Welcome to the start of a project I’ve been brewing for the past 3 years in the back of my mind. This project is an attempt to bring the Visage of the Visions of Heresy 1st Legion to the tabletop. Above is my first proof of concept images, a decade ago when I first joined the Bolter and Chainsword I was an avid Horus Heresy Fan and was always rushing any ideas I had without taking time to really indulge my creativity, this time after a massive Hiatus I decided to look back on my fondest memories of the hobby and bring something from my childhood into the community, my beloved First Legion and Sons of the Lion. I welcome you to join me on this adventure of recreating a beloved army and concept of the angels of Death and the emperors first. We will be diving into Abrahamic lore and naming conventions and going to be setting many rules for the project in order to expand my potential and force me to learn new skills. Till the next update…

A while back I experimented with some new Space Marine paint schemes and found one I liked. I just was happy with the one I had originally chosen. I finally let loose the arrow to land where it may. Now at this point I have a conundrum. Is the red bolter housing too busy; should I go with a more neutral off-black? The squad and chapter markings are going to be red, if that makes a difference.

Good evening I've been working on a mission pack for a little while now that can be used for standalone play. It has a few quirks and is a set of quite simple but thematic missions for casual play. This is just the first of many packs I'll be making. The bones are 3ed missions with some tweaking to take advantage of 2,0 special rules Direct Link https://archive.org/details/standard-missions-v-1_202409 Embed in the post ( Hopefully!) Please let me know what you think! Standard missions v1.pdf

Since we seems to lake a thread about discussing how to make our traitor members of Loyalist Legions or loyalists members of Traitor Legions. There are lots of other threads where the discussion have appeared but more as a derailing or side discussions. So here we have a thread for explicit talking about how to make you Traitor Ultramarines stand out from their Loyalist brothers, or your Loyalist Night Lords form their traitors and cowards kin on the other side. And how to explain their existance. With that said, here are links to some of the threads where this discussion have happened before: Will poste some of the thoughts and suggestions from those threads here later.

Allo Continuing on with the theme of my fiscal irresponsibility behold the siege breaker I have built. I don't run siege breakers and decided to build this on a whim. Unfortunately for me the parts needed included one arm from the Sons of horus weapon set. I don't play Sons of horus ended up buying the pack for one bit. He do be handsome tho I also received all the bases I need for my solar aux infantry

Allo It is well known and spoken of amongst the clouds above that I am not a smart man Many have described me as "upright" and "lacking in brain wrinkles" Perhaps as of a result of this I decided to buy into the solar aux and also buy fancy bases Luckily I am too empty thought to have worked out how much this will cost in the long wrong but considering there's 100 infantry I expect its going to be a bad time

Hello fellow Frater, I've been away from these hallowed halls for a while but following the Horus Heresy 2.0 release, I'm now more firmly in love with our hobby than I think I ever have been. I've been building a Blood Angels force for years but have decided to dabble with some more heretical marines for my latest project. LUPERCAL! For the Warmaster. I've always liked the 40k Abaddon model but never had a reason to get it until now. I'm in the process of trying to make my version of a 30k Abaddon.

While work on painting continues a pace I've cast my mind to write some fluff for my grand battalion *Ahem* The 369th Grand Battalion is an amalgamation of the 36th Infantry battalion and the 9th Armoured following the heavy losses they sustained following Istvaan. The 36th operated under the command of Warsmith Justinian a terran veteran who upon the fields of Istvaan hesitated to give the command to fire on the loyalists. The Warsmith Justinian would be cut down for his hesitation by the junior captain Nachtfel. This slaying would spark an immediate conflict within the battalion as warriors turned on each other even as the battle around them raged. For Nachtfels brutal suppression of those whose loyalty within the battalion was in question he would be raised to the rank of warsmith and granted its command. During the battle of Phall the battalion would launch boarding attacks against several imperial fist ships. These assaults would see the back of the battalion broken with massive losses of material and men. The 9th was a freshly raised armoured battalion comprised solely of Olympian recruits. They're first combat deployment was the fields of Istvaan where they were used as an expendable Hammer. An early counter attack upon the force would lead to the death of its commanding officer and a rout within the force. During their panicked attempt to break through a rapidly encircling loyalist force they would lose the majority of their vehicles. For their complete failure upon the battlefield fresh equipment would be withheld from them and they would find their force continually being whittled down over time. Upon the eve of Tallarns invasion the two broken forces would be merged into one and re designated as a mechanised shock force. Legion inductiis would replenish its ranks and new vehicles assigned to it. Warmsith Nachtfel a now rising star within the Legion would use this influx of new material to further arm his veteran core.

Morning, I have recently been having a big push to add to my on going Sons of Horus collection. Mostly posting on IG/Twitter/FB etc and realised I missed the reading through and creating threads on forums. hence me signing up and starting one here! Anyway on to the good stuff! Ive always felt super drawn to the Sons of Horus, not only for the sea green scheme but also the fall to chaos in the background. Since the release of the age of darkness box I’ve jumped in to heresy as a whole, painting and gaming. (Fingers crossed this works and aren’t too big) I’ve attached some pictures of the stuff I’ve already painted in my collection over the last couple of years. Going forward I’ll hopefully add more wip and finished things as I do them. I’ll add some more of the stuff I’ve done as I go, rather than spam this thread with images. any questions at all fire away and I’ll get back. Onto my kitbashed master of signals now which is the last picture uploaded! cheers

Hi there! Over the past year Ive been trying to build a casual and thematic IF list with the templar assault ROW. Unfortunately, it doesnt seem like many people use this one or build a list around it, so Ive been kind of piecing it together without much advise. Id Like to hear your thoughts on the current list, and the more ideal competitive version of it. Ive only every played other peoples tryhard lists before, so Im not really sure how this fairs against an average army. Any advice would be appreciated, and if I have some rules wrong please let me know. Here are my personal restrictions: -no recon marines/scouts -no phalanx warders - set late siege of Terra around warhawk. This is the current list, and comprises of the models I have so far: The Idea for this list is to have dorn and huscarls in spartan, Sigi and some templar in proteus, and the other templar with the preator in deepstrike. Tacs grab objectives while dreads cover supporting fire for dorn and sigi to move up the board and take on elite units, once positioning is ok the other deepstrike squad will come in and flank some power armour like a heavy support squad or something. Templars also have line for objectives. Dorn and his pals take on the biggest threat, while sigi challenges the second highest threat. Tanks do damage to other vehicles/dreads or teminators. Templars should also have melta bombs to deal with any in the backlines LA - VII: Imperial Fists - Imperial Fists 3.5k - [3500Pts] ## Crusade Force Organisation Chart [3500Pts] ### Expanded Army Lists Expanded Army List Profiles:: Legacy Units On, Exemplary Units On ### Allegiance: Allegiance: Loyalist VII: Imperial Fists ### Rite of War: Rite of War: Templar Assault (IF) ### HQ: [385Pts] Praetor, Tartaros [155Pts]: Krak Grenades, Artificer Armour, Frag Grenades • Legion Tartaros Praetor [155Pts]: Vigil Storm Shield, Minor Combi-Weapon - Flamer, Magna Combi-Weapon - Disintegrator, Power Sword, Paragon Blade, Teleport Strike, Master of the Legion, Tartaros Terminator Armour Sigismund [230Pts]: Krak Grenades, Artificer Armour, Frag Grenades, Krak Grenades, Iron Halo, Frag Grenades, Artificer Armour, Master of the Legion, The Black Sword, Master-crafted bolt pistol • Sigismund ### Elites: [230Pts] Contemptor Dreadnought Talon [230Pts] • Contemptor Dreadnought [230Pts]: Havoc Launcher, Iliastus Assault Cannon, Gravis Power Fist with in-built ranged weapon, Gravis Lascannon, Atomantic Deflector ### Troops: [890Pts] Tactical Squad [220Pts]: Krak Grenades, Frag Grenades, Power Armour • 19x Legionaries (collective) [190Pts]: Bolter, Bolt Pistol • Legion Tactical Sergeant [20Pts]: Artificer Armour, Meltabombs, Bolter, Bolt Pistol Templar Brethren [335Pts]: Meltabombs, 9x Combat Shield, Krak Grenades, Frag Grenades, Artificer Armour, Power Sword, Bolt Pistol • 9x Brethren [225Pts] • Champion [17Pts]: Combat Shield, Solarite Power Gauntlet, Archaeotech Pistol Templar Brethren [335Pts]: Meltabombs, 9x Combat Shield, Krak Grenades, Frag Grenades, Artificer Armour, Power Sword, Bolt Pistol • 9x Brethren [225Pts] • Champion [17Pts]: Combat Shield, Solarite Power Gauntlet, Archaeotech Pistol ### Heavy Support: [995Pts] Land Raider Proteus Carrier Squadron [240Pts]: Land Raider Proteus Carrier, Searchlights, Twin-linked Lascannon, Legiones Astartes (X), 2x Sponson Mounted Gravis Lascannon, Smoke Launchers Land Raider Spartan [425Pts]: Land Raider Spartan, Multi-Melta, Searchlights, Flare Shield, Hull (Front) Mounted Twin-linked Heavy Bolter, 2x Lascannon Array, Legiones Astartes (X), Smoke Launchers Leviathan Dreadnought Talon [330Pts] • Leviathan [330Pts]: 2x Iliastus Assault Cannons, 2x Iliastus Assault Cannon, Leviathan Siege Claw, Leviathan Siege Claw, Phosphex Discharger, Atomantic Deflector ### Primarch: [1000Pts] Rogal Dorn [1000Pts]: Krak Grenades, Artificer Armour, Frag Grenades, Huscarl Squad, Master of the Legion, Frag Grenades, Warlord, The Voice of Terra, The Auric Armour, Storm's Teeth • Rogal Dorn I havent gotten to fully test this list, but I have the feeling that an army of thunderhamer termies with a chaplain and other elite termies would wipe these guys out, so I made some revisions.

They ride in proteus tanks to get them from a to b safely, and cap objectives/kill infantry. preator and regular terminators deepstrike wherever is needed to cause pressure and do big damage, while contemptor helps where it can. Deredo adds long range support and anti air. Sigi and his huscarls move up slowly in cover to challenge the hq. Is this list a better idea?

There are varying degrees of experience in the Horus Heresy community but most of all we want to recruit others, so I'm going to start a series of discussions and encourage others to do so that focus on the more mundane questions to the veterans amongst you. The intent behind this is to build a foundation of knowledge for people to draw from and attract others to a friendly and informative guide from fellows from within the community. Starting with the pride of a non-Primarch Legion force and the character and beatstick, let's talk about the Praetor. Questions we can answer - what weapons to give a Praetor, what armour (i.e. what type) and who to run him with? How does this differ from Legion to Legion, or army build to army build, Rites of War included? Please share your thoughts, including your experiences or just your themed preferences if you like. There's room for all sorts here!

"For six days we saw the signs: lights in the skies, forms of winged beings, fire burning. Then the seventh day they came down as angels. All those who opposed them were silent or death. We did not simply surrender, we started worshipping them. Then they lifted the veil from our eyes and patiently thought us the difference between faith, that requires no god and makes you stronger, and superstition, that makes you weak: all so that no one could do us the same thing they have done. Such sweet paradox" Constantia Meville, Philosopher an Iterator of the Imperial Truth This post will be edited as I add some more details and decide more stuff/number/names etc. This is, after all, a Work in Progress. The Origin I have wanted to do a Legion since long ago. I have both Calth and Prospero boxes, plus some Ryza Lascannon I brought in my last visit to Warhammer World in...2017...(writing about this makes me think I had the idea of doing some 30k for more time that I thought!). Then 3 years ago I brought Sanguinius, finally deciding to go for the IX. I started 40k as a Tyranid and even when I started chaos I choose Slaanesh and noise weapons, more than Fulgrim and Emperor's Children, so I had no favorite Legion/Primarch, liking all as an "external" viewer. Finally I chose Love, and went for my wife's favorite. The more I dig in the background of the IX, the more I realize that, once again, Love was the right choice. The Postulates I usually go full GW in my projects, avoiding even 3rd party bits. This time it is not the case. 3D printed parts were a necessity this time, for economic reason and also creative freedom issues. Simply put I finally started this project for real because of that and the fact that I suddenly found a local community, even if a bit dysfunctional. And I ended up using 3d printed stuff a lot more that expected for the great number of Assault Marines I decided to use. I expected to use Calth marines in mk4+Jump Packs and assault hands, but boys, those legs are static. I briefly considered Truescale, but it would have been a lot of hassle and I wanted to use parts of some old marines kits and fully enjoy their compatibility. But I also decided for the characters to be sometimes bigger. That is accurate to the lore, that describes marines with quite variated heights, sometimes even "Primarch-like", cool to see and convenient in game! As every Blood Angels player knows, there are no rules for Sanguinary Guard in 30k. I actually liked this fact as for my force I assumed the all the QG Charachters with Jump Packs to be Sanguinary Guards. I converted 5 of them to double as a command unit, if needed (Then I noticed I only needed 3, but that's fine. That's all for now, I will create some placeholders and put some WIP photos out

Hey all - Starting a new thread (my first time doing so!) for a community project that launched over on the HH: Age of Darkness Discord Partner Server whilst B&C was down... Liber Panoptica was born of a desire by a team from the HH: Age of Darkness Discord Partner Server to ensure that nothing and nobody was left behind with the release of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy (also known as HH2.0). Whilst in development, we referred to it as Operation: Retrograde - and this name stuck even on release. Within this document you will find the rules and lore to add all units to HH2.0 that were omitted from the official publications, as well as a full community FAQ and more, including a few new things you won't have seen before... The first version of this is just the beginning of our plans, though - so check back regularly as we'll update it in response to feedback, as well as adding new units and more as we go. The Liber Panoptica can be obtained here: https://codewalrus.gumroad.com/l/LiberPanoptica Any feedback you do have can be provided to us directly via the HH: Age of Darkness Discord: https://discord.gg/HH-Age-of-Darkness I hope you all enjoy this work! Please feel free to provide any thoughts you have to me directly :)
