Callas Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 what is the Sapphire Scorpions shoulder pad design? Either one of the FW Red Scorpions pad in a light blue/turqouise if you feel the need to be fancy or a scorpions' tail (like the Brotherhood of Nod symbol from C/C Tiberian Sun) symbol on the pad in the same colours.

HellChyld Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 @Nephren-ka - I'm using teh 13th company rules as they make your average marine Rock-hard. With counter attack, true-grit and the scout rule it really makes for a beatiful infentary based list. did I meneton the 8 atacks that a normal sarge can have? I asked because the legio does have rules and fluff. while you dont have to use them it, with this being one of first legio forces being built seeing a Legio army following the rules made would be interesting to seen. also my Legio force's creation can be found in my blog as it progresses as well as the link in my sig Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90321-making-the-legio/page/2/#findComment-1044769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zbo Posted July 3, 2006 Author Share Posted July 3, 2006 @Nephren-ka - I do realise that they have thier own set of rules and background. I will try hard to stick to the background, but after reading it and then looking at the rules chosen to repersent them I felt they were left a little underpowerd. It is most likly that I'll end up using the rules laid out for them as I start looking at all the other things that make marines cool, Terminators, Land Speeders ect ect that 13th company just can't take. I will be following your blog, even if it's just to steal painting ideas ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90321-making-the-legio/page/2/#findComment-1044820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidKits Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Alright... here this is the better place. sorry its al ong story accidently started upa new topic and don't know how to deleat it but wnated to post here. anyway. I hope I can get in on this because it would be the first time able to but hey we shall find out I guess. anyway. Stalker Brother Lios ((Lee-os)) Panthera of the Lunar Leopards chapter. chapter badge of the Leopards is suppose to be a Leopards head with a moon int he background. but due to size and there not being a Leopard decal look up the Jaguar one from the back of the How to Paint Space marines book. this black mark overlays on a Fiery orange background with Leopard like Spots around the edge. I think it should also be mentioned that as an option on his armor depending on if you think you can do it. also add to his suit a Tail. its a slight mutation due to his gene-seed. hey if the Space wolves can get in with there fangs and furry ness and possible turning into werewolves why not this guy get away with an armored tail attachment with some blades ont he sides to use as a weapon. just a thought. His weapon of choice is a large two handed gunblade. if you want send me a message and I'll tell you how I made my one that was made from a Plasma pistol. though I have the idea of one for a normal sized bolter I'll have to work that one out yet. if he can't use that weapon of choice his next favorite are Lightning claws though I doubt you will use those. as soon the last weapons trade off he would most likely use. Is a bolter with a box drum on it. much like the scout bolter from the scout bikers just with an attached Underslug Grenade launcher if possible. I knwo the Grenade Launcher isn't usable anymore in game sense but it would make him look cool. he would weild that with a chain sword if he hand to. If you need anything else just pass me a message either here or on PM and I'll see what I can do to fill things out or anything. hope to hear from ya. *salutes8 good luck with this army.

Master_Aerethos Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 You know what? I'd like to be in. Brother Aerethos, reporting for duty. So, I just made this chapter up. But I kinda like them. They're the Death Seekers. This is their chapter badge: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/Master_Aerethos/untitled.jpg (If you don't mind doing this :P ) I'd like my marine to have a bullpup style bolter, and I'd also like him to be holding it like a normal person would when aiming. And a knife/chainsword on his belt. Oh, and running legs it it's not oo much trouble :) (I understand you may not want to do this, so if you don't want to, don't do it) Good luck, and keep on posting!

zbo Posted July 3, 2006 Author Share Posted July 3, 2006 @Master_Aerethos - I think I like that badge too :mellow:, I'll make you a bullpup if you can show me how to. I'm not really sure on how to do it at all. Knife, check, Running legs, I think I've got some. :angry: @Angelos - I do what a libby, but in thier fluff all thier libbys are made for the chapater. I.E. thier the only true Bolter and Chainsworders. Got any tips on painting the Chapater badge? Also that links isn't working :tu: @Cpt Stahl - nice to see a painted badge It'll help when I get round to your mini. Any tips on painting yellow that nicly? ~zbo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90321-making-the-legio/page/2/#findComment-1045140 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callas Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Quite honestly, as far as the libby is concerned, Zbo, I'd give him a pair of DeathWatch pads - suitably ornate what with the script and all.

Grey Knight Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 i believe that if u have kurgan in the army he should most definately be the leader, or if u have a mini you in the force he should be ranked somewhere high up in the command chain, just what would make most sense IMHO. If it would be alright and you need some more people for your marines could you add brother Gharaktzul(or just Ghar) of the Vermillion Knights? quick chapter badge made on paint http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y56/pointy_stick/chaptersymbol.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90321-making-the-legio/page/2/#findComment-1045179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rymeer Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 If you're still looking for members, I can loan you one of two marines, by the authority of Chapter Master Rymeer of the Crusading Lions Chapter, Adeptus Astartes. First: Brother Damilan. Armed with a Holy Bolter, Frag and Krak grenades. Second: Brother Veteran-Sergeant-Apothecarion Horst (Crusading Lions use Chapter Trait: Purity Above All, so all vet-sgts of the Tactical Squads are V-S-Apothecarys). Armed with Blessed Bolt Pistol, Narthicum, Reductor, Frag and Krak grenades, Purity Seals, Combat Shield, Bionics, Terminator Honors, Teleport Homer. Apothecarions armed with boltpistol and reductor 'count as' armed with two close combat weapons and gain the +1 attack bonus. For Medusa, the Chapter will be fielding it's 2nd and 3rd companies, who besides the usual Purity Above All Trait Training, have recieved extra training in close quarters combat. These companies will be armed with two 'special' weapons and no 'heavy' weaponry. Special weaponry will be two flamers to cleanse and purify the Heritical and Alien taint from Medusa's surface in the Devine Holy Lion's Service. Chapter colors are bubonic brown, bestial brown, with a lot of use of dwarf bronze over boltmetal. See chapter pics for comparison. Chapter Symbol is a black rampant lion (lion symbol should always face forwards to the model's front, or to the right for banners). Chapter Pics as you may be able to tell, the chapter uses a lot of bronze, since they recruit from a bronze aged culture. Also, from the pictures, you can see how a typical squad is formed. Example below: Lions 41 I will understand if you do not wish to include either of the above brothers. And will convey your acceptance or denial to the Chapter Master.

DavidKits Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Thanks a bunch man. Its nice to know his being accepted. sadly I don't really have a picture of his sword. but if you want to tryto remake my plasma pistol one I took Bal'keor's sword from Fantasy sliced out the middle of it between the out showing spikes and the middle to slot the plast pistol in. then greestuffed a little on each side to give some extra support as well as added 2 strips of Plasitcard up the sides of the plasma pistol to make it appear that if the sword was struke where the gun was it woul dat least be somewhat defended. As for the second idea. well you could make something like Squalls from FF8 easily I guess. just take a bolter. slice off the barrel and those two parts above and below it. then file it to make it smooth before using Plasticard the blade sticking off the front. as for the handle fill in with greenstuffs a bit to make it appear more bent instead of sticking like anormal bolter would fit in a hand, and attach it to a sword hand or something that has the handle of the sword exsend a bit behind it to give the impression this is a 2 handed weapon.. I wish I could send you a picture to show you better but I hope this helps a bit. As for his tail. its long and thick. the tail easily reachs the ground though he normally has it curled slightly just above it to not drag the armor plates on it on the ground. though sticking off from the end piece is 2 small curved blades. I advise using either DE Bayonets or those blades on the handle of DE guns to give the best effect. again sadly I don't have a picture but I'm working on getting some of my army soon. does this help? even a little? if not I need to ask if you could send me a private message on if you have YIM, AIM, or MSN. YIM and MSN is best then I can show you my Plasma Gunblade. on my webcam when i can use it.

zbo Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 @Master_Aerethos - Yes those images arn't working at all. It's not that I don't know how to make one it's more that I just plain don't know what that means. @Barret - Well no one else wanted him so he's yours ;) @DavidKits - I've got an idea at the moment. I've seen it on here before so I'll try and dig up the pics and you can tell me what you think @Rymeer - Firlty that was a cool post ;) By the order of the impirum only one brother may be enterd, your request must thus be decliend. At present me have no need for a Apothecarion so sadly me must decilne he also from servis. Brother Damilan has been acepted into the ranks of the Legio, upon his death Brother Horst may be acepted. May the light of the emoper guide you. @grey Knight - brother Gharaktzul added ;) @all - can't wait to get this damn camera,I hope you like the marines.

Barret Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Ah, once more I get the dregs... ;) A bullpup is a rifle that has the clip -behind- the grip. It's a cool-looking weapon...
