Arkangilos Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I love how the BA were called Hell Riders (or the First Chapter or whatever). I wonder how they earned that! Gah, I'm just so pumped!

Nomus Sardauk Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 It says HELL RIDERS, first chapter only. Which is what I called my Marines when I was 12! Theres a bigger, clearer image that Olis posted in the NRA section - if someone could edit it in that'd be beaut. I'm in my phone atm Here ya go! Ah, thanks very much brothers (I was on mobile so my view was a bit limited), "Hell Riders" hmm...?

Luca Pacioli Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 AWESOME!! Can't wait for the next book!! Loving the old name for the 1st chapter and the fact that the strategic tendencies include "high intensity warfare." Couple of things (on my phone so can't see too clearly) -is that a red marble design on the right leg (as you look at it) -is that a "codex astares" tactical squad marking on the right paulron? -any info on the silver hand from the old rogue trader days?

Charlo Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I think the leg is just battle damage/ a pattern The marking looks like the DA tactical one The silver hand is cool! I noticed that as well, could be ace. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297201-ba-today/page/65/#findComment-4244404 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 Just had a daydream about a Thunderhawk gunship in Death Company colours going into Hover mode and disgorging THREE Death Company Dreadnoughts... This is SO on my todo list!

CaptainHelion Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I've got a 1500 point game on Wednesday. Not sure what to bring, as there's a 50/50 chance my opponent will bring his Anti-marine marines or his anti-everything else IG. Lots of options, and not sure which to go for.

appiah4 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Another weekend passed by without any painting, shame on me.. I really need to get out of this.. thing I'm in, I have been off painting so long that I have started to procrastinate out of fear of doing poorly on my half finished bike squad.. Maybe I should just paint something lite to warm up. A converted AOBR Terminator Squad Alpharius sounds about up my alley. Simple but fun. Gonna get these primed for next weekend.

Xenith Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 -is that a red marble design on the right leg (as you look at it) I think the leg is just battle damage/ a pattern If you look closely, you can see the outlines of eyes nose and mouth in the darker red circle, so it seems like some inlay/ornamentation. I've heard that all these images were super detailed, like scale inlays on the Alpha Legionnaire etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297201-ba-today/page/65/#findComment-4245192 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherMax Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I would go: HQ - Priest w/ jump pack and Valour's Edge Elites - 5 Sang Guard w/ fist and banner - 5 DC w/ jump packs and fist Troops - Tactical squad - Tactical squad Fast Attack - 10-man assault squad - 10-man assault squad Heavy Support - Vindi - Vindi - Stormraven Comes in around 1300 so 200 for upgrades. You could do with pods or APCs for the tacticals but it's a decent base!

Riot Earp Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Fought yesterday a Battle in our Campaign. 3000 Points BA with Withe Skar allies against 1500 CSM and 1500 Necrons. I attacked the home planet of the necrons and they started with 6% more troops. Also all infantry could also jump 12 but had to take dangerous terrain tests. It was a close fight. We played Malstrom Mission six and it ended in a tie in round 7. If the last wraith would have died i would have take the win away. Afterwards my opponents claim me the win cause he played the wraiths half the game with WS 5 by mistake. So i would have made eventualy much more wounds with my sanguard. He was sorry and let me claim a free spot on his homeplanet. Although my Sangpriest Tiberius was badly injured in this battle. He lost 1WS BS and one wound.

Riot Earp Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Yea but you have to take an dangerous terrain test and cannot attack after that jump move. Jump packs could use their packs in the movement and in the attackphase. Brought the Necronplayer much more advantage than me.

Jolemai Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Construction complete on Death Company Dreadnought #2 and a Legion pintle heavy bolter (for my Cerberus). Plan for the rest of the week is to repair my Predator and sort out all my hunter-killer missile upgrades. Then for undercoating the 15 or so items I need painted by February...
