+++ incoming transmission +++

 

This is Marshal Ricard of the Memoria Crusade. Brothers, the is attempt 853 to reestablish contact with the fleet. We have been adrift in the void for longer than I can recount. However, I report our mission successful. We recovered several relics from the tomb world. Once we reconvene with the blessed High Marshal our crusade will continue anew.

Originally petitioned by Marshal Ricard, then blessed and declared by High Marshal Helbrecht, The Memoria Crusade is currently pursuing long lost relics from the founding of the Black Templars and attempting to unravel the mysteries of the chapter's history. Marshal Ricard is piecing together the broken history of the Black Templars and keeping ongoing records of current crusades. The Memoria Crusade is currently investigating several tomb worlds in the Garon Nebula. Rumor has it that a great artifact was lost there....

Excellent stuff here! Lots of veterans so far in this here crusade! Makes sense since they all did a large campaign, then got lost in the void.


Thank you! More to come, I’m going through everything to see what I have.

Welcome back. I am absolutely stoked that you decided to rejoin this forum and share your models - many of which are now OOP classics - with the community.


Thank you Brother. More to come soon!

My Lord….

 

We have arrived at rendezvous point 611.73 and made contact with Marshal Ricard Dominus and the Memoria Crusade.  Reports are still coming in of their current standing forces, armor, assets and munitions. 
 

Have Marshal Dominus summoned to my chambers immediately. We have much to discuss. 
 

As you command High Marshal.

My liege! By the grace of Sigismund, the fortitude of Dorn and the Light of the Emperor, we return from our sacred crusade. 
 

Rise Marshal Dominus. The Memoria Crusade was believed lost. Yet here you stand in my chambers presenting relics thought lost to our chapter. Report. 
 

Blessed High Marshal, we have returned at long last from the Garon Nebula. In the wake of the last crusade led by Marshal Mefridus, we recovered several relics and artifacts of the chapter. Additionally, as instructed, we collected and compiled the great deeds of numerous crusades in these great tomes. Deeds from great crusades such as: 

 

The Golgotha Crusade led by Marshal Godfried, The Neurode Crusade led by Marshal Arthur, and The Vengeance Crusade led by Marshal Godhelm. As well as the infamous Crusades of Lastrati, Nimbosa, Armageddon, Declates, Geonide, Terra, Jerulas, and Vinculus. 

 

Current standing forces ready for redeployment and reassignment:

 

Marshal Ricard Dominus 

Castellan 

3 Chaplains 

Command Squad

Emperor’s Champion 

 

50 Sword Brethren 

 

90 Initiates

20 neophytes 

 

2 dreadnoughts

5 transports

5 battle tanks

3 flyers

 

and ample munitions and supplies my lord. 
 

An ample summation Marshal, I am told that more detailed reports are still coming in. However, there will be no reassignment. Your holy purpose of recovery our relics and recording our histories will continue Marshal Dominus. The Memoria Crusade will be reinforced and redeployed with upmost haste. You have missed much in your absence. You will be briefed on the Sangprimus Portum, the awakened and the indoctrinated. You ranks shall be reinforced with Primaris, additional initiates, new technologies in armor, weaponry and supplies. 
 

As you command my lord High Marshal.

Dark Imperium intercessors! Takes me back (feels weird to say, but they've been out for more than a half decade now). Some good firing poses in there. Took the time to file off their shoulderpads to fit BT specific ones. Glad to see you're introducing some variation there too.

 

Alas their standard bolt rifles means they're ineligble to be used in primaris crusader squads, as they only use autobolt rifles. Not that we can't use them as is though.

Yeah, I have had them laying around since they were released and just never did anything with them. I hoping to get my hands on some of the new crusaders soon, but figured I’d use these to get back in the swing of things.

So, thankfully to my surprise most of my paint was not dried up and I have been getting some brush strokes in. The infantry part of my collection it about 175 models. It’s about 60% complete painting wise. Some not painted at all and some just need some touching up that I painted a long time ago. Anyways I’m going through and painting and touching up. Here are some just finished.

It looks like you invested a lot of effort in your models, but they need to be photographed under better lighting, so we can clearly see and appreciate your efforts. I also advise you to photograph them against a light-colored background, to provide contrast that highlights the black armored Templars.

You are absolutely correct that those pictures are less than desirable. I’ll have to get my wife to help me get some better ones since I’m currently confined to a wheelchair. :(  I can’t do a whole lot on my own.

This has finished another crusader squad so 5/6 are now done. My wife helped me get some better pictures. Here is crusader squad 5, assault squad 1 and some of my armory.

If I can keep my progress up I’m going to try to get some full army shots soon….
