Also it’s a subgroup

Not the main gang

storm jungle

arctic talon
#

Still cursed it’s that color selection

dusk patrol

I feel like it fits with the gang

But yeah the colors maybe

#

Maybe it’s the Trans Claws

arctic talon

Lol

green loom

It's very funny to me that Empire at War didn't get any sort of cinematic like this but their funny personal IP did

storm jungle
#

dusk patrol
#

No they don’t

#

Now back to the CGI mines

#

Write some code or something nerd

arctic talon

green loom

It's not like CDPR have ever been

dusk patrol

If you changed the guns

green loom

Particularly creative

That’s cause they’re smart

#

They mind their business

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

I’m talking about like at ripper docs

Tbh

storm jungle

vagrant fox

I have to make a stand against the turk

green loom

Looking at a fantasy map going "no one would ever call their country this" and looking at irl maps with things like "Germanland"

storm jungle

Also that yeah

dusk patrol
arctic talon
#

What the fuck is this company LOL

dusk patrol
#

I assume it’s Great Lakes based

#

And makes cutlery

arctic talon
#

I mean yeah

But also wtf lol

green loom

Main Europoors are very odd

green loom

Balkans are okay

That would have been better

arctic talon
storm jungle
crystal forum
#

i never noticed until now that heretic astartes guns in SM2 are HH era counterparts to primaris weapons

#

the plasma incinerator is a plasma cannon

#

the sniper bolter is a nemesis bolter

spring cairn
#

bro opened his eyes

crystal forum
#

i never noticed the names

#

also i thought a nemesis bolter was just a bolter that shoots nemesis bolts

#

i didn't think it was an actual sniper gun

arctic talon
#

It varies

#

Bolt snipers also were a thing pre primaris

crystal forum
#

yes but it's a nemesis bolter in SM2

arctic talon
#

Mhm

crystal forum
#

the weirdest thing is the neo volkite pistol is still neo volkite

#

it's clearly a stolen primaris gun with heretic symbols carved on it

storm jungle
#

Its not like really out of the realm of possibility

crystal forum
#

you're right

#

but i haven't seen it done before

arctic talon
#

It’s pretty common lore wise

#

Lol

#

In arks of omen vashtor when the black legion invaded the rock

#

They were eating good when they broke into part of the armory

crystal forum
#

wouldn't it have made sense to make the heretic version be a volkite serpenta

dusk patrol
#

Also the neo volkite pistol definitely resembles just old volkite pistols

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Also tbf

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

volkite and Neo volkite is like

#

Practically the same

dusk patrol
#

They’re very similar yeah, basically the same thing

arctic talon
#

Neo volkite just is weaker + lacks TUBE to power

storm jungle
#

it only has "neo" because like

dusk patrol
#

In universe I think it’s just cheaper

arctic talon
#

New

storm jungle
#

"we gotta differentiate faction weapons"

arctic talon
#

It’s new

storm jungle
#

no

#

what I said staregryn

arctic talon
#

Space marines get volkite

storm jungle
#

break free fro mteh matrix

crystal forum
#

it's not shittier than OG volkite rigjt

arctic talon
#

And so do admech

storm jungle
#

god damn it

arctic talon
#

But that’s due to using a battery

#

And not a big power pack

dusk patrol
#

It’s a cheaper way to make it

arctic talon
#

It’s a convenance + ease thing

crystal forum
#

volkite weapons use identical batteries thoufh

storm jungle
#

martian raygun goes voom voom

dusk patrol
#

Real volkite is super super expensive in universe

arctic talon
#

Volkite have big battery

#

With tube connecting

#

Neo volkite have smol battery in gun

crystal forum
#

because it's a pistol?

arctic talon
arctic talon
#

Because it’s Neo volkite

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Volkite pistols also have tube

crystal forum
#

i'd like to see a neo volkite rifle

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

Another night

#

Another patrol with you

dusk patrol
#

Hmm

arctic talon
#

But yeah the black legion

#

Stole

storm jungle
#

Also like

arctic talon
#

A ton of primaris guns lol

#

Like

#

It was actively effecting their effectiveness as a fighting legion

#

Since they were busy looting

storm jungle
#

in reality it literally doesnt fucking matter, volcunt is volcunt, they just try to differentiate it for tabletop reasons

dusk patrol
#

Primaris die -> people grab their shit

crystal forum
#

that does make sense but i havent read any post primaris books so i wouldn't know

storm jungle
#

wait i just realised

#

they got the coils wrong!!!!!

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

gonna complain on reddit about this

arctic talon
#

Also wait

gray umbra
#

does this mean csms will stop beltfeeding all their guns

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

Neo volkite has the tube connectors

#

LOL

gray umbra
#

or is it just aesthetic at this point

arctic talon
#

CAWL IS A FUCKING CHEAPSTAKE

storm jungle
#

beltfed is cool shut up

arctic talon
#

BROKE ASS BITCH

dusk patrol
#

CSM are very non standardized

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

They just do what they want

crystal forum
#

i like belt fed bolters

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Or whatever they can get

#

Belt feed looks more ghetto and also kinda plays into that

storm jungle
#

Yeah your average CSM warband works like a big DND party, including all the annoying dumbass users and their questions

crystal forum
#

it's like heretics broke all their magazines so they have to manually make cloth belts

arctic talon
#

I love the ghetto gear tbh

storm jungle
#

stealing and looting included too

#

"ghetto gear" is CRAZY

crystal forum
#

dont ask where the belt goes after firing

dusk patrol
arctic talon
#

It’s what really makes CSM for me

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

They don’t have the supply lines

arctic talon
#

I can call it what it is

dusk patrol
#

Some do

#

But most don’t

gray umbra
#

i am a big fan of the csm models having like 50 different shoulder combinations

storm jungle
#

^

#

Its neat

#

i love homeless marines

dusk patrol
#

Find a home for this poor marine

arctic talon
#

It’s also why my CSM legionaries for KT aren’t Black Legion

spring cairn
#

Chaos Warband down so bad they start throwing rocks at people

crystal forum
#

he got attacked by bees

arctic talon
#

Because I like poor people

arctic talon

dusk patrol
crystal forum
#

it takes 15 seconds to open up SM2 literally unplayable

arctic talon

The lore for my heavy gunner is they stole the heavy bolter during badab from a Star phantom

A real thief in the night

Pathetic

crystal forum

crystal forum
#

it's an innocent word

dusk patrol
#

It is

spring cairn
#

as I always said, all good games run like shit

dusk patrol
#

Except when you use it

arctic talon
#

Did your PC

#

Explode

#

During the sandstorm

gray umbra
#

your sample size is also skewed since every game in the last 10 years has ran like shit lol

dusk patrol
#

Imagine having to worry about optimization

storm jungle
#

Guh I hate my life.

spring cairn
#

bro's paying a fee to play online

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Unironically if I had bought an Xbox and just paid for Xbox live

vagrant fox
#

I'mma put in that link and get free $50 from steam, outta my way gayboy

dusk patrol
#

I would have saved more money still than what it cost to make my pc

crystal forum
#

@storm jungle :3

#

it's literally the same

storm jungle
#

IT-

#

IT DOESNT EVEN HAVE SPIKES

spring cairn
#

I think sir Urgot clicked a link he shouldn't have

storm jungle
#

I assume the implication is its stolen but like lmao

#

at least put some flair on it come on

dusk patrol
#

Tbh that’s what it looks like yeah

arctic talon
#

They looted that shit

crystal forum
#

they just stole it from an ultramarine dilara give them time to make it more edgy

dusk patrol
#

Covered in blood too lol

arctic talon
#

I wish it had spikes

#

Tbh

storm jungle
#

volk yourself

arctic talon
#

But it’s not bad

dusk patrol

Maybe the guy who stole it wasn’t a hack like you guys smh

arctic talon
arctic talon
spring cairn
#

when will they make yolkite

dusk patrol
#

When you start going to the gym

spring cairn
#

i do

arctic talon
#

Do you think CSM get really good at painting those symbols

dusk patrol
#

Go more

spring cairn
#

5 days a week

arctic talon
#

Or do they have stencils for them

dusk patrol
#

You’re wasting time here right now when you could be gyming

crystal forum
#

at least they spiked the plasma gun

#

plasma, famously stable weaponry

arctic talon
#

Tbf

#

That’s like

dusk patrol
#

It went to therapy

#

So it’s ok now

arctic talon
#

A really fucked up plasma gun

#

That’s not even a plasma cannon lol

gray umbra
#

i like their teeth picatinny rail

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

Isn’t that the heavy plasma

#

Or whatever

#

Idk

spring cairn
#

it shoots red eevil plasma

crystal forum
#

this is the "heavy plasma gun"

#

not even a cannon

spring cairn
#

instead of the good guy blue plasma

crystal forum
#

it looks primaris somehow

arctic talon
#

I like it

#

Tbh

#

Orange and red plasma are so funny to me

crystal forum
#

at least the heavy bolter is good old chunky

arctic talon
#

I do like how fucked up looking

#

The CSM guns are

#

Like they look weird in a good way

crystal forum
#

here is the nemesis as mentioned

#

just a sniper

arctic talon
#

Yeah that’s

#

Weird

crystal forum
#

man my discord is all messed up

#

this is the las fusil, never heard of it

#

super weird looking

#

like a lascannon on steroids

spring cairn
#

i like the can of evil juice

crystal forum
#

the tactical mountain dew

arctic talon
#

Las fusil is lore wise not made by Cawl

#

For some cursed knowledge

crystal forum
#

lmao

#

this one i never heard of too

arctic talon
#

I do love the look of the CSM one

#

It looks custom made

arctic talon
crystal forum
arctic talon
#

Yeah

crystal forum
#

the scope is like those really old sniper scopes

arctic talon
#

It almost feels homemade

#

Tbh

crystal forum
#

not WW1 but still

spring cairn
#

Cawl should be hanged and quartered for making whatever the fuck the desolator's gun is

storm jungle
#

Nerfcessors*

crystal forum
#

this is the heaby bolt pistol

spring cairn
#

Cawl is a perpetual and used to design guns for Nerf back in our times

raven stone
crystal forum
#

one of his merged personalities was a toymaker

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

There’s a chance

storm jungle
#

I do hate tho like

#

how you can tell these are all based on primaris guns

#

not firstborn gear lol

arctic talon
#

Wdym

crystal forum
#

sadly multiplayers doesnt have the grenade launcher bolter

storm jungle
#

you fucking git

arctic talon
#

Oh

crystal forum
#

so no heretic v

raven stone
storm jungle
#

Yeaaaah

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

ah well it is what it is

arctic talon
#

Or rather

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

Unconventionally sourced

#

It does look weird though

#

Nemesis bolter is fine

#

That thing literally has never existed in art or on minis

#

Lol

crystal forum
#

just a classic bolter

raven stone
#

Yus

spring cairn
#

it looks like a bolter

crystal forum
#

called a boltgun because eh

spring cairn
#

of the bolt weapon variety

arctic talon
#

Boltgun and bolter

spring cairn
#

the kind that shoot bolts

arctic talon
#

Are interchangeable

#

Lol

storm jungle
#

wheres my belts!

#

RAAAARGH

crystal forum
#

this one is straight up a primaris bolter

#

with the round thing

arctic talon
spring cairn
arctic talon
gray umbra
#

i like the rail system on it

arctic talon
#

They just stole that shit

#

And adorned it to their liking

crystal forum
#

the heaby bolt rifle is just called defiled and they added their own scope to it

#

it looks like an elongated bolter

arctic talon
#

I mean

crystal forum
#

like they were trying to manufacture their own heavy bolter

arctic talon
#

It is basically just a looong bolter

#

Wonder how they did it

winter vessel
crystal forum
#

you can tell it's not just a stolen heavy bolter like the neo volkite is

spring cairn
#

i mean

#

it does look a lot like one

crystal forum
#

also what if the neo volkite looks so basic because they didnt want to make a new model for a post release gun

arctic talon
#

This feels like

#

They took inspiration from an in universe sense

#

Like a csm saw the heavy bolt rifle

#

And decided to make his own

crystal forum
#

yeah like they actually tried manufacturing it

winter vessel
#

the box magazine on a Heavy Bolt Rifle, my mind just defaults to an M240

crystal forum
#

like CSM are adapting to primaris

arctic talon
#

CSM are also using dif rounds for their bolters now

#

They’re using ones based on the heresy era ones often

#

Since they’re running into marines more

#

Normal bolt rounds in lore aren’t ideal for killing power armored targets

crystal forum
#

interesting

winter vessel
#

I mean, does the minor blessings of chaos give the CSM a slight advantage with their weaponry?

arctic talon
#

There were a bunch of weird bolt rounds made during the heresy in an attempt to better murder marines

arctic talon
#

But those usually just make you better

#

Rather then your gear

dusk patrol
#

The traitors made the banestrike or whatever rounds first and used them on Istvaan, desgined to pierece marine armor, which gave them an edge.

arctic talon
#

Yeah

crystal forum
#

pretty much all the scoped variants are just bolters with extra gear

#

pretty boring

winter vessel
#

I like how the banestrike is attached to the hip with a limb attachment, makes me think of the smart gun Colonial Marines use in Aliens

crystal forum
#

they tried to make the melta rifle look HH

arctic talon
arctic talon
#

It looks like a weird melta pattern

crystal forum
#

it looks better than the plasma attempt

dusk patrol
#

Its not like all traitor gear is heresy era

arctic talon
#

Yeah that also

dusk patrol
#

It can be from whenever

arctic talon
#

They’re still making new gear

#

Or having fallen traitors bring in stuff

dusk patrol
#

Its jerry rigged, corrupted, taken from many different eras.

arctic talon
#

Or just theft

crystal forum
#

im just surprised by the nemesis bolter, that's lost tech right

arctic talon
#

No

#

Just fell into disuse

crystal forum
#

this is a pretty cool kitbash for nemesis bolter

winter vessel
#

"brother, i am handless"

crystal forum
#

i could glue some intercessor scopes on my tactical marine bolters....

#

those scopes look so goofy on intercessors

#

i just dont get why the bolt rifle needed a scope

#

it's the primaris bolter

#

but primaris dont get "generic" gear so i guess it had to look specialized

winter vessel
#

it gets a pass for me. The occulus though, the scope is so blocky

dusk patrol
#

Its got a bunch of senors and shit.

#

There's a part in one of the books where a marine sets it up to maintain overwatch for him over an area

crystal forum
#

i actually like the occulus it looks like it has a rangefinder

dusk patrol
#

No, just notifies him of any movement and what not

#

He just sets up the scope

crystal forum
#

while he's aiming it?

#

or like he put the scope down

dusk patrol
#

No he removes the scope and places it down

crystal forum
#

that's pretty cool

dusk patrol
#

So it can view a whole wide area

arctic talon
#

Good cogitator

winter vessel
#

i do wish there was an assault bolter in SM2

crystal forum
#

that's heavy

winter vessel
#

but those are for inceptors

crystal forum
#

it's gravis

#

but yeah phobos got 2 classes

winter vessel
crystal forum
#

it's gravis armour still

dusk patrol
#

It allegedly will be a secondary option for some classes.

crystal forum
#

oh great class options

arctic talon
#

When do we get our chaplain class

#

Ngl I wish Leandros like

#

Did stuff in the campaign other then yap

dusk patrol
#

Probably gonna be apothecary first.

crystal forum
#

support type

winter vessel
arctic talon
#

Like genuinely he’s whatever

#

If the chaplain wasn’t Leandros he’d be forgettable

#

Should have made him do something interesting

dusk patrol
#

But unclear, they said they're tying to do the main roadmap stuff first and itll take a while since theres so much work that needs to be done for each new class.

crystal forum
#

what was the datamined second class for tactical

rose thorn
#

Hey is there any armies that have a good stealth detachment? With a lot of deployment gimmicks and teleports and stuff

dusk patrol
#

There isn't one

crystal forum
#

aw

dusk patrol
#

Its a new class

crystal forum
#

i'd like classes to have sub types

dusk patrol
#

Apothecary and Chaplain are the two they've said they'd like to do.

crystal forum
#

are they really planning such big changes to the game

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

Necrons?

dusk patrol
languid meadow
#

Yeah they can teleport some stupid units iirc

dusk patrol
#

I'd expect maybe Techmarine might be there too.

crystal forum
#

space marines have a lot of stealth units because they have everything

#

except more gravis

rose thorn
#

Ah

crystal forum
#

they have a stealth dreadnought that's not actually a dreadnought

arctic talon
#

Is the funny teleport one

rose thorn
#

I swore it was either agents or guard that had teleport tanks

crystal forum
#

wha

arctic talon
#

Agents can teleport tanks

#

Guard cannot

#

Well “teleport”

rose thorn
#

Ah gotcha

crystal forum
#

this is guard

arctic talon
#

The flavor for the agents

#

Is it’s getting picked up by a plane and dropped

crystal forum
#

guard cant afford teleporting

rose thorn
crystal forum
#

arent planes bad in 10th

arctic talon
#

Also guard have a

#

Sort of stealthy one

arctic talon
#

But most of them are

crystal forum
#

you could field tanith units

arctic talon
#

It’s also not actually being picked up by a physical mini

rose thorn
#

The Corvus black star isn’t bad especially since it lost unique

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

It’s just flavored

#

As I forgot which vehicle

winter vessel
#

ah the corvus black star

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

Coming down swooping in. Picking up the tank and redeploying it

But the index detachments are still allowed

storm jungle
#

I do love the entire aspect of tabletop of like

rose thorn
#

They killed like half of the Slaanesh units

storm jungle
#

you are minding your business

#

then GW makes a random update

#

"Oh I cant run these anymore huh catwar "

#

haha nerds

rose thorn
#

Most of the characters, all the vehicles, and the half human demon seekers are dead in 40K

#

For Slaanesh

dusk patrol
#

Unfortunately when GW makes an update the models disappear and the older rules go up in smoke, and you can't play them again.

storm jungle
#

Wouldnt be me

languid meadow
#

"hey lets not progress the lore in any meaningful way so people can still use their models" obliterates models anyway

dusk patrol
#

It affects tourneys, and people I don't care about playing with anyways at my LGS

crystal forum
#

at least with killteam they announce when the models will be shelved

winter vessel
#

oh speaking of KT, i gotta place my order for Temp Aquilons

dusk patrol
#

In general I don't care a ton of 10e anyways, I expect 11e they'll start adding more depth back to the game.

#

The streamlining and trimming of fat needed to happen but its definitely a bit much.

Azumgi means Battle human i'm p sure

Calling humans monkai without ever knowing what a monkey is

Sorry actually Azumgi is a compliment yeah

winter vessel
#

Umgi is Umgi

storm jungle

Yeah that

dusk patrol

Its like sturdy human or something.

storm jungle

all of bardin's names are nicknames

Zharrin is the female gender word for fire

what's the name again

Grimgi means harsh

storm jungle
#

Azumgi

spring cairn
#

grimbordill

crystal forum
#

i prefer urist

spring cairn
#

whatever's the name for dwarf language

dusk patrol
#

Zharrin

'zharr' = fire, 'rinn' = noblewoman -> 'fire lady'. Alternately, 'drin' = path or road, so maybe like 'fire path' or 'fire conduit'

Azumgi

'azul' = (literally) metal, (figuratively) dependable or sturdy, 'umgi' = human -> 'sturdy man' or 'dependable man'

Wutelgi

'wut' = wood, 'elgi' = elf, so just wood elf

Grimgi

'grim' = harsh or unyielding, + umgi -> 'harsh man'

#

Here's a breakdown of them

rose thorn
#

OH I should play KO, I already have some

#

They got teleports

are arbities in lore ordo hereticus?

they arent in any ordo

they're adeptus arbites

their own thing

They are a seperate Adeptus

rose thorn

Oh okay, rules wise they were grouped with hereticius

crystal forum

agents

rose thorn

Agents being weird

crystal forum
#

they work for inquisitors sometimes

#

eisenhorn had one as a close friend

rose thorn
#

Crazy that imperialis fleet is the only real detachment

opaque coyote
#

If they can clean things up, great

#

If they can't, that deserves an Inquistion call

rocky gale
#

Each world will have their own enforcers and police, but the Arbites are like the Feds, they got juristiction everywhere

Of course, Heresy can range from an actual serious Chaos Cult, a Genestealer incursion

To uh

I should buy more kruleboyz, then I’ll get my heard straight

i think they're the infantry units of agents

rose thorn

Yeah

crystal forum

they also come with doggo

arctic talon

Voidsmen, arbites and like

I’m just a bit confused how you do homebrew lore for agents

I forgot what the other option was

Breachers

i thought breachers and voidsmen were expensive

#

points wise

opaque coyote
arctic talon

Tabletop wise not super for agents

opaque coyote
#

Only by technicality

crystal forum
#

like elite infantry

arctic talon
#

Agents get a discount

#

On their shit

rose thorn
#

It is just weird to run grey knights in a not grey knights army

crystal forum
#

it isnt

#

grey knights work for ordo malleus i believe

rose thorn
#

Yeha but you can use them in any of the detachments

opaque coyote
crystal forum
#

you'll rarely see grey knights not accompanied by an inquisitor

rose thorn
#

Put them in the ordo xenos or the RT

arctic talon
#

They make sense fluff wise in the malleus and maybe the heretic is one

#

Otherwise no

#

Imo

rose thorn
#

Also their existence is super weird

#

Because they are the only 1 of two Ordo malleus units

crystal forum
#

they have more important things to do than fight xenos

rose thorn
#

In the army

opaque coyote

rose thorn
#

The terminators and coteaz

Gotta take a break from Hellbeasts and crush some Ork's skull

rose thorn

The two malleus units in the game

A nice change of pace

rose thorn
#

Weirdly Draxus and Greyfax gets buffs too

But that’s also just because all the ordos buff all inquisitors

They shall become stronger!

you run a warhound

Do they count as agents?

and then you fill out the rest of your points with the RT retinue

they're not agents

but its a legal army

LOL

Lmao

a warhound and his ant friends

its like the "where genestealers" army

a warhound, Brood bros

that got patched out unfortunately

How is the army of models from other armies still completely undercooked

Like what the fuck is this lol

#

why are navy breachers and the vigilant squad battleline

but Voidsmen and battle sisters not

Because voidsmen at arms are 5 models

# arctic talon You forgot the funniest option Mags

Imagine being some random Chaos Cultist.

You're almost ready to begin the insurrection, but you hear a knock on the door. More recruits for the blood God perhaps? You unlock the door and peer open. You see a man in strange looking clothes and an I on his chest.

"Hello 'eretics!"

You look up and see a gigantic machine towering over you. There is a trail of destroyed hab blocks and buildings. How did it even get down here? This is the underhive!

Then it lets out a roar, and it's the last thing you ever hear.

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

That comes with a killteam

crystal forum
#

most agents are just retired killteams

#

♻️

it'll be another 2 years

I doubt this army be in 11th

arctic talon
#

also

#

the rotation is

#

so fucking weird for KT

#

because they're explictly still updating the rules and giving regular balance changes

#

for the KT's "out of rotation"

crystal forum
#

just no tournament

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

so like

#

why even ahve the rotation in the first place

#

is my question

#

its such an odd choice

crystal forum
#

also rules will be updated less frequently whatever that means

gray umbra
crystal forum
arctic talon
#

okay

#

but most tournaments aren't run by GW

#

and they aren't using the rotation rules

#

so

crystal forum
#

it's so they can put less effort balancing rules

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

not really lol

#

they already don't do a ton for KT

#

We get like

#

the quarterly slate and thats it

crystal forum
#

i garantee you the rules for "retired" teams will be unbalanced as hell

rose thorn
#

Oh yeha anyone excited for the idoneth reveals around the corner?

because Legends is literally balanced fine this edition

#

Genuine question. Do Ghosts exist in 40k?

#

Even as like "warp spirits"

arctic talon
#

yes

opaque coyote
#

Daemons don't really count. Mainly talking about like ghosts that were people that

#

Died

Instead of being birthed out of some chaos God

#

Uhh

rose thorn
hexed orchid
#

Yes, they do exist. They appeared in the 4th Uriel ventress novel

opaque coyote
#

Kinda

#

The apparitions of her

#

Although I do wonder how much if it is an echo of the past and how much of it is like

#

Her

#

But ig that's the question that's being proposed

arctic talon
#

does it matter?

#

it calls itself Lotara

opaque coyote
#

True

arctic talon
#

it has some of the traits of Lotara

#

I'd say the horrifying flesh mass and ghost controlling the conqueror's true bridge are Lotara still

#

even if the origina Lotara is long dead biologically she lives on

#

in whatever state this is

#

I do like how Kharn the entire time was basically like

"Oh Khorne fucking dammit I have to interact with another- Heyyy Lotara (#91)!"

Has it ever been confirmed that 40k era IoM cannot manufacture the Solar Aux armour?
Or is it just something they have the schematics to, but mothballed?

Ok, so it still makes sense if a RT has a copy of it somewhere and manufactures it in very limited numbers for her own house troops. Thx
