Mordian Glory Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Quick question, If I use the Black Templar Upgrade kit to convert my tacticals to crusaders does that qualify for bonus/conversion points? The reason I ask is the Blood Angels are able to buy right out the box Blood Angel Tactical Marines but we have to spend an extra £20 to make Crusaders, so it would balance things out a bit as we have to spend more money to get our guys.

Acebaur Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 If you have to do any kind of cutting or sanding to make those bitz fit with he tactical marines(which I know you do for the torsos) then yes that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schlitzaf Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I as Marshall Schlitzaf of Dalthus Crusade, lest I be found wanting, will vow to reinforce our great chapter, the Black Templars before 2399 UTC March 5th, 2018, by 22 Power with 1 10 Man Crusader Squads of (6-4)** 1 7 Man Intercessor Squad*. With these pictured sprews and Grey Knight Terminator Legs. I shall not fail http://i.imgur.com/3BO9AbQ.jpg *Its gonna be to actually 4 Man Intercessor Squad with AutoRifles & Sgt w/ PowSword&Pistol and two BoltRifle Intercessors. But a two man Intercessor Squad isn’t legal. **Also the Crusader Squad is 6-4 because that is my normal Rhino Firefight Squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mordian Glory Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Greeting Brothers, I have decided to really unleash my ZEAL and increase my Vow! Instead of doing 2x 7 man crusader squads I will do 5! my reaffirmed vow is below: I Mordian Glory rise to the Troops challenge of Blood & Zeal and vow to build 5 Crusader Squads (each with 5 initiates a sword brother and a neophyte) for a combined total of 60 power level on or before 2359 UTC March 5th, 2018. Success will bring honour to the Black Templars Faction, whilst FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION I have 2x 10 man squads of Mk 4 marines, an old 10 man tactical squad and a scout squad. I also have the bits from 3x tactical squads, command squad and2x templar upgrade kits (I have another upgrade kit on the way from GW). So far I have built 2 of the squads. Each Initiate + Sword Brother has multiple parts from the upgrade kit used on them and the neophytes have had a head swap with Tempestus Scions. Acebaur, can you let me know if the level of bits used qualifies for juicy bonus points. If not I have plenty more bits I can cut and add to each guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halandaar Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 -=Vow Complete=- Some pre-undercoat shots so it's a bit easier to see what's been done; Crusader Squad 1 Crusader Squad 2 Neophyte Head swaps Pretty much every single model qualifies as a kitbash, with parts used from the following kits scattered across the two squads; Tactical Squad, MKIV Tacticals, Assault Squad, Sternguard Veterans, Vanguard Veterans, Dark Angels Upgrade, Black Templars Upgrade, Ravenwing Knights, Death Company, Command Squad. The only models that required actual converting (i.e. cutting/filing) were the Neophytes (to make the astartes-sized heads fit) and anything with a Black Templars tabard, which don't naturally fit with the newer tactical kits.

Sword Brother Adelard Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I Brother Adelard, rise to the Troops challenge of Blood & Zeal and vow to build 1 Crusader Squad for a combined total of of 5 PL on or before 2359 UTC March 5th, 2018.

Mordian Glory Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Vow Complete! 5x 7 man crusader squads completed for 60 power level + bonus points! Each squad member has been converted/kitbased it one way or another. I went through 2 and a half Templar upgrade kits and combined parts from the tactical marines, mkIV marines and scout squad box sets to ensure that every marine is unique. Every Neo has had a head swap with tempestus scions heads and also recieved additional grenades and putiry seals. I have a tonne of pics but B&C wont let me upload them all. Will do a second post later with close upsof each squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Wolfhart Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Very inspiring Mordian, your effort is to be recommended! I just got done cleaning bits, tomorrow should see me finished, too. Onwards Brothers, ever onwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Wolfhart Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Vow complete! Edit: Considering conversions, there was a lot of filing and cutting to get the BT upgrade kit to fit and the handswap for the combi plasma, if that is enough to score bonus points for the chapter... ;) Otherwise i'm not mad either, was nothing spectacular after all :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Mine are built! All ready for their date with the spray can tomorrow morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Vow Complete, Praise be Brothers! That's 5PL base, some conversion work done on the Templar upgrade torsos and it took a little cutting to get the upgrade sword on that angle. Also, I think I deserve a bonus point for spilling actual blood in my zeal to destroy some of Guilliman's sons to build these loyal crusaders!
