Hi Folks,

I start a new project now, and I'd like to share with you. I've almost finished my Combat Company project and will post the result before the end of the year (miss only a few HW for devastator squads and to paint the transport).

So i was looking for a new long-term project. I already owned a strong Tzeentch force needing a few tweeks to be playable. I've tried to play Saim Hann but didn't appreciate the style of play...

... And actually I can't resolve myself not painting DA related anymore... biggrin.png

So I started my reflexion... My first thought was to buy 6 DV sets and paint them in the colour scheme of each sucessor... But this solution, wouldn't have brought things that I don't already have...

Then I thought about what new possibilities GW gave us with the new allies system....

And the idea came suddendly : make 1000pts lists using the chapter traits and use them as count as unforgiven chapters.

So here's the result :

  • Angels of Redemption : White Scars (because they are supposed to redeploy fast following any rumours)
  • Consecrators : Iron Hands (because they keep the old tanks and relics)
  • Angels of Vengeance : Blood Angels (because of their brutal reputation)
  • Guardians of the Covenant : Black Templars (because of their monk organization)
  • Disciples of Caliban : Ultramarines (because they are the youngster and are unlikely to be organized like the primogenitor)
  • Angels of Absolution : Imperial Fist (because of their standard organization and discipline)
I've started with the White Scars/ Angels of redemption. mainly because I owned the models of the list and because WS are one of the most powerful SM chapters in the current meta. Therefore, they can constitute a strong allies in future tough games.

I'll post a link to the list once I post it in the vanilla army list section.

I've started with the HQ choice. This will be a chapter master on bike with the standard wargear (TH & Shield Eternal). But I wanted to make him switchable into a count as Sammael in Apocalypse games or if I wanted to use my AoR with the DA codex.

That's why I've used the maxmini jet bike and make a Elmo-patten Plasma Cannon. msn-wink.gif

Then the 1st troops choice : scouts with sniper rifle.

I've found inspiration into Radjen's work to make hooded scouts.

Next step : the bikes

Hope you'll like this new project

And modified the Master jetbike to fit more his status :

The consecrators are on the way to receive reinforcements as a LS javelin.

Nothing new then unless the wonderful work done by Niels of Studio Aphelion

 

I've asked him to realize the symbol of each successor to put on my vehicles.

 

Enjoy

The finished AoR Sammael is excellent, as is the Consecrators breacher captain!

 

For some reason I didn't realise how big the Javelin land speeders actually are! Makes the old metal RW land speeder I've got stashed away look like a jet bike :) Look forward to seeing it in the Consecrators colour scheme brother.
