Ordos = Rogue Traders
« on: January 21, 2004, 06:58:17 AM »
I'm not meaning this in any fluff way at all, I'm just saying this as aconceptfor a Rogue Trader army.

Using the Ordos codicies, you can create a rogue trader army, as follows: (Obviously the Xenos Hunters would be the best codex to use since Traders will have access to alien technoloogy)


Inquisitors: They become the Rogue Traders themselves, with the henchmen being their bodyguard/advisors etc.

Stormtroopers: They are the personal warriors of the Traders.

Orbital strike: The same but from the Traders ship.

Landraider: Rogue Trader heavy tank, with treansport capacity. (Obviously a very rich trader)

Dreadnaught: A robot used by the traders, being set up for whatever they need.

Grey Knights/Adeptus Soritas/Deathwatch: These can either be the ultimate troopers of the Trader, or a group of the aformentioned working along side the Trader in their mission.

Termies/GK Commander: I'm not sure about this. Would leave it out myself.


What do you lot think? I reckon some of you will already have come up with this idea, but it would certainly change the apperance of the Ordos armies.

This would be better posted in the Inquistion forum.

Looks interesting... I don't think that any Rogue Trader would have the resources to get hold of power armor and certainly not to Grey Knight skill levels...

A leman Russ is believable but I don't think that a Rogue Trader could get hold of a Land Raider for similar reasons...
