Nice one! You are probably aware chaos squats make the space crusade androids too?
A bit of ai to get some relevant info on this:
Yes, Chaos Squats did make androids! In early Warhammer 40k lore, they were explicitly credited with creating the infamous Chaos Androids. The Lore of Chaos AndroidsThe Creators: During the Rogue Trader era (1st Edition), certain tainted Chaos Squat fabricators working alongside Chaos Renegades held the secret to forging these machines. How They Worked: Because the Imperium banned true Artificial Intelligence, and Chaos thrives on emotion, the Chaos Squats didn’t use software. Instead, a Chaos Sorcerer would bind a tiny daemon inside the plasteel shell to act as its animating spirit. Personality: The trapped daemons hated being imprisoned in inorganic metal skeletons. Because of this, they would actively try to maliciously misinterpret or subvert any orders given to them by their mortal masters.
You would be correct. Notice that stat line. Rogue trader was more a suggestion of how to do mass combat as the rules were a series of complex and often inane (but hilarious) rules pairings. Rogue trader was first ed just FYI. There was no “offical” first edition.
