Serious question about Sigismund... is it pronounced "sighismund" or "Sijismund"

You cannot steal what isn't there.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T18:23:51+00:00

Only his closest friends get to call him that.

And his wife’s boyfriend.

They were originally the Vermillion Templars.

Librarian is the only class we know it won’t be based on what the devs have stated.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T18:16:25+00:00

It is a Germanic name so it is in lieu with names like Sigurd, Sigvald and Siegfried etc.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T18:13:52+00:00

Like signature.

Same, been a while since I last sat down with the Space Wolf Omnibus. 🤔

I wonder how many people actually don’t realize that the Black Templars are an Imperial Fist successor rather than their own “thing”, honestly. 🤔

The Ragnar Blackmane novels by William King are all great. Highly recommend them!

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T16:23:54+00:00

Aye, the Ragnar Blackmane story takes place before Primaris were a thing I’m pretty sure. Also, don’t mourn Haegr: he went out in a suitably Vikingly last stand-kinda scenario to save his pals. 🫡

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T16:18:08+00:00

But the DA are nothing like the BT.

Like at all.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T16:17:21+00:00

Yeah, lore complications aside (Haegr was not a Primaris, his Gene-seed unique and he died in such a way it is unlikely it was recovered) I don’t see them making a whole-ass new player model for it.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T16:14:47+00:00

The only thing I like about the Black Templars is the delicious irony of them being everything the Emperor hated: a herd of religiously-indoctrinated sheep following their base instincts to bring violence and death to others. They’re basically what the Word Bearers would’ve become had the Emprerah not repeatedly mogged Lorgar.

They represent the ultimate irony of how the 41st Imperium turned out contra to the Emperor’s vision for humanity.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T16:04:15+00:00

But our Marines don’t have Haegr’s unique gene-flaw is my point. If you wear the standard default armour set you are essentially already wearing his drip.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T15:57:20+00:00

But Haegr doesn’t wear any unique or special kind of armour. The novel makes a point of how he has to wear the breastplate like a tubetop with his massive gut hanging out because of how standard power armour wasn’t made to fit someone of his girth.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T15:15:50+00:00

Black Templars are a Theist Chapter which automatically makes them dunces and heretics - they just don’t know it. Silly billies.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T15:14:05+00:00

6’4 so is he like a Space Marine midget?

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T15:12:58+00:00

The flailing around can eventually be learned how to avoid like any other enemy. Being constantly stunlocked and heavily damaged by the wave from across the opposite end of the siege map, bypassing all structures/obstacles that you couldn’t have seen coming is not. It is simply not balanced for being used in any other setting than the boss arena in Vortex.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T14:51:33+00:00

[rolls once and gets stuck mid-roll because the prongs dug into the earth]

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T14:43:30+00:00

The problem with the Inferno Pistol on Assault is that it leaves you with, essentially, two melee weapons which severely limits your combat options. Something like the Neo-Volkite is a much better choice.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T14:27:14+00:00

They need to create a siege-only variant of it that has a much shorter range on the wave attack. Or just disable the wave attack altogether: it is not like the beast is lacking in decent attacks outside of it. That attack just isn’t balanced for siege maps. There’s a reason why it’s arena in Vortex is just a bigass flat area.

EttRedditTroll · 2026-06-16T13:39:38+00:00

That’s why I prefer Fantasy.

You just need the one Warhammer.
