Editing Astral Claws (section)

===Enter the Astral Claws===
The Astral Claws saw their first depiction in a publication covering the Badab War, printed sometime in the mid-1300's. Unfortunately, the poor bastards looked like they were designed by a blind Jackson Pollock, sporting an atrocious tiger-stripe color scheme. Needless to say, most people didn't give them a second glance. Not to mention the fact that the fluff surrounding the Astral Claws in the first [[Badab War]] book was hella weak, even by Games Workshop standards. Anyway.

The Astral Claws received a much-needed makeover in Forgeworld's <u>Imperial Armour Volume IX: The Badab War Part 1</u>. The 'Claws got a new, significantly less horrifying design, and the old Tony the Tiger pattern was pushed off onto one of the Astral Claws' successor chapters, the unfortunate [[Tiger Claws]]. With IA nine came a slew of new background for both the Astral Claws and the Badab War itself.
