Starks333 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I built this army with speed in mind...it turned out after a couple edits and modifications that I managed to plug in all my favourite units into a working army list; snipers, terminators, bikes, speeders and a land raider, Ive also had a thing for techy stuff so I spread that throughout the army. The table is a chaos renegade desert table basically, with ideas coming from a combination of star wars (tatooine), assasins creed and fallout. HQ Captain- 165pts Relic Blade, Space Marine Bike ELITES 5 Assault Terminators- 200pts Thunder Hammers, Storm Shields Techmarine- 90pts Power Weapon, Servo Harness TROOPS 5 Space Marine Bikes- 195pts Power Fist, Flamer Attack Bike w Multi Melta 5 Space Marine Bikes- 185pts Power Weapon, Flamer Attack Bike w Multi Melta 8 Snipers- 148pts Camo Cloaks, Missile Launcher 8 Snipers- 148pts Camo Cloaks, Missile Launcher FAST ATTACK Land Speeder Tornado- 70pts Multi Melta, Heavy Flamer Land Speeder Tornado- 70pts Multi Melta, Heavy Flamer 2 Land Speeder Typhoons- 180pts HEAVY SUPPORT Land Raider Redeemer- 250pts Multi Melta TOTAL: 1701pts Models: 33 Vehicles: 5 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151906-desert-scorpions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starks333 Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 he will be interesting...the concept i have for him is an interesting one, and he will be a show piece so that means extra time and effort im still debating how i want to do the desert bases right now Alex Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151906-desert-scorpions/#findComment-1770083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asmodeus' Swordhand Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 well, that wasn't really as bad as I'd expected. When I saw bad news I thought 'oh no' but it turns out that you are just making more cool things anyway ;) I can't wait to see some progress on the army.

ShinyRhino Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 im still unsure of where to obtain the rounded bike bases, or if im gonna have to build them myself (grrrr) i dont really want to fork out $40 for bases... These can be bought direct from GW. $4.50 US for a set of 5. Go to the main GW site, open the Paints & Tools bar, and select bases. Viola! No more paying $4 each from TheWarStore!

Metal Fingered Villain Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 This should be some good <DELETED BY THE INQUISITION>, looking forward to seeing where the master of the forge goes.
