Lasti Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Hello J I’m in this hobby for a time but few months back, I became interested in Horus Heresy novels and game. I decided to start this new miniature and rules adventure and I chose Mechanicus as my new army. What is great that I’ll use it to play both HH and Wh40k because my game friends accept this (I’m a chill n’ beer player) and can always allay them with my large Grey Knights force, Ordo Malleus or Imperial Knights J Two armies in one For a start, I got/did : - Izdural von Maar - Magos form WFB VC Writgh - 3x Thallax Cohort – hard modified Multi-melta looks nasty - Tech Priest-Auxilla - 1x Adept with grav-gun, 4x Servo-automata (2x Heavy Bolter, 2x Rotor Cannon) All besides Thallax and Magos main body are kit-bashed and created from raw bits, some GS and guitar strings (low cost in $) . All models are highly modified, because in fuff of mine army, Magos likes this kind of stuff I plan to add 5x Castelax Battle-Automatas and 3x Myrmidon Destructors. I’m satisfied about them, with fact that Tech-priest Auxilla and Magos (besides Wright old) are made of free, old bits. For someone, certain minis can look Chaos-like but I guarantee they all are true servants of the Machine-God and The Emperor of Mankind All models are WIP so all of them will get some fixes and smoothing. Army details: Name: 13th Magos Explorator Izdural von Maar Expedition Fleet High Command: Magos Explorator Izdural von Maar Supremacy: Adeptus Mechanicus Allies: - Grey Knights Strike Fleet - Ordo Malleus forces - Imperial Knights Actual forces: - Magos Explorator Izdural von Maar (Magos/Dominus on abeyant) - 3x Thallax Cohort (2x Lightning Gun 1x Multi-Melta) - Tech Priest-Auxilla (1x graviton gun, 2x Heavy Bolter, 2x Rotor Cannon) FOTO: - Magos Izdural http://s14.postimg.org/eczr6yqb5/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/4i8m0qmcx/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/7ubi7s3ht/image.jpg - 3x Thallax Cohort http://s15.postimg.org/jh0zqtf63/image.jpg TSU I: http://s15.postimg.org/m7abo0buz/TSC_I.jpg TSU II: http://s15.postimg.org/o5lkzqtqj/TSC_II.jpg TSU III Multi Melta: http://s15.postimg.org/fw547lamj/TSC_III_MM.jpg - Tech-priest Auxilla Adept: http://s14.postimg.org/auscobesx/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/a3zmijcfl/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/g8r4vv4j5/image.jpg Servo-automata 1: http://s14.postimg.org/kkfqkvbg1/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/7vlg175bl/image.jpg Servo-automata 2: http://s14.postimg.org/xfnq7mqpd/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/wenhii9pt/image.jpg Servo-automata 3: http://s14.postimg.org/jn4py9ak1/image.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/obkptfzqp/image.jpg Servo-automata 4: http://s18.postimg.org/kfsfdfsc9/image.jpg http://s18.postimg.org/rka8mgzll/image.jpg Tech-priest Auxilla: http://s24.postimg.org/hp7bwqrt1/123.jpg 3x Servo-skulls: http://s28.postimg.org/3pus6215p/image.jpg Waiting for comments, cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298246-13th-mechanicum-expedition-fleet-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

malika666 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Hmm, but if this is Heresy era, how come there are Grey Knights? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298246-13th-mechanicum-expedition-fleet-wip/#findComment-3841050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lasti Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 It's cross-game army. Can play it in 40k in alliance and in Horus Heresy alone EDIT: I'm going to extend my forces for new models soon, and I'm thinking about some options. I was thinking about the core must-have models: - 5x Castellax Battle-Automatas (with some converted weapons) - 3 more Thallax - Myrmindon Destructors The central point of this forces will be one or two, really super-heavy nasty models, because this is what 's mechanicum about :) The choose will be made probably between Cerastus Acheron Knight (sick flamer) and Cerastus Castigator (sick sword). What do you think about planned reinforcements for my Mechanicum army? Which Knight will be better for my forces? Or you got some proposals for "super heavy slot" ? Cheers!

Battybattybats Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I've gone for the Styrix myself because of the clear mechanicum decoration.Which knight you go for may depend on what sort of opponents you expect to face, though i tend to just grab what i like the look of and idea of most and then try and figure out how to make that work on the table :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298246-13th-mechanicum-expedition-fleet-wip/#findComment-3935018 Share on other sites More sharing options...
