Blog Entries: 1  |  Rubric I have a question. How do 1000 sons replenish their ranks? If they are just spirits trapped in their armour, what happens when the armour is destroyed? Wouldn't all new initiates be sorcerers?

Blog Entries: 1 | You gotta understand there were at least 10,000 of them before the heresy. Thats a lot of marines! and since only about 15-20% at best were sorcerers thats a lot of 2 wound marines running around to destroy. Also they aren't as blood thristy or confrontational as other legions so they should take many fewer losses. I imagine the sorcerers can reseal souls into armor too so they may be able to repair some after battles and in 40k a model that is a casualty isn't always dead just unable to fight, so they might loss a leg during a battle and be counted as a casualty but after wards be fixed.  They don't recruit new rubric marines. Its not possable without casting another rubric which magnus forbid.

Blog Entries: 1 | Wow, I never thought about them putting old spirits in new armour. But wouldn't their spirits go directly to the warp? Why don't the entomb daemons in PA or TA? That would be cool!

Blog Entries: 1 | They steal! And everytime an imperial shipis lost in the warp where do you thing it goes? They make their own too. Abbadon had the Planet Killer made in the eye of terror.  PS the defiler is another thing CSM have made in the 10000 years since the heresy!

| I've heard of chaos shipyards. If they have chaos forgeworlds, they can do pretty much anything.

Blog Entries: 1 | Speaking of the Planetkiller, what exactly are the Blackstone Fortresses? Who are Arhiman's Cabal? I think I might make him a retinue of sorcerers and call it that.

Blog Entries: 1 | Blackstone fortresses are the Talismans of Vaul. Made by the Eldar to defeat C'tans. Abbadon can't even begin to fathom their true power (I hereby promote myself too fluff master!)

Blog Entries: 1 | ahrimans cabal - a bunch of the other sorcerers of the legion. ahriman was the chief librarian of the 1000 sons so he was able to recruit a bunch of the others and convinced them to do the ruberic. even though magnus banned the ruberic he also excilled ahriman and all the sorcerers of his cabal which means for the past 10000 years or so they've been running around with the power and knowledge to make more ruberic marines pretty much anytime they want.  its hard with the new rules but the the current (outgoing) rules you could make ahrimans cabal as an all asp champ/sorcerer chosen squad and have them be ahriman's bodyguard/retinue. i was working on this until i saw the new rules which doesn't alow rets nor chosen marines to be sorcerers. hopefully this will change next year with the deamon/legion codex. that or hopefully gw will be smart and release the legions in the wd/online formats like they did for blood angels. that would be good. i suppose that you could run ahriman and then for fluff wize say that all your sorcerers in your 1000 son squads are members of the cabal assigned thier own bodyguard ruberic marines..........hmmm that has possibilities.....
