So im allready looking ahead to my next, next project (next is Space wolves... just something about wolves ill tell you.) And i've been looking abit at the pre-heresy stuff floating around lately, thanks to forgeworld and all that, and decided i would go ahead with something based off there. I wasn't really sure which leigon i wanted to work off of though, I wanted to do something that i haden't seen alot of around, so that narrowed down the more comman legion/chapters. As i read up on lexicanum about the Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus/Black Legion, the idea struck me, When the Sons of horus turned to chaos following Horus, there were those in the Legion who didnt agree, The loyalists reverted back to being the Luna Wolves. Though most were killed at Isstvan, There were still some who survived, and i thought that could produce a unique chance to play with. If these loyalists were caught in a warpstorm and brought forwards in the timeline, say 10,000 years or so..

But what im having difficulty with now, is figuring out exactly what sort of force they would be. It's been a long time since i started reading Horus Rising (and never finished..) So i dont really know, where they a more assault based contingent? Ranged based? Or something inbetween? How did, and would, they opperate, and which codex might best represent them?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3295995.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3295995.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296058.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296058.page GMT CSM dreads, defilers, oblits, plaguebearers and thousand sons. Emp's children are questionable, depending on how you do fluff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296125.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296125.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296139.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296139.page GMT and would make for an awesome looking captain.
Could you still use the Chaos Codex for it? Or definitely a Marines feel to your style?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296269.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296651.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296651.page GMT SM codex easily enough, and focus on the elements you know. Otoh, the blood angel codex would work well as they're a fast hitting army with lots of jump packs and speed.

Seems like a win win. You also have decent assault marines with access to cheap plasma pistols and VERY cheap melta bombs. I think it covers his suggestion VERY well, plus...no psykers. Win-Win?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296842.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3296842.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301772.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301772.page GMT Ragnar's rules would be quite appropriate for Garviel Loken.

Also Librarians were used up until the Emperor banned them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301856.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301856.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301919.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301919.page GMT
Drop pods, quick attacks at the enemy leadership, shock troops.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301925.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301925.page GMT BA codex it would work quite well, i'm sure i remember several conversations in the Loken books about peoples 'choler' and 'feeling the the hand of the ship upon me' That says to me that the Lunar Wolves had some occasional problems with lost tempers. I dunno, just spitballing! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301935.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3301935.page GMT BA would work well enough too. A mix of assault squads, and back up fire support. Just stay away from the Death Company, Sanquinary stuff..]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3305152.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/395634/3305152.page GMT
