Chaplain in the new Codex

Recommended Posts

It's always been a mild insult in the UK...  I picked it up from Portent back in the day...

Ah so I'm not old, just uncultured. Excellent I thought I was going to have to stop playing with toys soon :P :D

You do not stop playing with minis because you get old. You get old because you stop playing with minis ;-)

Do you guys really like the new chaplains? I mean the powerarmored ones on foot. I always found them a bit lacking over the older models, but I have to confess that the jump pack one and the terminator are better than the old versions.

 

Those are the only Chaplain models I'd consider using without conversion.

Why you not like Chaplain Huggy Bear?

I am quite happy with the current crop of Chaplains, my first chaplain is a 2nd ed version and he is a bit puny...

I am much happier with Chaplain in the Iron Mask:

do you need skull helmets to make a chaplain? like, is it a requirement?

I guess its not a requirement per se. But it is a symbol of their office, so one would expect a Chaplain to have one.

It represents the Deathly Face of the God-Emperor of Mankind.

So yeah, imo, its a requirement, along with the Crozius Arcanum and the Rozarius.

 

As for models, I dislike most of the range, Asmodai (old version) and Seraphicus excluded.

I like Seraphicus definitely. I also think this one has a nice look, though I wouldn't ever use him -

Chaplain Huggy Bear!

 

 

I do like Enkomi's spartan helm over his skull helm...  It's a nice touch.

But even in the book Ravenwing, the Chaplain is only ever seen without at least a face mask when he is by himself.  Several times we see him in robes and a death  mask.

That's my favourite Chaplain helmet. Which is why my Master of Sanctity will be using it.

I don't think a regular helmet makes much sense, but there are certainly some chaplains who forgo the helmet:

I like the idea of having no helmet, but having the chaplain paint his face to look like a skull.
