Slips Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Heyo, this is just a heads up that at the launch of HH2.0, we will be retiring the current Tactica threads and deploying a new suite so that we can have a fresh discussion about the legions in the new system and make it less of a monolithic task for those just joining us to find stuff. Until that time, though, feel free to keep using them as is. For armies that arent present at launch, we'll create new topics for them as they are released. 1ncarnadine, SmorcInc, Brother Kraskor and 13 others 16 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scorpion Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Sounds like a wise decision to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted May 29, 2022 Author Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Well, with the whole Liber books being leaked, we might as well just move ahead with the swap. Now, that said, the threads have generic names. So, if you can think of a more appropriate legion name for the tactica thread (Such as: The Phalanx: VIIth Legion Tactica or Serpents Lair: XXth Legion Tactica) feel free to post it here. DA: The Angels of Death: Ist Legion Tactica OR The Hekatonystika: Ist Legion Tactica EC: Brotherhood of the Phoenix: IIIrd Legion Tactica IW: The Dodekatheon: IVth Legion Tactica WS SW: The Aett: Vith Legion Tactica IF: The Phalanx: VIIth Legion Tactica NL: The Kyroptera: VIIIth Legion Tactica BA: The Crimson Host: IXth Legion Tactica IH: The Iron Tenth: Xth Legion Tactica WE: The Gladitorial Pits: XIIth Legion Tactica UM: The Tetrarchs of Ultramar: XIIIth Legion Tactica DG: The Unbroken Blade: XIVth Legion Tactica TS SoH: The Mournival: XVIth Legion Tactica WB: The Dark Brethren: XVIIth Legion Tactica SAL: The Pyre Guard: XVIIIth Legion Tactica RG: The Ravenspire: XIXth Legion Tactica AL: Serpents Lair: XXth Legion Tactica Edited June 1, 2022 by Slips Excessus and Loquille 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claws and Effect Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Can we look into keeping the old threads alive in some capacity for people that still like playing the original ruleset, or are we just going with the old rules are invalid and thus ignored?

I mean, they'll still be there. Ill unlock them once Im done updating the repository thread and will go through to mark them as being HH1.0 to avoid confusion Brother Sutek 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claws and Effect Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Fair enough. I know in my play group there are a number of people not very enamored with the new rules. I can only assume that this isn't an isolated case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trixie Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I'll forward the idea of naming the glorious Iron Warrior tactica as The Dodekatheon. Chronotonic 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Angels of Death for Dark Angels would make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronotonic Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 This is a great idea -Use the names for the warriors lodges and their likes for the board names...

Hfran Morkai Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Space Wolves should be "The Aett" or "The Fang". I personally prefer "The Aett" but would happily go with consensus. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bung Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 "The Arena Pits" for World Eaters comes to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gattopardo Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Angels of Death for Dark Angels would make sense. Yes it would - although I think I'd go for the Secrets of the Hekatonystika, to reference the secret knowledge of the First. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted May 30, 2022 Author Share Posted May 30, 2022 RE: Angels of Death, I think erring on the side of a 'location' that those within the Legion would use to plan out stuff might be more thematic. So something like The Rock or The Hekatonystika might work better. But, if we get more people in favor of titles such as "The Angels of Death" I have no problem with it.

ArcNitemare Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 For Death Guard, I think The Unbroken Blades is fitting as that was what they were to Mortarion. And for the Iron Hands, I think the Iron Tenth works, as practical and straight forward as Ferrus Manus. Of course if any of my fellow Death Guard and Iron Hands legionaries have their own thoughts I would be happy to hear them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slips Posted May 31, 2022 Author Share Posted May 31, 2022 Also, I'll just say, if some of the legions don't have community names, I may, or may not, just choose meme-y names for them in an executive decision.

Aeternus Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) Potentially 'The Kyroptera' (or something like 'Claws of the Kyroptera') for the NL? *Edit*, or 'Gangs of Nostramo' if we want something less established as a definitive body in the Legion Edited June 1, 2022 by Aeternus Lautrec the Embraced 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lautrec the Embraced Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 If we're going for Primarchs' war councils then maybe something like Tetrarch Council for the XIII or the Pyre Guard for Sallies. If more for fortresses then RG maybe the Ravenspire though it sounds a bit uninspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 For Death Guard, I think The Unbroken Blades is fitting as that was what they were to Mortarion. And for the Iron Hands, I think the Iron Tenth works, as practical and straight forward as Ferrus Manus. Of course if any of my fellow Death Guard and Iron Hands legionaries have their own thoughts I would be happy to hear them. I like the Death Guard suggestion! A nod towards ‘Raiders of the Dusk’ or a classic ‘Sepulchre’ (in homage to a particular website of yore!) could also work nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeternus Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) I appreciate this is in actually in no way important or impactful, but could we get the threads who haven't had their names changed over yet to the suggestions outlined above in Slips sum up post? If nothing else, bit of consistency for everyone but Scars and Sons :P My own suggestions for Sons at least would be 'The Fellowships of Tizca/Prospero' or something of that ilk - The Prosperan Fellowships? Not sure what the grammar would be there. Edited July 13, 2022 by Aeternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
