Kakophoni (Named after their [[Kakophoni |very own weapon]] [[Derp|or vice versa]]), also known as '''Cacophonies''' were specialized troops utilized by the [[Emperor's Children]] [[Space Marine]] Legion early in the [[Horus Heresy]]. These Death Metal heads were the proto-[[Noise Marine]]s and therefore its precursor before such a thing originally existed, and as such, were immediately 100% more [[Awesome]].

==Overview==

First developed upon the corruption of the Legion as well as their [[Primarch]] [[Fulgrim]] in the aftermath of the [[Battle of Isstvan III]], practices and experiments that had once been long secret were unleashed and fused with malign [[Warp]] forces. The result was savagely powerful weapons produced from a fusion of Imperial and Xenos technology called...well...''[[Kakophoni]]''. They were able to unleash blasts of screaming discordant energy that can rupture flesh and incinerate metal, but their most...''interesting'' ability was to [[Wat|open up the minds]] of those they touch to the [[Daemon|hentai monsters]] of the Warp. How these weapons could 'open up the minds' whilst the target is too busy/distracted in having his head caved in by sonic amplifications, [[Derp|we have no idea.]] They were also equipped with in-built sonic microphones called [[Sonic Shrieker]]s that has definitely [[Original character, do not steal|'''''NO''''']] bearing with the [[Eldar]]'s [[Banshee Mask]]. However, these weapons were also dangerously unpredictable in their early versions. They also carry a [[Bolt Pistol]] as a sidearm, but nobody gives a shit about it.

They were led by an '''Orchestrator''' who can be armed with a [[Chainsword]] or [[Power Weapon]]/[[Power Fist]].

These warriors first made their encore debut for the first time in the [[Drop Site Massacre]] to release their new hit single. Unfortunately, the [[Iron Hands|guests]] [[Raven Guard|weren't]] [[Salamanders|too impressed.]] [[Rage|Some have even made their own opinions on their new hit R&B track.]] Suffice to say, the Kakophoni would eventually be replaced by the [[Noise Marines|newer boy bands]] as the OGs began to degenerate, self-mutilate, and mutate under [[Chaos]] influence.

As they were considered as 'elite' shock troopers, Kakophonies wore the more (At the time) modern [[Mark IV: Maximus Armour]]. The Orchestrator on the other hand wore [[Artificer Armour]].

==Crunch==
They are 150pts for five noisy boys and 25pts per model for an additional five. Proto-Noise Marines with BS4, each one is armed with the Kakophoni: a 36" S6 AP5, Assault 3 gun with ''Pinning, Shell Shock (1), Deflagrate'' and ''Gets Hot''. They have Bolt Pistols for melee purposes and Sonic Shriekers to encourage enemy units going for a Charge to fuck around and find out. The Orchestrator can buy artificer armour and a Chainsword or Power Weapon/Fist; the latter choice is questionable, but has its uses. Kakophoni Squads are Traitor only, ''Fearless'', and can take a Rhino as a Dedicated Transport.
