Capt.Valefor Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hi all, I'm pretty new to this and have recently acquired a fair few 40k minis and have chosen the Dark Angels as my army. I was wondering, do they use augmented limbs? Would it be uncommon for a tactical squad member to have a bionic arm/leg etc? The reason I ask is for possible conversions for some of the DV models that double up. Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 The Dark Angels (like all Marines) do make use of bionics. Not to the extent that the Iron Hands do, but Grand Master of Librarians Ezekiel has a bionic eye. Your conversion idea for the duplicates sounds like a good plan!

Pyro X Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I know that Iron Hands use them alot and they have a DA model on GW's site with a 1/2 cyborg face on a DA sgt but I couldn't tell you on per fluff. I'd say go for it. I think it makes the models different and really pop out for being different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 All space marines make use of bionics. Bionic legs/arms are used when a marine looses his natural leg/arm. Same goes for eye bionics. There are however chapter like the iron hands and sons of Medusa who augment themselves voluntarily as its their tradition.

Aradiel Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 like it has been said above, the DA use bionics when needed (aka replacements for combat injuries, etc). ie, in the ravenwing black knights box the ravenwing banner is carried by a bionic arm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt.Valefor Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks for the info, I just wasn't sure fluff wise if they used them. I shall now begin conversions! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
