Talk:Minotaurs

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

This page is almost entirely fan fluff, the only mentions of the Minotaurs in the listed source are: "In 906 two more loyalist chapters, the Red Scorpions and Minotaurs, were brought in and the threat to Imperial shipping was more or less quashed." and "The Lamenters were caught in an ambush by the Minotaurs and 908 and eventually surrendered after bloody ship-to-ship fighting."

The Cursed Founding Chapter Approved article does list them as a 21st Founding chapter, and that they are "assault-orientated" in regards to tactics but there is no organisational info the likes of which is shown here. --Gashrog 15:33, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

If you encounter something that is not in the sources listed, just remove it. And if you find out who originally was responsible for the fan-stuff, feel free to report them to me. Measures will then be taken. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum 15:43, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Any chance of an update for this page? I personally don't have the Imperial Armour 10, but it seems that all other Chapters of the Badab War have received an update, apart from these chaps. --BrotherLudovic 12:57, 27 March 2011 (CEST)

Seeing as you asked so nicely, I'm making a start on it today. :)--Mob 19:04, 27 March 2011 (CEST)
Cheers mate, great stuff. :D --BrotherLudovic 08:15, 29 March 2011 (CEST)

Miniature

Same problem as with other 'Badab Chapters', the IA books give us fantastic pics of the new colour schemes, but there's no models. Looks a bit odd, but nowt can be done unless someone finds a mini pic somewhere.--Mob 20:09, 29 March 2011 (CEST)

If someone, outside of GW and FW, would paint up a model, can they (or us) put it up here?--BrotherLudovic 10:00, 20 May 2011 (GMT +1)
No. Only official pictures. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum 11:36, 20 May 2011 (CEST)


Forgeworld my darling, your inconsistent

It says they have a full stock of Mk8 armour yet all the pica are of older marks? Also, no imperial eagles so far which is interesting. IF anyon has an answer I would love one, if not Ill just put it down to an inconsistency between the writers at FW and the artists.

Call me cynical, but it may be because Forgeworld released their older-stle armour kits at the same time as the Badab book - so they want folks to buy the sexy new miniatures Thelemur 00:39, 13 November 2011 (CET)
Also, a more in-universe explanation would be that marines venerate older technology, so they would rather use old patterns of armour, even if they had shiny new ones Thelemur 00:43, 13 November 2011 (CET)
I have to agree, the new old style minis are sexier. Although I would like them to make a full squad of high-collared MK8 marines of some kind. Maybe with the shield shaped kneepads from Space Marine the game. In universe I think the fluff suggests that Minotaurs don't rather anything as there all mindless killers now.
