Celebrations and joyful occasions continued to triumph around the cities of Lucius for a few more days. A moment where the people would organically mingle and gain the understanding that they were indeed a group of people tied together for the near future.
As the last day of the festivities came the grounds of the streets were roaring with the cries of engines. To solidify the alliance between the Imperium and the Mechanicum, and brotherhood, the two brand new tanks began rolling out of the factories through the streets for everyone to look at.
One of the many who were there to witness it gave a hearty laugh as he looked upon it, “Well would you look at that, it is a mighty fine tank!”
TalOS watched as his brother gave a powerful and hearty laugh as the Skitarii operators demonstrated the skill of menuevoring and ability that the tank had. The top of it was from another STC, being a Plasma annihilator from a Knight Castellan.
“You know brother, I was afraid I was going to share my name with a tea kettle!” Laughed the Primarch as he looked upon it with a grin, “But that is a mighty fine tank that will share my name, Leman Russ!”
“It is a great STC you have discovered. Analysis has determined that the Tank is both cheaper and stronger to produce than the Malcador. While it lacks in sheer durability, the price per model is 61 percent less.” TalOS said all of that to finally announce, “As it measures the same in almost all other measurements, while also being much easier to operate, it will become the replacement for our Uncle’s legacy vehicle.”
“Really now?” There was a dangerous grin going across the face of Leman as he heard those words, “So that means our brothers will have to deal with people saying my name several times a day?”
“Yes, it will.” TalOS gave an honest answer to his brother.
To those words the Primarch gave the heartiest and well growled laugh TalOS had ever heard from the man. It might as well be the funniest thing the man had ever heard, or it could be he just loved the idea of eternally annoying his brothers with his antics until the end of days.
It was funny though, TalOS would say to a Priest as he was questioned why the hell didn’t they go by its STC designation.
