steellegionnaire85 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 So I have am interesting idea. But first some background. I am a long time Armageddon Steel Legion player. I want something a little more chaotic, orkish, and outlandish. I acquired 10 jackals an alphus 3 ridgerunners 20 neos 20 acos and 3 icon all new on sprues. However I am not completely sold on everything. This project will part with my steel legion. I plan on running GSC rules and models with heavy conversions. I am envisioning a mad max Themed army...won't be any extra arms or purple skin. Just heavy conversions. I want to use this as a small army for fun. Maybe become competitive I don't know. Can GSC function without the bulk of their 4 armed friends. I plan on using mostly neos jackals ridge runners for a 2k list. Also want to be able to use this for a small guardesque list. Also thinking of a few trucks and rock grinders. Haven't played since 8th so I'm not sure of the potential. I like the idea of GSC I'm just not ready to embrace the 4 armed hug of the new emperor...yet. any thoughts Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382853-4-armedforgive-me/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

steellegionnaire85 Posted May 6 Author Share Posted May 6 I will have to try this and find out. I imagine I will only have neophytes jackals trucks grinders and ogryns as abberants the acolytes may be hard to pitch... as just human versions Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382853-4-armedforgive-me/#findComment-6038697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tychobi Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Ogryn abberants would be a nice spot to show off your conversion skills. Gas masks for everyone! I love the idea of proto genestealer cultists that have yet to reveal their true alligence.

steellegionnaire85 Posted May 6 Author Share Posted May 6 I envision miners on a world being attacked and coming to the fight. As of now I have enough stuff to make between 20 and 40 neos 3 ridge runners 8 jackals 1 wolf an alphus and 10 plus aberrant This will pair nicely with my steel legion add some flexibility Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382853-4-armedforgive-me/#findComment-6038758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steellegionnaire85 Posted May 26 Author Share Posted May 26 So I need some help.... Trying not to use non humans I have a bunch of parts for converting. Plan on building catachans as acolytes using the neophytes as themselves with heavy modifications/ conversions. Ogryns as aberents. My acquired army is as follows: 3 ridge runners on sprues. 20 plus neophytes built but need conversions 20 neophytes on sprues 2 magnus build but need to convert A rock truck built but needs love A rockgringer built needs some love 10 jackals on sprues One alphus on sprue Plus tons of guard bits to make more of everything Orlock bits to help as well Do i have enough to make a decent list. I plan on selling off some of the stuff ive acquired as it doesnt fit my needs. Does anyone think it's worth holding onto for bits or selling 20 plus assembled two icon bearers built 15 acolytes on sprues 3 icon bearers on sprue Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382853-4-armedforgive-me/#findComment-6042724 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenith Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 There's nothing in the rules that says your models nee dto have 3/4 arms - as long as they are...err..armed and equipped appropriately! Cult acolytes could easily be any kind of insurrection squad with petrol bombs, magos a cult leader. Maybe skip the patriarch and purestrains?
