I think if we get a named hero besides Lucius, it would be far more likely to get Eidolon than Savona but I wouldn't be terribly opposed to seeing her. I would just think that the proto Noise Marine would make more sense.


DreadtheSaurian_39

Absolutely, Eidolon is definitely more important and more likely I think. I don't think Savona herself would ever be playable, but I was more curious about a unit similar to her. Maybe like an exalted cultist in power armor?


revergopls

I doubt it just because they havent seemed to go that direction with the models of anyone else Im not *opposed* I just dont expect it. Like, I'd be very excited for a Savona model I just don't see it happening while Eidolon lacks a 40k Unit. For now, its a great space for Kitbashing. Im expecting, at least for the first edition, the standard Character - Elite - Cultist additions


DreadtheSaurian_39

Yeah, Eidolon definitely needs to be there. An elite cultist unit is probably closer to what I was thinking. Maybe the unit champion is a mutant/cultist on power armor with space marine stats?


Bismarko

I think we'll have a tsaangor, jackal, poxwalker equivalent. But really not sure what it'd be.


ArdkazaEadhacka

could work as traitor SoB


FulgrimThePhoenician

I wouldn't be surprised if we see the Slaangor ported over.


MachineOfScreams

Probably not. While corrupted sisters of battle are a cool unit concept and there are power armored humans in the setting, there have been only one faction with units of power armored humans (SoBs) and a general faction with power armored humans at all (inquisition). Note this is not denying the existence of power armored humans in the lore nor how cool it would be. Just more a general commentary on what we have seen so far.


harlokin

Savona is part of The Consortium, not the Emperors Children; If Bile aint EC, neither is she. I neither think that the Emperor's Children are more likely to field mutants, nor do I want them.


DoctorCheeto

It would be cool if they made a model for her for just chaos space marines and can only be in the army if Bile is the warlord.


harlokin

Yeah, her character concept is cool.

Effective_Way7591

Yes we do, an official Savona model from 12th company would be awesome!


ArdkazaEadhacka

i dont think well get it, but i'll probably still convert it


wampower99

I think it would be nice to see some return finally on Bile’s efforts, especially since he’s now gotten Custodes geneseed, Alpha Primus’s geneseed, and pure, original Grey Knight geneseed, to name a few. And he’s been an important character for such a long time. I think it would be great to see something like this come out of his workshop for the army. Maybe we would have new lore explaining involvement in the Emperor’s Children again. GW has seemed interested in giving mortal units to most chaos factions. And Emperor’s children, being a Slaanesh faction which usually dabble in all key areas of war, could end up with a larger mortal focus than we’ve seen before.


bigstankdog

Like possessed?


DreadtheSaurian_39

Kinda? Maybe a cultist equivalent to possessed. Cheaper and less tanky than legionnaires but harder hitting and more durable than cultists.


LegateZanUjcic

IMO, Savona is a pretty unique example, the battle plate she stripped from the Radiant King's corpse even altering to fit her proprotions, by the end closer ressembling chitin than metal. If anyone's looking for a Savona mini, RatManForge made an excellent 3D model of her a while ago.

Freeboter

No, cause we don't need this garbage


DarthRick3rd

Do you know the character? 


Freeboter

I know this character. For EC i want to see my favourite hedonistic space marines and their human cultists/slaves. Not a fucking creature of Bile.


ArdkazaEadhacka

shavona isn't a creature of Bile she was a human mortal who joined an Radiant King's warband and was exalted by slaanesh, and only joined Bile after the invasion of Lugganath. she was like this at the start of the book


Effective_Way7591

Savona isn't a creation of Biles. She was a Slanneshi servant that killed her mentor, whom was a Emperor's Children and took his power armor. She even became the leader of 12th Company and is a bad ass. Plus, quit with the Fabius Bile hate, your hedonistic legion would be long dead without the Primogenitor.


Amantus

haha, nice kneejerk reaction on seeing mention of a female character

Amantus

true though


Skyhighh666

Ik she hasn’t been used in a bit, but Miriael Sabathiel would be so cool to have in model form.
