Antman677 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Hi all, the topic pretty much says it all... im building a pre-heresy deathwing army and i am using the chaos termies as base minis. i took off the chaos stars but now im wondering if i should take off all the arrows too? some say that the arrows are chaos and others say that they are from the pre-heresy era. I looked in the horus heresy artbook and some marines have arrows but they were usually word bearers...so yeah im leaning towards them being chaos...but i wanted to check in with you guys... anyone can help me out here?

Patrick O))) Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I don't know for certain, but I think you'd be safer removing them all. Arrows may be pre-heresy, but at the end of the day you want pre-heresy Dark Angels, so you'll want to model them with loads of DA specific iconography, I'd have thought Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147439-arrows-on-armor-chaos-or-pre-heresy/#findComment-1709938 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruff Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 you can always just cut off the arrow bits and extend the straight bit down so it's one continuous line.

lord_bunny Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 chaos. lightning is pre-heresy... some arrows could simply look ornate though, it depends where they are.

Mal Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Yes, 3 lightning bolts on the greaves starting mid front point by the foot and spreading up and out, also lightning bolts on chest plate and shoulder guard make up Mk1 Thunder Armour. Although by the time the heresy came around they were pretty much out of commision as even by Mk3 standards they were next to useless. Heresy (pre to post) is Mk's 4-6 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147439-arrows-on-armor-chaos-or-pre-heresy/#findComment-1710224 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antman677 Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 you can always just cut off the arrow bits and extend the straight bit down so it's one continuous line. great idea... thanks all...i guess its more brown stuffing to get rid of arrows for me...
