Deacis Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Hey all, I'm thinking of having a serious attempt on creating a new Space Marine chapter soon with a full background to work from before I start modeling and work out all the details of how I want them look like and what their tactics are and stuff. I read some tips already on this board, but I still have some practical questions about the how Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/83579-creating-a-diy-chapter/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kastellan Kong Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Yes the date of the 26th and last founding is 738M41 so if you have your Chapter created then they will still have been in existance for over 200 years. There is a a trait in the new Dex (which i can't for the life of me remember the name of, I'm at work and my Dex is at home ;) ) which you can use to represent new or decimated chapters. It restricts the number of elite choices you can take - I think :tu: I'm sure some of the more knowlegeable members will correct me if I'm wrong.The traits StormDragon is talking about are Aspire to glory (a major drawback, perfect for representing recently founded chapters) and Faithful unto death (a minor drawback, representing chapters that have taken grievous losses)... Also, the timeline is quite accurate... But it seems that the 13th black crusade is missing (could be that the timeline was printed in 1999, oh well)... :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/83579-creating-a-diy-chapter/#findComment-968361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
