We’ve bought a Leman Russ and a brand new Rogal Dorn tank…What in regards to the different Warhammer 40K Primarchs?
Not that the Emperor would ever play favorites along with his sons or something however now that two of them have Astra Militarum Tanks named after them, I’m questioning if the opposite are only a tad bit jealous. And yeah, the Emperor in all probability doesn’t have a lot say within the matter. And additionally it’s the Astra Militarum and never, say, Space Marine tanks…however nonetheless. It could be fairly the dignity to the reminiscence of these Primarchs to have a tank named after them, proper?
I don’t want a tank. I’m nonetheless right here!
So, lore causes apart, let’s assume the opposite Primarchs bought to grow to be tanks. Or even simply autos for the Astra Militarum — what varieties of autos would they be?
Lion El’Jonson – Astra Militarum Jet Bikes
The “Jonson” Jet Bike has a pleasant ring to it! Also, did you even know that the Imperial Guard had Jet Bikes again within the day?! The could be one heck of a name again.
Jaghatai Khan – Valkyrie / New Flyer
Okay, I do know what you’re pondering. “Why wouldn’t you make this a biker unit — it’s the White Scar’s thing!” And yeah. I get that. But bikes ARE a White Scars factor. The Astra Militarum aren’t White Scars. At finest, they’re just like the searching falcons that the White Scars use. So let the Astra Militarum be the “eyes in the sky” for the Hunting Packs of White Scars with a brand new sort of Flyer.
The hen is the Astra Militarum on this state of affairs.

So right here’s the factor a couple of automobile named after Sanguinius. We want one thing that matches in with the theme of the Blood Angels. They are actually good artisans. They are additionally Space Vampires and get fairly bloodthirsty. They even have the Black Rage — however that’s not precisely frequent information exterior of the Blood Angel’s and their successors. So that’s out proper alongside the thought of Space Vampires. That leaves actually good artisans.
It may simply be a Baneblade variant known as the Sanguinator or one thing. But what if the identify was extra in regards to the thought of Blood and/or therapeutic? Like a battlefield medicae unit. Or possibly we simply go together with a Hellhound variant that shoots blood or one thing grimdark. I’m open to recommendations on this one, of us.
Ferrus Manus – New Chimera known as ‘The Gorgon’
Wait, what do you imply that’s already a factor!? Does Forge World depend? What about an artillery piece known as the Medusa — additionally in honor of the Iron Hand’s nod to classical Greek mythology?
Dang it Forge World! Stop having concepts from years in the past which might be what we’re attempting to provide you with now. Fine. You know what, Ferrus Manus doesn’t get a brand new automobile.
Vulkan – New Hellhound
It’s the flame-spewing tank. C’mon. This one simply writes itself.
Corvus Corax – New Cyclops Demolition Vehicle
Think about it. It’s stealthy and self-destructive. Nothing else could be extra emo than sneaking as much as the enemy and detonating which is why a Corax Demolition Vehicle could be good.
What if Guilliman simply makes use of this chance to troll his brothers…
This was not the return of Loyalist Primarchs we have been hoping for.
