Personally, I think we're missing a larger "tank" style of support; The closest being our Tyranid friends atm. Something like a repurposed mining suit or exoskeleton, being used as a Dreadnought would be excellent imo. What would you like to see?
I made a post a couple days ago about this book after I realized the antagonists were a GSC, and I just finished it.
Now I say it is definitely a must read for GSC fans.
Namely for one reason that I realized after the previous post.
Unlike so many other Black Library novels, Clark did not nerf the antagonists here.
From start to finish, the Cult is shown to be extremely dangerous at every turn. There’s even a bit of a meta to the narrative as the Imperial Fists struggle to deal with them because they’re not a straightforward enemy that will simply meet them for one epic showdown, and it actually bothers them.
Several major units even get some pretty cool scenes to show off just how badass they are.
I won’t spoil anything, I’ll simply say my personal favorite was the Kelermorph, who was every bit the badass gunslinger I was hoping he would be. Like when he shows up, it’s like a straight up boss fight entrance.
If I do have any complaints, it would be that we don’t get a whole lot of POV chapters from the GSC. It’s exclusively from the Magus’s perspective, and even then, I would say, at most, it’s maybe 1/8 of the story’s length with her. The rest is all from the POV of Imperial Fists.
Personally I would have loved at least one or two from the Kelermorph’s perspective, solely because he’s my personal favorite unit in the GSC faction. Just have one chapter where we get to follow a scifi Clint Eastwood or something would have been amazing.
