Dark Legionnare Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I think we had this conversation in another thread but yes, you really should have. Yes! This is worth another like. Those style heavy flamers WITH chain bayonets means you have won the internet today. Agreed! Always major bonus points for chain-bayonets!

Cactus Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 You're too kind. If heavy support squads were permitted chainswords/axes I would never have thought to get creative like that. Inspiration comes from funny places sometimes. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363129-30k-hobby-chat/page/50/#findComment-5713017 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astartes Consul Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Oh those are lovely - really evocative of the 'look what we stole from another legion' vibe, rather than just the standard Suzerain models painted in AL colours.

Liked them on facebook, like them here! They're really awesome. I have had 8 suzys in my coils list since that book was released, but decided to remake them in late 2019...and then something came up... :P I really need to push that project forward now, your dudes are inspiring!

zedmeister Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Indeed, I'm feeling inspired. Did you equip them with pistols in the shield arms or left them as is?

Loquille Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Astartes Consul. Thanks, totally what I was going for, more of the, we saw how well it works, so we'll give it a try. Plus it means I can play around with a slightly different scheme. I'm tempted to keep the theme, of silver torsos and such for other units for Rewards of Treason, Like Palatines. @Excessus. Thankyou, I'll take all your likes :) I've had them planned for a while for the legion and just found myself wanting to do something different. Looking forward to seeing yours when you return to them. @Zedmeister. I didn't in the end, I spent a while fitting but I just wasn't too happy with how they looked.

Hfran Morkai Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 How would you fine folks feel about using a Grey Slayer Back banner on a Terminator Command Squad Standard Bearer? I'm not even sure if the logistics would work as the Standard Bearer will have a Grenade Harness (and I've not looked at my Tartaros folks for a while) but I'd like to make it quite different to my planned TDA Herald (which will use the SoH Command Banner). My actual squads use the standard Vexilla in the plastic boxes so there won't be overlap there.

My actual squads use the standard Vexilla in the plastic boxes so there won't be overlap there. I think you could definitely make it work. Don't have the bits in front of me to compare, but I think the launcher would fit just about perfectly below banner-line mounted on the same point. If not, can always green-stuff or bit-bash the banner pole a smidge taller. When in doubt, blu-tack it for simulacrum and eyeball-it purposes.

Hungry Nostraman Lizard Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 There was an excellent local Zone Mortalis event, with a turn out of 15/16 players! Hosted at Mythicos Studios in Jersey, and run by the wonderful Chris 'Mongo', it was a blast. The theme of the event was a Night Lords prison complex, which several forces were trying to break into to secure valuable prisoners or subjects deemed too dangerous to kill by the original 'benefactors', which saw the Night Lords bring compliance to the system and its worlds. With highly valuable astropaths and telepaths supposedly present in certain cells, many were surprised that the complex also had a large infestation of ambuls... amongst other horrors. I took some photos, but I decided to go one step further, and edit it to look like recorded pict footage.

Hfran Morkai Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Those World Eaters are class! I've just ordered two Legion Contemptor Dreadnought bodies as I'm unsure what's going to happen with the generic one with the upcoming plastic (I imagine it'll be eventually retired, especially if it either contains all the options or is compatible with the resin weapons) and with the blurry image I can't determine if I like it (I think I prefer the resin missile launcher but can't be sure). My plan is to mix my SW Contemptor with the generic ones to dilute the Wolf aesthetic as I prefer it toned down.
