Remus Ventanus. Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I don't think the Dark Angels would have much mkIV - the ultras could because they have the Veridia forge, as well as looking better in it haha I think there's an unspoken rule that if the aesthetic matches the legion, then they'll have that mark of armor. My lovely Dangels would be stuck with mkII/III because of being very secular from the rest of the fleets as well as having a huge competition with Horus and his golden boys. I couldn't see Horus directing any of the new shiny bits towards the Dark Angels because of his standing male genitilia measuring match with the Lion Unless somehow the Lion used his superior strategery and logistical skills to obtain some units. The 1st legion would likely be in possession of more archaic armor patterns and handcrafted ones from Mars before the process became mass produced. But again, this is all the ravings of a fanboy and could all change Hmm you may be right about the DA. And i guess the ultras had lots of praetor, which is basically mk 4. Im sure all the legions had lots of mk 2 still. And i think ultras look best in mk 2! http://i.imgur.com/oxaMPPe.jpg Courtesy of fire golem Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Could it be possible they would make a box mixing MK II and III? I mean, its basically the same suit of armor just with extra frontal armour, its not that far fetched, is it? 5 of each or something like that.

DuskRaider Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Every Legion had a mix of all armour, with emphasis on a certain suit at times. All had Mk. II, which would be the most common. Mk. III would have been more common in the Siege and Heavy Assault Legions, while the others would have used it strictly for specialist Squads like Breachers. Assault Legions would most likely favor Mk. II and IV. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135591 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remus Ventanus. Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 What im doing is just equipping my veterans in mk 2, the line marines in mk4/praetor, and specialists in mk 3. The plastic box of mk 4 will really help with the basic line marines and will allow me to buy more praetor Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 If/when the plastics come out, my plan is to make half squads with them :) Â The other half I can fill out wit the legion upgrade sets.

KBA Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Yeah, regardless of fluff and everything else, I think it's safe to say most legions on the board will be getting a heavy shot of MK IV armor once the plastics hit Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironwithout Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I must admit I'm glad that I already have 40 mk3 marines.

Balthamal Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I can live with PA/terms being done in plastic. Specialist units per legion should stick with FW however. Yeah they'll be more expensive (just look at the suzerain invictarii) but my god aren't they worth it. Â That being said, ANY move to take the books rules away from FW will have the mob replete with pitchforks and torches banging at the gates, me foremost among them. Let's see if someone within GW possesses the slightest bit of common sense to recognise the gold mine they're sitting on and to leave it progress naturally Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I think the Heresy Boat has past the test of the GW Hurricane. Unbound didn't find its way into 30K (has it?), so I'm thinking the FW guys represent what GW used to be: the company that held the rules, fluff and minis hand in hand - not putting all eggs into one basket. I believe whatever becomes of the plastic GW heresy stuff will remain compatible but apart from what FW is doing.

Charlo Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I actually sorta hope we get a decent, bloatless ruleset to go with these minis. Â Not as much as AoS (set to wound rolls? Pfft) but a little less mad than current 40k, but who knowsm Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4135959 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remus Ventanus. Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I really hope there are no rules with it. It will just give people an excuse not to get the much better FW rules, and no way I'm not playing FW rules Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4136181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Thankfully HH has it's own detachments/alilies matrix which means we can cheerfully ignore the one in the 40kBRB Â Given that they've gone out of their way in Tempest to make clear what's legal and what isn't says a lot about how much autonomy FW seem to wield regarding rules/game play.

Dantay VI Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I wonder if the plastics release might coincide with the 30K tournament at Warhammer World in October.

Reyner Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 40k would be a lot less convoluted if they cut down on allies and detachment types... This. I hate the whole detachments thing, it just feels annoying to have little bits and pieces from different armies. Oh so your Skitarii are borrowing some drop pods from your Flesh Tearers? Sure that makes sense, especially when they turn to puddles of oil and mashed machine parts when they land. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311482-plastic-heresy-photos/page/8/#findComment-4136227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
depthcharge12 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 So I heard someone mention on another forum that August 15th is labeled as a "red date"....so that extrapolates to mean something big is going to be released within two Saturday's. Â If we've already seen the first plastic sprue up and running, we'll likely see the second part here this week if our Bothans haven't been found.

Remus Ventanus. Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 One thing i do hope is that GW makes imperial army in plastic. Truthfully that may be more beneficial to me personally.

I have always wanted an imperial army detatchment to go along with my XIII I'm hoping FW finally makes some models for the Imperial Militias and cults in the HH. It's fun to mess around with models and all, but I can't be bothered converting 100 miniatures...

Kharnfest Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 They said their Vraks stuff is meant to do Chaos cults. Honestly you could really do whatever models wise.

GrandMagnus Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Ive always liked the DKoK grenadiers, they would make an awesome militia unit for legions such as Iron Warriors or Death Guard.
