Great Crusade Great Crusade arms & armaments

[Pacific81]

Hi folks. I'm putting together some of the MKII kits as an early-mid Great Crusade-era force but think I am a bit out of touch on the latest background on what was heavily in use (or what was not) during the Crusade. I did think Saturnine would be the Terminator armour of choice for example, especially for early crusade as the fluff always used to be the early ones were high pressure/reactor suits from the Saturnine fleets adapted for war - however now are they much later, pre-heresy as they were used by Vulkan and the Salamanders at Istvaan? (Although presumably didn't help them much!)

 

I'm compiling a list below of ins/outs, very grateful if anyone has any useful info they can add! Or to correct what I have entered already. 

 

Ins:

- Volkite weaponry

- Plasma weaponry

- 'Hover' vehicles (jet bikes, land speeders etc.)

 

Outs:

- MKV & MKVI armour. (I know technically 'pre-heresy', but would be very late Crusade). 

- Inductii. These programmes were generally initiated as a result of the civil war.
