Adeptus-Alaska Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 DONE! Nay, says I. Play loyalists. That way our games would be that much more awesome. Besides, it's boring when my Iron Warriors don't get to throw loyalist corpses off of the battlement walls I'm building in my game room... well you gotta answer the damn phone first(or at least return a brothers call)! maybe I'll do both! most of my 40K stuff is going into my sons blood angels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 still waiting for an update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkyn Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 The wait will be worth it, I'm sure. If there's one thing that I know very well, it's that Heathens never ceases to amaze us. I'm looking forward to seeing what other siege elements are included, as I'm going Imperial Fists for my Heresy-era force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus-Alaska Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I know, but I'm probably going to have go to his house to see them! (yes bro, that's a threat!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyaenidae Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Stack Up! BREACH! Corporal Biehn, of Sapper Platoon. Counts-As Meltagunner; His Trenchgun is loaded with Olympian Slag-Shells, the last of their kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrannicide Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Lil fella looks like a "Rusty" to me. Trenchgun Rusty. *Suddenly, heathens thread is overtaken by 30s-era ganger names.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I admire the courage to give a fully fledged SM something that looks like a shotgun! :tu: The only problem is it seems kind of small to me... Too elegant sort of... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHRMERGAWRD this is amazing. Have you thought about attaching some shotguns to their backs for cqc and trench clearing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonkin Arenis Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Oh my goodness, that counts-as Meltagun in Genius! Is that a shotgun from the Forgeworld Cadian Veterans set? And where is that left hand from? Awesome work so far, Heathens! Your work is always incredibly inspirational! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of the Raven Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I agree with Captain Semper that it seems too small a weapon for a gargantuan monstrosity like a space marine. Looks almost eldar, actually.That said, all these updates look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I love the idea of a marine with a simple extendable stock 12 gauge mag locked between his power back and back plate. You know. For close encounters. I think Legionary-Corporal Biehn would be an apt name for an Iron Warrior ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuskRaider Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I think the compact size is perfect for a Marine. They would need a powerful, compact weapon for CC Trench battles and the Shotgun would be perfect. Just make sure it's slam fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Wait, I thought slam fire was something you didn't want happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Slam fire was something you definitely wanted with the Winchester 1897. What it means is you hold down the trigger and keep pumping. More modern shotguns have since made that impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Ah. i thought it was when you tried to load ammo and the gun went off while you were loading. Without you having your finger anywhere near the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 Glad that this fella has inspired and created some discussion! I want more trench warfare heathens keep bringing that grim dark Lol, no worries there; I will be. *Suddenly, heathens thread is overtaken by 30s-era ganger names.* Oh God, no. Don't. :P I admire the courage to give a fully fledged SM something that looks like a shotgun! The only problem is it seems kind of small to me... Too elegant sort of... I happen to like the size. I've never really been a fan of Astartes who run about with "final fantasy syndrome", aka, giant freakin' weapons. Short, stout, and effective is the name of the game in trenches and boarding actions, and my Iron Warriors, who excel in both, will be reflecting this in short swords, trench clubs, hand axes, tomahawks, knives, bayonets and hand shovels with sharpened edges. Let my enemies make the mistake of bringing a 6 foot long blade into the claustrophobic walls of a trench; when they get their blades stuck in a mud-choked wall, I'll be more than happy to slam a knife into their throats to the hilt, or beat their skulls in with a short-handed mace. I'm using those shotguns for a 'recon' squad. I'm glad I know how good it looks now. Pics when you've finished, please. Have you thought about attaching some shotguns to their backs for cqc and trench clearing? Every squad will have a shotgun loaded with slag-shells, which will be their melta gunners. Boom-shaka-laka! Is that a shotgun from the Forgeworld Cadian Veterans set? And where is that left hand from? Awesome work so far, Heathens! Your work is always incredibly inspirational! Indeed it is. The Left hand is just the open sanguiniary guard one; I bought a cluster of them about a year ago, and they have a load of uses. I agree with Captain Semper that it seems too small a weapon for a gargantuan monstrosity like a space marine. Looks almost eldar, actually.That said, all these updates look good. Pretty much what I told Semper above. Thanks for the kind comment. You know. For close encounters.I think Legionary-Corporal Biehn would be an apt name for an Iron Warrior Ha! I like it; done and done. Slam fire was something you definitely wanted with the Winchester 1897. What it means is you hold down the trigger and keep pumping. More modern shotguns have since made that impossible. Not needed if you hit what you're aiming at the first time. ;) Ammo conservation is life conservation, especially in a mud-choked trench, or a forlorn hope. Glad y'all are liking these guys, and thanks for the comments! The fifth guy should be ready soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Well, historically slam-fire was a boon to the trench gun. Allies jumped in German trenches and pretty much just swept the lines. They were so effective that the German government lodged a formal complaint about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
