7th millennial, III legion, the emperors children. WIP

[Supe robot gangster #1]

So. After lurking for some time. I've finally decided to start a WIP for my rather ambitious project of collecting the entirety of the 7th millennial of the emperors children. With bits and pieces of my various other heresy projects thrown in from time to time as well (these may or may not include a regiment of chemosian fusiliers, and bits and pieces of various other legions). I'm away from for work on weekdays, but I shall endeavour to post pics of what I have so far on the weekend!

Sounds intruiging, I'll be watching this closely.

An entire Millennial!!! Damn, that would be a sight to see :tu:

One question I can't find an answer for (granted all I have where I'm staying at the moment are the red books) how many crew are in the legion super heavies? I recall reading somewhere rhino and land raider variants have two crew each, but I don't recall numbers in legion super heavies.

To outline how my millennial is organised, I picture millennial to be 1000 fighting marines with accompanying officers and specialists. Based on that my millenial will have 10 companies, plus millennial headquarters. The precise organisation is as follows.

This is going to be one hell of an endeavor, I wish you the best of luck and I look forward to more updates. Unfortunately I can't answer the crew question for you.

Sicaran (not a super heavy, I know) - gunner, driver

Glaive - commander, driver, gunner, gunner

Typhon - commander, driver, gunner

Cerberus - commander, driver, gunner

Spartan - driver, gunner

Slaanesh IS the god of excess I suppose.... Good luck!

[Memento Of Prospero]

A more realistic ratio for the dreadnoughts would be 5 per company, as 1 for every 2 veterans is really high.

 

But then again, it's your fluff ;)

So. An update!

A severe lack of anything has occurred (5 month old son will do that to your hobbying).

However. I did have a chance to further study the most holy of tomes, betrayal.

I have discovered that I was way off with my millenial sizes, each milennial is approx 3000 marines. Whoops

Is there any interest in fluff for various characters in the glorious VII?

[Brother Dallo]

Fluff would be good, as would some pictures.
