Bjorn the Fell-Handed

That is a very very nice model :D

I am going to try and make one..... when will those Blitz pack with the wolf skins on them come out? they where in WD, but not on GW site....

 

Oh also, when taking Bjorn, would it be good to take another dread or two with him?

Bjorn +2 vendreads and an Ironpriest seems like a really cool "March of the Ancients" force to play now and again. No WGPLs though, so I suppose youd want to take the "Saga of Majesty" on them for the leadership rerolls on your GHs. And probly a fenrisian wolf pack or two for the flanks to use as meat shields or pinning units....

 

Yeah, that could work.

Blood feud is not in the new codex...

 

And the feud is much more intense than sibling rivalry. Jonson actually ran Russ through the chest with lion sword, putting him into the SM coma (can't remeber the name for it off the top of my head) Russ awoke a month later with no DAngels to be found. It took swallowing a lot of pride to prevent the whole thing from breaking into open war. Too this day there are still unreported SW on DA engagments.

I dont generally get inolved in these disputes but Ive noticed everything Leman of the Russ is saying is straight out of the 3rd ed dex (the one with the dead orc onthe cover).

 

On topic: Beautiful Bjorn brother keep up the good work and I too am waiting for those termies.

The problem is that GW keeps changing their fluff I stick with both 2nd Ed codexs for my fluff and whilst the SW codex indicates that Johnson stabbed Russ, The AoD Codex and subsequent DA Codexs put it down to a fist fight. Russ reaslised the humor of the situation whereas Johnson did not and laid russ out whilst his guard was down. When Russ awoke the DA had already fled.

However, the 2nd Ed Wolves codex theorises that Russ dissappeared into the eye of terra whilst searching for is old friend and rival Lion' El'Johnson.

 

Whatever your opinion on the matter I and my long time SW buddie Thorgrim Blackwolf have always agreed that the DA and SW are great allies (I still swore that DA were best and he swoare that SW were best)

 

Well i'm now what you'd call and Angel Wolf if you will and personnally I love both chapters as they have the best histroy of any astartes IMHO.

 

Either way my DA and SW will stand side by side against the enemies of the Emperor!!

Umm... what does blood feud have to do with anything I wrote?

 

And since when are there unreported SW/DA engagements?

 

And for the record, the blow Johnson gave russ wasnt fatal, and the two left on good terms- not under blood feud.

The two stories are not in conflict- the fist fight happened during the heresy, while the stabbing occurred after they were late for the battle of terra. Russ was ashamed and so let his brother stab him, Johnson was angry enough to do it, but not stupid/angry enough to finish the job on his own brother.

Truth. (Passes out the Ale)

 

I dunno, I believe the Dark Angels are traitors who are working against the Empires interest. But it's only the highest ranks that know this, so I always explain to friends who are curious about the game that there were 10 legions that fell into heresy and 7 that stayed loyal ;-)

 

Amusingly, my friend who plays DA cheerfully agrees to that and fully expect this to be revealed some day when the 40k story moves a bit on...

 

On topic:

That is a totally majestic Dreadnought... I wish I could paint like that...

Hopefully it will leave many Xenos and traitors dead on the field of battle...
