HERO Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 1. Total up the points cost of your character that you made from Part 1 of the exercise. If you haven't done so yet, feel free to make a character so you can join us in part 2! http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=258404 2. Now here's the fun part: See where you fit under this makeshift table: Lord-class character (characters with 3 wounds) Libby-class character (characters with 2 wounds) Sergeant-class character (characters with 1 wound) 3. Know what character you are? Good. Time to add some skills. What skills? Any skills currently available in the 6th Ed. BRB, any FW 40K-approved publication, or any current GW Codex. The only kicker is that you MUST cite your source! How many can you add? Max of 3 for a Lord-class character. Max of 2 for a Libby-class character. Max of 1 for a Sergeant-class character. How much do they cost? 20 (Lord)/15 (Libby)/10 (Sergeant) for an ability 15/10/5 for each USR (counts as ability) from the BRB Example: -My Wolf Lord comes out to 225 points without any skills. -He can take up to 3 abilities being a Lord-class character. -I want him to have Fearless and Rage from the BRB. Each USR costs 15 on a Lord-class character so that will add +30 points to his cost. -I also want him to have Inspiring Presence (Pedro Kantor's ability from Codex Space Marines). This will add 20 points for the ability. In total, my custom Wolf Lord comes out to 275. Is he worth it? Stay tuned for Part 3 of the exercise to find out! FAQs: Want to make your character truly unique? You're gonna have to wait for Part 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjyboy1994 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Chapter Master Airgahn Ferric of the Angels Amaranth. He carries a sacred power maul and an Infernus pistol. He's a lord class, so he gets up to three upgrades, I choose: Eternal Warrior (BBB), Ferocious Instincts and Blessings of the Omnissiah, both from the BA Codex. He costs a measly 185! ;):woot::woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calnus Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I missed part 1, but since I haven't found part 3, I guess its not too late to get mine in. Brother-Librarian Calnus (BA codex) Force Mace Epistolary upgrade Jump Pack Psychic Powers: Prescience (BRB), Precognition (BRB) Abilities: Hit & Run (BRB), Ever-Living (Necron Codex) Comes to 200 even. And if you can't rely on rolling BRB psychic powers, then he takes Blood Lance and Shield of Sanguinus from the codex. I take him on the tabletop without the Epistolary upgrade though, so he occasionally keeps the shield and lance combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykra Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I honestly wish they did have some sort of mega-rule to allow this kind of customization for a Hero character, perhaps in games over 2K. Sure, it would be hell on balancing, but I'm sure it would be doable and would just cut down on the 'Araghaghagha, Named Character X is just so B.S.!'. I'd probably take a Captain, give him Lucius' Duelist's Pride ability (Attacks in a challenge = opponents WS), Ragnar Blackmane's 'Incredible Reflexes' ability (for the invuln save), and the required Eternal Warrior. Make a true sword-master for the Blood Angels, while keeping away from the 'Rage-y' aspects showing a clarity of mind for sword bouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardanis Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I'ma hop in on this! Blood Angels Captain Power Lance Power Axe Jump Pack Abilities: Inertial Guidance System (SM/BA Codex) Heroic Intervention (BA Codex) Rage (BRB) Comes to a total of 210 points. Can't stop this guy from assaulting! I was toying with a captain on a Bike with Special Ammunition, assuming it applied to his bike as well. However, this fits more into my play style.

CitadelArmyGuy Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I changed mine. Librarian Nocturus Jump Pack, Force Axe (125 pts) "Shrouding" (BRB) 10pts "Stealth" (BRB) 10 pts Total Points-- 145 So he leads Death Company, who would now all have Stealth and Shrouding (one model having it spreads to the whole unit) so 4+ cover in the open with 2+ Cover if they are behind some Attack Bikes. Cheap, useable and really nasty, makes Jumppack DC totally worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I thought it'd be pretty good ;) Plus he will not take Divination-- he will keep Codex Powers of Unleash Rage and Shield of Sanguinius. So actually, Death Company with 2+ Cover Save in the open and Preferred Enemy in melee. Hilarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
