foamy248 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 There have been rumours circulating that the Horus Heresy book Angelus will contain a further wave of Night Lords? Can someone confirm, and if so - what could it be? I am aware that the Atrementar(?) lack models, anything else?

ronin_cse Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I sure haven't heard this rumor anywhere. That being said it would make sense since they are some of the main antagonists for the Secundus arc Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4645484 Share on other sites More sharing options...

armarnis Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 well, havent they said that the DA part of angelus would focus on something else then thramas?

Corswain Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 They haven't said anything yet. Some of their comments make it seem likely but we won't know until later today/tomorrow.

helterskelter Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Giving Sevatar artificer armour. Please. I'll pay an extra 10 points. In the novels what do we have at Thramas? Speculation time would suggest Atramentar, Sheng, potentially a new rite of war (that may give preferred enemy DA?), Something to do with Tsalgualsa. Beyond that I can't imagine there would be much more except for some fluff and art Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4645641 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanceqi Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Sev deserves an Infiltration WT like Huron or Ahriman does. Please, Lord of FW, hear my prayers.

Balthamal Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Hopefully it's not Sheng, I'd prefer one of the other Kyropter like Naraka - something a bit new. Units wise I don't see anywhere for us to go bar Atramentar unless we get a jetbike unit or something that's totally left-field. Or better yet a librarian consul like the Dream-eaters or whatever they were called (as seen in Child of Night when Zharost literally turns some poor sod's brains into a pretzel) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4647227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corswain Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I'm a bit on the fence about whether I'd like to see Talos and co. I really think their story is a 40K story and I'd prefer it that way but I couldn't be terribly upset if they changed that. Maybe somehing completely new too. I think Atramentar are pretty likely but maybe something a bit out there. Sqauds of "penal legionaries"? A landspeeder storm-esque variant to drop them off?

helterskelter Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Skraivok could be another choice, as much as I like Fel Zharost I think he's set to become a knight Errant in the novels (?) so it'd be a peculiar choice to go with. Thought I wouldn't shirk a Dream Eater librarian at all. Id like it even more if he had master of the legion too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4647303 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like it even more if he had master of the legion too Agreed and besides by the time of Thramas Sevatar had already expelled Zharost from the Legion. But that's the best idea I could come up with for a consul. Imo every Legion should have one Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4647308 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black_out Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I really hope the unit is Atramentar and not some made-up unit out of left field. There's been a large community demand for them since the introduction of the NL in the HH books. Plus they, along with Sevatar, play a very large role in the Thramas Crusade. As for what else we could see? Maybe a new RoW for sevatar involving the Atramentar. Almost a specialized version of the Pride RoW. As for a new character, Skraivok does sound like a good guess. Ophion would have been a good option if he hadn't already been introduced.

1ncarnadine Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I think I'd rather see Naraka (what is up with that Bloodless story???) or maybe Shang. Although honestly most of the reason I want to see Shang is the possibility that sweet tusked skull helm from the cover of The Long Night, which is presumably Shang. Agreed that Ophion would be great if he wasn't here already, but hopefully he gets coverage in the campaign. Maybe they could even do his model? I'd love to see what his Bloody Aegis is (a shield?).

AceofAllTradez Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Shang is at the top of the list for me along with the atramentar. Definitely agree with the 2+ save of sevatar.

Balthamal Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I agree I'd prefer to see Atramentar but Imperator Bligh was quoted (somewhere, don't ask I'm running on little sleep and sarcasm) as saying "A couple of units" so Atramentar are the #1 given the demand for them but could also be others. Whether that's a consul upgrade or a whole squad will remain to be seen. As for the Atramentar themselves, I'd expect them to get their own special rule to tie in with Sevatar unless they plan to make the VIII 1 of the 1st Legions to get themselves a 3rd RoW. Something like assaulting out of deep strike but with a disordered charge or some such. As for characters, any of the Kyroptera (after Sev kills the rest of them) or possibly Malcharion. Sheng doesn't really seem that interesting based on his appearances.

Aeternus Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I'd personally predict Var Jahan over Sheng Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4647416 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenbain Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Malcharion would be awesome to get, as he sees a lot of action on Terra as well :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330630-night-lords-confirmed-for-angelus/#findComment-4647434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 What is Zso Sahaal doing during all of this? He's been awfully quiet given he was sevatars eventual "replacement".

I think Zho Sahaal and by extension that generation (Acerbus) came to the front more during the scouring period, after Sev and the majority of the NL hh commanders were dead. Could see if FW ever get to it a book covering the scouring of Tsagualsa.
