Conn Eremon Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 It may be pre-Dorn, but it could have remained well beyond that. Heck, you could probably see some goldarms on the walls of the Palace during the Siege.

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I like the grey and will still use them as my Siege of Terra force. They'll just stick with the grey scheme as a Terran born solidarity show. The artillery guys will probably be the normal (ish) yellow while my siege/shock force will have mostly black variant (again, ish) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295015-the-legion-for-you-community-assistance-thread/page/10/#findComment-3810138 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grand_master85 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 An that is what is so awesome about Heresy over 40k; you can have any scheme for your Legion that you like. Come up with an awesome reason for why and no-or would bat an eyelid. If it works for you, go for it!!

Marshal Rohr Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Prime, you can do your Phalanx Warders in the original scheme. When the release Dorn I'll be doing his honor guard like that.

Hyaenidae Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Heraldry is fluid, ladies and gents. Many different companies and battalions received special honours over the course of Unification or the Great Crusade, or have been tasked with special missions, or simply refuse to change their heraldry for various reasons (like the Terran Exiles of the XIX). Â My Iron Warriors are far cleaner than most, as my Dragoon-Captain is a stickler for functional equipment that looks the part. My Cataphractii are painted in a more distinctive pattern, to reflect ancient honours earned during Unifcation and the early Great Crusade prior to the discovery of Perturabo. Â My XX Legion will receive a very dark grey scheme, broken by light grey/white chains painted around their armour, to represent the sins of their brothers, and their specific calling as a 'clean-up crew' within the Legions' command structure. Each link in the chain will be representative of a successful mission. Â My XVII Legion Unification era Iconoclasts will be painted a pale ash color, a symbol of their calling as the purging flame of the Imperial Truth during the wars across Terra's surface. Â Stop thinking that you absolutely have to stick with the classic heraldry of your Legions, and go nuts, y'all. Challenge yourself, and don't restrict your imagination.

Marshal Rohr Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 It's not just heraldry. I paint my Fist's mark 3 underlayer metallic because it looks more functional. Even if space marine armor tends to be fairly flat, there are always areas that can be recolored to break up the monochromatic profile.

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 back on topic, I am still settled on the uni-grey scheme. BUT, I remember from my U.S. Cavalry days, that yellow is associated with the CAV. Â so, now I have a decision to make, do i change my CAV guys to yellow to reflect tha........you know what, screw it. they are ALL going to be in the Unification scheme. No one else(that I know of) is going that route, so as my pathfinder badge reminds me, I'll gladly blaze that trail. Â Â yep, unification era Imperial Fists will do nicely. Â thanks for helping out guys.....guess I'll start a planning thread in the next week or so. Â prime.

The early VIIth Legion, as the other Legions, all started out as a Regiment of several hundred - before their numbers grew to the tens of thousands. Â I figured a hundred-ish Unification style, then grow it into some Templar Brethren and standard 30K IFs. They'll all mix just fine. Â Good luck with your Sons of Dorn.

Adeptus-Alaska Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 so yeah, after some thinking last night,  I have decided to really run with the whole Unification wars era. what can I say, Painting grey appeals to me. I'll probably do Sol system and slightly beyond so I can still model a few Thunder Warriors. I will probably do a proper IF army later, but this appeals to me most. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295015-the-legion-for-you-community-assistance-thread/page/10/#findComment-3813622 Share on other sites More sharing options...
