Captian Julius Khan walked towards the dark light halls of the hallowed armatorium of the White Scars Fortress Monastery, stopping only to look up at the mighty doors of steel, ceramite and adamantium the only markings was of a gaint metal and stone relief of half skull half machine insignia of the Omnissiah. His Master, Jubal Khan him ordered the Ork infestion of the system to be halted, and the beasts culled for daring to bring their so called 'waagh' into Imperial space by any means, even so this was an order the Merciless Second would not hesitate to carry out in the extreme.
His company, was in the process of finishing its preparations of the war to come, even then, the time arrived for him to address one last item, that singular item led him to these doors, to stand before one of the chapters Tech Priests, or Tech marine and appeal for additional armoured support through one of these Martian Priests of the Omnissiah or Machine god.
After a moment to eye up the relief he Walked up to the doors that led into this hallowed hall of the Omnissiah's chosen war forms. Placing his left hand on the bio scanner next to the door he heard the soft clicks as the machine hooked directly into his nerual interface through his armour, using that data and more through sciences unknown to him it verified and unlocked the doors. as the captain due his hand back the now unlocked doors hissed of hydrolic pressure and as it cracked slowly open moments later his nostrils were assailed by the sweet armoa of blessing oils and scared insense used to keep the Forge Master's Charges appeased.
Within moments of entering the titanic hall a pinprick senstion washed over his body, much like walking through cobwebs as he could only describe it as phasing through an invisiable veil made from the bleed off of energy off multiples devices producing a mariad of ectromagnetic, and stasis fields to protect the stewarts from Mistress times unwelcome claws. The minut hairs on the back of his neck rose instantly as if to readying for battle against the Invisable force, but he pushed away the uneasy feelings casually as if it was a regular event and walked deeper into the hall looking from side to side for the hint of a priest to lay his request on.
Within moments and still not noticing anyone apart form the dozens of mindless servitors preforming there assigned tasks diligently he stopped to look at the lines of Predator Battle tanks, Rhinos, Razorbacks and more looking up he saw the unmistable prow of Storm Talon gunships attached by mag-grapples to the ceilling, slightly distracted as he eyed up the many war machines and all there possible uses in the campaign to come, Julius failed in noticing that one of the priest hood had arrived, having been alerted moments after he used the bio scanner and was even now drawing closer and closer.
Dispite hir size, stature and even the gentle continuous hum of hir servo-harness power plant the Master of the Forge suddenly let hirself feel a moment of emotional outburst, normally seen as abhorant for one of hir rank in the priesthood but shi let it slide mentally as the side of hir mouth sneered for a second pleased that shi snuck up on the Captian of the "Mercliess Second". letting his eyes wonder a few moments more, and noticing hir presence still unnoticed shi suddenly tapped the base of hir omni-tool war axe on the floor with a reverbating clang moments before speaking up. hir voice broadcasted from hir lips with the assistance of a vox implant in hir neck, the effect was instant, hir voice commanding and full with a surprising authoritive tone that couldn't be denied, to the point that even the Servitors ceased their tasks and faced hir as if waiting to receive new orders.
"Captian Julius, how good of you to come and see me and my Charges, they hear tales of wars on far away plains, of glory to be earned" Shi begin as the captain spun on his heel no matter how hard he tried to conceal it shi noticed the momentary wash of surprize on his face, he had expected a priest or a lesser member of the tech marine order not the chapter's Master of the Forge hirself. shi continued as shi glared down at him, hir glowing red optic implant rotating slightly to narrow the lens as if to zero in on him. "And speak of Green-skins who choose to foolishy stand against the Imperium... now tell me, which of my charges am I to release into your care this time..."

Well everyone I hope you liked that little write up/ short story i did :3 as you can see this is a piece done by the always epic
strype a while ago he had a sign up for warhammer 40K themed pictures and he came to me asking if i was interested.
well as you know being the 40k nerd that i am I pounced at the chance to get in and am extremely happy to get one! oh ya *chakitty happy dance*
Now for those who have wondered why am i a Tech Marine/Master of the Forge the answer is actually simple! well its a 2 parter actually.
1. for the local gaming group of all the players I literally out number everyone else in armoured vehicles of my total collection of all my armies about 2 to maybe even 3 to 1. ya no joke, we played a game of tanksgiving once when the store was forced to do the us holiday event and dispite someone coming in with 2 titans when the game ended i still outnumbered all the other players 2 to 1... and that was after 2 turns of just everyone ganging up on only my armour!
2. there is a gentlemen who came by years ago who worked for GW he was one of the regional managers of the company can't remember his name or anything but anyway, i pulled out all the armour i had at the time as he was curious, told him how much i still had at my house and showed him some photos people had taken of my complete force... his instant responce afterwards was "dear lord... your a freaking tech marine... or a mobile humanoid forgeworld aren't you!?" i just responded with "um.... maybe" *chuckles*
so thats why i picked tech marine and as always strypes work is worth every buck i love this piece! now all i want to do is turn it into an awesome conbadge to wear to the furcons! yay *happy dance again*
Cheers, Silky

hmmm.. well if that was happening i don't think i be to worried... after all the fortress' void shields would give amazing protection and even then any of those vehicles 'touching down' wouldn't really be usable as free fall from low orbit would decimate them beyond service :P and besides some of the white scars would take it as a challange to go out driving on a bike in it and see how much debris they could dodge ;)
hey i wouldn't mind... sadly though tanks don't have the staying power they used too. though i still think they should have changed a little how glancing hits work but iknow the way i prefer would just add more rolls and slow the game down opposite of what the company wanted.
I've looked over the new rules, but have yet to actually play a game with them yet. But from what I've read I like most of the new rules, like the return of "overwatch" using a much better system that doesn't lead to the stand and shoot armies of 2nd edition. And now a tank in a squadron aren't just destroyed because it gets immobilized. The flyer rules seem to be pretty logical too. I will need to seriously find some time to play a game or two soon. Been eagerly awaiting the release of a new Dark Angels codex.
i have seen some of the models for the new dark angels... some of them i like others... really i don't :/ *sighs* but oh well. :P most likely the ones i don't like are the ones who are gonna turn up as the 'must have to win' items :P
with the release of hullpoints on vehicles they really really don't have the staying power they used too. glance a vehicle 4 times and you'll kill any normal vehicle in the game. 5 for one of the forge world ones. which pretty much makes it that funny enough Missile Launchers are not the single most used weapon in the game even more so now... as they can kill anything maybe not the quickest but they can, or how you can watch a Titan be ass raped by a unit of 20 necron warriors standing 12 inchs away as every roll of 6 takes away a hullpoint and they need to roll 9 to kill the weakest no save aloud :P, before you ask yes i watched it happen... the titan player was flipping pissed. there are many things though sadly people 'break to there advantage' in the new rules which always happens but it can get annoying... the edition is suppose to be more for fun and yet i've seen more "this is my god mode list... die and go home as you don't have a chance" or at least thats with alot of the people around here. :/
in the end getting some games in with the new edition will give you a good idea of how the rules work :) and if we play i'm sure i can teach ya as we play :)

*chuckles* there's those power players in every edition. Remember when armored company come out, and people were flipping out over it? I prefer to run with a theme and if I win great, if I lose oh well. *shrugs* I like building a story behind my units and building the models more. And of course, playing with friends who aren't twinks.
*shi nods* fair enough you are much more of aplayer like me hon i enjoy greatly more just putting together themed lists that are fun not trying to make the most op of the book... sadly the number of people who are doing weblists and all lately around my local store have been... increasing at a very quick rate as everyone wants to finally just sit down and beat one another not have fun... i still don't do it but it annoys me more and more...
*giggles and smiles* thank you this piece is a wonderful one to get from Strype as is any of his works :) and i think many would agree me as a Master of the Forge would be a worrying foe if i was like this 8laughs* :3 i get like 7 attacks on the charge ;) 2 base, 2 for arms, 1 for 2close combat weapons, and another 2 for my forepaws ;) muahahaha!
Master of the Forge? Bah, a mere child with blocks in comparison to a Warsmith!

it would fit in plates over the lower half I would imagine. the upper torso would be like anyone else.. now the best question is more ... how would my servo harness work ;) I joked with goldfur on this matter and said I be like a big mecha spider chakat! shi just laughed at the idea.
*shi giggles and smirks* you would be surprised the level of awareness a space marine has even in his armour, and as for restrictions they have again less then you would think. a tech marine as shown here is a bit slower then your normal marine as you can imagine but with the extensive upgrades they trade speed for sheer durability you could shoot one in the head and he can just shrug it off and keep walking at you considering that a good deal of their body is extensive bionics as a Iron Hands captain (they used as many bionics as techmarines on a regular guy sometimes) put it when a chaos marine put his sword straight through his chest where his heart would normally be. "oh.. you aimed for my heart, normally such tactic would work" the captain then raised his gun and blew the guy apart with his storm bolter "except that I now have 3 hearts in 3 different locations in my body... to bad you won't live to learn on that mistake"
at the same time a techmarines armour is made of such substances and how hard it is that their armour can absorb the impact of a Missile normally used to break open a tank, or even a tank round itself and just walk through it as if it was bugged by some mesquites. these guys are 8 to 10 feet talk gene engineered super soldiers who are designed purposefully to go toe to toe with a lot of the biggest and meanest things in the galaxy and win. and considering to fight them would be like trying to fight a walking, thinking tank with a rapid firing rocket launcher as a standard issue weapon I do believe they make up for any restrictions they may have. <.<

i do have a space master of the forge i could paint up to look like this style of armour.. but to do the proper modeling to make it just like how i am crossed with a tech marine would be more then beyond my skills... considering i would need to make it into a taur :P
why thank you. :) i am a large fan of the game as well and have many a picture of 40k themed art, helps when you have 2 sketch books dedicated to the cause *giggles* :) this is one of my favorite pieces and my friend Strype did an amazing job. :) i would always rate him as one of the best i know. :)
