Rellik Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Has anyone ever customised a Chaplain to have a sweet looking two handed Crozius? And if so do you think this would increase th strength of his attacks at all? I was just wondering because I think a Chaplain with jump pack and two handed Crozius leading my death company would look bad ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somar Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 it probably would look very cool, but it still only counts as a regular crozius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rellik Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 That's what I thought but I figured I'd give it a shot. Oh well he'll still look awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harc_Staven Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I remember seeing someone on B&C who was making a successor chapter for the BA, he made his High Chaplan also his Chapter Master and attached his crozius to the end of a long pike similar to a halberd, but i think it still has the same attack strength, its already one of the strongest CC weapons you can field anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracture Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Counts as a powerfist. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Chaplains can have Power Fists in exchange for their Bolt Pistol. So you can use it the same way Logan Grimnar uses his Axe. Swing it one handed as a Power Weapon, or Two Handed as a Power Fist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fropopo Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Dunno if this is the right place to put my question, but i've checked the rulebook several times and still can't find it. Do two-handed weapons give +1 strenght? If so... where is it stated? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somar Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 it would be nice though, specially considering the glaive encarmine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultramarcos Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Yes...Astorath the Grim....it's a two handed axe but....yet it looks cool. Best mini in the new collection IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rellik Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 yeah it's a two handed axe that strikes with stregth 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barakiel Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Dark Angel Interrogator-Cahplain Barakiel with his Two-Handed Crozius. Thats my Version of "Count as Powerfist"-Crozius. Build from a Grey Knights Terminator Weapon and some part from Confrontation... http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff9/Lord_Zymran/Cnv0002.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProteanSun Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Hands down count him as Astorath. It is so close to what you are looking to do, but it's a legal character. It's really a pain trying to design your own characters as GW spends a lot of time and resources playtesting and balancing characters. Unless you are playing a VERY friendly game I would never design my own character rules. It just keeps hassles to a minimum. Plus, Astorath is already a freaking BEAST.

wookielips Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 the no-2h'ed rule is one of the main things about seth that is awesome. its not a power-weapon, but s9 on the charge with FC is just insane. insta-kill almost anything you charge that fails armor saves is niiiiiiice. course, would be nice if seth had a PW....... and a JP........ and wargear options :eyeroll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Seth does not get S9 on the charge. His attacks are always resolved at S8. Furious Charge would only make his base Strength 5, not change the strength of his Chainsword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK BLΠFLY Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 For a simple conversion the Sanguinary Guard box has a two handed axe gripped in both hands. Simply snip off the axe head and attach a bit to properly represent the Crozius Arcanum. 0b :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roachboy Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I was inspired by this thread to build a 2 handed crozius... I used the DC thunder hammer and replaced the top with the Sanguinary guard banner top... I think it looks sweet (if i say so myself) Will try and post pics when i can find my camera... edit: I intend to do use it as samanagol suggested, and treat it as both powerfist and power weapon (logan style) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHarrower Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I did a conversion on the Legion of Damned Sergeant and made him my Chaplain. The Crozius I took from another Chaplain model is really long and could be considered two handed. I didn't like it at first, but now I think it's pretty cool. Here's a pic. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_MYsIuqeU2Ic/TCLvxU4IgII/AAAAAAAAAPs/dzYTnmEvTKw/s1600/DCandChaplain.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyKilledOffTycho? Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 To TheHarrower, is that the Crozius from the 2nd ed BA Chaplain? That thing is massive. I know because I cut mine off prior to the new Codex coming out (as part of a planned Chaos Chaplain conversion, I know, I know....) and then when I saw the new DC rules I promptly glued it back on, as I didn't want to have to buy another Chaplain on foot model. On a related note, the Space Wolves box has a great two-handed Power Axe which would make a really good Crozius. In fact there's even some extra bitz in that pack that look like Crozius heads so you could do some good things with that box alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was a BA specific Chaplain that I took it from, but it was definitely an older model. I'll see if I can dig it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Kovash Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Another suggestion, you could use the thunder hammer from the DC box, and top it off with a crozius bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I've always wanted to do a chaplain based of the current PF one but remove his arms and have him holding a crozius across his body similar to the WFB warrior priest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphestus Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I unfortunately don't have a pic on me at work BUT.. I have done the same thing - in an effort to give one of my chaps the ability to swing it as a power fist or a one handed weapon (depending on how I built my list that day). I used the two handed axe bits from the sanguinary guard and clipped off the end and replaced it with the winged grail bit that is supposed to go on the sanguinary guard banner pole. I put a death mask helmet at the top of the banner pole instead. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHarrower Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 To TheHarrower, is that the Crozius from the 2nd ed BA Chaplain? Looks like it is. This dude is from 2nd Ed, right? http://www.btinternet.com/~bobby.basnett/Images/CHAPLAIN.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
