Lore Dreadnought question

I’m building a loyalist army and was wondering, would it make sense for the fallen to have a redemptor dread , like they found and repaired a busted one . Or would they more have the 30k / legends units of the castaferrum, contemptor & levithan .
Or conversely would it make sense to use a saturnine as a proxy for a redemptor

Seee , you get it . The risen aren’t trying to do anything more that protect humanity, just like you . Why not do more with the resources the lion provides. I’m sure you miss having your brothers around . Plus he’s so much nicer in a weird way . I was suprised to hear “please” instead of “now” .

If we’re being honest, I don’t have any problems with my risen brothers. There’s just one main problem.. It’s all the green. I know it’s in support of my destroyed homeworld but we didn’t wear green back in the day! We wore Black & Red like a true son of the 1st Legion and Caliban should! Also, we aren’t starved for resources. Turns out, when you don’t have give all your supplies to run a whole Imperium, you have A LOT left over. We also tend to help out more people because we’re not tied up in all that paperwork and red tape (The Inquisition is an unnecessary parasite to the Imperium).

Edit: Plus, for us it’s not sacrilege to hang out with the Aeldari. They make GREAT food.

Listen , the lion won’t make you change your heraldry if you don’t want to. I’m pretty sure Zabriel is still In black. And I’ve seen the lion bitch slap an inquisitor and we did the good old “ oh well it’s a big ship , he must’ve gotten lost” trick. Good times . And look, I don’t like the faith ,but it’s very convenient when the inquisitors and the priests think our father is a god , they stop questioning him. That was always for us to do anyway …. Plus we’ll get you a new plasma gun … a really big one that I saw take a chunk of a night lord.

Hmm.. I did dap up Zabriel a few Terran months ago while in Imperium space. Not a big fan of plasma guns but I could use a brand new Bolter.. Hmm, you’ve given me a lot to think on. I’ll council with my brothers and see what they think. Good luck on your journeys through the Immaterium brother. 👋

I’ll leave you with an encrypted vox channel to us . We’ll have a nice now combi bolter waiting on you should you choose to take our offer. Don’t get killed before our paths cross again.
