Signing in. I suppose a thanks to those who obsessively lobbied for some Night Lord love should go out. Odd how it takes someone other than GW to give the 8th Legion attention. So thanks to you guys and the devs for actually listening. Just hope it doesn't collect all the TK kids and idle meatshields and gets people who are willing to put the time in for flanking/hit and run. No stealth or fear aura required (unless playing vs AI). It is a skill available in every current FPS. Same with recognizing choke points for prime ambushes, and generally keeping out of line of sight, as long as the terrain allows. I haven't really played FPS games much since Planetside, but I usually played sneaky or hit and run as a general play style. It will be interesting to see a possible group combat style revolving around this. At least the hit and run part should work. Can't see the group stealth working without an ability though. But then, faith in others is not really a Night Lord's strong suit. I also read or listened to everything on Night Lords from GW. Great stuff. Iron Warriors also has some good siege books in their Omnibus, but other than that I can't really recommend the other Legions. They just don't have the many dimensions Night Lords do. Hopefully I'll have a playable PC when it comes out. Missed out on Planetside 2 mostly since while it plays on my laptop, it is all choppy and slow. But yeah, thanks again guys for pushing Night Lords through.
The Sons of the Eighth Legion are broody, melancholic, cynical bastards. I am a broody, melancholic, cynical bastard. Thus, we are one. Welcome to the Warband. As for flanking maneuvers and what not? The moment founders access hits, or some form that is playable... I will be leading a strike-force of Raptors myself. RAPTORS, TO THE HUNT! ...I love me some Red Orchestra hard flanking action. Feels so good to shoot things in the back.
That do not stop us from having fun, looking good, collecting serfs and having a rather creative mind when it comes to crafting stuffs with human flesh. Overall we are just the sociopath next door. Care for some fava beans and a nice chianti?
Speaking of brooding in fun, how many here are going to play Regicide? If you are, I'd highly suggest committing thyself to our cause by signing up to our roster for it here: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/LordsofArkhona/discussions/0/617329150707341763/
The truth will out... I am, for better or worse, a son of the Night Haunter, a terror of the night! I didn't realize there was more than one guild of Night Lords either. We should combine our member base! Also, never thought of the Boltons as Night Lord-ish. Very cool!
So many brothers getting out of the shadow! Its like a big family reunion! Can't wait to see that sea of midnight clad warriors...really they better get the big gun out if they think they can control so many sociopaths on the field. Cause really what will stop us from doing what ever we want? Personally I plan on to go play with eldars and possibly seek rolling hills of lushfull green grass to go skip around. We all have our vices.
