SalPyro Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Not the rate of fire, the rites of firing. Think like the Adeptus Mechanus. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/43170-fluff-competition/page/77/#findComment-774953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Sergeant Alasseo Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Holy Emperor, deliver us from the Darkness of the Void, guide my weapon in Your serviceLitany of Smiting, to be recited before firing a projectile weapon, and repeated until the missile finds its target. Spirits in the Machine,Reward my faith And smash the target. Prayer of Smiting, to be used as an alternative to the Litany of Smiting. Both from the Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer. However, Arcanis has not confirmed the accuracy of SalPyro's answer, so technically we're still on Arcanis' question...

SalPyro Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 However, Arcanis has not confirmed the accuracy of SalPyro's answer, so technically we're still on Arcanis' question... US WD 282, page 51, upper right hand corner. I wouldn't have posted the next question if I wan't sure the answer was correct. Your's are close, but not complete. I'm looking for the AM rite for firing, from a much older source. It specifically says what to do with a missile. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/43170-fluff-competition/page/77/#findComment-775045 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalPyro Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Hint 1: It's the Adeptus Mechanus Rite of Firing for a Missile Launcher, as taught to the Techmarines during their training on Mars. Hint 2: It's in the book that covers such esoteric fluff as imperial jetcycles, robots and the Mentor Legion.

Aurelius Rex Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 'With the blood of an enemy shall the marks be made upon the missile. Then bless the missile and present unto the mounting. Say the prayers of firing and curse the target. Do this rapidly lest the wrath of the weapon be wasted. Point the eye of the weapon so that it may see the object of its wrath. When the weapon has cursed and eaten the soul of the victim, then shall you take up the next missile...' Firing rite' (old recension) From the 'Codex Imperialis' article in White Dwarf 105. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/43170-fluff-competition/page/77/#findComment-776893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
