Panzer Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 The Redemptor is not just the closest in size, fluff wise the Warsuit IS a Redemptor just with less armour plates and a living Marine as pilote. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

False alarm. It doesn't have all its armor plating. Those idiots must have accidentally dropped one here before it was fully assembled!" Eldar warrior B: "Stupid mon-keigh!

Panzer Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 It's fair to say that imo we have some of the most pleasent people of B&C in this subforum while some of the most unpleasant ones luckily stay away from here. Yay us. ^^ Jolemai and Dont-Be-Haten 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Still waiting on parts for veteran intercessors. Dont even think the two bodies have been posted yet. Also still undecided on adding tabards. Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" We've had infiltrating scout motorbikes since 3rd ed Maybe it gets grav-chuted in like a modern airborne assault vehicle? That makes more sense.

SnorriSnorrison Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Quick fluff-question for all those familiar with C:SM. Are veteran Intercessors more like company veterans and would therefore bear the blood drop of their respective company on their shoulders or would they be part of the first company and thus have the skull insignia as company markings?

SnorriSnorrison Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Could do both actually: Get those small skull-decals and put them in the corner of the shoulder pad, and perhaps add some gold throughout the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I'll be doing the helms gold for sure. They're vets so it makes sense. I really want to add tabards still but just dont know if I can be bothered to sculpt the 10 I need plus another 3 for aggressors.

SnorriSnorrison Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Maybe take some from the Black Templars’ and cut them into shape? Or just the basic ones from the tactical marine kits... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The helmets should be gold anyway as Vets. The question is whether their right shoulderpad is going to show the first company symbol or not. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 In the Space Marine codex I believe they are 1st Company according to the fluff (white helms is the example for Ultramarines in text and images). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) Previously, a veteran sergeant could be apart any company. Company veterans are usually those that are apart of the Captain's inner circle. His war council if it were. You could essentially do either. Company veterans are now 2~5 models. You could easily have them represent the captain's war council and give them their blood drop//fancy shoulder pad. OR you could simply do first company veterans as part of an Ad-hoc company during battle.Ad-hoc companies are how Astartes used to fight, having 'x' units from 6th ~ 10th and then having majority of squads from the company. As recently as the Angels Blade campaign book we saw the first, second, and fifth fight together with Alphael having his command veterans fight alongside him while the 1st company fought alongside both he, and Karlaen.

Xenith Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The above is why I'm veering away from BA toward a successor. So much confusion with helmet paint schemes. Charlo 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majkhel Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Company Veterans are sadly imo slowly being removed from the current edition following the disappearance of the command squad. So I would assume Veteran Intercessors is the way for putting Primaris into the 1st Company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I would assume Veteran Intercessors is the way for putting Primaris into the 1st Company. Really feel there should be a primaris version of company veterans honestly. Purely because unless you're an ultra marine player, there is no other way to get a proper bodyguard unit. Majkhel 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I'd be fine without Primaris Company Veterans if Sanguinary Guard had a bodyguard rule and we're eventually getting Primaris Sanguinary Guard.^^ Karhedron 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
