Custom Warband.

[Claws and Effect]

I had an idea a while back when perusing the 21st Founding chapters. The idea being, what might have happened to the Flame Falcons that managed to avoid being killed off? Thus. the idea for The Immolated was born. 

 

So far, I have an army list that is serving as a "to-buy" list. I'm actually using loyalist models for the majority of the warband, due to the theme. Being the remnants of the Flame Falcons, they really aren't very corrupted. They're just on fire. I was planning on doing scorched looking bare metal armor to represent that. And I wasn't planning on actually modeling all the flamers you see in the list. I was just going to model flames on them and theorize that over the years they have learned to control and weaponize the flames engulfing them. 

 

I'm using the Mark of Tzeench so I can give as many of the units as possible the Icon of Flame. My idea there is that Tzeench has been subtly and slowly corrupting them, but they don't realize it. Their flames have actually consumed their flesh and they are essentially walking skeletons inside armor, that happen to be on fire. 

 

And yes, I plan on modeling the Sorcerer on Bike to resemble Ghost Rider......

 

Anyway, here's the list. It's more fluffy than competitive. My (as yet un-written) fluff for them has them forced to leave almost all of their vehicles and heavy weapons behind when they fled to escape destruction at the hands of the Grey Knights. I'm using the Renegade Chapters tactics to get the Advance + Charge ability to help make up for the lack of transports. 

 

Thoughts?

Flame Falcons are extremely cool. The only problem is without serious sculpting and painting skills it'll be almost impossible to do them justice imo
 

And yes, I plan on modeling the Sorcerer on Bike to resemble Ghost Rider......

Doomrider wants to have a word.

 

Anyway, I recommend these heads for your helmetless guys. It's what I use for my Doomrider conversion as well. ;)

I already had those heads in mind :D

 

I've seen bits on a few different sites that will make it a bit easier on me. Shapeways has both damaged pads and flaming pads. And I could sprinkle some LotD bits in as well.
