How many sources do I need to be quoting from? How long a history do you want me to write?
As I mentioned, it's a brief history. It's not war in peace. It's not meant to be and it won't be.
It is not that dude
It is the inclusion of units that you have added to keep people who 'may' play the list happy with alot of options. These options go against the fluff of the army.
Go back to the Word Eater 1.0 discussions and you will see talk from others including LI talking about the World Eaters. I just feel that the current list has too many options - that is a rare thing mind you - usually there is a cry to add units.
As for warriors that can no longer fight, it is an honour to be placed in a dreadnaught to serve the cause. Other than this, they are a warrior culture. If you cannot walk or hold up an axe, the Legion will not wait for you or carry you IMO. Any honourable warrior who holds battle prowess above all else, would rather fall on his own axe rather than hang around as a cripple. As stated, the dreadnought is the exception to this, and are only given to great heroes, or those that the Bloodlord feels he wished to torment I guess.
The material I had for you was to assist you with the background to help make the list in line with the battle theory of this Legion, not to write up a full history.
Like I said, I like the Legionaires who would be out to prove themselves. It is quite concevable that they would also fly the aircraft as well, but IMO World Eaters would either have bombers, or fighter bombers. What you have given is a navy to appease any newcomer with options beyond what they should have to close up a weakness. The same can be said for the Stalker.
That's all of it in one post I guess.
