Sviar Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I Sviar vow a Vanquisher in honour of Olof and the proud citizens of Sviar. It was a grand gesture to dedicate this competition to Kierdale I can already submit my Sviar world and I shall expand it in the short story about my Vanquisher. I started on it a little early(friday) hope you don't mind. I'm still wating for some good ntural light so I can take a photo of my primed armour. IndexSviars historyOlofs legacyHollidaysArmed forcesSviar 1Sviar 2Sviar 3 Sviars history begins in the Great Crusade. The Orks are using a planet now known as Sviar 1 as a jump point to conquer the whole sector. The Sviar worlds wasliberated by the Luna Wolves to limit the Ork travels. Horus Lupercal sends the word of its liberation and it was decided that it should be populated.While the first settlers was on their way, the Ork Warboss Longthooth summoned all of his forces with the intent to crush the invaders. Horus Lupercalhad already foreseen this, so heand his Luna Wolves was prepared for the arrival of the Orks. When the Orks made planetfall they were surprised bya swift and effectively executed attack, they allbecame slaughtered by the Luna Wolves. In the rest of the sector the Luna Wolves only meet sporadic resistance and it didn't take long before the sector was liberated.After the Heresy two Ork clanes declared war against the Sviar planets. The Evil Stompaz and the Edged Spearz under the command of WarbossSharpeye who was there to recapture the whole sector. At the time there were only a few scattered villages and one Imperial Guard regiment fromthe Deus Hortus 129:th, who where assigned to train the newly founded PDF. The massacre was inevitably. The Deus Hortus took a last stand at theoutskirts of what is now Birch Island. The Captain Luciana sent a ditress signal and then she ordered the PDF to evacuate the settlers to thehigh ground. It took two days before an entire regiment was dead. On the third day the Orks had butchered the PDF and started to hunt down thefleeing settlers. In the midst of beheading, a large Space Wolves force led by Olof the Grim made planetfall.The Orks turned their attention to the newdeadly threat. The fierce warriors from Fenris lay down a hailstorm of botler fire whilst the Vindicators keeptpounding the Orks. But for each wave the Orks came closer and soon the Marines draw their chainsword and boltepistols. While the Space Wolvesfuriously cut down the Orks, Olof the Grim fought his way to Warboss Sharpeye. He ran towards the Warboss while emptying his boltpstol,he threw iton the ground and assaulted him with his Relicblade Isenskarp. The Warboss finally fell when Isenskarp broke through the rib cage and out throughhis skull. The few Orks that remained started to flee only to die by bolter fire.Olof the Grim Sent for more settlers, many of them where from Fenris. He made sure a new PDF force was founded, to that there were manyvolunteers.Olof the Grim also founded some cities. As a sign of gratitude and honor many citizen gave their children Fenris names and most of the places too. Sotoday there are mainly Fenris names on the Sviar citizens. The stoneworks erected to the honor of Horus Lupercal were destroyed, but he were never written out of the Sviars history. The Inquisition has chosen not to try to erase it because he declared his victory to the Holy God Emperor, andtrying to erase that could be considered heresy.Olofs LegacyOlof the Grim has made a huge impact on the Sviar Worlds. Even today almost every Sviar carry a Fenris name, and so do places.The first PDF soldiers wore a uniform that resembled the Space Wolves power armour. Today these colors can be found on every Sviars shoulderarmour as a sign of respect and as a honor of Olaf the grim.In a big underground vault there is a humble altar. On that altar has Olofs relicblade Isenskarp and his two cracked shoulder guards on it. Overt therelicblade hangs a picture depicting Olofs triumph over the Orks. The left wall from the vault door is a work of art depicting the Holy God Emperor inthe Great Crusade. This room is forgotten since hundreds of years ago. It does not show up on a blue print. The architect, the Engineer andthe few workers took this secret with them to their graves.This construction was ordered by the Secret priesthood, and only they have the location written somewhere in one of their million archives. There are some clues foundin a small file in the Space Wolves older data library. Legend has it that there is a tomb near the right wall the stone lid isdepicting Olof the Grim. The legend does not say whether the tomb is empty or not. Only the secret priesthood knows the truth about the legend.Holidays"The day of the Wolf" and "the Olofs day" are holidays on all of the Sviars planets. They are celebrated with a big feast to honor their heros.Armed ForcesEvery Sviar has to do some service to the PDF, after that they can choose to enter the training program for the PDF. It does not matter how skillfulyou are, if someone have trouble completing the a theoretical or a practical course, the teachers is going to give you some extra attention. Even if ittakes a extra year or two, everyone at the end meets the criteria to enter the PDF. There are always helpful teachers, fellow cadets and PDFvolunteers.Once in the PDF, you do a two year basic training and after that you choose a area of expertise followed by hard training. You can choose severalareas of expertise. This is followed by an intense and long regular training.A PDF sergeant is a PDF soldier that has excelled in most of the expertise areas and has showed worthy in other ways too, like manner, helpfulnessand to inspire the PDF soldiers to great deeds. The high ranking PDF officers can promote a experienced Sargeant.When deemed ready you can choose to join the Imperial Guard.Sviar 1Sviar 1 is a militarized world. Every city is fortified in some way. The worlds capital Upsala is a huge fortress, the walls is 70 meters tall, and the Planetary Governor hashis mansion here. Upsala has the biggest worship temple in the entire sector, erected for the Emperor. It is densely ornated, and the two headedeagle at the top shines bright over the big capital and can be seen from the nearest city Draup Nir. In the center square there is a big bronze statueof Olaf the Grim. Upsala has its own force ina addition to the PDF. They recruit among the toughest soldiers from the PDF to the defence of theCapital. They serve as a elite unit, and train intensively six days a week.Upsala also houses a huge industry district. In the centre lies an Adeptus Mechanicus temple ornated with a big cog over the entrance. The bigtemple houses a regiment of Skitarii. Their orders are to help the PDF defend Upsala. Should the wall fall, then their final stand should be by thetemple. The temple has a secretive priesthood, the Inquisition has no more data on them.In a rebuilt ancient castle in the Administratum district lies a Departmento munitorums Commissariat. The Sviar soldiers only obey Sviars ownCommissars. To assign a non-Sviar commissar to a Sviar unit is to send him/her to an early death, as Sviars refuse to obey a Commissar whodo not understand their culture, situation, tradition and have respect for their history. In a nearby building lies the Divisio Linguistica. One of theirmany duties, is to translate a very distorted form of High Gothic to High Gothic.In the scholar district lies Sviar University, it is the sectors oldest and largest. The big complexes houses many guest teachers from all over theuniverse. Nearby is Sviarslargest hospital, although it isn't Upsalas only hospital, this has the most advanced equipment for the most difficultprocedures. On top of the roof you'll find a large aircraft pad. The V-shaped building in the southern part of the district is a research facility.East of the Industry district lies a mining plant. There is a frequent shuttle traffic with minerals from the inhabited nearby planets and the mining townRykva that lies far North on Sviar 1. On Svair 1 the mining industry is very big and the quality on the finished products is excellent. ThereforeUpasla has a Forge World. It produces all the equipment for the Sviars Imperial Guard and for the PDF.Half of the World is covered with forests to provide air for the population. If a new city is to be built the engineers must calculate how many if any trees should be cut down to make room for a new city. Right now there is room for at least ten more cities without having a shortness of air.Sviar 2Sviar 2 is an agriculture world. It produces and supplies food for the whole Sviar and the rest of the sector. There is a lot of water on Sviar 2 and thesoil is still in perfect condition. Kettle is mainly breed for fertilizer, but can be slain for festivities. On Sviar 2 there are only a few farm villages, mostof the surface is covered in cereal fields. Some farmers are stationed here permanently, while some work for a month and after that take the shuttle to Sviar 1 for a month leave and return to work the following month.The shuttle base on Sviar 2 is a fortified station, from some angels it resembling a fortress. The station provide the farmers with supplies like pesticides and work related equipment. The shuttles also leaves with crops barley and other key food ingredients to different locations. The shuttle station ismanned by 200 PDF guards,they do all the chores. They too, like some farmers work in a monthly shift. The farmers use huge harvesting vessels.Every day the work from morning to evening due tothe vast area they have to cover each day. Once a year they organize the farm day. It is heldnear the shuttle station and in mid shift so everyone can participate. It contains the traditionally race with harvesting vessels, a market, freshly grilled kettles and more homebrewalcohol than they can drink. There is also a competition whichfarm village that has the best brew. It is in mid shift near the station so the PDF guardscan intervein if things get out of control.There is a big closed area that contain forest and fern like plants that produces rich oxygen for the fields and for the population. All other fauna hasbeen wiped out to make room for the cereal fields.Sviar 3Sviar 3 is a moon that orbits around the Sviar 1. Sviar 3 is covered with a dense jungle, swamps and variety of plants, some of them is very toxic.In these jungles lives many small tribes. The two biggest ones is called Vodurs and Ulfurs. Every year they meet at the tree of Aquila, which is twotrees that has grown together in a way that itresembles the two headed eagle. The tribesmen and tribeswomen belive that this is a sign from the Holy God- Emperor. Beneath that tree they fight to win a place in the PDF. As service for the Holy God-Emperor is the highest honor they can receive.Most of them is skilled survivalists and often qualify for Imperial Guard duty, so they are the only force that will be sent to death world assignment.Sviar 3 is a defense moon. Runways for the Naval Fleet runs beneath the surface. There are kilometers of runways for a lightning attack on anyoncoming threat. Scattered along Sviar3 is hidden long range defense missiles.

our_baz Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I our_baz hereby vow to complete a Leeman Russ for the E company of the 7th Levalloisian Life Guards. #UPDATE#The Leeman Russ has been given the name Shield of Amun by the Regiment. Had a good couple of days on this, base coat down and starting the pattern on the hull. #UPDATE#The Shield of Amun is taking shape.Finished flat colours on the main hull, and other small stuff will weather / corrode armour once full tank is complete. Onto the side armour. #Update 21/01/2015# Further forward momentum. Camo on one side of the hull complete(ish) needs sharpening up in a couple of places and a few touch ups. One more side, turret, tracks and weathering to go. We have until March right...... #UPDATE# Final flat colours applied to the body of the hull. Started work on turret should hopefully get that done tonight. #Update#Flats added to turret. Not my best work as was painting angry. Right tracks tonight. #Update# Work on the tank is complete. Will upload regiment/tank fluff in due course. Regimental History Levallois is a mercury sized planet, with two smaller moons which are inhabited. in the Segmentum Pacificus 12 parsecs from the Forgeworld of Stygies. Human population of the planet is in region of 20 billion according to imperial records, with the population split between to hive cities at the poles. According to pre-imperial records Levallois has had a human colony since the fall of old night, records indicate the populace to be particulary warp sensitive with a above average level psykers present. Levallois was brought under imperial rule during the early part of M31, however exact details of the expeditionary force that liberated the plant has been purged from imperial records. Local myths surrounding the liberation describe the liberation force as red armoured copper skinned Astartes. The Life Guards was founded directly after the liberation, initially prior to imperial rule they were praetorians to a faction ruler (Tsar) from the southern hive. The recruits would swear an oath of loyalty to the ruler giving the life to the Tsar hence the name life guards. With the transition to imperial rule the oaths of loyalty were changed to the emperor and the tradition continued. Further data from regimental history indicates that as a further act of fealty the Life Guards adopted the bright red tunics in homage to the liberating Astartes and the Imperial Army units that arrived alongside them.During the Horus Hersey planet and regiment remained loyal to the emperor, however as Levallois is on a warp route between Stygies and Terra the planet was of strategic importance to the rebels, and as a result was invaded by forces loyal to the Warmaster. The regiment served valiantly during this time holding the spaceport in the southern hive city for 6 months before relief came in the form of the first legion. Post Hersey the regiment has continued to serve the Imperium with honour on countless war zones. Most notably they were part of 7th army group of the lord commander Solar Macharius crusade, notably they were among forces that brought the planet of Jucha back to the light if the emperor.As the Life Guards are recruited from a Hive world the combat doctrine of the company has been influenced by their homeworld, as a result the Life Guards are specialise in urban warfare. In addition the regiment to not shy away from heavy use of abhumans and psykers, the regiment actively incorporates them into platoons rather than segregation. Tank History Each vehicle attached to an armoured squadron of the life guards has specific name (Taken from past heroes of the regiment or planet) in that particular squadron. This name is then passed onto any replacement vehicle joining the squadron. The Shield of Amun is the 17th Tank to bear that name in service of the regiment. This current incarnation entered service from the Forge World of Stygies 7 years previously. The vehicle has survived 3 tours of duty with the regiment. Which is the third longest lived battle tank in the regiment.

GrandMasterAralia Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I, GrandMasterAralia, vow to complete two drop sentinels (one squadron, okay right?) for the 73rd Elysian Recon Company. Pictures as soon as I can get my laptop working again... Burnt adapter cable despite my best attempts to appease the machine spirit within. Initial plan of painting my venators dropped due to lack of time, I figured I'd have a better chance at finishing the two sentinels compared to three tauros venators. Good luck all, praise the Emperor and may the machine spirits of your projects remain cooperative!

CommissarZac Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 A write up of Isabel's Vengeance I've been working on. The Legend of the Haunted Leman Russ The Joutinheim 798th Armored Regiment had always had close ties with The Order of the Blushing Maiden since it's order's founder rescued one of the regiment's Commissars leading to the order's founding. But commanding the regiment in it's “haunted” Leman Russ Punisher is an honor that is given to only the most compitent and qualified. So guarded is the position, that it's recipient and crew is chosen by a board made up of the Commissariat and the Cannoness of the Order. The following is the tale of how the Haunted Leman Russ came to be. Long ago on planet Joutinheim, the demons of chaos sought to claim the planet for their perverse dark gods. The brave men and women of the Joutinheim 798th Armored Regiment and the Order of the Blushing Maiden were fighting valiantly, Sister Isabel's squad had managed to locate and engage the enemy demon prince. With a mighty backhand from the demon her squad was decimated, and Sister Isabel was mortally wounded. Before the demon prince could land the killing blow a hail of shells landed square in his back. The armored regiment's remaining Leman Russ punisher had broken through the lines and lent its aid to Sister Isabel. The demon buckled under the flurry of rounds that pelted it to near submission. In an incredible act of strength the demon smashed into the tank and stunned the heroic crew inside, effectively silencing the Punisher cannon that had left him clinging to his own life. The demon then extracted his revenge by pulling out the crew only to rip them apart like dolls. The Scions using the tank as cover flanked the demon and opened fire with their Hot shot lasguns. Annoyed at the pesky soldiers he turned and gave chase. Isabel took the opportunity while the demon was distracted to climb in to the tank and reawaken the Punisher cannon. Gears and servos whined in protest as she brought the turret to bear on the demon's head. “AVE IMPERATOR FOUL DEMON!!!!!!!” she cried as the cannon perforated the demon with countless rounds. The demon was reduced to a pile of offal and pink mist as the main gun expended the last of it's ammo. As Isabel lay dying in the turret, she spoke a final prayer. “Holy Emperor....if it is your will to call me to the Golden Throne....then I eagerly await....your beckon...but my work is not yet done...if you can see fit to grant my one selfish wish to....see all your enemies destroyed before I report to your side, You would have my eternal gratitude.” After the battle, and once the Punisher was repaired, the new crew reported hearing war hymns when the engine was idling, and the commander reported hearing the cry “AVE IMPERATOR!!!” as the Punisher Cannon unleashed it's payload. The Adpetus Mechanicus investigated and found the Tank functioning as normal. The Cannoness of the order, along with the regiment's Commissar agreed, that due to Valiant effort of Sister Isabel she would be canonized and made a Saint of the Order. And the Leman Russ that slayed the demon prince would be the Unit's standard bearer, and the Crew chosen based on merits both the Order and the Unit held in high regard. Current Crew of the Leman Russ Punisher “Isabel's Vengence” Commander: Colonel Ulfric Harman Driver: Sgt Flykr Ranagan Main Gunner: Sister Mary Pendragon Left Sponson Gunner: Cpl Reggie Marbot Right Sponson Gunner: Sister Geniveve Perna Hull Gunner: Sister Fraiya Gunier Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301573-regiments-of-the-bc-big-guns-never-tire/#findComment-3911958 Share on other sites More sharing options...

aura_enchanted Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 would militarum tempestus vehicles count since they are their own standard codex? the unfortunate reality is that they lack a vehicle with no transport capacity. all you have is the Valkyrie or the taurox prime.

WarriorFish Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 Sadly not aura, as the Scions only get vehicles with a transport capacity - that was the previous challenge. Do you have any other Guard vehicles? Good to see more entries (my likes still need to recharge it seems), this no doubt pleases the Emperor to see such devotion! I Ldorte of the 61st Daltarn Forge Guards vow the Baneblade "Indomitable" I'm assuming you'll be repainting your Baneblade? Would this be repainting the majority of the tank?
