The finest recruits;
discipline enforced by the most ruthless of the commissariat; the
finest equipment the Adeptus Mechanicus can muster - meet the
Aquarian Guard!
It
was the height of the Eye of Terror, I was in Thirsk in North
Yorkshire, walking down the street and mulling on the performance of
the Crinan IVth and the general
chaos in the Scarus Sector, when I saw a hairdressers on the
mainstreet called Aquarian. The name stuck with me: and as I
walked along it occured to me that this was the name of an IG army.
Not a SAFH, and nothing like the Crinan
IVth, but an elite army. I had a picture in my head of
dark grey uniforms and disciplined lines of fire. And then I
thought storm troopers....
The
Kasrkin had just come out and an idea started to coalese: grey
uniforms; lots of tanks - in fact something similar to the look of
the Epic Steel Legion. An idea of tactics started to emerge as
well, something truly different to the
Crinan IVth....in fact a mechanised Storm trooper list, thier
tanks and plasma guns smashing their way through the Warhammer
universe....
