-Volsung- Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Just a quick question. With the option for allies, is it possible to start fielding my old Leman Russ Exterminator again? Thanks! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258592-leman-russ-exterminator-allies/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
dswanick Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yes. Codex: Imperial Guard. 1 HQ (Lord Commisar or Primaris Psyker), and 1 Troops (Infantry Platoon, Veteran Squad, or Penal Squad) gives you 1 Leman Russ Squadron.

-Volsung- Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 Oh ok... Hmmm... how to justify the fluff for those extra Imp. Guard soldiers... Probably gonna buy some Valhallan models and make a squad of Slavoks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258592-leman-russ-exterminator-allies/#findComment-3144387 Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaguewolf Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 armoured battle group from FWs Imperial armour vol 1 .. one as HQ and one as troop Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258592-leman-russ-exterminator-allies/#findComment-3145452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Oh ok... Hmmm... how to justify the fluff for those extra Imp. Guard soldiers... Probably gonna buy some Valhallan models and make a squad of Slavoks I don't think much justification is required. SW's and IG have worked together many times in fluff. For look and feel I'd go with Vostroyans (love the models). If the LR's are painted in SW colors, I'd just keep them that way, and paint the IG totally different. For me, this is more for defiance for GW taking away our beloved tank.

hmk17 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Also the Space Wolves keep their own bondsmen outfitted like a an average PDF plus whatever the Wolves see fit. I'm sure that THE tank named after their primarch has made its way into Fenrisian service. :huh: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258592-leman-russ-exterminator-allies/#findComment-3145796 Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, this is more for defiance for GW taking away our beloved tank. Oh most definitely! Methinks I'll even put a marine on the top hatch with the pintle stormbolter just to rub it in their face. Anyone know if the forgeworld idea plaguewolf mentioned is do-able? Although I think, considering the rarity of Space Wolves using the tank, having two in a battle might be a little unusual. Hmmm...

At one time it was a pattern unique to SW armies.

The Iron Priests in your GC have meticulously kept the tanks alive sacrificing themselves and many servitors and thralls to ensure they keep fighting and killing in the name of Russ and the Allfather! OR, in honor of your GC delivering results and saving many IG lives, they provided several LRE's in honour of the blood debt.
