Banjulhu Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 GW using it on their new what is 40k website is still a good chance to use the image to once more churn the pot and stoke fires of the flawed hope that a new set of Templar rules are coming soon. We have to keep you lot busy or you might end up crazy like those Grey Knights kids across the street.

Sword Brother Adelard Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Here's the quote from Max in full: "One thing that I thought was really fun was when i was painting the Black Templar we were talking about should this be a Sword Brother or not, with the red trim and the red icons, and because we were just doing one, we wanted one we thought it would be good it if it was like really iconic black on white like the normal... we haven't seen a Templar for a minute right, also I just really liked the idea that, all of these Bladeguard veterans are in all this regalia or cool kinda crusade relics and all that stuff and they feel like theyre out on crusade because they've been crusading for like 50 years or something, and this Black Templar's like, 'that's just a Tuesday for me, I'm not even that special, I'm not even a Sword Brother, I'm the same level as you guys, you top crusade veterans are the same as an initiate for me.' That's the way the Black Templars kinda look at it. I thought that was really funny. That tipped the scales for me, I'll just do it as a normal initiate templar." painting.for.my.sanity 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/62/#findComment-5676026 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And keep classic veteran units in red-black scheme. I've done something similar, given (despite being a Templars, Sororitas, Custodes and Inquisition collector) I don't particularly like the colour red. It works really well, provided you find some other way to distinguish sergeants, veterans etc. Personally, I've used white maltese crosses over the faceplate for those who would normally wear Sword Brethren markings - https://www.instagram.com/p/CG9gXb5HGwZ/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/62/#findComment-5676292 Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the full unit front in the latest codex the only chapters that had any of the new indomitus models on show were the Ultramarines, the 2nd founding chapter GW were hyping for the crusade rules and the Blood and Dark Angels who had their supplements made at the same time as the core codex and so had fully done armies ready to used in images. All the other images are of much older stuff or the units done to show off the primaris upgrade kits for each chapter that were done when the supplements first came out. As annoying as it is, from a product development and release point of view doing it this way makes sense even if it does over saturate the material with :cusss in blue Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/62/#findComment-5676298 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punchomatic Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I honestly do a mix of shoulders. My head cannon Templars mix and match what suite each Templar best. Generally confirming to Templar standards but I can’t imagine someone :cuss talking Sword Brother because he likes white shoulders or gold trim.

teu-teu Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 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. It is still red cross on black shoulder. The guy responsible of painting minis for the codex space marine had one model to represent Black Templar. So even if he knew that the schema wasn't right, it is the unique Primaris Black Templar painted for the occasion. Information came from a GW podcast but I don't remember which one Mmmmm Napalm and painting.for.my.sanity 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/62/#findComment-5680246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokugawa Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I think most long-time Black Templar models collectors follow the colouring instruction which printed in 4th codex. However, too many years has passed, and too many things were invented. There are no "official" answer to many questions. For example, I don't know how would a Templars primaris lieutenant look like.

Marshal Mittens Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 How ever you like them to look! Personally I think the white and black shoulders are hard to beat, look wise, regardless of rank. They are just Iconic and it's the look most had in the beginning. A few special ones in red or with a checker pattern or the like is nice too though, as the individuality of the Templars is one of the draws for me, personally. I do try and limit my palette to black, reds, whites, and a little yellow, in addition to the leather colors.

Medjugorje Posted March 19, 2021 Author Share Posted March 19, 2021 but again not in Red although he is a sword brother. For me its not a problem because my Knights are painted in the same colors as this example. Another thing we have to discuss on our roundtable my Knights. Our enemy we fought back then when we were released the first time, the Dark Eldar will have a stratagem to hurt our devot push a lot. Vects Agents changed their intrigues behaviour. "Vect" has changed from denying one stratagem to make it pricier for the whole game --> means that Devot push, Transhuman physiology or Will of the emperor will cost 2CP instead of one the entire game Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/62/#findComment-5680598 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Kraskor Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Thinking of another use for Devout Push. For melta weaponry, "within half range", does that include half range exactly? So 6" for meltas, combi-meltas etc. Because then you could deep strike some firstborn melta in (however you like, drop pod, jump pack, even strategic reserves?), set up 9" away, pop Devout Push and get to 6". Can you now use the enhanced damage on the melta?
