Forge World Colors/Background - Voss Prime

[Captain Iskinder]

Hi; I'm trying to get back into 40k after a number of years away from the game, and have taken to the Skitarii as a new & interesting force. I'm not a big fan of any of the "codex" forge world paint-jobs, but in the book there are a number of Forge Worlds for whom there is a logo but no other information listed; among these is the world of Voss Prime.

I have done as much digging as I can online, and gotten as many tidbits of information from my friends who have books cited in online articles. So far I have found this information; Voss Prime is located in the Segmentum Solar, and is the closest Forge World to Armageddon. It is the home of the Legio Invigilata, which won much fame & fortune in the 2nd War for Armageddon. Voss Prime appears to be pretty bad at Plasma Technology, and Cypher (the Fallen Angel) once teamed up with Chaos Terminators to steal STC tech from a structure known as the "Irontower". Everything else seems to be unsourced or confused, and part of what makes this difficult is that there is another Forge World, by the name of "Voss" that is often confused for Voss Prime, but is, in fact, a completely different Forge World; a quick look at the map in either of the Codices for the Adeptus Mechanicus will show 2 distinct worlds. 

My question to the Bolter & Chainsword community is as follows; Does anyone else know of more information on Voss Prime? A color scheme, anything? I have seen the original Imperial Armour Vol. 1 - Imperial Guard and Imperial Navy book cited online in several pages, but can't find anyone who has the book to look through it. If anyone who has that book can find any snippet on page 251 that has information about Voss Prime, i'd be eternally grateful.

 

TLDR; Anyone have information about Voss Prime?

Page 251 of Imperial Amour Vol 1: Imperial Guard & Imperial Navy only shows that there is a number of Voss (not Voss Prime) pattern armaments on a Vulture Gunship, namely the fragmentation warheads of the multiple rocket pods, the Mk23 quad missile launcher tubes, and the autocannon and ammunition drum. No info about the world itself.

Page 8 lists a number of Forge Worlds, including Voss Prime (not Voss), but doesn't give any other info than what you already know.

 

I don't have time to look through the book now (need to get going to work) but if I remember I'll have another quick look through tonight. If not, there's bound to be someone else with a copy of the book and/or more knowledge on the subject. :)

 

In any case, welcome to the forum and back to the hobby! :tu:
