Iron Hands Medusan Immortal [Legionary Name Redacted] Мошсш. Clan-company Ваше of Tredecimmia The Medusan Immortals were a cadre of warriors within the Iron Hands Legion who having fallen in defeat had been brought back from the brink of death in order to seek redemption in the fires of battle. After Isstvan, the ranks of the Medusan Immortals swelled to unprecedented levels, the Legion having split into a number of disparate elements, their Primarch dead and the Clan-Council slam. Those declared Immortal within the Morragul Clan-company were allowed to fight alongside their brethren, presenting a genuine opportunity to achieve absolution not just in their own eyes, but in those they had failed. This particular warrior is depicted as he was deployed to the assault on Tredecimmia. The Legionary was committed as part of a heavy assault force carried into battle in the armoured hold of a Mastodon armoured assault transport, its objective to break through the lines held by the World Eaters auxiliary forces south of Tredecimmia to engage the XI Гь Legion's forces before they could counter attack. Clan Morragul Medusan Immortals This Legionary displays the heavy cybernetic modification common among Medusan Immortals. The bonding studs on the left shoulder pauldron are a nonstandard feature of Immortal equipment at this stage—one probably initiated by the Tcchmanncs of the Morragul Clan-company and later copied by others. Also of note is the use of the 'red talon' icon of the Morragul—up until this point all Immortals were stripped of Clan-company markings upon induction.

World Eaters Legionary Zhukjel Dror Ваше of Treueommia Once a member of the 8,h Assault Company of the World Eaters, Legionary Dror was one of many of his Legion betrayed at Isstvan III. His mortally wounded body was recovered during the aftermath, when it was discovered that he lived yet, albeit so grievously broken in mind he no longer knew iriend from foe. Whether as cruel jest, experiment or retrieval of usable biological matter, Dror was shipped to Bodt along with hundreds of similarly wounded Legionaries, where ultimately he W3S inducted into the ranks of the Red Butchers. Legionary Dror is depicted here as he and others ol the Red Butchers appeared when they were unleashed upon the Loyalists invading Trcdccimmia. Accounts ol the bloodshed that followed are fragmentary at best, but Dror alone stands accused of slaying at least a dozen Loyalist Legiones Astartes and twice that number of Solar Auxilia before he was crushed beneath the armoured tread of a Mastodon armoured assault transport ol the Iron Hands Legion. Armour of the Red Butchers The distinctive Terminator armour of the Red Butchers functions as a prison inbetween battles, when it is remotely locked and rendered immobile by Legion overseers. It is notable that the original blue heraldic elements are being supplanted by red markings, much of which is simply the blood of the Legion's foes.

World Eaters Assault Legionary Legionary Balcoth Task Force Ycethddon Siccus Interdiction Legionary Balcoth served in Task Force Ygethddon, a mixed Traitor Legion force named for and led by a XVl,h Legion Centurion that included units drawn from rhe Sons of Horus, Night Lords and World Eaters. Its task was to ensure that the Blood Angels Legion did not escape the trap set for it at the Signus Cluster. While the Loyalists were able to avoid the task forces interdiction, several other Loyalist Legiones Astartes forces were less fortunate and were destroyed wholesale by the bloody-handed Traitors World Eaten Armour Symbolic Modifications Balcoth is clad in modified Mark IV Legiones Astartes power armour, the chest pauldron wrought by Legion artificers into a form redolent of the World Eaters icon. The helm's distinctive ‘tadaere remssum' side panels are a throwback to the fighting pits in which the Primarch Angron once fought, signifying a warrior whose sanity had been burned away by lust for battle. Such warriors were regarded as blessed, lor they were cleansed ol all cares other than war. World Eaters Mid-Heresy Heraldry It is notable that Balcoth's armour shows very few of the blue elements once worn proudly by the Legion, most of which have been over-painted blood red or simply been allowed to degrade. In addition, the traditional crosscd-chains duelling honour on the left grieve appears to have been neglected in favour of the crudely applied kill-marks scratched into the armour's surface down the right side - yet another indication of the Legion s descent into blood-lust and ill-discipline.

Iron Warriors Tactical Legionary Legionary KerTheion 3“ Shock Assault Detachment, ii4,M Grand Battalion Battle of Mezoa Newly inducted into the Grand Battalion shortly before the beginning of the Mezoa campaign as one of the few replacement warriors granted the mauled formation, Legionary Thelon did not suffer through the betrayals heaped upon his new brothers by the Alpha Legion. lie and those few others that were seconded to the unit remained staunchly loyal both to their Primarch and the Warmastcr, held in thrall by the rushed hypno-indoctrination of their training and shunned by much of the 114“ for it. In the grim, fire-scoured landing zones and the long siege of Mczoa's forge spires, Ker Thelon and his brorhers saw their baptism of fire; part of a growing breed of Legiones Astartcs whose sole experience of war was the brutal attrition of Legionary against Legionary. Surviving where many others fell, Legionary Thelon soon acquired an impressive tally of kills, and by the time of Autilon Skorr's last push on the forge-fanes of Mezoa, he had risen to the rank of senior sergeant among the з'1 Shock Assault Detachment and was a vocal rival of Narik Dreygur. With the events of the final climactic battle of that campaign, Legionary Thelon and many of his confederates disappeared from rhe roster of the 114th Grand Company. No record of their fall in the final battle exists, nor any official mention of sanction against them by either Nank Dreygur or the Loyalist Legiones Astartes that he chose to side with.

Raven Guard Recon Legionary Veteran Legionary Alec кто Kirhane First Recon Detachment, 7 * Chatter Company от the Ebon Drake Hundreds of thousands of Loyalist Legiones Astartes fell upon the killing fields of Isstvan and three Primarchs were presumed dead at the hands of their brothers. In the midst of such unimaginable death and destruction, barely a handful of loyal warriors escaped, and none who endured the terrible events of those black days was unmarked by the tragedy. Ot his entire chapter, the 7*. known informally as the ‘Stormrrou'j', only Kirhane and a dozen others survived. Kirhane is pictured here in the early stages of the battle, before a Traitor autocannon tore off his left leg below the knee and consigned him to watch the treacherous end of that battle from a medicae encampment. Kirhane left Isstvan V at the controls of the Salamanders Thunderhawk Ohidoran, the original crew having disembarked to die with their brothers on the battlefield and allow the walking wounded to escape. The Ohidoran then found refuge aboard the cruiser Warlock as it fought free of the orbital battle. Caught in the swirling realm of the Warp, the Warlock and its passengers were consigned to a long and treacherous odyssey as they sought a bastion of those still loyal. After seven months of voyaging on the malicious tides of the Warp, the Warlock finally came to rest at Baal, finding at last a world where loyal servants of the Emperor still held true to their vows. Yet, though it provided refuge from Horus' onslaught, it granted the survivors of Isstvan nn succour XIX,b Legion Insignia.

Blackshield Marauder Legionary Unknown Designation Irregular Leciones Asiartes Faction -Соипео the ‘Dark Brotherhood’ Pale Stars War zone [Опека/DiSOumoN/lARSA] This unidentified Blackshield was active across the Pale Stars war zone between 008-ОЮ.М31. In the aftermath of the Alpha Legions ambush of the Conclave of Optera, he fought across the Pale Stars as the Dark Brotherhood sought to consolidate control over the Eridayn Cataract. He was grievously wounded at Dissolution, where he fought as part of the infiltration force that counter-attacked an Alpha Legion strategic holdfast. After Dissolution he does not appear in any account for around a year, suggesting a prolonged period of recover)'. When next witnessed in action, at Larsa, he led a squad ol Blackshields against the Silver Guard ol the Traitor-aligned governor of that world. Battle Plate The Blackshield is depicted here as he appeared at the Conclave of Optera, as part ol the Nemean’s retinue. He wears battle plate constituted from different Legiones Astartes armour marks, including some elements of Mark VI, which at that time was only just entering service across the Legions. Other elements of the armour are specific to what would later be retroactively classed as non-production Mark V, including the improvised externally-mounted power cabling on the chest and upper leg armour. This mixture of intermediate sub patterns, field modifications and combining of divergent marks means that few examples of Mark V were exactly the same, especially when employed by the often highly idiosyncratic Blackshields. Note the skeletal spread-eagle icon, a common motif by which the Dark Brotherhood was known. Presumed Icon of the Ceramite bonding stud reinforcement ‘Dark Brotherhood’ Blackshield Faction

КРАСНЫЕ МЯСНИКИ
Ужасы Исствана III освободили безумие, которое давно терзало легион Пожирателей миров и его примарха, кровожадная ярость, которая поразила самую душу легиона, и была усилена ужасающими, приводящими к гиперагрессивности операциями на черепе, которым подверглись многие из Пожирателей Миров. На поле битвы Исствана III на обеих сторонах конфликта встречались Пожиратели миров, которые сдались, превратившись в безумных бешеных дикарей, которых невозможно было контролировать. Вместо того, чтобы "успокоить" таких воинов, как это делалось в прошлом (так как подобное происходило время от времени задолго до Ереси Хоруса), Апотекарии заковали их в цепи для куда более мрачной участи.
Технодесантники изготовили для них модифицрованные комплекты терминаторской брони из трофейных кусков брони, которые служили для них и защитой и тюрьмой. Механизированные тюремные камеры могли быть обесточены дистанционным сигналом. Подвешенные на цепях в трюмах кораблей Пожирателей миров, исходя пеной и крича от бессильной ярости, родились Красные мясники. Впервые выпущенные против лоялистов на Исстване V эти обречённые души, обезумевшие от ярости слепо бросились на врага, рубя и потроша с диким упоением.
Немногие выжили, но части их терминаторской брони, забрызганной кровью, были найдены и восстановлены для новых заключённых.
Ересь не спеша перечитываю.
Альфарий и Омегон :)
Все сходится.
Помню, смотрел старые IA - куча одинаковых танчиков или морячков в разных цветах. Достаточно скучно, будто справочник по геральдике листаешь.
А тут каждый моряк не похож на другого. Сочные, атмосферные, с яркими деталями, но не перегружены мелочами. Восхитительно.
"Битва за Бездну" они там есть (лояльный капитан/сержант/ветеран уже не помню) но я бы не стал рекомендовать (средняя книга)
В сборниках рассказов "Эпоха Тьмы" и "Легенды Ереси" они присутствуют в... рассках
Аудиодрама "Гвозди Мясника" про них, и самое главное (самое мощное) это "Предатель" (атака Несущих Слово и Пожирателей на 500 миров Ультрамара, так называемый Теневой Крестовый Поход) - вот там месиво ещё то, но рекомендую всё же читать Ересь по порядку, а не скакать от книжки к книжке ради любимого легиона.
