BA Today

[Karhedron]

Just finished an Apothecary as part of my Call to Arms vow. I plan to have him leading the Hellblasters that I am working on as part of the same vow in my Angelic Inheritors list.

Don't forget there's a sub-event ..

[Rhavien]

Brothers, I need your help. May I bring this post of mine to your attention and ask for an answer, if you feel confident about the situation?

I feel like the rules section is not very frequented and I want to get this right the next time.

Played my first game against tsons. It was a hard fought battle and I lost 75-95. 
 

They really need some toning down, imo. 
 

I ran 2x3 plasma inceptors too, but I think I'm gonna drop them.

few bits and bobs going on for me currently 
- got some 3d printed blood angel jump intercessor torsos commissioned, hoping to get those arrive soon (along with some torsos in running poses with BT style/sternguard style tabards and some terminator legs with tabards). Going to use those to make some more sergeant type models and some vanguard. plus my third terminator squad.

- been building a death company dread, again some 3d printed bits involved (this time from archies forge), going for a wild abandon type charging pose, will post pictures once it's fully built, but happy so far!

- starting building a second scout squad

- started building on foot death company

- have a set of grey hunters and a set of blood claws coming to use as extra bodies to mix into various existing squads.

Signed up for the last RTT I'll be able to go to in a while! I made top half my last two outings. I'm hoping to make top third this time!

 

Here's to hoping I don't face IK or DG round one! XD

Quick question for my Blood Angel brethren, regarding the death company.

I'm toying with the idea of making a BA sucessor but I have doubts about the black rage.

Within the primaris chapters is the fall to the black rage less common?  

 

 

 

[Jolemai]

It was at first, but now there's little noticeable difference between the Chapter's Firstborn and Primaris. 

I may be wrong, and there's probably a more in depth answer out there, but that's my initial thoughts from what I've seen.

[Karhedron]

At first there were no reports of Primaris succumbing to the Black Rage and there was in-lore speculation that they might be immune. However we now have Primaris Death Company. There has been no in-universe explanation for why this suddenly appeared IIRC. Obviously in modelling terms GW has been porting popular units to Primaris so this is not surprising.

the common theory is:

- primaris blood angels made by cawl haven’t succumbed, they didn’t prior to returning to blood angels and successors after the devastation of baal at all.

- primaris blood angels made with the normal step of sanguinius’ blood from priests succumb.

 

almost like the genetic memories are in the blood harvested from Sanguinius after his death.
