Irresistible Force Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Right, I've painted a few test models in the colours of both chapters but cant decide which Im going to press ahead with. Opinions would be appreciated! http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv258/wallumc1/DSCF2040.jpg http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv258/wallumc1/DSCF2043.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starblayde Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I'm also torn (a fan of IFs, but I'm on a very pre-Heresy vibe in regard to the traitor chapters atm). Looks like quality paint jobs on both counts. Imperial Fists are instantly recognisable, while you'd possibly have to explain the Pre-HH Iron Warriors every time someone not in the know saw them.

Verythrax Draconis Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Since you can pull that yellow, go for the IFs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seneschal of the Seventh Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I'd also go with the Fists (though I'm a bit biased ;) ). But on a serious note, while the Imperial Fists are instantly recognized by almost everyone, you'll be lucky to ever see another Fists player in your life outside of Games Days and such. For me, that was a huge selling point - not only are your models immediately recognized as Fists, but soon, you become "the Fists Player" in your region. It's like playing Ultramarines without the Ultrahate, but yellow :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 'Walls fail, Fists do not!' Sorry, got a bit carried away there...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Morenze Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Time to play the Devil's advocate. Do Iron Warriors. You know it makes sense. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octavulg Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Both. Seriously. It'd be so awesome. Failing that, Fists. Because your IW are OK, but those Fists are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Seconded. Do both, fighting together in some long forgotten joint action that neither side is keen to remember. Maybe you could set it up as the beginnings of the schism that boiled over upon Dorn's assignment of the defence of the imperial palace on Earth. Pre-heresy obviously.

Octavulg Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 You can have them fight each other, too. Very flexible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosedragon Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Pre-heresy Iron Warriors all the way. Iron Within, Iron Without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 I agree with AlexCrute and Octavulg ;) It would be quite something :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Gaius Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Imperial Fists all the way :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slayer138 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Fists! fists very obviously it must be imperial fists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulkan454 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Fists because they are very iconic and just epic. Failing that go for Salamanders (you know you want to :)) Good Luck Vulkan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ufthak Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I'm a Pre-Heresy Imperial Fists player, so I should be expected to urge you to do Fists...but in fact, I have NEVER seen an Iron Warriors Pre-Heresy force...so do Iron Warriors! (Or both!) :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Vreith Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 my DIY looks very close to the warriors, but they will never betray dorn! or they could be a rogue gene seed of the iron's :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlâdvar The Destroyer Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ur DIY colour scheme looks cool (add some chevrons too), maybe have a different icon maybe? also wot u gonna call it? i would have said Iron fists, but theres aready a chapter called that... maybe Iron Templars or Iron Claws?

cunvikted Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I have to agree w/ ufthak, as a CSM player, I like looking at all the pre-Heresy armies people make, and the one I haven't seen is Iron Warrior, you might be the only fists player in your area, but you'll be the first IW I'd ever see...if you go IW i'd like to see the WIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
