Thunder Warriors

Description
What is this mod?
Originally posted by Thunder Warriors page on Lexicanum:
The Thunder Warriors (also known as the Thunder Legion or Legiones Cataegis) were the genetically engineered warriors of Terra created by the Emperor of Mankind to unite the homeworld of humanity beneath His rule in the 30th Millennium. They were gene-enhanced warriors created by the Emperor and served as the precursors to the present-day Space Marines. Wrought to be living weapons, the Thunder Warriors were known to be physically stronger, more savage, and more potent in combat than the later Astartes, though they were not as long-lived.

So, as you can guess, this mod includes Thunder Warrior equipment. At release, this will be Armour, Pauldrons and a Powerpack.

Customization
There are 5 types of pauldrons, which you can use to denote rank.
Included are all 18 legion colour schemes and a homebrew chapter, the Seran's Praetor. The legion colour schemes are seen in the mod as their oldest representation (1st Legion use the Heresy colour scheme) or with actual Unification colours when available (7th Legion, for example). The legions as we know them today, had different names back then:
  • Dark Angels - Angels of Death
  • Emperor's Children - IIIrd Legion
  • Iron Warriors - IVth Legion
  • White Scars - Star Hunters
  • Space Wolves - The Rout
  • Imperial Fists - VIIth Legion
  • Nightlords - VIIIth Legion
  • Blood Angels - Revenant Legion
  • Iron Hands - Storm Walkers
  • World Eaters - War Hounds
  • Ultramarines - War-Born
  • Death Guard - Dusk Raiders
  • Thousand Sons - XVth Legion
  • Sons of Horus - XVIth Legion
  • Word Bearers - Imperial Heralds
  • Salamanders - Dragon Warriors
  • Raven Guard - XIXth Legion
  • Alpha Legion - XXth Legion

Why do the Thunder Warriors have Space Marine legion colours?
Because this is my mod, I do whatever the ♥♥♥♥ I want, sue me if you disagree.

Optional Mods
ACE Arsenal Extended - patch included, completely optional. Armour and pauldron entries in the Arsenal collapse into one, no more arsenal spam.

Known Issues
None so far :)

Future Plans
  • Add helmets;
  • Add weapons;

Any plans for black carapace compatibility?

Armiger's Vigilant Unit Mod is also worth taking a look at for some Thunder Warrior helmets for those asking about helmets.

@AbbaEnclave, there are already pre made squads for every legion, I'm not sure what you were asking?

@Galaxy Rose, lemme know if you need help with that from my side

@RBH1138, all Imperial Records were erased... I don't wanna add another grey/white/black-esque legion, with just a pauldron roman numeral change.

And for everyone asking about helmets, maybe one day you'll get one from me, though there is already one out there in this mod

You're missing two. If you're going to have them wear Astartes colors and have all 18, then you'll need to add the last two Legions, since they wouldn't have been erased from history yet.

This is perfect for going side by side with my Imperial Army/Geno Soldier mod I'm making
