of fulgrim?

Yeah

no

It’s better in showing his inherent flaws or smth

That allowed the plot device to snare him

#

But this is a 2nd hand opinion

it kinda sucks because he's shown as a chill guy before the blade

fervent geode
#

Yeah he really was

#

But his arrogance and perfectionism were still hiding beneath

crystal forum
#

if he's going to have a sympathetic origin then his fall should also be sympathetic imo

#

you cant have him turn asshole for no reason

if he was always an asshole then sure it works if he just acts the way he is

His fall is one of the more ass ones imo

# near wasp What's your warbands stick

Early accounts of foundations were at the end of the Heresy and start of Scouring- where a many marines of their legion left to form up the warband for a myriad of reasons (such as not wanting to associate with it, exiled or shit like that)
Iron Warriors were the biggest majority, took control and shaped the warband to form some concept of ranking, hierarchy and "loyalty" to the cause: revenge and destroy everything that stands in their way.
Nowadays they're massive even by big warband standards (nothing like Red Corsairs or Black Legion tho) chaos undivded and recruit/accept anyone from all over the galaxy

#

Their main shtick is obviously ground warfare. They do any strategy necessary to win but are suckers for either battles of attrition or lightning attacks

#

Currently writing up that they're tied to the worship of a homebrew deity I'm making up which tbh its just gonna be reinvented Satan

-# Though, I am missing anything involving Portuguese or Romanian as I am an uneducated lump.

solid horizon
#

Also wdym by "recruit anyone"

near wasp
#

If you do end up using the Jagged Crown as the name for the warband might I suggest a feudalistic system for organization. With each marine landed and having a population of serfs for themselves to maintain and us as they see fit

solid horizon
#

The currency of warbands are slaves and hostages (for their soul) so most of them tend not to accept literally everyone

#

Unless you mean like astartes

rancid cove
# solid horizon Also wdym by "recruit anyone"

Your legion/chapter of origin is not something that will ruin the chances of joining them. But already fully built astartes who join them are remodelled to fit the warbands views and needs by the systematic leaders so they can fit

#

But they take from a myriad of worlds they have managed to conquer to make their own

solid horizon
#

But then the problem witj a globalist warband is that you gotta remember chaos marines are well... chaotic people

rancid cove
#

But they do use human cultists too

How do you ensure there is proper discipline ?

rancid cove
near wasp
#

Honor duels probably, or quests, treat them like knights of old

#

That's my suggestion

solid horizon
#

Achieving discipline especially in a large warband without an extremely trusted and well organized MP is as easy as shooting a fly with a shotgun

rancid cove
solid horizon
#

Call me a nerd or a chud but

#

One of the advantages of tabletop for lorewriting

#

Is that you actually manage an army

#

So you have a better idea of what it's like and how stuff is managed

near wasp
#

Marines are basically knights anyways so I'd just use the same laws that governed knights.

#

Even then the system is quiet good at having rulers be replaced.

solid horizon
#

For example in a large warband I wouldnt dedicate enhancements for cultists who are more or less cash money for dark mech drivebys, I'd allocate a part of my forces to renegade guards who are owners of their own gear

opaque coyote
solid horizon
#

Real

rancid cove
# solid horizon How do you ensure there is proper discipline ?

What also happens is the fact the warband has started these rituals since their foundation and did it time and time again by each millennia, since then multiple rebellions have indeed happened so ofc it doesnt work all the time
Its how the current leader got to power. By dividing and conquering, eliminating the half that didnt meet her expectations or that refused to surrender

solid horizon
#

Chaos divided lol

normal pulsar
#

We love a bit of Chaos

rancid cove
#

Nosferrus is a born manipulator due to her slight psychic awakening

#

Plus chaos undivided do divide a lot

solid horizon
#

So I assume you're going more for the large militia style of warband rather than the usual traditional cult/crew/gang style

rancid cove
solid horizon
#

Yeah so I'd suggest stepping away from ritualistic terms and adjectives in the warband's name and going for something really simple

#

They seem a lot more focused on building a discipline system than anything else

#

Which is what most warbands usually lack

#

Often resulting in their demise

rancid cove
#

The early idea of the warband and even of the current leader is that even in chaos there must be order
Their usual conflicts isn't about raiding for resources, its to conquer

#

They dont invade worlds just kill and dip

#

They kill to take and control

solid horizon
#

So uh do they have any iconic creature or weapon ?

solid horizon
rancid cove
solid horizon
#

Name usually comes from heraldry

rancid cove
solid horizon
#

Something with sword or hammer could fit

#

Since those are part of the discipline symbolics

solid horizon
#

Ressources would imply building infrastructure there or occupying already existing ones

#

Or scavenge

#

Nvm I didn't read the last part properly

#

Yeah well taking over a forgeworld ain't exactly easy either especially if you're mostly infantry based

rancid cove

#

Ahriman has big magical horns

#

Typhus has that one tall ferocious stinky horn

#

Huron has horns on his hand

rancid cove
#

The thing with horns is that Nosferrus thinks its a liability
She's a warrior constantly on the field as well, she's not the type of leader who lays back

#

Its a liability in combat

# solid horizon Cultist turned into marine or marine turned into woman ?

I was thinking of changing her backstory a bit for a marine turned woman tbh
But originally she was a cultist turned marine

Born in one of the planets the warband conquered, taken in for some other purpose; Proved herself worthy in the trials somehow- dark mechanicum and the warpsmith made experiments which created Nosferrus

daring creek
solid horizon
#

I think the symbolic of a woman turning astartes is more powerful because not only it keeps the symbolics of transition

#

But it also makes her a leading female character

unsure now that i changed my warbands lore if ill keep the current symbol

i still think its a banger

It's a good choice because blood angels rely on decals a lot less than other legions

(the magos does not provide decals)

(when ill have money, so in 40000 years)

#

i should have just said they used to make the imperial armour books which are really highly regarded

rancid cove
#

second version just makes the symbol lose a bit of meaning

They're "hunter killer" automata

i still have a dreadclaw to finish assembling which doesnt fit together and its just a fuckin dogshit model

the FW legion contemptor dreads were legit great

Decimator is still very popular, and GW seems to be on a iron warrior theme streak

Alas GW doesn't sell the other weapon options for these guts

Nurgle daemons also have a huge range of FW stuff to get in plastic

hallow saddle

getting custodes in plastic is legit huge tbh

or however you say

arctic talon
#

The accent for mandarin from that region is considered "soft/girly"

#

lol

vagrant fox
#

wack

#

I feel half the dialects I hear of are considered kind of, you know

arctic talon
#

Which is really funny bcs Hokkien is seen as "rough" lol

vagrant fox
#

Then again the vibes I'm getting is that it mostly applies to coastal accents

arctic talon
#

tbh Hokkien + fujian accent is def considered costal

#

for dialect + fujian is costal

#

its just that it had a ton of farming there historically

#

prolly why the dominant mandarin accent in Taiwan is a variation of the Fujian one due to distance lol

vagrant fox
#

Makes sense, I've decided Hokkien are my Chinese brethren. I've a rural accent in two of the languages I speak lmbo

also, on a different note

so notice how the shambler is a perfect example of a junk gun that is both rememberable and believable. most of its parts come from real guns like the stock and the grip which are clearly from an AK. the most important design aspect here is the revolving magazine which is so fucking cool it's unbelievable. it gives the shambler a unique reload style that puts it apart from any pump action gun
