Feature Highlight - Skitarii Visual Design

do you guys think you could give us a road map for the future of Darktide? As a new player (i just got the game last week), I just got the Arbites class and I will def get the new Skitarii class as well but as for actual content like new missions, new enemies & new campaigns (expansions), whats the deal with all that?

Do want to point out that Ogryn in current lore aren’t just dumb, but rather untaught, while their older lore bits did set them as pretty stupid, it isn’t really that accurate to current depictions.


Inquisitorial Rosettes are 2 things:

  • Actual/official Rosettes: Given to Inquisitors only when they become actual Inquisitors, contain encrypted data to give links toward which Order and other useful information (Keys and such)
  • Badge of Office: 1st seen on one of the Crusader miniature and mentioned in Dark Heresy, symbols that cheaply resemble Rosettes (iirc styled toward the relevant Inquisitor’s own rosette) and mark the wearer as being owned by the Inquisition.

I’m pretty sure ogryns were made a bit smarter by gw after they realised that a giant building sized baby was not a realistic asset for an army. Ogryn needs to be a bit smarter than old lore otherwise they’d be pointless and liabilities. They’d not respond to orders and couldn’t even reload weapons etc.

GW Just took it too far originally. How they are portrayed in DT is much more believable

i’m sure they’ll be happy to sell us more stuff of this kind, if skitarii don’t share the fate of arby and scum…
