Vel'Cona Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Awesome opportunity here, fellow techpriests! I know there's more than a few unique Forgeworlds that have been posted to this forum in the last few years, so if you have been waiting for the right moment to extoll the virtue of your glorious host, this is it! Go forth and cogitate, for the glory of the Omnissiah! As a side note, for our most noble Grand Master: What about Imperial Knight Freeblade companies? I know there may be one or two of those around. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magos Takatus Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Cool idea. I've not really thought that much about the background of my Forge World. I've been more focused on the brush side of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xin Ceithan Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Guess Hellforges or Dark Mechanicum forces are better represented in the Chaos subforum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
