DarKHaZZ13 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Well... That makes my plans seem miniscule by comparison. I need to do some reading I think... Broaden my horizons haha. Any of the forge world books have stuff on the drop site massacre? Specifically for the Salaies? There isn't the greatest amount on them in the HH novels (other than them getting mauled...)

SW1 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Once the ETL is finished I might be interested in doing some HH stuff. Lol ... My pockets are not deep enough to match Jaspcat but wouldn't mind doing some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxichobbit Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 A few questions Jaspcat, if you don't mind. When are you planning on starting this? I've been intending to work on a Heresy era force for a while, but i'm fully committed to ETL so won't be making any move on it until mid August. Secondly, with regards to basing, would dark urban rubble be ok? I know Istvaan IV was very urban, but it's ages since I read Fulgrim so can't remember what kind of terrain Istvaan V had. If it's not ok that's fine, I can do more ash waste type bases. My armies currently are based on dark urban rubble to match my (planned) board, so dark bases with non-urban rubble should fit in ok. Depending on the answers to those questions, i'm totally doing Raven Guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about the others but I've started already :P Regarding rubble on Istvaan V: By the time of the battle the ancient ruins and monuments which were already present on the planet had either been demolished, used or added-to in order to create a killing ground. It is entirely plausible that rubble from destroyed defences. I for one would say go for it, but I for one will be littering the ground with the bodies of the loyalists ;) Incidentally, I will be making my thread today, Jaspcat. I'll send you the link.

Anvilarium Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I'm tempted to join in on this, but I'm due to become a Father (not an Iron Father) in less than four weeks so Omnissiah-only knows when I'll have a chance to get anything built or painted!! I've been slowly putting together an Istvaan V / Battle of Tallarn Heresy-era Iron Hands force. So far I've built 2 x 20-Man Legion Tactical Squads, and will hopefully be able to start painting them this weekend. I've also got enough parts to build the following: Infantry: - Legion Praetor/Iron Father - 5-Man Cataphractii Terminator Squad (will wait until Massacre to build these, as the Iron Hands have specialist Terminators called Gorgons) - 10-Man Recon Team (Power Armour with Sniper Rifles) - Two 5-Man Heavy Support Squads (or maybe 1 x 10-Man Tactical Support Squad) - 20-Man Breacher Squad (will wait until Massacre to build these, as the Iron Hands have specialist Breachers called Medusan Immortals) - 10-Man Destroyer Squad. Vehicles: - Contemptor Dreadnought (Conversion Beamer & Power Claw) - Six (!!!) Predators (thinking about putting Conversion Beamers on three of them) - Five Landspeeders - Three Rhinos - A Whirlwind - A Basilisk - A Vindicator - A Landraider Phobos (the old Forgeworld Pre-Heresy Landraider). As you can see, I've got a hell of a lot to build, and pretty much no time to build it in!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
