And to begin where I left off with Mars, I've had a thought for Alex and Niklaas versus Cybernetica automata and thralls. Specifically a bit where Niklaas gets his hammer snagged in a falling machine and is attacked before he can retrieve it, so he goes to work with his hands. Not in the Daer'dd sense, but redirecting attacks so he's ramming power fists, claws, blades ect. smashing into other automata. Then one last Ursarax comes at him, Niklaas sighs... and promptly puts his hand through its visor and relieves it of its cerebral cortex.

 

Alex: (chuckling grimly) "Out, out, vile jelly."

 

Niklaas: "The Bard got some things right."

Heh, I like it. 

 

I celebrate this new thread with a victory for my Blood Angels.

[Kelborn]

RIP General Discussions... You were always kind to us...oh...hellooooooo GD2. Looking good today.

Which Legion of us does make use of Ursus Claws? 'Zerkers for sure. Do we want to limit this? In canon, the Carcharodons make use of them as well so they aren't restricted to World Eaters (fluff wise) anymore.

*edit*
It's Sambedi, not Samedi.

Before I go to bed, I have one last announcement. Due to increasing RL responsibilities, Redd is unable to establish the wiki at this time. As such, it is open game to anyone who has the know-how and the time to start the wiki.

[Raktra]

60k 'serkers? Boy are you trippin'. It's about 140k, the original 60k was the Shepherds who broke off (which I'm knocking down to about 45k).

[Chief Captain Redd]

As whom has mentioned using Ursus Claws in our verse, the only one I know for sure is the Iron Bears (Lotara is Captain of the Dragon even), Lions might as well.

[bluntblade]

Raktra might've had some Berserker ships using them.

[Sigismund229]

Lions don't use ursus claws

And didn't Grifft start a wiki for us?

Edited by Sigismund229, 12 January 2017 - 08:41 AM.

[Kelborn]

I'm considering to use Ursus claws in either the 8th Brotherhood or the Predators Legion as well.

Not as a standard equipment but for a couple of ships to underline certain themes, for example the Bloodlords or the merciless way of void warfare by the 8th.

 

Ok?

[bluntblade]

If I recall the Titan Legio Audax pioneered them. Are they more widely used by Titans as well?

I did some very basic stuff. What I have done is available here, though it needs changing/updating with the Predators and Steel Legion info. Also it has a potentially quite small limit of 100MB of total size. However if it comes to it I can make a 'hub' wiki and build a selection of 'satellite' wikis off that for various topics to have room to expand further.

 

If anyone has any difficulties with the above site, or can't edit things, message me and I'll do my best to fix the problem.

[Skalpynock]

I need to make a strong propaganda effort against the idea that the Void Eagles have a homeworld.

[bluntblade]

60k 'serkers? Boy are you trippin'. It's about 140k, the original 60k was the Shepherds who broke off (which I'm knocking down to about 45k).

I'll rectify it

[Raktra]

Waiting on a reply from the artist still, he's been silent on FB the past few days.

[Hesh Kadesh]

The Drowned make use of Ursus Claws on their ships. Seems among the most appropriate of all the legions at first.

[Talonair]

What exactly is an Ursus Claw?

[Grifftofer]

Big space harpoons (pretty much) you shoot enemy ships with them and pull them in close for boarding actions

[Raktra]

Remind me to hit you next time I see you.

Pretty much a dreadclaw on a cable.

[bluntblade]

Grifft, just read Betrayer. Because you need to

[MikhalLeNoir]

Grifft, how can I edit the Wiki?

[~Drakzilla~]

For what it's worth, I just set up a very barebones fandom wikia for the BoTL, so that may have more potential for expansion, since there's no size limit afaik.

http://botl.wikia.co...f_the_Lost_Wiki

[bluntblade]

Neat

[~Drakzilla~]

Okay, little by little I've been making the front page of the wiki a bit more presentable, but someone more knowledgeable than I should probably fill in the background on the project.

 

Also, I made a "logo"

 

[bluntblade]

Do you mean fluff background, or the RL background?

My chances of getting hostel work appear slim, so I expect to be quiet in the near future. But on the bright side, I should have my tablet again soon.
