Loxodon Guard Part 7: Looking Ahead

So this is where the collection stands currently, It about 60 infantry and characters and 4 Dreadnoughts.  I think I got the Space Marine bug. They are super easy to build and paint. there a lot of character that you have give them also.    What's next for them? I do want another Apothecary, I might get a Redemptor Dreadnought and jazz him up for a "Titan Father". If GW makes a Venerable Redemptor Dreadnought I will hop on that one. I also have an idea for a Chapter Master, using a Pra

Loxodon Guard Part 6: Titan Brothers

So one of the guiding themes of the Loxodon Guard was that they respected Resilience and Experience. Which made me gravitate towards the Dreadnoughts. As being interred into a Dreadnought is kind of the ultimate expression of "Only in Death Does Duty End" motto. So I choose to feature Redemptor Dreadnoughts heavily in the army. The Loxodon Guard view the "Titan Brothers" in high esteem. Each echelon (aka company) is given 5 Primaris Dreadnoughts. The oldest dreadnought is referred to as the "Tit

Loxodon Guard Part 5: Putting the Guard in Loxodon Guard

So when the release of the primaris line in 2017(?) I was on board unlike some people. I remember seeing the Horus Hersey 32mm MkIII models at my local gaming shop and saying "Man, these guys would look great for 40k". Was the release of the primaris the best way to go at the line refresh? Well hindsight is 20/20. It got me to start an army.    When I started the Loxodon Guard, one of the first purchases was the Deathwatch Combat Patrol box. I think I mostly wanted it for the Apothecar

Loxodon Guard Part 4: Covert Actors

I have a soft spot for snipers. When I recently brainstorm ideas for short stories 3 out of the 10 ideas I came up with had snipers feature in this as the main character. I also have soft spot of the assassins and all things Officio Assasinorum. I remember when the 3rd edition Codex: Assassins was released.  My brother and I pick up the both the Vindicare and Callidus assasins. Those models have long since sold off. But I did pick up the current Callidus assassin model  Gwenthar Mor,

Loxodon Guard Part 3: Even More Characters

Yup I got even more characters for ya.  Soonrem “True Heart”  Thron, Apothecary for the 2nd Echelon. I accidentally broke off the hanging bit that usually in his left hand.  Drom “Sabretooth”Hel,  Master of Sanctity of the Loxodon Guard. I went with the execrator chaplain model for this guy. I'm not a fan of the current primaris chaplain model, this guy looks so much more dynamic. Also there's not a lot of Black Templar icons on him, so I think he fits nicely.

Loxodon Guard Part 2: Concepts and Characters

Coming up with army lists and character concepts is one of the most enjoyable parts of this hobby for me. When I was working on my little kill team I went through a few ideas. First, I wanted to incorporate white into the colour scheme. Since my 3 other armies didn't have any white. So armies like Raven Guard and White Scars came to mind.   I ultimately chose a homebrew chapter because like most people who do homebrews, I didn't want to be tied down to a set of rules or fluff. Then I s

Loxodon Guard Part 1: In the Beginning...

Have you ever pick up a project based whim? or maybe you were given some models from a loved one and continued on with it?    My Space Marine project started when I won a raffle at my FLGS. my prize was a plastic bag that had a few random sprues in it. I remember there was some Mk3 Horus Hersey Marines, a Beastmen Shaman, a Imperial Guard Commissar (the older one with the plasma pistol & sabre) and 5 Intercessors. I didn't think much of my prize at the time. Until the pandemic hit
