grailkeeper Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 A new Max Spleenriper model. He is a blood bowl player but the model screams 40k to me. He even has the chaos cultist symbol around his neck. The background even refers to him being a cultist...

The whfb fluff had a lot of cross over with 40k; it was basically a planet in the galaxy that was covered in warpstorms. In the older warriors chaos books you could build a chaos space marine out of a hero; Albion campaign had 40k gear and the liber daemonica had a huge amount of 40k in it.

Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader, aka 40K 1e, was a self-contained supplement to WHFB - you could play it by itself, but it was also 100% mechanically compatible with WHFB. Yes, once upon a time they were one and the same game.

firestorm40k Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I just posted about this chap in the Heretic Astartes section :D but yes, he's crying out to be converted a little so he can lead a mob of Cultists :lol: tangoalphatwo 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370785-new-max-spleenripper-model/#findComment-5713467 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Tyler Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Blood Bowl isn't covered here at the B&C, but converting non-WH40K models to WH40K is allowed in the Forge, so this topic has been moved.

tangoalphatwo Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I’m totally down converting this dude to a Cawdor Bounty Hunter. Tell me he does scream Necromunda conversion Doctor Perils 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370785-new-max-spleenripper-model/#findComment-5713528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squark Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I’m totally down converting this dude to a Cawdor Bounty Hunter. Tell me he does scream Necromunda conversion That Chainsaw does look like it would make a mean eviscerator, and he does mesh well with the Cawdor Aesthetic. He'll need to be "purified" with a file, knife, and green stuff. ... That joke got darker than I thought it would. tangoalphatwo 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370785-new-max-spleenripper-model/#findComment-5713592 Share on other sites More sharing options...

INKS Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Looks like he'd make a fantastic cultist. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370785-new-max-spleenripper-model/#findComment-5714272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 A fantastic example of nominative determinism if I ever saw one. The first member of the Spleenripper family to actually rip some speens. His mum Marjorie Spleenripper is a bank clerk and his dad shouts at swans. Gorgeous model and I'll find a way to 40k it up - as others have said, he's perfect for 'Munda and would make a great cultist.
