Talonair Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I'm curious as to why Kelbor-Hal is in favour in our 'verse, given that extreme gene craft is forbidden by the Mechanicus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Captain Redd Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I was just thinking about the project, and something struck me; where do we stand with our add-ons for all Legions? Specifically the additional vehicles, the ones I could think of were. Saber Hunter (various load outs). Grav Rhinos. a Baal type Predator. Predator/Russ hybrid fast MBT. Heavy Assault Bikes. Did we want to add these into the first book? If so I have a super slow day today and I could probably get their profiles/rules all done as other than the bike and new tank pattern it'll be really straight forward.

Kelborn Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Heavy bikes got an entry in the Predator thread and I believe (could be wrong though) that they were exclusive for them as well as the Predators make a distinctive use of bikes and the likes rather than jetbikes.

bluntblade Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Just wondering, are our Primarchs as adverse to wearing their helmets as the canon ones? I know Alex, Pionus and Niklaas wear theirs in battle, but how about the likes of Raktra, Hec and Andezo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelborn Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Good question. Maybe a special one with advanced sensor instead of a visor. But only for diving into a fight. He prefers to use his own senses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raktra Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I could design a top half for Raktra's mask that does the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skalpynock Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Yucahu always wears his helm in battle. Guilliman managed a few hours, but primarchs can't breath in space. His PA helm is similar to a beakie one, though his TDA version doesn't have one, instead having an armored dome like the Scions termies. Kozja is too proud to wear his as anything more than a glorified crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomus Sardauk Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Nomus, being a practical chap, wears his helmet at all times in battle like any reasonable soldier would. As for it's design, I'm actually imagining it as an physical incarnation of the Legion's symbol, Sigma design etched on the left side and all.

~Drakzilla~ Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I could design a top half for Raktra's mask that does the job. So basically something like the chap in the Sons of Horus command kit? Jade has a helm that's pretty clean in design, continuing the wide "T visor" theme I've got for the Warriors. Still debating whether it has a feather plume or not. Anyways, I'd say he wears it maybe 50% of the time.

Sigismund229 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Hec wears his helmet 100% of the time when fighting in boardings actions etc. When he's fighting on the ground, sometimes he does sometimes he doesn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raktra Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Something I've only just noticed on the timeline on the wiki - there's 169 years between the discovery of Icarion and the Jade General. Is that right? It seems like one hell of a stretch of time to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigismund229 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I know we weren't doing Testimonies for the lost primarchs but I was writing out excerpts from Tales of the Crimson Lions to be used at some later date and started one for Hec but it went off in a direction which fit Russ better than it fit Hec From the stars he came To the kingdom staked his claim Within his realm existed a peace Between both the warrior And the beast -The testimony of Leman Russ simison 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigismund229 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) Some of the excerpts from songs and tales of the Crimson Lions that I wrote today and are applicable specifically to the Insurrection Exiled he was Home he came Bloodied his blade To gain eternal fame -Excerpt from the Tale of Turrus "Finehair" With fire he fought Among stars he walked On Kanossia he fell, Prey of the Eagle's Wrath -Tale of Galchobar "Firebreath" On Terra he was born Across the stars he rode Blood he spilled And fame he found His sword was ice His roar was thunder To Lightning he fell Roar on his lips Thunder his knell Axe in his fist -Excerpt from the Tale of Erik "the Slayer". On the ground I lie My name fading to legend On the wind I ride To be reborn as legend Now the stars I ride My tale my shield My anger my axe Warrior I was Legend I am Dying a man Reborn a god -Song of the Crimson Lion On Skeythan was Nuallan lost Not the first Nor yet the last For the Burdened are we -Excerpt from the Tale of Nuallan "Pale-main". Ravens circled And wolves prowled The sky burned And stars fell Howling came Raktra's brood Up the slopes of doom The Ruirech roared And all was still The blackbirds cried Ready to eat their fill The wolves howled Closing in for the kill Blood spilled And axes clashed The earth cracked And Terra crumbled -Excerpt from the Siege of Terra as told by Eibhar "God's-eye".

bluntblade Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) I might chase it with an Image Search and see if I can find the original. Then we can name it after that and at least acknowledge where the look came from. Say, can anyone tell me the name of Icarion's flagship?

Myrmidax Karras Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Greetings everyone.My name is Karras (or Peter, how do you see fit.) I am a fluff addict and a fan of creating something unusual. I suppose, that is the reason why I got here. And the question is - do you have any place for another "creator" with some ideas about the Mechanicum in your project? Personally, I wish to create a Forge-world that somehow could be the reverse of Xana II. Not that I like to compare them, but anyway. The Synod of the planet does not share the common beliefs of Mechanicus, the thing that Mars and most of others The cult of Builder, the one that is considered quite unusual comparing even with the cult of Machine God. Unusual tennets, view on enviroment and people outside their religion. The Forge is powerful due to it's independence from Mars (given by Emperor), but it causes a lot of pacts seales with Astartes and rest of armies. And during the start of civil war, many sides of the conflict wish to make an ally from this world. Through diplomats, cunning and lies, all sides try to make a deal that shall force the Synod to grant support. Because of far position from Terra, the forge-world is unsure of their loyalty. And though the Archmagos is grateful and respectful towards Terra, he fears for the price his loyalty might cost to him. Also, I got the idea of a story of a knight house, alligned with the Forge, but most of the House was shattered and a civil war between scions begins all across the sector. The few loyal knights still protect the Forge from any assault, while others try to bring it to compliance of the side they are on. So, to be short - I'd like to join this group in developing the project, adding my personal ideas and help others with theirs, be it Astartes or Mechanicus. If anyone got questions - I'll be glad to awnser. Doctor Perils 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
