Hi, long time lurker. I'm currently building and playing an emperor's children army - I've got about 2700 points painted, and about 500 more that I've built and have yet to paint. I've recently run into a bit of a wall painting, so I've turned my eye to what I might build. Recently, as I've been waiting for the bits for my second unit of noise marines to come (just got them today), I looked to what models I had unbuilt - which was basically the minis from my 2nd Dark Vengence box. Given that I already had a set painted up "as is" without conversions (for the most part) I decided to convert up the second box so that I didn't have any identical models (well, except for the bolter guy that comes twice in a box). Despite still having trouble getting decent pictures (one reason I haven't shared more here - my photos have been awful), I thought that I would take and share some pictures of my latest work. First is my converted hellbrute, here with his unconverted (mostly - I gave him a fist mounted heavy flamer) pal. And here he is on his own. Anyway, let me know what you think and I'll share some more soon.

I'm of the very firm belief that the Fabius Bile trilogy by Josh Reynolds (Primogenitor, Clonelord, and Manflayer) are amongst the very finest of works from the Black Library and I'm currently working on my Chaos Space Marine army based around some of the themes of Fabius Bile's 'Consortium' and the Emperor's Children legion. Essentially, my army isn't looking to represent the Consortium of the books but my own ragtag band of hedonists, misfits and deviants who have fallen into the orbit of Fabius Bile (or he has fallen into theirs). I love kitbashing and coming up with some bits of my own fluff so this is just as much an excuse to create lots of little characters as it is anything else, but, I need to get the hobby momentum going as there's lots to build and paint. My timing couldn't be much better as part way through the project, we have the new 10th Edition Codex Chaos Space Marines and the announcement that there's going to be an Index for the Emperor's Children! Can't wait! I'll use this post as a bit of an introduction one and something that I can come back to and amend to as a bit of a hub once more things actually get built and painted!

The video was released only a bit ago but the new Emps children look insane. I’d be down to start an army based off Lucius’s model alone.

I thought I'd share my Chaos army and various WIP things, hopefully to motivate myself to get some more painting done! I have a decent sized Iron Warriors army, as well as a goodly number of Thousand Sons, which I'll get pictures of later. My current projects are a start up Emperor's Children Warband, and a force of The Cleaved. The Cleaved: I made this Plague Marine years and years ago when I had a spare blob of Green Stuff. The armour was a test piece for the new foundations, its straight Dheneb with a heavy devlan wash. He got some nice armour scores, and some weeping joints I abandoned them for a very long time, until the release of the new codex, whereupon I made a couple of plasma gunners to come later. I also have 5 of these guys that will be geting the cleaved treatment. My very first tank, well over 10 years old with an awful splotchy (but thin) nurgle paint job, back when the mark of Nurgle gave your vehicle +1AV all round. Rather than give it to the Iron Warriors, I've honoured it's heritage and dedicated it to the cleaved. The marine on the back was originally an ultramarine, but the blue wouldnt look good with the colour scheme. Green, however would, and seeing as there will probably be a few new DA players soon...and also to annoy Skink a little. The Nurglings on top need some detailing, as well as a few other bits and bobs, but I consider it table worthy after a weekend's work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With the new codex, I jumped at the chance to finally get some Slaaneshi marines under my belt. Noise marines with an 80's hair metal vibe. I wanted a full Sonic blaster squad, buy only had one and the blastmaster, so time to make up some stuff: Dude doing a squealy blaster solo, and regular blaster dude. You cant quite see the detail, ut they have hides/skin GS'd onto their leg armour, and regular dude has GW barbed wire wrapped around his thigh. Blastmaster and DeathKorg. You cannot have a band without a synth, so this guy got made up. The idea is that the bolter fires, gets some funky rhythm attached to it as it goes along the barrel, then hits the opponent with some music that they've probably never heard of. Noise Champion: Since squad leaders cannot currently have blasters, and in the hope that they can someday, I made something in between a combi bolter and blaster, the backpack (from the classic NM) and belt amp can also double as a Doom Siren. Smile:

Since we've been getting offical previews of Emperor's Children model components and the faction is officially confirmed to be coming in 2025, is it time for Emperor's Children to get their own Subforum like the other Cult Marines have?

I used to have an old account on here around 10 years ago the email and password of which I've completely forgotten. I made a Project log for my EC back then which never actually progressed at all lol: And it seems that all the image links are dead too. I uploaded some of these to the Gallery so I won't fill the thread with them. Only a few were ever finished properly. The Chaos Lord who I recently rebased and gave a new claw arm. He was supposed to be an Abaddon proxy in 5th edition, I think. Detail on the green stuff and conversion work I did on him (glad i kept these pics): Completed models: WIP models (lots): These have all been living inside a drawer untouched for years. Maybe I'll finish them, maybe I won't. He comes, He goes...

You might say they're excessive.

Hi all. New to HH 2.0, played a small game or two of 1.0 but long-time 3rd+ed 40K player, so familiar with the basics, if not the new intricacies of HH 2.0 like reactions, the various weapons, etc I love the pre-/early-Heresy EC look, the purple and gold. Don't care too much for the look of stuff later. I think my traitor army will be DG, but everyone should have a traitor and a loyalist army right? At least one of each. So I started looking at doing EC as loyalists, playing with lists and ideas. The basic concept is a loyalist group that presumably was off far away when Istvaan went down, so weren't part of the corruption or culling. Find out about rebellion, are horrified, vow to make the traitors, especially the turncoat EC, pay. So, they will fight dirty, bringing in things like destroyers, snipers, etc. and riskier weapons like plasma as well as the more traditional duels. Rules-wise, maybe AL would be a better fit for the them, but...purple and gold, and the initiative boost could be fun. I figure the special units, including Phoenix Guard, Palantines probably closer to Fulgrim/much more likely to be corrupted/purged, so I avoided those. I started as a Pride of the Legion list, but didn't want that many terminators and Veterans get expensive, so tweaked more to just the Maru Skara angle, a very mobile strike force, focusing on finding and quickly ripping out traitors, especially leaders.

Edit: Now available. A sign of things to come? TLDR Lucius and Noise Marines won't be in Codex: CSM, but will be in their own Index. Lucius has to be your Warlord to run an Emperor's Children force.

So it looks like there will be a new set of 30k Transfers coming soon. The following is up on the FW site, but clicking on it goes to a dead page - so I can only assume someone jumped the gun on putting this picture and link up. Dark Angel, White Scar and Emperors Children transfers coming soon...

Ladies and Gentlemen. The time is almost upon us. The finale of the very damn good Fabius Bile trilogy that Josh Reynolds has blessed us with - gracefully undoing the decades of gore-porn that followed Fabius' exploits around like a bad, slightly chlorinated smell Here's a few things I managed to dig up from Josh's Tumblr and a few other places. I don't know if they have been posted before, and I like to believe there isn't already a Manflayer thread These comments seem to be small quirky splinters based on what Reynolds had written up to that point, and with him later declaring that he would need to cut out about a third of the book some of these might not appear in the final version when we get it Otherwise, it seems this book builds towards the Battle of Who are your favourite characters from the series already? Besides Bill, I really liked Alkenex from Clonelord because he reminded me of a diligent rank-and-file officer... serving in a corrupted, shattered Legion of hedonists, but still retaining some of that trademark discipline and hierarchical deference that the III Legion were renowned for. I also declare Savona as the Queen of Love and Beauty of all Black Library females

__________________________ It was him. There was no denying the ache in his two hearts. The aura of belonging that he felt just from being in his presence. Even as the figure tore into the assembled warbands who sought to end The Spider, Lucian could see his fellow Emperors Children realizing the truth of their foe. It was no deamon, no false hood, no half twisted monstrosity. It was their Father, as pure and whole as he was the day he embraced his 300 remaining sons on Terra. It was Fulgrim. He leveled his plasma pistol towards one The Spider, for if Fulgrim had truly returned then Bile's corrupting influence had to be removed lest the Primarch of the third fall to madness once more. He breathed deep... blinked once... and he was gone. The Spider had disappeared, along with their genesire and the necron who had appeared moments earlier. His hearts ached, and he let loose a howl of anguish as he fired his pistols into one of the wounded so called "New Men" before recalling his small force of raptors. This called for a new hunt, one of such importance old grudges would need to be set aside. For their father was out there, whole and untainted, ready to return the legion to it's true glory. The Phoenician Court would assemble. __________________________ And so begins my path down the road of chaos and Slaanesh. As you can probably guess this P&M Blog will be entirely 3D printer based, with each model in this army being designed, modeled, printed and painted by me! This ones going to be a long haul as the goal will be a 6,000 point force of Emperors Children and their attendant Renegades and Heretics with a smattering of Adeptus Titanicus, Battlefleet Gothic and Epic thrown in to spice things up! As we go we shall follow the Moriat Lucian as he gathers his allies and reforms a force that once pledged to restore their Gene Lords sanity. Expect weekly updates and insights into the character of almost every member of the warband as we go. Below are the current cast of mentioned Characters The Reborn Phoenician, The perfect Clone Moriat Lucian, Lord of The Eagles Talons Raptor Host The Eagles Talons, Splinter Warband of The Emperors Children The Phoenician Court, Pic taken by Legion Remembrancer aprox m37.82

Second Battle of Nuceria, XIII Legion archival log _________________ The destruction unleashed by the advent of Lorgar’s Ruinstorm was without precedent during the apocalyptic wars of the Horus Heresy. Until the war reached the shores of Sol, no other event inflicted as much sheer chaos or systemic disruption across the Imperium. Whole systems were lost to Imperial records, never to be heard from again, and on hundreds of worlds the skies split apart as the nightmarish denizens of the Immaterium poured forth from the roiling, seething tides of unreality now isolating the eastern domains of the Imperium. For those who populated the Five Hundred Worlds, the nascent empire-within-an-empire carved by honoured Guilliman and the XIII Legion, the infamy and treachery of the Word Bearers and World Eaters Legions was all too clear; in this darkest hour the state of the Imperium-that-Was – and the fate of the Throneworld itself – was unclear. Many in the highest echelons of the Five Hundred Worlds and its protectors believed the Imperium to have been irrevocably sundered. During the fateful first weeks of the Ruinstorm’s creation, the XIII Legion counterattack across the Five Hundred Worlds foundered and ground to a halt. Those planets not flensed of life by Angron’s hounds or sacrificed to malevolent powers were where the XIII Legion focussed their efforts of reconquista. Celerax Magna, a densely populated garden world on the western edge of the Five Hundred Worlds, became the stage for a brief but particularly brutal war in the weeks following the advent of the Ruinstorm. Before the Heresy, Celerax Magna had been a navigatory terminus for Imperial fleets and frequently housed members of the Navis Nobilite. Left relatively untouched by the Traitor advance, the survivors of the Navigator houses fleeing the carnage wracking the Five Hundred Worlds sequestered themselves in Celerax Magna’s teeming utopian cities, hoping to avoid the worst of the wars tearing apart Guilliman’s empire. Such a peaceful dream was as naive as it was false. As the Ruinstorm worsened, XIII Legion reserves drawn from censuria companies and VII Legion survivors of the Phall debacle spearheaded a Loyalist force from several Legions intended to secure the terminus, liberate any Navigators that could be located and with their aid forge a safe passage through the Ruinstorm, if one could be found. It was not to be so. The Traitor Legions arrived in force mere hours after the Loyalist vanguard arrived on Celerax Magna, alerted to the presence of the Navigators by powers dark and nefarious. Knowing that they could not count on reinforcement, and that to fail now would be to doom Imperial efforts to escape the Ruinstorm, the vengeful Loyalists readied themselves for a conflict that would be utterly without respite or quarter. The resulting war lasted for seven days without pause and saw the deaths of more than twelve billion souls. _________________________________ For Hatred’s Sake is a narrative doubles event made for the Age of Darkness supplement for the Warhammer 40,000 (7th edition) ruleset, with myself (BrotherCaptainArkhan) as author. In this event, players form teams of two to take on opposing teams battling for the fate of Celerax Magna. During the chaos and confusion of the Ruinstorm, the members of many Legions from both Loyalist and Traitor allegiances arrived in the domain of the Five Hundred Worlds, some by chance, some by darker design. Teams will face off across three themed scenarios, attempting to decapitate rival forces, capture valuable information that will enable them to locate the Navigator survivors who may be critical to the war effort, and finally enact their escape. This log will document the weekly buildup to the event itself, with army pictures, lore, force dispositions, themed scenarios and finally battle reports detailing the final hours of the garden world Celerax Magna, and the fate of the warriors fighting over it. _________________________________ Belligerents Loyalist force disposition VI Legion Pale Hunters VII Legion Mountainfire Company XI Legion Task Force Cornelius XIII Legion The Black One Hundred [Legion identifier missing] Strike Force Black Mamba [Legion identifier missing] First Sphere _________________ Traitor force disposition III Legion Third Company Elite VIII Legion Pythius Strike Force VIII Legion The Painted Exiles XIV Legion Death Guard XVI Legion Sons of Horus V Legion White Scars _________________ Next update: Event Rules

With the total eclipse of the sun possibly foretelling of the end of humanity, why not sit back and watch a brand new Glacial Geek Battle Report?! https://youtu.be/pVmycy1iopI This week my Dark Angels take on the Emperor's Children! The vile Emperor's Children had been operating out of this planet for a while now. The human populous had been enslaved and subjected to their depraved whims. On top of all this, a band of the Fallen had been cooperating with the Emperor's Children and operating out of this planet as well. With this in mind, the Dark Angels decided that the people on this planet needed liberation ... And obviously a debriefing. Will the Unforgiven free the people of this planet and get the information they want, or will the Emperor's Children repel the assault and continue to reign over this planet? Watch and find out!
