JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Alrighty! Now, when someone is attempting to stalk you with raspberries, all you must do is simply release the tiger! Erm, *ahem* down to business. I would like to proudly present the beginnings of my Chapter, the Smithy of the Righteous. Not very flamboyant, I know. But what do you expect for a Crusade Chapter? A FREAKING POLEDANCER? (Not that anyone would object to that, I'm sure.) Anyhoo, I'm hoping to follow 'Shock and Awe' with this guy. Any suggestions?

hushrong Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Sounds fun. Also, 'shock and awe' with what guy? Is a picture missing by chance? Or do you mean your avatar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 By 'guy', I meant my Chapter. Yes, my avatar is a concept I've been considering, but I'm currently working on other concept art. You don't know shock and awe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Ahh, I wasn't sure if there was a missing picture that would instill the said shock and awe. Been on a few logs were images do not work and so on. My apologies on that, bud. as for the Righteous, I think it would be nice to see some of the concept art you've got and maybe get some background info that you have or are thinking about that will form your chapter.

Gorkimedes Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I support "shock and awe" and sit in anticipation of what will hopefully be color schemes iridescent in faith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 'Shock and Awe' is a set of tactics, relying on orbital drops and barrages for the most part. Concerning colours, I kinda like what is set on my avatar so far, assuming it's permitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorkimedes Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Looks good to me, you don't see many turquoise marines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Sadly, no. Turquoise is such a brilliant colour! Obviously, certain heraldry will differ than what's on the avatar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Okay, so, I was wondering if Storm Crows (Erm, I mean Ravens) would be okay to use in the tactics I'm pursuing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Turquoise would be a very striking and eye catching colour so thumbs up on that. As for the Shock and Awe tactics, it works well. I run drop pods, armoured cav and Storm Ravens myself and it works very well in concert. Drop pods and air superiority plays to Marines strengths, some might question the use of Storm Talons and Ravens but with the weapons systems versus the points cost they are point for point worth it. Plus being able to deploy grav centurions and a contemptor exactly where you need them helps ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 I think Assault Marines are going to be ideal here, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00branchow Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I'm liking it, especially the Darth Vader cape and loincloth. Is there a reason behind this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 No, not any special reason. I just like the Astartes in robes is all, like Master Belial of the Dark Angels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent aquila Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 quite the potential here with the scheme, let's see some really cool marines ASAP. any background or important info like founding or progenitor would be nice, gotta give something more substantial than a pic.

JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Well, background is currently under construction, but so far I have the following: The gene-seed is originated from the Imperial Fists, being a Chapter from the Second Founding (Legion Number VII). Because it's a Crusade Chapter focused on siege and hard hits, it only makes sense that Orbital Barrages, Drop Pods, Assault Marines, Vindicators, and similar equipment would be employed. Because of this, my Chapter would be especially vulnerable to groups like the Tau (for obvious reasons.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Okay, here's an update (sorta). I may have bought the first Assault Marine squad, though I'm still not sure whether to run Stormravens or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennifertheRedeemer Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Well, I haven't had a chance to build anything yet, so no photos...yet. I also have to get a new thing of paints, so there's that. Oh, would lasguns be useful for my current setup?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 If you're going for a highly mobile force I'd stick two special weapons in your Tactical squads like flamers, graviton, plasma or meltas. Heavy weapons will bog you down if you want to be flexible. I personally always take heavy weapons but that's because I operate a entrenched gun line tactic. I use rhinos to get my heavies where I want them and drop pods to deliver either dreadnoughts or Sternguard to assassinate things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
