In the SM codex it shows the Librarius has the Chief Librarian, Epistolaries, Codicers, Lexicaniums and Acolytum.

I remember the Chief, Epis, Codis and Lexis from back in RT as actual selectable options in the army list. Do these roughly map to Level 1 - 4 psykers? So we can (generally) only field Lexis (level 1) and Codix (level 2)? Would that make sense? I want my fluff to be reflected in my army, so that might mean making my libs only Lexis and Codis.

I assume the Acolytum are 'trainees'?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270350.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270350.page GMT Librarian 'Levels' in fluff lvl 4 is like... Eldrad or Ahriman. I would recommend considering them more along the lines of the differences between a Scout, Marine, Veteran, and Chapter master that also happen to have access to psychic disciplines.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270708.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270708.page GMT Librarian 'Levels' in fluff RT and 2nd edition they did match up, more recently not so much: The 5th edition Codex didn't specifically define the basic (level 1 equivalent) Librarian as being a Lexicanum or Codicier, but the upgrade (level 2 equivalent) was specifically stated to be an Epistolary.

All of the current plastic Librarian models have Epistolary markings sculpted onto the loin cloth or cloak. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270712.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270712.page GMT Librarian 'Levels' in fluff ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270713.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270713.page GMT Re:Librarian 'Levels' in fluff

I think I'll go with my Lvl 1s being Lexis or Codis and my Lvl 2 being an Epi.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270804.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8270804.page GMT Librarian 'Levels' in fluff

Only in 2nd edition was that the mapping. 1st edition made it random (so you could have a wildly-powerful Lexicanian and a Chief Librarian who wasn't actually all that powerful).


We are equally incorrect: 1st edition Librarians in power armour had random psychic level. Terminator librarians however had fixed level. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8271043.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/670946/8271043.page GMT
