Bad WK.

Also considering we spent less than a page talking about his last awesome entry and went right back to bleating about 2, he can take his sweet time with this.

Think I'm gonna start talking about 3 as soon as 2 launches, just to dick with you all.

Can I start on the map?

Wasn't pressuring him at all. I was curious. Thanks for the assumption though

To be fair, its not a difficult one to make in here.


And Kharne, if two is smaller than one, that means three needs to be smaller. So something the size of a football field. Four will be an actual tabletop.

WK, if you don't intend to do CSM next crusade do you mind if I steal the wulfen berzerker idea? One of my characters is a rogue apothecary who likes to experiment with the geneseed of various chapters, and it would makes things more interesting between me and Jhe.

Go ahead. It's fine with me

Honestly, I've got no idea.

Given that fleet one alone took a week, and the ground war will be larger, featuring more forces in more detail, it could easily go to two or three weeks since posting of the last section. This week for me will be difficult to write a lot, what with my weekend being rather busy, but I should get a fair bit of time next week. I am working on it when I get free time though.

Seems to have a few heretics to kill....

Take your time Smudge, I'm sure it will be worth the wait. I wouldn't have the patience to write for every faction in the crusade, so I appreciate the work you're putting into it.

Question about CoF 2... Those ruins, would people who have not landed on the planet have heard that there was once a SM deployment on Crion?

I'm trying to think of a nice tie in for my Admech. That perhaps they have come down to look for bits and pieces left behind by those marines, and older tech.

Yeah, the Blood Dragons were once a chapter of some renown in this region of space

If they like older tech then they're going to love my Knights. Pretty much every single one of them is an older pattern Knight

Sounds like even if they don't get their paws on anything, they'll enjoy the Easter egg hunt. I'll have to see if I can sneak them to various sites for a dig around. And likewise, reward anyone who stumbled upon bits.

And huzzah for knight archeotech!

"Hmmm, it sure would be nice if we had one of *those* things, would it not, my friend?", the Sorcerer muzed, as they watched the column of Knights march into battle.

Lord Breacher watched the titanic Knight suits, eyeing their proud archeotech forms, each a testament to the skill of their makers. Beautiful, ancient, terrifying machines that brought relentless death and destruction to their enemies with the grace and resplendance of the feudal knights that roamed the Knight Worlds.

A crooked smile formed on the old Iron Warrior's lips.

"Don't tempt me, Sorcerer. You might receive more than what you asked for..."


In short: be afraid.

Very afraid.

Do I need to worry about you trying to jack my Knights Ezra?

I'm sleeping with one eye open

I will literally attempt to steal everything you, the Imperials, the Chaos Space Marines or the Adeptus Mechanicus fail to bolt to the floor.

I'd make a meme out of that, but the Remnants already stole those, too.

No one can get past a space wolf sentry. No one

You underestimate my power...

...also, you do realise I'll just steal the Space Wolf too, right? The Remnants can always use some more crazy Berzerker types

Jhe. We found our first target. We must kill the Remnants

Not to self: try not to make enemies before the Crusade has even started.

Although that's pretty much what I did in this one as well; I still fondly remember trolling the Deathwatch and the Iron Warriors with that fake staff

It was a good trolling.

I have elements of several chapters... maybe we can strike a deal?

I'm not letting you in my part of the base...

Technically I already did....

Meanwhile, the 85th steals a Remnant, while they themselves are getting stolen by an other Remnant, the universe implodes.

If the Universe implodes I'm going to make sure I take down some Remnants before I go. Nobody threatens to steal my stampy death walkers, not even jokingly. Nobody

Unfortunately, they were all taken away.

Do I need to blow up the 85th now too? Feth. The New Crusade hasn't even started yet and everyone already wants to steal my Knights

You'll have to find them.

Good thing no one wants my knights...

It's because you don't have the cool, older Knight patterns like I do.

Mine wear kilts, they are cooler.

But mine have giant flame cannons. Your kilt cannot match fire.
