Omega Legion DYI chapter


Maladon

Recommended Posts

Well, after much arguing with friends at my local club(actually there wasn't, they liked the idea!) I've decided to go forth an make the Black Omegas or Omega Legion based on the Black Omega Squadron from Babylon 5 tv series.

 

Since of what I remember of watching B5, they(black Omegas) were a elite fighter wing of the Psi Corp... so tranlating this into a space marine chapter is going to be difficult... but using the traits system they are Sombre. With seen but not seen and cleanse and purity. with eye to eye as the disadvantage... can't infiltrate noise!

 

I know that there is alot of people on this forum that seem to think that there is only one marine chapter with the name Omega in the name and that's final.... well there isn't now... now there's two! Get over it! :lol: :o ;)

 

Fluff will be coming I promise.... with a hit of what's to come- Works with the inquisition!

There is no real problem with using Omega. Sure there may be a few DIY Chapters but you are rarely going to bump into them and very few develop their chapters so that everyone knows about them (i.e. SCC's Brazen claws).

 

There are loads of chapters called Sons of X or X Falcons. Its the standard thing to do and even GW has done similar things so its nothing to worry about

I cant see why your friends would dislike your chapter theme. :rolleyes:

 

Actually, its not my friends that have the problem with the theme, its some people on the B&C that have the problem, my friends at the club liked the idea... most of them are fans of B5 and never thought of that idea.

There will always be purists. Look at my link to my DIY and read through the responses. The only answer to give is basically ... too bad ;)

 

It's your Chapter. If you want to share your ideas here then be prepared for praise and criticism.

 

I will be the first to tell you that taking an idea from somewhere else and making 40K fit into it can be a challenge. Some compromise will have to be made unless you can pull it off. Justto let you know ... Battletech and 40K do not fit well ;) So good luck with B5 and 40K :)

Um so some people think that there should only be one chapter with Omega in their name (Omega Marines)?

 

I don't recall ever reading any fluff that said there could only ever be one chapter with Omega in it's name...

 

Stupid crazy people...

 

I agree with you on this, but there are some who don't! ;)
