
  • The Novadeka serving under the Warbringers

 

Of course we have some less-than-elite elements too:

  • The zealots of the Eagle Warriors, plucked from the prisons and penal colonies of Imperium Nova
  • Whatever poor sons of :censored: are unfortunate enough to fight under the Berserkers of Uran (probably more penal battalions)

Yeah the Mericans are SA.

 

The Silahdars could also be in that catagory. The have pseudo power armor and high powered weapons. Fun fact they are an all female force.

Wow, Sarmant Silahdars? Funny to think the sector I've been developping in 40k is the "Sarment" Sector, whose capital is also the HQ for a Sisters of Battle Order - those are going to be more Indian themed, but I do have another planet in the sector that has the remnants of the loyalist Byzant Janizzars relocated there (I might have to rethink that at some stage)

-Great minds think alike and all :lol:

Depends, the refugees come from all across the imperium and I don't think all males had to join the leonic auxilia. But i like the idea of the women taken reaponsibilites for.themselves ( and I can by thoughest girls minis^^). But i think the male children will be great.recruits for future astartes ( or cannonfodder astartes 25 years later.) how many astartes can be created in 25 years if you have a very stable gene seed?
Apart from Saturnyne solar auxilia, the Void Eagles auxiliary forces include Vernal Espatiers (roughly analoguous to SA), and Eridani Grognards, as well as a potential militia composed of all crew members not essential to the ship's function.

The HUGE slave armies of the eagles can be counted amongst these I think? They are all poorly armed, some with autoguns, the lucky ones with flamers, yet some only have a pistol. They are a rabbel of crazed drugged men pushed forward by packmasters from the eagle wrrior legionairies themselves

Seconded. I know we have an expanded roster for Militia Provenances, and the Leonic Auxilia will provide the rules for an Army force with Astartes specialists. Apparently there's a push for the Daughters. Are there any other potential Army forces that want and deserve a ruleset?

The Orphans of War,although they may Use the daughters rules.

 

Consisting only of women they will be the guardians of caerbannog in the future and become a Siegers of battle like organisation. Now they are masses of survivors consisting only of women.

Arkanav Voltigeurs

 

Fielded mainly as light infantry units, the Arkanav Voltigeurs operate as a scouting force, clearing the way for mainline infantry to cross. To them falls the duty of first engagement, to gauge the foe's strength and find breaches in their defences. The very first of their numbers were founded from the penitentiary battalions of the subjugated Arkanav bandit-clan who still roamed the roads in Darzalas' nascent empire. Of all the regiments of the Novadeka, it was counted among those whose survival rates were the most expansive, its officer cadres being of lower veterancy than the Imperial average.

 

Mogugrad Death-Strike

 

Hailing from the hive of Mogugrad, the most populous city -state of ruined Strela, the Death-Strike was comprised of enforcers of long-forgotten laws. Elite urban fighters, the Death-Strike could advance where Astartes could not, through tunnels, corridors and pipes, a distinctive advantage in boarding assault where a foe would find themselves surrounded on one side by the Warbringers and from behind by the Death-Strike. The regiment was known to favour several less orthodox ways of war, such as sabotage of air-cyclers and power infrastructure.

 

Kzarny Rad-Walkers

During the great wars that plagued Strela during the Age of Strife, Kzarn was hit perhaps the hardest of the planet's nation-states. Ravaged by atomantic bombardment, its people was forced in underground vaults. Centuries later, they would emerge fundamentally changed. Beneath their rad-suits, their relentless troops were fitted with extensive augmetics to cope with the wasteland they had once called home. Even once united under Darzalas, the Kzarny were watched with fear among his troops. In battle, the Rad-Walkers can fight in every theatre of war, unfazed by noxious clouds, fire storms, nor atomantic fire.

The 'serker ones may as well just be titled as Auxiliaries, keeps in with the relative disinterest in elaborate naming conventions in the legion. Informally, the battalions and such taken from them could be referred to as Hunting Parties or War Boys, depending on which reference we want to enforce.

Not that I'm overly surprised because it's been so long since I worked on them in any meaningful way but you guys are forgetting about the 1st Terran Heredes from Vasalius, they're an almost completely finished force similar in capacity as the solar auxilla that notably lose their entire first regiment as well as their planet's icon in an I'll advised and disastrous battle against the Berserkers during the Blood Crusades.

If I'm not mistaken there was even talk of rules for them. I hope I didn

Didn't do all that work for nothing lol
