TheWarmaster Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Is anybody else a little sad that the Solar Auxilia never really got any significant air time during the Heresy novel series, or even a novel of their own? I think it would've been really cool to see a little more of them on the page. Noserenda and Marshal Rohr 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 They’re going to keep making stories set in the Heresy, so there’s still hope. TheWarmaster 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be cool to get an Auxilia focussed novel for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grailkeeper Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Be interesting to see how it differs to a guard novel. 30k marines are different to 40k ones. Hopefully they aren't treated as just being the guard with a different name. Different mindset would be interesting to see there too.

They're nothing like the guard in 40k. Everything about them is drastically different. Edited February 29 by TheWarmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly if we do end up getting some books on the Solar Auxila, I don't think they'll be very good, because as you said, everything about them is drastically different. I struggle to believe that any of the BL writers would have read into the fluff enough to do them justice tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noserenda Posted Tuesday at 10:22 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:22 PM (edited) They aren't that different at their core, they come from a more optimistic age and have better toys but they are still human infantry in a horrible place, Kasrkin/Volpone or any other heavy elites are doing the same work since they expanded them out. That and the notorious problems between departments is probably why we haven't seen a book, well, that and then not existing for most the series.

JeffJedi Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago It would be interesting to see humans with a conqueror/explorer mindset instead of the more defensive Imperial Guard. The Angel of Fire books were of like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
