major higgins Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hi brothers, I completely redone my Imperial Guard, in the hope of a Krieg Codex I keep on in the WWi style restyling. And now a little bit of Fluf... Caledonia was a green planet full of water and green continents where humans lived for centuries unawere of other Human's worlds or even the existence of Ancient Terra. On its five continents, five kings rules over their people and occasionally fought against each other, but war on Caledonia was an exception, peace and businesses were the norm. One day though the sky burst of fire when pod after pod and shuttle after shuttle started to land simultaneousley on the five capital city. The Great Crusade has reached the isolated Caledonia. Those super warriors clad in their iron armors with yellow and black strips, quickly subdued the five population under the light of the Emperor God. Only one King over the five kingdom was left. He was the direct link with the Ancient Terra and the ministrorum, the other country were unified under his formely command. The years after the conquest were years of incredible progress and war training on Caledonia: The Iron Warriors found that those humans were incredibly brave and naturally talented in war, even if they lived in peace for century. They taught them the art of siege warfare, the perfect art of artillery barrage, diversionary attack, subterran assault and the fearless faith in the God Emperor. When they left Caledonia, they left a small garrison in the capital city in order to maintain the order and to grant the duty of the Caledonian's warriors. Than the Heresy strucks and tore the galaxy apart, and its flames reached Caledonia too. The news of the betrayal of their masters tears the men of Caledonia in two. The king and half of the people of Caledonia will fought for the Emperor and mantain their duty, the other half and the Space Marines garrison will fought them back. A civil war erupted on Caledonia, a war which tore up the green world, a warl apparently without end... 1000 years! This was its duration. 1000 years were passed when an expeditionary force of the Salamanders reach again Caledonia. The old green world was gone decades ago. Its green and blue continents were transformed in an hellish quagmire. A nightmere of threncs, new and destroyed, the destroyed landscape were filled with hundred miles of razor wire, minifields, human bones and bodies left buried or scattered to rot eveywhere. The two faction had fought each other in the only ways they knew, an endless trench warfare where a side tried try to overrun the enemy strongpoints, and vice versa. The Salamanders deploied four companies in order to stop the fight and help the loyalist faction to finally won the last offensive. The war was won, but Caledonia now knew nothing else than war. But this isn't a problem for the Terran amministration: its warriors were quickly redirected to fight the imperium battles. Everywhere the imperium need a force capable to fight a war of attrition Caledonian's troppers were employed.

They learned how to dig deep under enemy lines with their equipment and than emerge and threat enemy rear line. So three veteran squads with Hadeses https://imgur.com/LVfsOcU https://imgur.com/9sv1HI1 https://imgur.com/qgdIjkB The core of the regiment: 80 riflemen, most of them on foot, but a couple of squad sometimes ride in chimera to gain some mobility and protection when a rapid advance is needed https://imgur.com/xYoRJN5 https://imgur.com/7nVRkrj Rough Riders, useful when a hole in the enemy lines was open by the artillery and they are ready to exploit it to reach enemy nevralgic unit in the backfield.

I hope you will forgive any mistake with my english and some poor light condition of some picture. I hope you like my force which cost me a pint of sweet to be finished in quite few weeks of hard painting work...

WarriorFish Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The board will only allow so many images per post, so the latter ones are rendered as links. The others are fine for me - and what fine models they are too :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345521-caledonian-siege-regiment/#findComment-5039214 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfpint100 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I really hope that bagpipe guy counts as a banner. The sound of pipes emboldens the troops. Though as a medic would also be funny.
