MK V Mars Pattern?

I have been looking through the Siege of Vraks and I see where there is a plasma gun on page 95, but it is just listed as "plasma gun". Is there anywhere in the book where it is named the MK V Mars Pattern?--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 23:34, 2 May 2018 (MDT)

Phew, paper chase. Actually you missed it because it is not the DKoK plasma gun on p. 95, but the Dark Angels one on p. 150. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 13:47, 3 May 2018 (MDT)

Awesome, thank you! So no idea what pattern the DKoK used?--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 13:59, 3 May 2018 (MDT)
I just flipped thru it, so who knows what is hidden someplace in the text. From the top of my head: no, sorry. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 14:06, 3 May 2018 (MDT)
In "The Fall of Orpheus", p. 170, there is this plasma gun, but it says "special issue", so not the "standard" DKoK version. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 14:14, 3 May 2018 (MDT)

Yeah, I already have that pattern in the database. It was special issued just for that operation. The one issued during the Siege of Vraks looks like a much different pattern. I guess that one will go unnamed for now, but I will upload its image to the unnammed gallery.--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 14:28, 3 May 2018 (MDT)
I guess most weapon patterns never get actually named. C'est la GW vie. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 14:34, 3 May 2018 (MDT)

Dekkar Pattern in Black Tide

Saw where there is mention of a Dekkar Pattern Plasma Gun in the novel Black Tide. If anyone has that book, I'd much like to have the reference page and information on the pattern to add to the database.--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 15:53, 3 May 2018 (MDT)

DekkEr with an "e" I think: "Rafen’s eyes widened in surprise as he recognised the shape of a thickset plasma gun. The

weapon’s cowling was enamelled in blood red, and dressed with a skull emblem in beaten gold. “A twin-core design,” Mohl was saying, “Dekker-pattern. The rare Baal-variant model.” Unbidden, Rafen ran a finger over the skull, tracing the etching beneath it. “Aryon.” He spoke the hero’s name with reverence. “This is the sidearm of Brother-Captain Aryon. He perished in battle at the Yennor Reach more than seven centuries ago… His remains were never found.”" It is in Chapter 4. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 04:51, 4 May 2018 (MDT)

Thank you! Pattern added to the database. Any additional information about the weapon in the novel after it's introduction?--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 05:47, 4 May 2018 (MDT)

6th Edition Plasma Gun Image

Similar to my above post, there is an image of the XII Ragefire Pattern Plasma Gun in the 6th edition, but I do not have a copy of that rule book. If I could have the page number of the image (it should be on the page with multiple other weapon examples) and any lore to go along with it, it would be much appreciated.--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 15:53, 3 May 2018 (MDT)

The double page 54/55 shows different weapons (among them a plasma pistol and a plasma gun), but none are specified by pattern. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 05:03, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
Ah yeah thats the red one, right? Sorry I am looking for this one.--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 05:32, 4 May 2018 (MDT)

What makes you think it is in the Rulebook 6th ed? --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 11:25, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
I may have been mistaken, it may be in one of the Codicies, but the main page image is similar and the reference link points to the 6th edition rulebook. The reference maybe incorrect for all I know, as I did not add that image, myself. --TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 12:01, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
It might be very well. At least I have not found it so far. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 12:48, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
Let's keep looking, but if we can't find at least the main page image soon, we will have to remove it. But that's not too bad as we can just replace it with one of the unnamed pattern images.--TheNuclearSoldier (talk) 13:07, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
If a source can not be found, it should at least be quarantined,yes. From the image itself I tend to point in the direction of one of the Imperial Armour books or possibly a later Space Marine codex. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 13:55, 4 May 2018 (MDT)
