Lord_Starscream Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 So, let me start by saying most of my Word Bearers models are exceptionally old. So, I've decided to slowly rebuild them, even if I openly refuse to use them until new rules are released. Squads are being built in such a way that weapons options have not been applied, and I'm leaving room for new models in each unit that could carry better hth weaponry. Now then... Calth. Calth, the place of disgrace. The place where the Legion failed. It failed to serve the will of the Primarch and the Dark Gods. They were shamed by the forces of the heretics, the Ultramarines. Whole planets died under the strength of the Word Bearers assault, but it did not matter, Calth still lived, the Sons of Guilliman still yet lived, and not only that, had driven them back. It was their dishonor, their disgrace. More Word Bearers had fought under the banner of Kor Pharon then at any other point. Whole hosts of daemons had arrived to assist in their dark assault, it all seemed set to be a slaughter. Instead, it turned into a war, a war which despite heavy losses being taken by both sides, the Word Bearers lost. And now they were driven back... back further, and further towards a haven, a home to the gods... to what was called the Maelstrom. Only one figure did not know this, for his death had found him on Calth. A final end, a righteous end, at the hands of the enemies of the Primarch. He died for the Dark Gods, and he'd felt himself slip into the warp. He expected oblivion, painful oblivion, to be torn apart by the unborn. Even if painful he would finally know peace. He could feel Raumn within turning and twisting, preparing to feast on him as well, only when he expired... he felt nothing. He felt not hordes of things come to rend his soul... he could only feel the demon which had been with him for years now, twisting and turning, pulling away from him. He could feel it looking at him. And he could feel four great eyes looking upon him as well. He was so tired, he'd fought for the Legion, he'd fought for his gods. He merely wanted it to be over now. But he knew in that moment it would not be over. "You are to be rewarded, Argel Tal, you are to be allowed to serve the gods yet further." If he could respond, his only response would have been to reject such a gift. The gifts the gods gave were not always welcome to their recipient. And in that moment, The Last Angel spread his wings... and was born again. Argel Tal. The Crimson Lord. The Last Angel. and the Lord of Regret. Daemon Prince of the Word Bearers Legion. Master of the Serrated Sons. Former leader of the Gal Vorbak. http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5282/20110214230746587.jpg http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/5667/20110214230756580.jpg http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/6078/20110214230805016.jpg I'll have some unpainted pics of the marines up tonight.

MagicMan Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Ahh man, was hoping they'd be pre-heresy! Still, awesome! I'll be following this for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Starscream Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Thanks MagicMan. Also, I just finished getting my Chosen being shot. 90% done, some will be getting some purity seals. Weapons will not be added until next codex, given I'm not sure what equipment they may be allowed. Also, if I want melee units, I'll be subbing out some models. So even though I only have 10 men in a squad, I may have as many as 14-15 models per 10 man squad, for what equipment I want for C & C.
