Sword Brother Adelard Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 They do put the newbies into Phobos, but every Primaris marine in the chapter can deploy in Phobos to maintain flexibility.

Medjugorje Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 thats what I mean. Maybe the BT just put the more experienced ones into this armor like in 4th edtion. But we dont know it yet. I hope in the new Supp such things will be worked out.

redmapa Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) I would have prefered him remain faceless, personally Ive always imagined him bald and with a darker complexion like Helbrecht so Im gonna keep thinking of him that way because the official one looks too generic for me.

Medjugorje Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) I like the "kind eyes" Richard Boylan style too. But it seems he is very young at this time. I like the idea that this is the current time line face where he is older. Grimaldus is very young at Helsreach, he was the youngest Sword Brethren ever recorded and not for long Reclusiarch when he he fought on helsreach.

Grimaldus is very young at Helsreach, he was the youngest Sword Brethren ever recorded and not for long Reclusiarch when he he fought on helsreach. he's still over 200, he mentions it upon the death of one of the Templars at the docks. As for my thoughts, I don't like this artwork's portrayal of him. I would have preferred him to have a shaven head; the crew cut is too standard, too "soldier" for me.

SirJyo Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Nothing about it speaks Templar, I'm gonna steer clear of this one. Shame since hardcover hellsreach sounds nice. Hope they don't re-use this art in the supplement.

Marshal Wolfhart Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 to be honest... I like it. there's no shame there, taste is subjective and everyone is entitled to their own. Which clearly makes you an abhorrent abomination for liking sucha disgrace that dares to claim the title of artwork. I'm kidding ofc. Or am I?

Brother Kraskor Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) Reiver Lt & a Chaplain with Vow of Retribution - is there anything in it? Or is morale too tame for it to be properly effective. Could add Fervent Acclamation to enhance range of both auras, so at 9" you're -2 Ld and 6" you're -4. Means they'd have to get in the thick of it. Edit: Add on the fear WL trait, now enemy units are at -5 Ld and failing attrition on 2s. If you could get these two in amongst an enemy formation, take a couple casualties off each unit, suddenly they're failing Ld on 2s (Ld 8 MEQ example) and then losing one model and an additional 1/3rd of the unit without any kind of save allowed, completely bypassing any shenanigans.

Valdr Fell-fist Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Afraid to say that’s old news brother, it caused quite a bit of uproar here last year but if I remember correctly the painter said that he’d painted it like that so that it was more recognisable as a Black Templar to the majority of the hobbyists out there, not as a retcon to our glorious Sword Brothers colours. painting.for.my.sanity 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/61/#findComment-5675889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
painting.for.my.sanity Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 GW actually went a painted a primaris marine in Templar colours. For those in the never ending war of "What is the right shoulder pad colours?" it seems black and red for veterans is no longer in favour. Afraid to say that’s old news brother, it caused quite a bit of uproar here last year but if I remember correctly the painter said that he’d painted it like that so that it was more recognisable as a Black Templar to the majority of the hobbyists out there, not as a retcon to our glorious Sword Brothers colours. The model was painted by Max Faleij - the lack of Sword Brethren colours on this model has been discussed in a couple of WarComm interviews with him - the long and the short of it was that they painted him black and white a) because it'd be more recognisable to those new to the hobby and b) that Templars probably had a whole lot more marines in that sort of kit going about crusading, and that many of them wouldn't have achieved the rank of Sword Brother yet. I remember him joking around saying something to the effect of "You're charging around with a relic sword beating up enemies of the Imperium? That makes you the best of the best in your chapter? Oh, cool, sounds like a Tuesday for us [black Templars]". Exactly as Valdr writes, I don't think Sword Brethren are going anywhere anytime soon - sounds like there's still plenty of appreciation for them there, they just chose not to paint one on this instance.
