Our outdated chapter badge edition

Last thread
>>46307851

New thread, we are waiting on drawfags and writefags! Feel free to suggest fluff additons
>>
Couldn't get a feel for the Emblem though.

The Flames look off... somehow

I'm just gonna drop this here
>>
So we still gonna ask that this >>46370579
have the eye changed to aa candle? I beleive that was suggested and sounded good to me
>>
>>46370598
Problem is is a drawfag made that for me, so I can't really change anything.


Aside from that, last thread we rolled heresy and Maximus armor, but I don't think that fits in with our timeline. When were we founded?
>>
>>46370579
>>46370598

Got two suggestion for you.

One is that we keep the original emblem. But we do it in the style of the Imperial Fists. The Hand will be enclosed within the circle and we change the iris in the eye into a candle flame.

The second is that we makes the flames look like a sun. A rounded slightly flaming circle with its flames directed slightly upwards. And the hand stays within.
>>
>>46370617

Well we did hint at they being 'second founding' chapter, what with the links to the 'Alpha legion' and the founder being a 'Captain of the third company for the Imperial Fists' and all.
>>
>>46370617
34th millenium. Remember though that most all the armor was invented during the heresy, the Maximus and heresy armor would represent 2 things: The fact much of the original armory was provided by the Alpha Legion who would have had ALOT of both Heresy and Maximus armor, as those were the primary armor of the traitior legions dunring the heresy

They are not quite second founding though
>>
>>46370629
I like the first suggestion personally. A fist makes more sense and ties us more closely to the 'true' sons of Dorn
>>
You're all worthless slaves to your own idiocy.

The problem is not that they have culture. It's that your implementation is horrifically poor. The problem isn't that they're Alpha Legion. It's that you've made it so obvious the simplest of Anons could guess, and why couldn't the Imperium? These poorly wrought abominations deserve death and nothing more. Such promise wasted on "LOL NAGAS AND CELLS D00D!"

These unsubtle fucks deserve nothing better than annihilation for their pitiful charade.

And the colour scheme? It gets worse with every iteration. You should feel fucking ashamed that you have no taste.
>>
>>46370658
Good point. That makes sense. Since their numbers are low, they wouldn't have a need for new armor models, since they would have surplus
>>
>>46370793
Again anon, where are hydras ANYWHERE in ANY of the thread iterations? We actually have not mentioned multiheaded lizards since the first thread. Other than Dorn, none of their Iconography even involves multiple heads.

And what about their culture makes it 'Painfully obvious' that they are Alpha Legion? I seem to remember them HAVING no unified culture aside from being some sneaky fuckers

As for the color scheme? Feel free to throw up a better one anon, instead of just talk about how shit the other suggested ones are

Your ADHD is the reason these fuckers went to hell. Any idea is a good idea to you. If I could dash your skull against the concrete and set flame to your horrid brains I would.

>>46370841
Ignore my points anon.

The Golden Spectres in their current state deserve nothing more than to be forgotten or annihilation in their fluff from an Imperium that isn't blind or dumb.

>Vietnamese chapter
Hey that's pretty cool
>Vietnamese Imperial Fists
Eh, that could be cool but knowing /tg/ these little shits are probably going to be Viet Cong.
>Viet Cong Imperial Fists
They do the Iron Caging? Alright that's kinda cool. As long as their culture is similar to the Fists
>Vietnam
Oh shit, that's right. Yeah these guys are shitty but there have been more divergent Successor chapters who are infinitely less interesting anyway.

>Alfa Leejun hole tiem! It's a Sekret tho
Fuck this dumb shit.
>>
>>46371229
Yo nigga, you got problems with it, I get it, but let's not turn this thread into mindless shitposting
>>
>>46371229

First off, nobody said we are going to use that pict as 'inspiration' or even so for drawfaggotry, even aesthetics-wise. Motif-wise, no one has even advocated it, save for that one guy.


>>> Hurrhurrhurr some faggot is acting like a tough guy on the internet

How the fuck is it Vietnam (Their Homeworld is Skaldi and their Fortress Monastery is fucking named Borea)? THeir fucking customs are not even fucking Vietnamese.

>>>'Alfa leejun hole tiem!
We are just going to hint at it for the whole sleeper agent plot twist.

Looks some fucking wanker got to learn some fucking comprehension, mother fucker.

Fuck off and don't let the door hit you on the way out, tosser.
>>
>>46371229
Someone posting a picture of anotable indo Chinese serpent does not mean we are going to use it anon. Every idea is not necessarily a good one, I am accommodating because this isn't MY vhapter. Not really atleast, it's the communities.

Despite your arguements I still see no reason they are 'so obviously alpha legion', and their founding was actually the very first thing decided and was my personal suggestion. Their actual purpose or reason is still unknown but I certain don't intend for them to go traitor 'we wur der legion all along'

Also I still do not see what is so bad about being Vietnamese? Every succesor need not be the same anon

Besides, in the end you appear to be a very vocal, very minority as you appear to experiment the lone screamer of these opinions. So, please stop shitposting, and contribute or go for

Besides, even if did not need lower myself to personal personal insults you God damn faggot
>>
>>46371418

So OP pls consolidate the fluff,
their initiation rituals (Putting on initiates on a jungle death world, having them survive a month, while being hunted by a squad of space marines), GS's main Battle Barge/Victory class battleship (Named The Immortal Son), Strike Cruiser ('Silent Thunder'), Tankbusta's fluff sections, hypnotherapy, Homeworld (Skaldi) and fortress Monastery.

Then we can discuss more about it and add in more shit
>>
>>46372170
Alright, I'll try to get thaat done today. Got some work later however so it may be a bit. Anyone have links to all the previous archived threads? I'm gonna need them
>>
>>46372376
I do, I'll archive the previous one and post them on the wiki.
>>
>>46372407
Thanks Anon
>>
>>46372407
Please do

>>46370617
Hey if you need fixes, don't be afraid to ask on the Draw-thread, we are glad to make tweaks if need be.
>>
>>46374332
I mostly think it's fine the way it is, but if people want change, change will be, I guess
>>
>>46372971
Done and done.
Also gonna start namefagging from now on.
>>
>>46375260
No problem

Bad news though, I have a fuckheug important project that may take up most the rest of today, so I don't think I'll be able to condense our fluff... anyone else up to it or what?

>>46375325
If dubs I do it

I would, but I've got work to do too. Good luck friend.

Read the wiki, friend.

Or any thread, really.

But you haven't been. It's super obvious from any perspective, Jesus christ.

>>46375768
>>46375768
>>46375768
More overt references to Vietnam and Vietnamese culture have been suggested, but most of those have been rejected.
It's just Vietnamese-ish names and tactics that can be considered Vietcong like, the whole Indochinese thing you keep harping on isn't there, at all.

As for the 'obviously Alpha Legion' thing, I don't really know what you're referring to. The only thing I can imagine is them not being a whole lot like other Fists in terms of culture, but that's really it.
>>
>>46376019
Just because WE'VE mentioned them being alpha a lot, doesn't mean it's obvious. I think he's getting confused
>>
hey did you boys update your wiki with the wrifefaggotry I made?
>>
>>46376853
I haven't been able to mess around with it yet, but boy oh boy is it gonna be. Thanks again for it, guy

Any special chars you want to add? More fluff?Any chapter relics? Termies (We have to work out the colour scheme)? Dreadnaughts (Camo netted Dreadnaught sounds kinky to me)? Armoury (Highly mobile which means a focus on bikes/land speeders etc.)?
>>
>>46384935
>>46384727
YEa, really at this point it is kinda free form while we continue to update the wiki. Tomorrow I will condense what fluff we have here for easy translation to 1d4chan. Feel free to continue discussing whatever part of the fluff intersts you

Alright, I am tired now. OP is now sleep. Don't let the thread die

Well morning thread. I see the creator of our special powerfists stopped by. Thanks for the compliments, nice to know other than that one faggot earlier most of ya'll are pretty cool.

Once I am done with school today Iwill condense our fluff for trnslation to the wiki

So, OP btw, on a whim I decided to take a crack at our color scheme for no other reason than I was grabbed by a desire to. Here is what I came up with, decided on a beakie helmet cause why the fuck not
>>
>>46391440
I wanted to keep it nice and simple
>>
>>46391440

Not bad, looks like Brazil tho
>>
>>46391440
Why are we physically incapable of making a good scheme?
>>
>>46391937
Well, Ithink at first our problem was making them to complicated. At this point we just need a simple scheme that either does not have a chapter attached to it or a real worl correlation.

We could always change the colors? We ca always not use gold(which is overdone to hell in my opinion anyway) and have that just be in the name or make the flames around our emblem gold

The green is also bugging me, we live on an ice world, underground jungles or no

Let try... blue and white, someone try a couple schemes using those

>>
>>46392653
No we did, but it isn't very good and I think we can do better... nothing else happening until
I have the time to condense the fluff anyways

OP here btw

>>46394145
You alone are gonna euthinize an entire community chapter because we decided to not use your ideas? Damn you really have nothing better to do? Geeze, it must suck, you know being the only one who seems to think like you.

Good luck anon, can't wait to see how yo intend to 'euthinize' our efforts
>>
>>46392653
Problem is is that every time we pick one, people chirp up and say it's shit, and then we instantly go back to the drawing board
>>
>>46392686
I like the bone and gold one with green shoulder pads.
The scheme 100% needs gold, otherwise the name doesn't work.
>>
>>46394194
Yea but thats always gonna happen. My deal is we need something that is generally speaking good. Its not that I think the old one are particularly shit, but I think we can do better

If there's one thing I've learned it's that you should never have different colored upper and lower legs.

Shit happened, no conndensed fluff tonight,

>>46395425
Looks like we are keeping this one, the Colors are now decided on

OP is now sleep. Keep the thread alive. Will post fluff tomorrow when I can
>>
>>46404651
We could always switch the green out with blue when they are on their homeworld for duties
>>
>>46405177
Yeah, they already paint the armor, swapping pauldron colors wouldn't be a stretch. Though, I'm not sure what for
>>
Bump
>>
>>46406845
Are we still doing camo for marines, or just going with the dark green one and cloaks?
>>
>>46405177
I don't really get why either. The green looks good.

Also, they only paint the armor when the specific operation calls for it.
>>
Reading up on the Camocloaks:

Cameleoline Cloaks - Cameleoline Cloaks are used by a number of races to provide camouflage for their elite infantry. Cameleoline is a refractive chemical substance that morphically blends its colouration into the surrounding area. It is often woven into cloaks and smocks, or more rarely, as a coating over armour plate. Its properties aid with concealment during covert assaults.
>>
>>46410356
I hope we stick with it
>>
>>46395269
This scheme is pretty good.
>>
>>46412448
It doesn't have enough gold though.
I'm honestly getting kind of tired of discussing the colors.
>>46395425 works fine. It looks nice and has gold. Let's just stick with it.
>>
>>46413093
>doesn't have enough gold
It has more gold than the green one
>>
>>46413793
That's orange, not gold
>>
>>46414315
The highlights look orange, the rest is a deeper gold
>>
>>46414445
It's not Imperial Fists/Imperial gold though, which is kind of the point.
The scheme is also overdesigned, with different colored kneepads and feet.
The choice of colors is also really unappealing in my opinion, with boring faded colors which are just not very striking.
Honestly, with the way it's set up, attention is being drawn to the groin.

The second one is both simpler and more striking. The gold is far more eye catching and the bone white works really well with it.
The green adds a little touch that instantly draws the attention to the upper body, which is something a color scheme should do.

We cannot forget that these are their formal/parade colors. They should be striking and recognisable, not faded and kind of boring.

While I think I disagree on almost every point, it's cool.

I just threw a green helmet on the scheme, and I think I like it a little more, but if no one else does, toss it

The imperial fists aren't really gold, though. They're just kinda yellow
>>
>>46414744
I prefer the white helmet myself, but I hope we can both be happy with this one.
And yeah, the Fists themselves are yellow, but Dorn himself had a massive Golden armor and the Spectres are rather fond of him.
>>
>>46414860
I fucking hate to keep talking about colors, but it's also something important that needs discussion.
>>
>>46415106
That fair enough, I understand
>>
>>46415168
We could discuss something else, like their relationship with house malaspina, or however you spell it
>>
>>46415233
What house?
>>
>>46415945
>House Malaspina (Shrouded House) - This particular Navigator House has always been held in a measure of distrust by certain bodies of the Imperium. While the matter is not common knowledge, not a single Space Marine Chapter of the First or Second Foundings ever allows a Malaspina Navigator to operate on their vessels, nor do they ever embark upon a starship navigated by a scion of House Malaspina. The reasons for this prejudice are unknown even to the most senior members of the Adeptus Terra and the Ordos of the Inquisition, though a few suspect that the House's tenebrous origins lie in the shrouded past of the cataclysm known as the Horus Heresy. Since that distant time, House Malaspina has striven to expand its fortunes, though it has never truly succeeded in doing so.
>>
>>46416252
Well, the Spectres are neither First or Second founding. So I take it they don't partifularly distrust them.
>>
>>46416342
There alliance was something to do with the Spectres origins, and Malaspina's shrouded (traitorous) background. Maybe they're keeping an eye on them, either for the Legion or the Imperium depending on where our branches loyalty lies. They either manipulate them for the Alpha legion, or make sure they are otherwise pure and useful for the Imperium
>>
>>46416393
Either sounds good to me
>>
>>46416393
If these guys are infamous around the Imperium with Astartes, maybe we could be allied with a cadet branch. That would also let us fluff their specific background accordingly
>>
>>46417828
Ok... how do we start doing that? Suggestions for this particular cadet branch?
>>
bump
>>
>>46420195
I'd say relation with alpha legion and end goals first. What are they trying to accomplish?
>>
>>46423716
Well, like >>46416393 said, they could either be loyalists or traitors. However, I'm partial to them being loyal caretakers, making sure that they stay on the righteous path, perhaps trying to make sure that they never fall into Alpharius' hands
>>
>>46424156
>>46420195
For name, how about Arista?
>>
>>46424954
Why? Shouldn't it incorporate the main house's name? Like Karstarks or Redjoys?
>>
>>46426440
Only if we want, I guess. The Capets of france had tens of cadet branches, and none shared similarities, really. Mostly just regional names or descriptors
>>
Well, given the sheer amount of chapters that do not even know their primarch, I think we can make a case for them being Imperial Fist descendants
>>
>>46427270
>given the sheer amount of chapters that do not even know their primarch
Or founding
Or homeworld
Or almost everything

I never understood how that works out. You would think at the very least they would have SOME written records about that shit. Literally one sheet of paper with the barebones written out
>>
>>46427383

Mindwipes, mindwipes everywhere.

Either that or deep dark possibly HERETICAL secrets or both. You never know with the Inquisition.
>>
>>46427590
There's so many that I'm sure plenty just straight up forgot. I guess it's not all that important if you can keep operating smoothly without the knowledge, but still
>>
>>46426440
>Karstarks
When the Starks are all wiped out, shouldn't they have a rightful claim to the northern kingdom? I they are Starks, shouldn't everyone be rallying behind them?
>>
Bump for sleepy times. Please keep the thread alive if you can
