Felix Antipodes Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I don't mind a bit of vagueness in the setting either, but just naming them (without any other details) would be vague enough for me. With the fall of Cadia and the birth of the great rift I have a feeling that all the Praeses Chapters will have taken a huge hit and need a Primaris top up. Logic would say that the Praeses would have been set up in response to the 1st Black Crusade, which would make the originals all 2nd Founding Chapters or 3rd, since the fluff says they were founded to guard the EoT - something that can be interpreted several ways. Chapters founded later would be replacements for originals no longer able to fulfil their role (high casualty rates or annihilation). At least that's how my headcanon sees it ;-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333716-what-chapters-would-you-like-to-see-the-return-of/page/4/#findComment-4766897 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperor's Furor Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 I just thought of another chapter that could use reinforcements, The Mantis Warriors.

klisof Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Does 8th jump the timeline forward to after the penitent crusades undertaken by the executioners, mantis warriors and lamentors following the badab war are due to end? If not old RG could just call an end to the punishment rather than waste valuable resources and reinforce them with primus marines.

Doghouse Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Seeing as the new stuff is set 100 years ahead their penitence crusades should be over. Their crusade started in 912.M41 so if this is the case should be fine to recruit if they have survived.

Boudan Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 My heart sung as I read this thread. I would love for the Lamenters to survive their pentitence crusade and carry on. If their salvation required participation in the primaris business, I could live with that development. I would also like to lobby for the Soul Drinkers.
