People!! i only presented half the fluff, as my boss asked me to do some work. Here is the rest of it:
..., with a technological, cultural and linguistic base very similar in every planet. Exceptionally, some Slann groups live in isolated worlds outside the frontiers of what remains of the Slann Empire, including some planets of the Empire of Mankind. Those archaic Slann are distributed thoughout the Galaxy, and they are probably all that remains of ancient Slann colonies. Those primitive people have little to no contact with their more technologically advanced brethren.
They are a curious people, which few times comerces with any other species and which are unpredictable when it comes to territorial claims or any trivial rivalry. There is little a Slann can need or desire, and frequently merchants feel that they are beign studied, and that the exchange of goods is the less important matter for the Slann which whom they commerce.
Organization
Slann warriors are called Braves, and a group of Braves plus a leader make up a Warband. The number of warriors in a Warband vary, but it is normally between 6 & 8, although it can vary from 2 to 12. An officer named Battle Leader leads various bands. When an army is really big it wil have lots of Battle Leaders wich will meet before a battle to make plans and exchange ideas with Mages and other leaders.
The most respected and reverenciated of all Slann society people are the Great Mages. Their helpis always wellcome in battle, due to their inmense knowledge of magic, philosophy and arcane science. Great Mages always remain isolated from the rest of society, although the leaders of their people always seek their advice. Slann society is a tribal one, and the leader of every tribe is known as a Mage Chief. Except between the primitive Slaan, tribes never war against each other and their relations are peaceful.
The concept of Warband is important in the Slann actitude towards life. A Slann must live to a strange, mystical and unavoidable ritual, by which an individual goes through vaious phases. The call of one of those phases can be very real and imperative for a Slann, and it can occur at every moment, so a pacific technician can change in a single nieght to a vagabond, a warrior or enything else. Once a Slann feels the call to become a warrior he joins any Warband of his tribe or forms one of his own. Due to this unpredictable recruitment method, Warbands' structure changes continuosly.
Slann equipment and vehicles are much like this:
Primary weapon: Lasrifle
Heavy weapon: D-Cannon
Armour: Flak + Energy field (unmodified 4+ Sv in WH40k)
Additional equipment: Aimers
Vehicles: normally levitators or a combination of legged+flyer(???). Each tribe holds an inmense collection of old-beyond-measure (but stil at peak efficiency) vehicles
