also i remeber reading an article some where about how to use the FW chain axes. could some one please give me a link, i can't seem to find it.

 

I can't point you to the link but the chain axes needed lots of careful pinning as they are very fragile and likely to snap at the first sign of a TT engagement. My answer is to use a marine power axe with a FW chain axe head - like this:

The other option is to pin almost through the whole axe shaft which I found difficult, as the drill wanted to come out the side quite often, and then pin through the hand and use a cut off piece of the handle below the hand. Like this:

and this:

you could use a plastic chaos chain axe with some work, I was too lazy with this one

to remove the signs of taint :huh: :

I would love to see a carcharodons marine either eating the heart or disecting a shark, all the while yelling..."Curse you for being so awesome!!!"

 

 

Great work, keep it up, I second those about the band wagon remark, just enjoy your work, hobby, and game and leave those less fortunate to clean up the slaughter. :huh:

it finally came! unfortunately there may be some problems. it looks like there may be a problem with alphas valthex and i forgot to order his second assault cannon and missile launcher but those are on the way. also the power sword in one of my character conversion kits is bent so that it looks wavy anong the length of the blade. but everything seems ok. i'll post pictures later today.

i am not happy with this. my MK 5 assault squad was so badly miscasted that if you tried to put them together you'd have the ultimate in plague marines and one of my conversion kits miscasted. not to mention the broken korvydae and valthex.

 

HEY FORGEWORLD!!! CHECK YOUR INBOX!

 

EDIT: holy typos batman!

Well, I think you all deserve an update. Due to problems with the chainaxes I cant build my assault marines. But that will be solved soon. Also I'm planning on placing an order for 5 boxes of terminators and a land raider. Not joking, I'm close.

small and quick update

well my assault squad is now 95% complete all im waiting on now are my chainaxes. since i ran out of things to attach FW chainaxes to i decided to use zerker axes. i will bits order these when i place my next order which should give my army a massive 1240 point boost. i should have this order placed and received inside this month until then here are some pics of my new squad.
