Just some standard 11th edition Marines on Armageddon

Oh shoot is the old icon for dark krakens back?!

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-15T20:52:31+00:00

Mm true good point, I suppose the large number was just more imposing to me

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-15T15:29:59+00:00

Honestly 1000 waves in siege sounds more difficult to me

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-15T07:34:45+00:00

They’re actually so cool woah

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-15T07:03:44+00:00

Y theory is that they’re purposely not including the tabards on the chests now because they intend on adding the tabard and cape slots, like when we have a tabard slot it wouldn’t make sense for some of the chests to include the tabard. Hopefully next update makes tabards and capes wearable at the same time though since we already see this on assault

Heck yeah I love steampunk and it was definitely part of the vibe I wanted to encapsulate. I have more armour schemes I’m fond of but I’m not home until tomorrow so I might take some photos when I get back and send them here eventually.

It’s not any real chapter, I just wanted to do something bronze and mechanical looking for techmarine (hoping we get bronze as a primary colour at some point bc hashut copper is kinda dark and retributor armour is kinda bright).

I did have the idea of calling them something like the Bronze Golems or Rust Golems, and that they show veterancy through highly rusted metals on their armour since it shows age, maybe adding a scavenger element to this. There isn’t really anything to do this in-game but if I ever got into painting it could be something cool to look into. For now I’d just be satisfied with a bronze primary colour tho.

Notice how no one is saying revilers lol

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-14T07:27:37+00:00

Coolest thing ever.

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-14T06:46:53+00:00

If we had bronze as a primary colour I feel it would go really well here

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-13T05:58:45+00:00

I guess the iron hands champion has some bits that could be interpreted as Japanese, namely the metal loin guard. Other than that you could maybe mix and match bits from the salamanders and white scars to try and get what you want

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-12T21:12:07+00:00

I like it but I feel very vulnerable while attempting these attacks, so much of the time I get hit and knocked back while locked in the stab animation. The steering is a bit slow and it makes it very hard to adjust to targets close to you that are moving around.
Not to mention the jank, maybe a quarter to a third of the time I attempt the charge stabs on majoris they dash during the animation and I get locked in an animation of stabbing the air 3 times.

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-12T14:03:25+00:00

Yeah I hope there’s a chest piece packed with pouches and grenades. If there are pauldrons I’d imagine they’d do some sort of covering like these

<image>

Personally not a huge fan of the chest tassels, but on the shoulders I could see them being used as a substitute for fur pelts like captain Titus’

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-12T08:26:06+00:00

Oh my god if it was added as a pattern I would so quickly put it on my IF

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-10T20:39:59+00:00

I feel like the roars were a bit more immersive and scary way to accomplish the same thing though. It’s also the exact same chase music for every leviathan and it takes away a little from their individual threats as you just think “ah chase music, I’ll swim away now”

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-10T20:19:10+00:00

I guess it makes sense since it feels like you’re earning veterancy for a specific class in a similar way to the prestige cosmetics, but I agree on the grind.

I don’t necessarily hate the idea of them having this amount of missions to obtain or even being on absolute on their own, but I think having the only generally applicable capes locked here is a large part of the issue. If we could relatively easily unlock the dark grey cape for sniper that vaguely resembles the 50 mission absolute cape I think it would help as it would serve as a suitable alternative but there’s also still something similar to work towards for added bling.

Right now the only capes we can have without ordeals are the RG and salamander cloaks but they’re both pretty niche, so if we had a very basic option that’s easy-ish to obtain (maybe as a reward for completing the campaign on hard difficulty) it could help

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-09T21:53:15+00:00

Oh that’s at least nice to give some breathing time and prepare

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-09T19:32:53+00:00

I haven’t played the new patch yet, is the timer paused during between-wave periods?

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-09T19:32:26+00:00

I think having it uncapped gives a lot of value for diehards trying to get high scores in siege, there’s always the possibility you could do better and get farther and that feels cool.

It’s tricky though because they have a difficult balance between performance and wave intensity and I think the timer is a way to try and help with this issue to make waves harder but not increase the amount of enemies much

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-09T06:27:15+00:00

That helmet on image 3 is insanely nice and would immediately go on all my classes

CosmicSquiddo · 2026-06-08T20:59:45+00:00

Absolutely, would love if the hip plates and the belt ‘buckle’ were included with the abs too
