With the brand new Codex: Emperor’s Kids, I’ve needed to massively reorganize my outdated Emperor’s Kids pressure – that was organized utilizing the foundations within the earlier version’s Chaos House Marines Codexes… Actually, it was a bit disappointing how a lot issues modified.
In earlier editions, Noise Marines, if taken in a pressure with the Emperor’s Kids key phrases, they have been thought of Troops or Battleline – your primary troops you could take as many as you need of (or six models, as a substitute of simply three, in the newest version) and so they might be in models of 5 to 10…
Within the present version Noise Marines are fielded in models of six (no extra, no much less – which is smart, being the magic variety of Slaanesh!) however are NOT BATTLELINE!! That means I can solely take a MAXIMUM of THREE models of those – a grand complete of eighteen Noise Marines!?
Whereas they weren’t all painted, I already had THIRTY Noise Marines!? Then I obtained twelve extra within the Champions of Slaanesh field set!?
What am I to do with all these Noise Marines!?
I have not determined finally what is going to occur to ALL of them… however in the interim, I’ve determined to rebase those I’ve painted (as they’re now fielded on 40mm bases!?) and painted up any of the older ones I must fill out three models of six of the older fashions as quick as I can and use these…
What is going to I do with the dozen different outdated ones I’ve…?! I do not know….
What is going to I do with the dozen NEW ones I’ve…? I do not know… I might simply promote them whereas the Noise Marines are nonetheless standard..? Or simply maintain them round and paint them for funsies… or paint them to switch the outdated ones (finally)
For now, nevertheless, I’ve painted two of the older ones so as to add to the Soroibus Tortus…
The 2 new ones…
Soroibus Tortus Noise Marines
The unit was impressed by the American heavy metallic band Twisted Sister and the costumes they wore on the duvet of The Better of the Atlantic Years album…
Generally when developing with names for 40K, I simply latinize them, form of… I am unsure how I obtained to Sororibus Tortas… I am guessing it was primarily based on Torta (Twisted?) and Soror (Sister)…?
I might have gone with Perversa Sorore… or Fraternitas Torta… or Fraternitas Perversa!? Alas… Sticking with the unique title I got here up with for them!
I’ve three or 4 extra of the older Noise Marines to complete as much as full the three models…
Once they’re completed, I might doubtlessly area 740 factors of stuff…

That is an OLD Keeper of Secrets and techniques I am utilizing as my Daemon Prince of Slaanesh. the Daemon Prince of Slaanesh I now armed with an infernal cannon… Undecided I ponder if I ought to convert that to have one thing shooty like…?
Or… possibly that dangly bit I added between their legs might be the Infernal Cannon… I imply… It IS Slaanesh we’re speaking about right here!?
