Overview

So Saturnine is releasing this weekend and one of my LGS is going to be doing a Slow Grow League starting 500 pts. While I do have Loyalist XIXth Ravenguard, the Mk II/ Mk III armor does not look right to me. So I am putting the Mk II/ Mk III armors into XIVth Legion Death Guard. The plan XIVth Legion Primary Detachment 500 pts Centurion* CombiMelta Power Maul *Unnatural Resilience [+1 wd, Eternal Warrior ( 2)] Tactical Squad* +5 additional Legionares Vexilla Sgt Power Fist 15 pts *Master Sergeant [+1 Attacks, WS, Leadership, & Champion] Tactical Support Detachment Heavy Support Squad 5 Volkite Culverin Augury Scanner Tactical Support Squad 5 Volkite Caliver Also I plan on adding Knights from House Makabius.

Additions to the Assault Company: Dark Furies 1 of 2 Moritat and Champion Assault squad 1 of 3 Destroyers

Originally founded as the XIXth Legion, the Legion was used by the Emperor as his hidden hand in its early years during the Unification Wars on Terra. The original recruits of the Legion were firstborn sons drawn from tribes of savage yet technologically adept Xeric warriors of the Asiatic Dustfields, which regularly battled with the much larger Yndonesic Bloc. In its earliest days, the XIXth Legion was used for infiltration, reconnaissance, and target identification operations. The Legion was covertly used to quickly annihilate any faction which refused to submit to the new Imperium, striking from the shadows without warning. The XIXth used terror tactics similar to the Night Lords.[13] One of the earliest known campaigns by the Legion was the conquest of the central Asiatic region, which was ruled by a tyrant known as Kalagann of Ursh. They won many battle honors on Terra, and later took part in the expansion of the Imperium into the rest of the Sol System, liberating Jupiter's moon of Lysithea from xenos. The battle on Lysithea proved costly for the Legion and veterans of the battle wore Jovian runes in its commemoration for many years after. In the early days of the Great Crusade, the Legion found itself in the shadow of Horus and his Luna Wolves. While Horus valued the XIXth greatly, the Legions forces were largely serving as support troops for the Wolves. Originally During the Forgeworld/ Red Book Edition/ Betrayal of Calth/ Burning of Prospero of Horus Heresy (1st ed HH), I was trying to build Imperial Fists. The models ended up other places. When Horus Heresy Age of Darkness (2nd ed HH) released, I decided to switch to the XIXth legion. Over time the force grew, not all was built. One of the MHA member's had his Imperial Fist stolen so I donated my unbuilt, Legions Astartes Battle Group and Fafnir Rann. MHA had our Tanksgiving big game and since then I have not touched my XIXth Legion. Well, now we have Horus Heresy Age of Darkness- Saturnine (3rd ed HH) coming soon. I orginally was like "No I do not need anything in the box, besides the rules." Saturnine Armor, Mk II does not fit the XIXth Legion.....or does it. One of the things about my XIXth is I have a 15 man Deliverer Squad, "These warriors had trained alongside the infamous Justaerin Terminators of the Luna Wolves and mastered the tactics of close-range shock assault from both aerial transport and teleport deployment. The Legionaries of the Raven Guard and the Luna Wolves came to refer to these detachments as "Deliverers," both for the carnage they brought to their tendency to be deployed when the daring assaults favoured by the XIXth Legion floundered and threatened to fail. Horus himself was known to have honoured the Deliverers attached to the 11th Chapter ("Pale Nomads") for the ferocity of their counter-attack at the siege of Novas-praxim, including them as part of his personal entourage until the Raven Lord reclaimed command of his Legion." With the Deliverer Squad, and wanting to have a unique feel for my army..... "Though the Battle of Gate Forty-Two was counted a victory by (and indeed for) Horus, its effects were far-reaching. The XIXth Legion was sorely depleted, leaving only 80,000 Legionaries under their primarch's command and making it the smallest of the Legiones Astartes. Corax removed himself and his Legion from his brother's command, swearing bitterly never to serve alongside Horus again. One last consequence of the Battle of Gate Forty-Two lingers still to the present day. In the battle's aftermath, those Terran Raven Guard line officers who, before the coming of their primarch, had served for so long under Horus' command were gone, their lives lost to the slaughter, and so the Warmaster was never able to exert much in the way of influence over the Raven Lord's Legion. Many of these Terran Astartes had been inducted into the warrior lodges established in the XIXth Legion, and with their deaths these unseen bodies all but vanished from the Raven Guard. It has been claimed by his detractors that in assigning the Terran-born Legionaries to the assault wave at Gate Forty-Two that would suffer the greatest losses, Corax did his Legion a service, consolidating his power and paving the way for a future more in line with his own vision." This led to this Army badge Raptor Imperialis- Originally, this honour badge was only used by the proto-Astartes known as the Thunder Warriors, but would later be adopted by the genetically-enhanced regiments of the Excertus Imperialis and the early Terran-born Legiones Astartes as well. So the idea of my XIXth Legion consists of: Assault Company- Assault Marines, Destroyers, Dark Furys, Land Speeders, Apothecaries, Counsel and Praetor with Jump Packs. Heavy Assault Company- Deliverers, all suits of Terminators, Land Raiders Proteus and Spartans, and Characters in Terminator armor Siege Company- Breachers and Mk III or older armored models and Characters in older Mk armors with some exceptions Tactical Company- Mk VI models Tacticals, Support and Heavy support. Recon Company- Recon Marines, scouts, Mor Deythan Armored Company- Tanks As I said that is the idea. But now I have a new idea......Saturnine as Pale Nomads/ Dust Clad, MORE TERRAN RAVEN GUARD!!

Prophet has arrived.....but no time to look at him.

Prophet of Redemption was ordered with Armageddon Crusade book so should be here next week.

My plan for the crusade: Hexbreakers Vanguard Spearhead Lieutenant in Reiver Armour (Warlord)- paint started Librarian in Phobos Armour- paint started Lieutenant in Phobos Armour- primed Lieutenant with Combi-Weapon- built Eliminator Squad (3 man)- unbuilt Eliminator Squad (3 man)- need to get Incursor Squad (5 man)- unbuilt Infiltrator Squad (5 man)- primed Infiltrator Squad (5 man)- unbuilt Reiver Squad (5 man)- primed Scout Squad (5 man)- done Scout Squad (5 man)- done Suppressor Squad (3 man)- unbuilt

After this weekends games, Exorcists will be my go to for the crusade.

Some changes to @The_Oni_of_Hindsight's list and well it did not go well for me....final score was 3-1 or 4-1 Nemesis Dreadknight Geraint took wounds from the predator and decided to engage it with his guns and hammer....he almost did to it in melee but did kill it and Venerable Dreadnought Draper killed a Jakal squad by himself with his shooting and melee then was killed by Khorne Bezerkers and a Lord riding a Juggernaut. Brother- Captain, Chaplain and their terminators killed the Eightbound and then were killed by the Khorne Bezerkers. One of @The_Oni_of_Hindsight's old characters, Whirr, has returned but now counts as Khârn. Yeah Brother Captain was cleaved in 2 by Whirr. Now I own him a Grey Knight helm. Shooting saved vs Emperor's Children but no way I could survive a 1st turn charge.

Well I fought against Emperors Children and Won 6-2 but was tabled in turn 3. Venerable Dreadnought Draper with his new loadout was a killing machine tearing up infractors and Noise Marines and Nemesis Dreadknight Geraint did work killing a squad Noise marines and Lord Kakophonist and wiping the Flawless Blades off the table before dying to the Lord Exultant. Lucius killed Brother Chaplain De Molay before the Brotherhood Terminator squad killed him. Fun game but Grey Knights why overcosted

Well Armageddon Crusade book is on Preorder this weekend. So we shall see what army I will be playing, Grey Knights or Exorcists are leading the pack. right now

My main gang in Necromunda is Redemptionist, but I do have a bunch of Cawdor too Last 2 models are Hive Preacher and Rogue Doc But I did pick up these to go with Stig Shamblers, Redeemer, and Headsman Hired Guns I need to preorder The Prophet of the Redemption model too.

Well as it stands now My Slow Grow League will be my Grey Knights as they are most painted army and only ones I really like painting. I am really wanting to wait for the next Crusade to drop before we start the slow grow league.

So update.....MHA slow grow league did not start and of late, I have been focused on my Adepta Sororitas. When we return to the slow grow league, I will be playing Adepta Sororitas along with Ecclesiarch Forces, and Adeptus Arbites.

The Kymara sub-sector lies in the Western Fringe of the Ultima Segmentum and sits along the Malestrom. Such a thing has given it great prosperity and great danger, as such things are seen throughout the galaxy.” "Currently we have been unable to regain contact with one of our Imperial Mining Stations, Beta-43 b to Beta 47d on Praxia. Imperium forces only control four systems out of the eight within the sub-sector. The sub-sector capitol of Josufa, which is positioned in the center and has had a shaky foothold throughout the last century, but that could be lost.” "Reports have been flooding in for the past decade now on new dangers. The Xenos and Renegade threats have been growing in number and daring, moving out further and more aggressively from various locations. We are afraid one our worlds might become a xenos or renegade vile nest. Aid from several Adeptus Astartes Chapters has been requested in an attempt to assist in exterminating these xenos and renegade threats.” "The Adeptus Arbites Patrol know to be on Praxia is currently overdue to report in by 48 Terran Standard hours. The Sub-Sector Adeptus Arbites Precinct has filed several more complaints with the Administratum, protesting the lack of initiative on the sub-sector Governor's part to look further into the issue. The old legends about there being several technologically advanced xenos and renegades within the area continue to dissuade their desire to reach them. The local Ecclesiarch has already sent a report via channels to the Inquisition, requesting advice and help in this heretical matter.” "Much is happening beneath the surface events however, I can feel it. I can only hope that with your arrival that the Imperium of Man will emerge victorious...even through it is against training to entertain doubt, I feel worried. Things are happening within the sub-sector and for all I know, things will not be brighter on the other side."++END MESSAGE+++ "End Recorded message" "As you can see, this message is concerning, Watch Master. This message is was relayed from another Ordo. My assets and I are enroute to the Sub-sector as we speak but we are still a few weeks out. Multiple Inquisitors from other Ordos and their assets should arrive before us. This is multiple Ordos Operation. I need boots on ground, Immediately. Watch Master, activate Saber Team and assign Watch Captain Rojos as Saber Prime. On ground point of contact is the Order of the Martyred Lady Canoness Camile " "Aye, Inquisitor, Saber Team will be deployed soon." So Metal Head Armory is going to start playing kill team and her are the Kill Teams, I have personally. This not counting the ones I am going to build for my kids. Exorcist- Scout Squad TBD- Phobos Strike Team Arbites on Praxia- Exaction Squad Ordos Assets- Inquisitorial Agents with Scions Ordo Assets- Imperial Navy Breachers Ordo Assets- Tempestus Aquilions Order of The Martyred Lady- Novitiates and of course Deathwatch Kill Team Saber- Angels of Death but all DW Veterans Captain- Crimson Fist Assault Intercessor Sgt/ Plasma Pistol Chainsword- Dark Angel Elminator Sniper- Raptor with Stalker pattern boltgun Assault Intercessor Grenadier- Black Templar Assault Intercessor- Space Wolf Assault Intercessor- Blood Angel Heavy Intercessor Gunner- Imperial Fist with Infernus Bolter Intercessor/ Auto Bolt rifle- Ultramarine Intercessor/ Stalker Bolt Rifle- Raven guard Intercessor/ Bolt rifle- Exorcist Intercessor Gunner/ Auto Bolt Rifle- Iron Hands Intercessor/ Bolt Rifle- Salamander
