Eddtheman Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 So I've had some time on my hands recently and I decided to troll the WiP forums. Seeing all these people building up these massive forces have really gotten my creative juices flowing. Ive decided to expand my current space marine army. First a little about myself. Ive beenplaying since the tail end of 2nd edition and suffer from "new project" syndrome. I start these little side projects that I am never able to pan out or complete. These usually involve marines and sit in my closet in various degrees of completion. Hopefully showing it off on B&C will give me the motivation to finish my army My current army, the ice hawks, were started with the 5th edition marine book. here is what I want my finished army to look like Entire 1st company- mix of terminators and PA vets 2 Entire Battle Companies (1 Drop pod, 1 rhino) Scout auxilia (30-50 scouts) Whirlwind suppression force Linebreaker Squadron Land Raider armored column Adeptus Custodes support 2X thunderhawks for air support. I will be organizing everything in the next few days and will post updates when I can Comments and Criticism always welcome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191840-apocalyzing-my-force-ice-hawks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Wow, good luck there matey! You should check out my "Black Fists" thread, its an entire 1st Company Wip. Besides 10 Sternguard and 5 Vanguard, and heros the rest of the army will be made of plastic. Maybe you could use some of the ideas (and leave a comment or two) for your own 1st! Hehe, Good luck mate. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191840-apocalyzing-my-force-ice-hawks/#findComment-2276642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatman Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 When I *eventually* get a job, I'm hoping to make the entire Raven Guard 3rd, 8th, and 10th company. Thats in excess of: Shrike 2 generic captains 6 tactical squads 2 devistator squads 2 dreads 12 assault marine or bike squads 10+ scout squads Un-upgraded thats 5645 points and will cost about £802 :S Once you start talking chapter size forces it starts getting ridiculous Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191840-apocalyzing-my-force-ice-hawks/#findComment-2276961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddtheman Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 Oh I'm not planning on buying FW thundehawks, Im still in college (and very poor). These will both be scratchbuilt. I've got 1 finished except for detailing on the engines. If I can get a picture, I will post it, and maybe do a tutorial for the second 1.

Capt. Lysander Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Looking forward to the marines ;) You planning to make them Shrike's wing, just to make them more unique?
