Sete Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I have been toying with the idea of making a DiY faction for the new Dark Imperium setting. The Sathori Covenant. A faction that claims the Old ones as precursors Reptilian in nature, strong and resilient, with a psyker as a supreme leader, and with High Tech weaponry. Lore wise they survived the war in heaven by taking refuge in a "tombworld" of their own, in a long cryosleep now cut short by the great rift. What's left of the race is now awakening on a new strange galaxy were old foes and allies are still at war, along with new threats to their existence. Thinking of using Scout Rules for a small group for kill team. Sathorian Soldier: 13pts Move:6 WS:3 BS:3 STR:4 TGH:4 WDS:1 ATK:1 LD:7 Save:+4 Gear: Carapace Armour, Gauss rifle/Rapid Fire 2, Gauss pistol. Rules: Forward Deployment, War in Heaven Veterans Can buy cloaking device, One in 5 can buy Heavy Gauss rifle/ Gauss blaster. Sargent has one more leadership attack and can take a Power Weapon (sword rules, modelled as a Lance/spear) Model wise the High Tech look of the new Blater Squads with Kroot feet instead of hooves is a good look, and plays into the fact that an old one might have created the Tau. No big shoulder pads. Since the old ones engaged on serious genetic manipulation, Kroot hounds and even maybe saurus warriors from fantasy can be used as bait/screen troops or as Slanni.
