Miko's Mantis Warriors


*Furyou Miko

Recommended Posts

I'm taking part in a Tale of Four Gamers type thing, playing Mantis Warriors Space Marines.

 

The rules are: One unit per month, starting with an HQ and followed by a Troops.

 

Units may not be modified after their month.

 

It must be an army you have not collected before.

 

The armies will be fighting over a jungle world.

 

So, for month one, my WiP librarian (Force Axe, Level 2, Divination, Plasma Pistol);

A witch using xenos technology...no wonder you aroused the ire of the Loyalists. ;)

 

Like Brother Heinrich, I like the double Kama as well, in fact, it would be interesting to see that as a theme in your units.

 

The Preying Mantis was always my favorite bug when I was a kid. Still is.

Xenotech? I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

If those are Xeno tech, I'll have you take the Mechanicum to task, thank you! (Yes, I made them out of DEldar and Tau bits, but ssh! Kamas are hard!)

 

I plan on trying to keep the Kamas across the army, but since it's a seventh company army using 'light infiltrators' (IE: scouts when your fluff doesn't permit recruitment) as Troops, that's going to be somewhat difficult. ^^; I only have so many DEldar bayonets.

 

Inspiration is taken from Rokugan/Legend of the Five Rings, where the Mantis clan like to use kamas. Otherwise, the CCWs will be knives held in a reverse grip to make the same kind of hook-shape.

Finished to tabletop standard, and just in time to start on month two: Scout squad with Land Speeder Storm, created from... just the Storm box.

 

This could be interesting.
