Piano_Sam Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hello All, I'm trying to do a surprise for my brother who has been, somewhat on the fence about switching to Heresy, and gift him with a unit of Justaerin, a Sons of Horus Mortis Contemptor, Abaddon, and the man himself, Horus Lupercal. All painted in Luna Wolves livery (yes, I intend to do white Justaerin and Abaddon). Anyway, I was thinking, also about a vehicle for him and I ran into a, small, problem. Anyone have an idea why Forgeworld doesn't have SoH or LW vehicle doors? They have, almost, everyone else, even legions that haven't been done yet, like the BA DA and UM could use the existing doors in a pinch. WB have legion doors, but nothing for the Sons. I can understand not doing LW, and really, it wouldn't be a problem to use the brass etchings for either iteration of the legion on doors, but something official would be nice. Maybe this is a rant, but I'd like to think FW visits, sees these threads, and thinks, 'We should do this.'

Nakuth Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 You could always use some of the Luna Wolves brass etch in the meantime, as a substitute for actual sculpted legion doors. http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Etched_Brass/LUNA_WOLVES_BRASS_ETCH.html Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293477-sons-of-horusluna-wolves-doors/#findComment-3739601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ion Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 As Cotys said, use the Brass Etch Also an aside, the Justaerin were always in black armour, even as Luna Wolves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293477-sons-of-horusluna-wolves-doors/#findComment-3739662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piano_Sam Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 As I mentioned in my post, I know I could use the brass etchings. I just would have liked for there to be something else available. This is more a...conversation piece than a plea for advice. Regarding the Justaerin...meh. Whatever. Abaddon wore white in Horus Rising. I guess I can call these his personal Terminator Squad, nothing says I can't use the models for regular Termies, and it's probably just as well, anyway. They don't really go into much depth regarding the LW prior to them becoming the Sons. Every mention of a Luna Wolf is described as being in white armor.

m_r_parker Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Unfortunately there aren't going to be any SoH Legion Rhino or Land Raider doors anytime soon. A number of people have asked this of the deisgners at Open Days, Games Days, various Weekenders, and their intention is that the Brass Etch enables you to customise existing doors. Some of the legions that have doors either have no brass etch or the brass etch was released well after the doors went on sale. Kinda sucks, but that's the way it is.

Marshal Loss Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Like Parker said, FW said they didn't bother making Sons of Horus doors because it ended up just looking like they put the etch on, so they decided to let players do it themselves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293477-sons-of-horusluna-wolves-doors/#findComment-3739768 Share on other sites More sharing options...
