Instar-Nine Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I've been interested in Titanicus since it came out, and lockdown has given me a bit of a chance to work on a battlegroup. I've liked the Pale Riders since I read their novel. I also like that they're only partly described, so there's lots of space to individualise the army. I'm hoping to do an Axiom Maniple first of all, and see where I go from there.

Gederas Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Ooooh, Pallidus Mor! I love these guys after reading Warlord Fury of the God-Machine. I'm excited to see more of these models :yes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366223-we-are-the-pride-of-death-a-legio-pallidus-mor-log/#findComment-5594042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrypie Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Very nice, though more blue than I expected when I read Pallidus Mors. Keep on chugging, the maniple will get done :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366223-we-are-the-pride-of-death-a-legio-pallidus-mor-log/#findComment-5594069 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Instar-Nine Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Thank you! Yes, Warlord gave them a good amount of character. This one did come out with more blue than I expected. I love all of the 80s style patterned armour. I think I'm going to call the blue and bone striped panel a battlegroup marking.

Mandragola Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Welcome to the game. Nice to see another Legio taking shape. If you don’t mind me asking, is there a reason for the two shoulder pads on the reaver looking forward different?

schoon Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 My comments embedded within the quote below... However, I've given them with a clinical eye. If any of these are right for your Legio's story, disregard me and go for it! I'm thinking some of:Traits:Fury of the Fallen (fire twice at the price of taking catastrophic damage) - Fun flavor, but very risky. Could be very expensive for that second shot.Duty and Honour (use Adaptive Tactics every turn) - This one is solid. Take it.Strats:Enduring Gods (emergency repair without a command check) - How often are you really going to be able to use Emergency Repairs? Depends a little on your preferred tactics.Reactionary Fire (overwatch for titans) - Again. This might be useful for a "sit back and shoot" Legio, but less so for an aggressive one.Gear:Macro Charges (increase small blast to big blast) - Again, solid. Take it.Fusion Missiles (specialists in siege warfare, can give fusion trait to missile launchers) - Decent for Warlords, not quite so great on others.Gravitonic Stabilisers (mostly immune to quake and concussive, but can't use power to locomotors) - This is another one that's just too situational for me for the points. If someone in your group loves Quake Cannons...

Instar-Nine Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 Thank you, it's useful to get a feel for what might actually work in the game, I've not played much. I think I'm probably going to try this set: Fury of the Fallen (too much flavour not to use) Duty and Honour Reactionary Fire Fusion Missiles I'm aiming for a mid-range shooting sort of thing.

schoon Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Looks like some solid choices! Looking forward to hearing how they work in practice for you. (Just for the record, my choices for Legio Lupos were about 50% story-related and 50% game effect) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366223-we-are-the-pride-of-death-a-legio-pallidus-mor-log/#findComment-5595348 Share on other sites More sharing options...
