    Depends - I used to be clued up on it a couple of years ago, specialising in the Imperium, but haven't kept in touch with the new canon. What race(s) are you interested in?

    I've been reading tons about the lore, specially some of the most recent ones; Guilliman's Indomitus Crusade...

    I'm planning to write a fluff about a Krieg "Pariah" Coz I kinda fell in love with the epic Death Korps of Krieg... Tho the Pariah concept is rather a recent idea...

    Its purty much interesting take considering the intrigues, not to mention the kind of heretical concept sorrounding the gene itself...

    Here's the part of my character intro for my fluff;


    “For she is like a lonesome wildflower; so alluring, but deadly, such a fragile thing seemingly trapped here in this madness, that we call war… And yet damning as this place might seem; isn’t it such a rare sight to see this graceful sapling blossom amidst the brutal carnage of this battlefield..? But be forewarned mere mortals, those whom are foolish enough to even dare lay eyes on her; as she unveils her serene beauty for all to behold…”

    “Be blessed, for one shall bare witness to an angel radiant as the emperor’s divine light; bring fourth one’s undeserved salvation… Or accursed be it all fate, that one may need to shed all hope; knowing that a vengeful wraith, the harbinger of demise bares down to smite one’s maligned existence…”

    -Unnamed Death Korps Quartermaster, reliving a battlefield myth about “Grenadier 31”

    The timeline into Gulliman's Indomitus Crusade is a bit muddled, shall we say, as the new story clearly has Primaris Marines having served for quite some time. So I'm not sure if Gulliman's 'Resurrection' happens at the direct end of M41 (when the original Eye of Terror campaign happened) or if they dialed it back a bit.

    I know the premise for the slightly updated setting is 'two minutes to midnight', which would lean towards 999.M41 in my books, but I think that will be a little more clear once the new rulebook is available (And I've finished reading it all Wink )

    Timeline certainly works for right now! You're literally on the cutting edge of 40k Lore!

    I also thinks that theres about 200 year gap in between the Third war for Armageddon and the Indomitus Crusade...

    Imma thinking of buying some books myself... but Imma not sure on which books to buy; I'm currently basing my Character info based on the Warhammer 40k wiki and Lexecarium thingy...

    Basically my Character is of Krieg decent... She's serving as Death Korps of Krieg Guardsman...She discovers that she has the "Pariah" gene which nearly kills her and her unit gets wiped out in the process; She presumed to be dead...

    Then fastforward leik 200 years... She turns out to be alive, but is somewhat amnisiac, she's a throne agent for an inquisitor... She trained with both the Culexis Temple and the Sisters of Silence... She turned out to be a pontent null maiden...

    Then she gets tangled up with a 3 way conflict with the imperium, the eldar, and the Necrons

    Gulliman's return spanned several or more months if not years. Basically what seems to have confused people is that his return in real world took 3 months. Whereas in game took quite a considerable time, due to ingame and story events. The Indomitus Crusade also seems to have been both initiated for some time and just started.

    (BTW. I've been waiting 25 years for the return of a Primarch and particularly Gulliman. Since I was a young teenager).

    One should think of the Primaris Marines as being closer to the Great Crusade era Marines following 10,000 years of genetic drift the 'Marines' of this era are not Crusade era level marines. The Primaris Marines being a return to strength of the forces of the Imperium.

    So for the most part, I want my fluff to look and feel legit, while also being original and unique at the same time... But I won't be that ballsy to actually include Guilliman (I am not worthy~) in my story, save for some passing comments here and there...

    Also I have to note that Abaddon the Dispoiler's 13th Black Crusade happened on 999.M41 So its safe to say that M42 Is somewhat a decent date to start, coz it'll be a few decades later at best after the start of the Crusade...

    Feel free to correct meh, Imma just a 1 month old Warhammer 40k noob...

    One month in? Welcome to the club!

    There used to be a slogan for writting for GW of "Do whatever you want, just be sure the toys fir back in the box when you're done". It's changed somewhat, obviously, but that was certainly the gig a while back.

    Having the story start after Indomitus has begun is totally fine, in fact a lot of the background from here on in while be right there with you!

    Timelines are also a little rough. I like to blame it on the warp myself, but your timeline sounds fine to me!

    The Dawn of War series wasn't too shabby on the lore. GW tends to license out their IP to anyone who seems to have a 'interesting' concept for game, and this doesn't always work out in our favour, but the Dawn of War series was pretty close (High jumping Cataphractii armoured Chapter Master is an obvious departure...)

    There is *a lot* of background material, but that is partially the point. It's a giant space sandbox for a reason. You're also joining in at the largest upheaval in 20 years, so there is that too Big Grin

    The idea sounds great to me thus far!

    Warning:
    Lotsa 8th edition spoilas, enough to make the inquisition frown... and it actually gave one of meh biggest plot breaks to date; Armageddon somewhat becomes a demi demon world... Angron tries to make an epic comeback aka 4th War for Armageddon (possibly?)

    Which was actually part of me first drafts; a supposed demon incursion on Armageddon (Coz I had noticed tons of demonic spots left over from the first Armageddon War...) But GW took it a step further, I guess...

    Oh well, revisions, revisions, revisions... I might wait for more info on it... might as well mess with the artwork...

    I like your opening to the 40K autobiography. Smile

    I wish I could help you on the lore, but the only things I know about 40K are...
    • Space Marines serve the Emperor
    • Orks (with a "K") have an interesting vocabulary
    • Everyone tends to fight everyone
    • Battles are usually massive in scale

    I like the way the current 8th edition codex lore plays into my hands so far... but I kinda have huge plot twists that I had picked up while reading the past codex books... especially those little known events in the past that few peeps might realize that will have huge ramifications to the current lore... (tho I must admit that GW might have retcon some of them...)

    But it'll be fun seeing the reactions of peeps to them... Big Grin

    For now the only mainstream lore character that I will have to my story is Trazyn the Infinite... that alone should say miles to the extent of the plotline...

    Speaking of plotlines; since I am near curtain that Armageddon (Fourth War for Armageddon, anyone..?) will play an important (if not pivotal) role on the main lore, I had revised meh opening to leik somewhere near the end of 999.M4... Maybe sometime after the fall of Cadia; or after the start of Guilliman's "Terran Crusade"

    P.S.

    Slynn can you leik please render meh character line art..? I'll send you the first drafts, plus color references probably within 2 weeks tops... purty pwease..?
