plasman Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 "Pre big Heresy spankers, at my signal, unleash hell!!!" ;) MkVI (Corvus) are heresy and post heresy armours, not pre heresy ones plus the bolter and heavy bolter on your pictures are not pre heresy either, you heretic! <_< But who cares anyway, MkVI are also my favorite type of armours and they are the original Rogue Trader armours as well (when the Horus heresy concept didn't even exist), so keep up the good work and don't mind the critics about orthodoxy. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235226-pre-heresy-word-bearers/#findComment-2832848 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac the knife Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 You could go really crazy and get the Grey knight shoulderpads with the books on them. Just file off the sword through the book and you'll have scrips pre inscribed on the pads. Just an idea might make creating the chapter symbol and inscriptions a bit easier for you.

Grotsmasha Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 The Heresy Art books show that kind of heavy bolter, so I call safe. Cheers, Jono Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235226-pre-heresy-word-bearers/#findComment-2833592 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakiq Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 The Bolter and Heavy Bolter used here are actually featured several times in Horus Heresy: Collected Visions. So for a Word Bearers force from somewhere around the time of the Isstvan massacre they are fairly accurate.
