(sorry about that huge picture of the drawing I made for this legion, I'll fix that soon)My name is Alexander, and I have been fan of this hobby for over 5 years now. Last year I started getting a bit more in the Horus heresy and the great crusade, reading everything I could about the "lost legions" but sadly never being able to sate my hunger for info on these mysterious and hyper-ntressing legions!Then by the will of luck (or some eldar mind trickery perhaps?) I stumbled across Athrawes's AMAZING tread on his take on the second legion, I was completly captivated by his amazing vision! I loved the models he spurted out, and was in love with his fluff and ideas! I followed him for a lon time, and now he is my big insipration for everything in this hobby!I always wanted to build a legion army, but never knew what legion to chose, or what units to use, but in the last few weeks... In the last few weeks I was finnaly able to decide! It must be the second legion! It is a complete honour to make someones else's idea a reality, from Athrawes ideas, to a full blown army.I hope not to only make a army Im proud of, but also a army, that will insipre other people into the great crusade and the second legion! For it would be amazing to see more logs on the second legion, it would be amazing to see Athrawes's idea come to life in even more ways!(btw, you are a hero if you have been reading to this far) okay, that where the things I really wanted to say!To not get you guys bored with this log already, I have some models to show you guys!+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150301_150729_zpsizxynzqa.jpg http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150301_150746_zpstwhirwgm.jpg http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150301_150754_zpsk7eip2eg.jpg ±Pic captures of preator Alexis Xyr Drogim, Leader of the 4th chapter, and captain of the 16th company± Alexis Xyr was a reknown warrior of the 2nd, he was feared for his bloodlust and untempered rage, but was respected for his nobility and beaing able to speak his mind (sometimes very bluntly on noted occasions).His most known weapon was his ax, "thunder-jaw", a weapon that was a dark mirror to Icarion’s “Thunderchild”. Thunder-Jaw was an ancient force weapon crafted with superlative artistry and bound in service to High council of the Astral College. To this end, it has served for centuries as the ‘badge of office’ for the master of the Verrat.Alexis rose through the ranks quickly, but his bad temper had him inducted into a special order. The Verrat. The Verrat was a feared and a guestioned order within the legion, they were the so-called "secret police" within the legion, they were created to make sure, all battle-brothers in the legion followed the rules on psygick powers as stricktly as possible. If a battle-brother would fail this, and descent into sorcery forbidden by Icarion, he would be openly executioned by a Verrat agent, to remind all the brothers that sorcery was forbidden almost entirely.Alex is seen as the head of the Verrat, and with that, one of the most hated warrior within the legion. he himself does not care, for he sees himself as a noble warrior, who seeks out and destroys the people who don't follow the rules.http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150301_140750_zpsamd9x6ep.jpg ±pic capture of Onisol Xelur Drogim, master assasin and moritat, known to fight along the 16th company± Onisol's information has mostly been redacted or is simply unknown, most remembrancers are only able to tell a story of a warrior, who did not care about anyone within the legion, a lone hunter, who carried 2 pistols, and never spoke even one word.All that is known about him, is that he was probally the brother of Alexis Xyr, the executioner, and that he was the right hand of Alexis. Alexis himself is the only one able to tell about Onisol, and I quote: "Onisol is a lost soul, only kept in this world by pure love for his primarch, he is frowned upon on most, but I know out of experience. That any squad who needs help, would be uttely delighted when seing Onisol coming to save them, for he is a hunter, a murderer and a total engine of war"Onisol carries two pistols of unknown mark or.. Or actually what they are, some say he forged them himself, and some say he stole them from his primarch, the truth, like that most of him, will remain unknown and shrouded in history.http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150301_150818_zpsowuugqaq.jpg ±rare pic capture of Alexis and Onisol fighting together±+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+Okay, thats all I have for now! Please let me know what you guys think! Much more is coming! MUCH MUCH more!! Hopefully this is the start of a good log and a great army!C&C welcome and apreciated!!

Athrawes Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 This community never ceases to amaze me. Your work is looking great AO, and It is mystifying to me that other people would find the Lightning Bearers as enjoyable an enterprise as I have. But seeing your project log and the fantastic work put out by Algrim Whitefang and Coldwinter touches me and makes me even more exited about the future of the II Legion Project. Well I love the lightning bearers might need to do an allied force Kurama, if you do that I am without a doubt running a Siege of Madrigal Campaign weekend. Heathens/Hyaenidae and Depthcharge12 have already pledged their support. And with the looming creation of the Forge Masters Lightning bearers appendix and Campaign book, this is looking more and more like a reality. AO: Again awesome work, the painting the modeling and the personal bios all look very promising. Now, whenever another brother on B&C starts a Missing Legion log I always tell them "welcome to the lost and forgotten" But to you I say welcome to the Lightning Bearers.

Olis Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I got a warm fuzzy feeling on behalf of Athrawes when I saw this go up. It's a very gratifying feeling when someone likes your own idea enough that they want to pick it up and run with it.

Brother Dallo Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Teetengee, it took me a second to realise that you meant your take on 40k fluff, and not some kind of actual head cannon.

It was known for its experimental "v.7 fragmentation cannon", a weapon of new design that was designed for destroying huge swathes of heavyily armored troops, and being able to shoot it in the air as a anti air cannon. It was the favored vechile of Alexis, who loved the sheer destruction that this tank could bring to the battlefield. It was based of the old and favoured MK.2 rhino, and then upgraded with new experimental "heavy shield", this gave the tank excellent protection against plasma and lazer weaponry, but sometimes proved unusable against melta and volkite weaponry. The Storm Hunter was put to great use in the siege of Madrigal, where its anti-air mode was of unlimited value. It is believed the tank was destroyed when a space wolf contemptor charged the postition where it was stationed. +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Please let me know what you guys think!

He was a reknown warrior of the 16th comapny. He was not a psyker, but got the rank *Boarding specialist* through the sheer acts of loyalty and devotion he shows in boarding actions, leading his boarding party from the front, he was in need of a new design shield. The Sakura pattern shield was the answer, a shield rumored to be made by a long forgotten master smith of the Salamanders legion. Octalu is also armed with his favourite weapon, the power fist, a weapon of pure destruction, and in the confines of a ship, this weapon is of great importance, to rip open shield walls and doors. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/1426241942075_zpsoihfybh3.jpg http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/1426241966157_zpsf4ofz7yn.jpg ±Pic captures of Preavian Solok Colo and castellax class automata 025474 and 45748± Solok Colo was a great warrior, but also a great mechanic, he is not a true second legion warrior, for his origins lay on the world of nocturne, of the Slamander legion. he was a gifted mechanic, who enjoyed talking to his mechanicum unit then to other legionaires. His love for machines was looked down upon from his brothers, but nobody ever guestioned his loyalty to Mars, his whole body was tattoo'd with the cog signs of ancient mars. His weapons consist of the Raka V.2 Bolt pistol and a Yang-un vibro sword. Both his weapons were slightly modified, for ease of use and longer lasting life span. His backpack incorperated a experimental *cogno engine*, a machine created to keep castellax from malfunctioning or shutting down. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/1426241884967_zpstifp808e.jpg http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/1426241908039_zpsb5h7a88a.jpg ±Very rare pic capture of sniper master Exoda Colgis± Exoda was a loner, he had no friends, no hobbies, no nothing.

He was a very talented psyker, a talented master of weather influencing and bending the natural laws. He didn't survive long enough to see the siege of Madrigal, he was beheaded by Alexis of the 16th, for using a "deamonic spell" on a member of the 2nd. He was clad in heavy artoificer armor of unkown pattern, and carried a world eater fallax blade, a gift from Esca, of the 12th. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150311_150014_zpsiw8sqydv.jpg http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Asdrubael108/Mobile%20Uploads/20150311_150022_zpsvb1czb39.jpg ±pic capture of Navigator Atia Athrawii± Atia was a fairly unkown navigator in the legion, being one of the thousands who were send from terra to aid the legions navigate through the messy turmoil of the warp. Atia was used only once in battle, at the end of the siege of Madrigal, when Alexis's ship "the primarch eye" crashed onto the radiated wasteland of Madrigal, Atia used his powers to create a bubble of warp energy, to protect the 16th comapny from madrigals super dangerous rad storms. _+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ So that was the iupdate for now, at least what is finished, ALOT more coming, I am gonna place a HUGE order on forgeworld in a few weeks, so keep a eye out..
