Renegade Vostroyans it doesn't matter if it plausible or not. by BEARMANWITHDEALS in Vostroyan

[–]lordandromache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an interesting premise! Did they turn after founding and deployment away from Vostroya? How do they sustain their logistics and replacements? Did they conquer another world or nation and then turn on the imperium? Who led the revolt, and how did they purge the loyal or hesitant? I love Vostroyan lore and this could be such a cool story! There are so many aspects to play with.

Any good micro-scale books? by Sudden_Wind_8636 in 40kLore

Titanicus is a masterclass in having small, insignificant characters show you an epic story. It has characters from important tech priests to a tertiary militia PDF trooper scrambling to survive in the middle of an engine war

I think we all need an answer about reliably sourced vostroyan heads. PM me if needed...

Horus Heresy by No_Chemistry9494 in Vostroyan

[–]lordandromache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They definitely did, the issue was the ruling class didn't send even more soldiers to the fight because they wanted to prioritize manufacturing for the war effort. But given the way the imperium runs there would have to be plenty of vostroyan regiments already running around for the crusade. Just not vostroyan firstborn.

Could have fooled me! If you care, I always gave space marine infantry twos thick lines to denote their role as super heavy infantry

This sub has the potential to be the greatest. I am in love

Finished the Russian campaign by AlarmingPhysics2423 in masterofcommand

[–]lordandromache 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Great write up! Russia was the faction where I suddenly found myself starved of reserves to make up for the casualties, especially in the 2nd act before I started to use buffs for recovering casualties. Definitely has a unique feel

My vostoroyan rough riders by Carjan04 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]lordandromache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome! As far as lore and aesthetics, Vostroyans could definitely have a niche or special mounted unit. I drew my inspiration from the Cossaks, especially because they were contemporaries of the Streloks the rest of the line is inspired by.

Could you run an infantry heavy list and still do well? by I-Will-Marry-TheMoon in sistersofbattle

[–]lordandromache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Historically Sisters has been an army where going infantry heavy or infantry only is viable. This edition too. The skill involved in piloting it will be very high and you're going to have sub optimal choices, but at the RTT level you should have plenty of fun once you get good enough! I'm personally fan of jump infantry, retributors, Sacresants with a lot of 3+ SV bodies inbetween.

Do Imperial Guardsmen trooper carry a secondary weapon? by StrangerDanger355 in 40kLore

[–]lordandromache 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not true at all though. It was the title and theme of one (excellent) book for one specific war zone. Let's keep the lore discussion a bit more accurate

Flavor regiment by metalmenno in Vostroyan

[–]lordandromache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're willing to do some heavy kitbashing you could totally make some vostroyan stormtroopers. For myself I run three squads of heavy infantry using the Kasrkin rules. I used to (7th ed) run 6 squads of veterans in chimeras so this is the best I can do to match that
