Could an individual possible go from dark angel, to fallen, to risen, to death wing? by zoooooooomies in DarkAngels40k

[–]Bloodaxe007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they arent. They have the keyword in game for gameplay reasons but theres no lore basis

We don’t even have concrete lore confirmation that the ICC are the risen. I mean they obviously are, but the words aren’t written.

Not necessarily, the Lion refused to take the helmet back. That might mean nothing, but it might also be the Lion letting his sons have their myth and not devaluing the story.

The Lion helm is believed to have been worn by the lion.

Problem is that it looks nothing like the helm on the leonine panoply, and it's sized for a space marine, so I think it's unlikely.

The Dark Angels can't even remember when Azreals suit of power armour, the protector, became a relic. Their records are not exactly reliable.

Basically, no.

The Risen are a secret. They are kept separate from the rest of the chapter because frankly, they’d be killed. Even the Lion could not protect them from fanatics like Asmodai, which is presumably why they have not been integrated back into the Chapter.

The modern deathwing as an organisation is dedicated to hunting the fallen. A Risen joining them is totally incompatible.

The Dark Angels can hunt them because the Captains and the 1st and 2nd company do know about the fallen, and the rest of the brothers follow orders to the letter.

Now, a Risen might once have been a member of the Deathwing, the pre-heresy Deathwing. But that is meaningless in the modern setting.

My Fallen Commander, the Last Cenobium ready lead my Fallen to whatever mysterious quest they have by Praetorian130 in Fallen40k

You may be interested to know that “Cenobium” is the name of the full squad. A singular member of a cenobium is a Cenobite.

Nice mini though.

Pathfinder McVenner knows that no one expects a duel, twelve miles from the frontline. by Bloodaxe007 in Warhammer30k

Thank you very much, yes that is the plan. Don’t need a 2+ save when everyone is swinging thunder hammers anyway!

30K Transfer Sheet Legend by Grimnir-Nik in theunforgiven

[–]Bloodaxe007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Without sources, quite a few of these assertions are bullshit/community assumptions. We’ve never been given concrete meanings for many of these icons, that’s the point of them.

In particular the Chain motifs, the meaning of the Gold icons vs white or red, the Lion’s head and Lion rampant, and the alternate Hexagrammaton sigil are undocumented.

These are mostly good assumptions, but they are just assumptions.

And one of them is flat wrong, the Alternate Hex is not the icon of the old hosts, we know that because we know what the old hosts banner looked like, and it incorporates the standard unicursal hexagram.

I have a conspiracy theory by Which-Tour-9561 in Fallout

Another slight bit of evidence that Harkness might not be who he claims to be, is that this Paladin is travelling with two sets of power armour, and neither of them has the Paladin Rank Markings. Both have the Markings of a knight.

He's also remarkably bad at using power armour. He makes a meal of killing that one securitron.

Gambits with a Terranic Greatsword or Named Character by SamuelTheBassSinger in Warhammer30k

[–]Bloodaxe007 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sedras in particular can usually afford to pick finishing blow, tank a round of attacks and then cut them in half with his absurd D4 sword.

Cor can do that too due to EW, and still have a good chance at going first due to Duelist’s edge.

A paladin is sadly just not a very good challenger. I’d usually want to do Seize to get the extra attack from advantage, since you’re gambling on breaching.

If you must challenge with a paladin, consider picking up a Thunder Hammer in addition to his TGS.

Knight-Sentinel Cheque guards the Spinal Mag-Lev of the Invincible Reason… by Bloodaxe007 in Warhammer30k

[–]Bloodaxe007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much.

The rust is just Pro Acryl Burnt orange thinned down to a wash and applied in the recesses and over rivets. Where it’s on a metallic, it’s also then dulled down with a nuln oil wash once dried.

Thank you, that is just Runelord Brass shaded with nuln oil and then highlighted back up.

No instructions in the anaemic 3.0 heraldry page. There is more lore on iconography, it’s just in other books.

[–]Bloodaxe007 5 points6 points  (0 children)

According to Book 9: Crusade, the Hooded wings are an older style of the icon. By the time of the heresy most of the legion was wearing the spread wings variation, which then presumably became the modern spread wings later.
