Agares Tretiak Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I made a new version of the color scheme I proposed. I moved the red to right arm edging, turned the helmet black, as well as the left shoulder pad. The rest has silver details, aside from the laurel wreath on the helmet, which is green. I used Coal black, rather than Chaos Black. I've got screenshots on my Steam page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krow Ames Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 I've also seen people with ranks and stuff on steam. We should probably get a list of those going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashbourne Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I was wondering about those... Brother-Chaplain, Brother-Captain, Brother-Sergeant etc.... What can I put in front of my Steam name, without upsetting the powers that be? I was already told Brother-Smartass is out of the question.

Agares Tretiak Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Brother-Thingy is the Codex Astartes ranking system. I'm not sure if the Ordo would classify as a Codex Astartes chapter or not. If we want to use that, though, there's a handful of ranks and roles in the Astartes. Standard Ranks_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________Brother Blahblah Would be your rank and file soldier Brother-Sergeant Blahblah would be most of your officer corps. Special Ranks_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Brother-Apothecary Blahblah would be the equivalent of a medic in the game. (They wear almost all white armor, in a Codex Astartes unit) Brother-Chaplain Blahblah would be a spiritual and morale leader in a company. Something between a military chaplain and a comissar. Brother-Librarian Blahblah would be a Chapter sanctioned psyker and communications specialist. Oftentimes, Librarians serve as a sort of intelligence arm for the chapter in question, as they also collect large amounts of information. Techmarine - Handles the maintenance of a company's war materials (Armor, vehicles, weapons). Command ranks._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________Brother-Captain Blahblah would be leading an entire chapter company (100 Space Marines). Brother-Reclusiarch Blahblah would be leader of the Chapter's Chaplains. Master of the Forge Blahblah would be the top Techmarine of the entire Chapter. Master of the Fleet Blahblah would be in command of the Chapter's fleet assets. Chief-Librarian would be the ranking Librarian of the entire Chapter. Chief-Apothecary would be the ranking Apothecary of the entire Chapter Chapter Master - Commands the whole chapter.________________________________________________________________________________________________My recommendation for the Ordo's Chapter ranking system is to use some of the traditional Roman rank titles. Naturally, that's if we want to formalize the ranks. For instance, rank and file would be Brother-Milites Blahblah. A squad would be a Cohor, each Company would be a Century led by a Lord Centurion. If we are Codex Astartes compliant, we'd have 10 Centuries/Companies, with the First Company being the elite, and the 1st Cohor of the First Company would be known as the Praetorian Guard and technically comprise of the chapter's terminators. The First Company commander would be the Lord Praefectus . The Tenth Century/Company would be the Training company. Call that what you will. Cohor Scholam, maybe. In addition, most Company formations would comprise of the 1st Cohor/Squad of the Company being Veterans (Company elite). In the case of the Ordo, I'd call them "Triarii" which were considered elite soldiers in the Roman military (prior to the Marian reforms). So you'd have Brother-Triarius Blahblah as your standard Veteran rank. All the command ranks would hold the prefix of Lord, to denote their station. So... Lord Reclusiarch would be the commander of the Chapter's chaplains, Lord of the Fleet would command the Fleet, Lord Apothecary, etc, etc. I guess Aryte would be like...the High Legate or Lord Legate, something of that nature, as he is undoubtedly our Chapter Master.

Ashbourne Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Don't tell me Praetorians would need the title "Brother-Terminator xyz" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agares Tretiak Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Nah. Brother Praetorian would be fine. Despite my current steam name, I'm not very good at the game yet. I think a little tourney should be held to see who would hold the Lord Praefectus title for our little Ordo Chapter. ;__; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huttser Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 You know, Lord Centurion should totally be one of our actual SL ranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krow Ames Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 Well, I heard the Ultramarines use pseudo-Roman ranks and names. What's that like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agares Tretiak Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Eh...the Ultramarines use the standard "Brother-Thingy" format. Mostly because their founder, the Primarch Robute Guilliman was the one who wrote the Codex Astartes and they follow it nearly religiously. Which is why some members of other, less Codex inclined chapters (Space Wolves) will jokingly call Ultramarines "starch-arsed goody-goodies" If I don't get to be Lord Praefectus, I want to be the Lord Epistolary (Chief Librarian) or the Lord Reclusiarch. ;__; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerowinged Vasiliev Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 As we gain rank in game we should change it accordingly, IMO This isn't /as/ serious as SL when it comes to the ranking structure. However, it would give us a excuse to place the Ordo Imperialis into the WH40k universe with a decent backdrop and storyline. Personally, I would prefer something to reference for these titles but outside of that everything is cool. :3 Nah. Brother Praetorian would be fine. http://wh40k.lexican...orian_Servitorshttp://warhammer40k....raetorian_Guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
or10nsharkfin Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 In the context of the entire Warhammer 40k universe, I pictured the Ordo to be more like the Imperial Guard than the Space Marines. Of course, this might have been blatantly obvious and I'm not the first, or even the only one, to have thought this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HELLO, BROTHER ABRAMS. Zerowinged, Welcome to WH40k. You can have lots of overlap in names, and not even remotely begin to infringe on other fluff things that involve similar names. You missed the bit about the Imperial Fists legion also being called the Emperor's Praetorian Guard, for their role in renovating the defenses of Terra under the direction of Rogal Dorn. The Literal Praetorian Guard of the Emperor, are the Adeptus Custodes, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
