Will the Forge World release models based on


Azorius

Recommended Posts

The Crimson Paladins - guards of Sangs stuff

Angels Tears - Alternate Destroyers

The Burning Eye's - Sang's unit of secret police, assassins and spies - the only ones without rules

The Sanguinary Guard are just command squads rules wise

 

as for the white scars they are all covered by unit's already,

The Karaoghlanlar are just the name given to Destroyers,

The Burgediin Sarhvu are the Falcon's Claws included in the book,

The Kharash are the Ebon Keshig included in the book,

The Uhaan Solban are any dreadnought in the legion,

The Akoghlanlar are the legions Apothecaries,

so they are all covered.

The units with rules will get models at some point. Forge world aren't known to be overwhelmingly organised with their schedule so i wouldn't hold out hope for it being soon.(just ask us alpha Legion and imperial fists players who had to wait four years for a primarch)

I think each Order of the White Scars should be given their own distinctive rule, in the same fashion Ebon Keshig is different from 'normal' Catapractii Terminators, or Elerim is different from 'normal' Destroyers. 

 

Why.

 

Why should some legions get every facet of their culture fleshed out by models while others don't?

Because the BA and WS have, unlike many other Legions, fleshed out lore of their specialized Orders. 

 

That still doesnt merit them gaining full model support for everything; thats assigning a fair amount of production resources to something that is unlikely to sell in appreciable quantities when players could just use their creativity and imagination in assembling such models themselves.

 

I mean, for the most part, the only real differences with these orders verses their more standardized counterparts are heraldry and where they fit into the command hierarchy; not so much that they are SO divergent they deserve their own bespoke rules/models.

Right, like the order of ruin for thousand sons isn't a thing from the last book. The dodekatheon and other various subfactions of it shouldn't be represented for the iron warriors. The ultramarines secret police, raven guard nomad fleets and sable brand moritat, night lords atrementar; they're all not fleshed out like the few blurbs for the ba and ws

Things may be fleshed out in future books, such as the ultramarines secret police in the shadow crusade etc. Forgeworld said that if possible as they increase the black books they will add units/change rules as the ehresy progresses, so its entirely possible, but we will have to wait until after book 9 to see what forgeworld is planning

Blood angels are literally only lacking the secret police unit. You can easily represent them with seekers or veteran squads. Why not convert some or homebrew your own rules?

the UM secret police is a rite of war and with a little leniency from who you're playing against you could use the same RoW for the BA one or use some house rules to play a small game without unit cohesion unless FW release some skirmish rules if I haven't missed them that is

That makes... Zero sense.

 

The UM secret police are human auxilia. Trained men of Mcragge, part of Guilliman's empire.

 

The BA secret police are from the legion itself. Actual Astartes.

Actually Vigil Opertii dudes are failed aspirants with some level of astartes augmentation. But humans still.

As for BA "secret polce" I think it's MAYBY just a chaplain corps+. Like that guy in Fear to thread that was non-stop stalking Kano because he was a former librarian?

The Chaplains are Wardens, are openly visible with the black armour and skull helm and oddly not mentioned at all in malevolence.

 

As for the Vigil Opertii RoW i was thinking small amount of actual SM's, also the Vigil Opertii is basically the same as The Burning Eye's in the counter-insurgency and policing operations way, with the Burning Eye's

I assume they will get models way down the line. Anuj said we're less than half way done so all legions should have a new book where they feature prominently.

 

The boat might have sailed for loyalist units of traitor legions like the sun killers of the third though.

The BA secret police Icon is identical to the RT field police icon

Seeing as the others are just normal legionaires with fancy weapons, just use any model you want in the field police scheme.

 

Ideal rules are chaplains, vigilators, seekers, delagatus, etc.
