torcathmk2 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Hopefully a nice and quick one. Did the Marine crews of vehicles in the Legions wear their colours or did they don the red of Mars like their 41st millennium brothers?

Marshal Rohr Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I personally have it written into my lore larger tanks have a single legionary in command and mortal crew. Strike tanks are entirely crewed by mortals. I feel like it fits the setting better and gives me the leeway for cool conversions.

Closet Skeleton Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 41st millenium vehicle crews don't all wear red. Some are from the armoury and wear red and have techmarine shoulder pads, others are from reserve companies and wear their company colours Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354587-legion-vehicle-marine-crew-during-the-great-crusadeheresy/#findComment-5277619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykes Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Considering that the speeder crews always seem to just wear standard colourations in the Heresy (And the one place I recall crew was spotty with Haar and his World Eaters masquerading as Sons of Horus) I figure they just wear standard battle plate colours.

Elzender Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I would say they would just wear their legion colours, as I don't think legion vehicle crews were trained by the Mechanicum during the Crusade. It would have probably been logistically difficult due to the huge number of vehicles used by the legions and the need to send legionaries back and forth to/from Forge Worlds to the legion training worlds/facilities/expeditionary fleets. Moreover, I think the relationship between the Mechanicum and the rest of the Imperium was quite different back then, so other than techmarine training I do not think they really had much of an interaction with the Legions outside of wargear production and joint military expeditions.

Fenbain Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 All the examples of exposed crew I can think of from FW are in their Legion colours.
