henrywalker Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 how do you differentiate between the paladins and the regular terminators model wise? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225623-paladins-and-termies/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sothalor Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Looking at the pics and sprues available on the GW site, it looks like the box has enough mini back banners to stick on every guy you can make. That appears to be the de facto method to differentiate them currently. If that's not enough, I suppose you could always use whatever spare bits you've got to jazz them up even further. I can also see going with a subtly different paint scheme for the armor itself and/or the heraldry shields.

That appears to be the de facto method to differentiate them currently. Also, looking at the pics, it appears that the helmets of the Paladins are slightly different compared with the stock Termie helms. The Paladin ones are more upswept in the nose area, where the Termie ones are flat. (although I think the Paladin helms are uglier) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225623-paladins-and-termies/#findComment-2700724 Share on other sites More sharing options...

daismith906 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 The difference between them as stated in the of the back new WD is the addition of icons/ back banners & decorated shoulder shields for the paladins. Apart from that there just normal terminators. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225623-paladins-and-termies/#findComment-2700781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joasht Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Not a fan of the banners personally, I don't like my models having dangly bits that can break off easily.

Qfx Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 In White Dwarf they show all of the bits that come with both the Terminators and the Basic Knights. The difference bit wise between the Paladins and the Terminators is the Tilt plates/shields and the helmets. There are four sets of shields shown. The first set are bare shields, the next set are the Paladin set [more ornate then the rest], the third has swords in the middle and the last has skulls in the middle. When it comes to the helms I can't really tell a difference. There are three rows of heads. The first row is the Apothecary and the bare heads. The next one are the basic Terminator helms, and the last row are the Paladin one. Nothing else is labeled as being Paladin only. Hope that helps.

Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 When I make my guys, I am going to have some models pull dual duty. Sometimes they'll be Paladins, sometimes regular Terminators. Looks like my only option is to have different shoulder shields for each squad and be very very clear about which squad is going to be Paladins during a game.

Justcar Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 When I make my guys, I am going to have some models pull dual duty. Sometimes they'll be Paladins, sometimes regular Terminators. Looks like my only option is to have different shoulder shields for each squad and be very very clear about which squad is going to be Paladins during a game. That's exactly what I am doing. I'm not going to spend the time modeling and painting a GK Terminator squad and be told that they can only count as that. I'm planning on making all of my models more ornate and specify which ones (by squad designation) are paladins and which ones are terminators.
