Quick question for you guys, Delvarus is described in the Dramatic Personae of Betrayer as Centurion, Delvarus Triarii squad, 44th Company. Do you think this means that other companies will have their own Triarri squads?

[The Nookie]

Well the Triarii were five full companies of men, but lead by Delvarus, so i'd think they'd all have their own squads and ranks all under Delvarus

'been out of the WE aspect of the hobby for a couple of months, but will update here when Brass Scorpion is finished. :)

 

Also:

Brothers of the sands will my Traitor Space Wolves be welcome here? We will of course swear fealty to the Crimson Angel

I don;t see why not, buddy! Khorne cares not from whence the blood flows, and neither do we. :tu:

 

Has anyone made use of FW hell blades or dread claws?  Are they worth getting a hold of?

Yes on the helblades and I dare say they are the best anti-flyer flyers in the game. I've been thinking of putting a dual heavy flamer claw contemptor in a dreadclaw lately and do really thing it is a viable option...

[Teetengee]

I recently tried a butcherhorde dreadclaw/kharbydis assault list. It was interesting, but I am not sure it really can be said to work.

The World Eaters Triarii is a single formation - quoted as "five hundred of Angron's best, led by the Legion's undisputed pit-fighting champion, under oath to defend the flagship." 

 

I doubt they are parceled out to other companies. 

[Flint13]

Morning guys!

 

It's been a little while since I've sat down and painted a legit XII legionnaire. But since I've gotten an actual decent start to gaming with them, I suppose they deserve to be painted. So I need a little constructive criticism. 

 

I tried to tell a little story with all of his wounds and weathering.

 

What do you like, what can be improved?

[Kriegsmacht]

Not enough blood. :P

 

I like the bare armor showing. Took a while but I noticed the right eye is dead. I don't know if darkening the edges of the bare armor would make it better to show that it was burnt or something(i'm not much of a critic :P).

[Relict]

Not his wounds, my dear lady. More like the wounds that killed the poor Raven Guard from whom our enterprising Legionary looted the armor on the killing fields of Isstvan V. 

[Midnightmare]

I like the 'dead-eye'; very neat idea Flint!

[Kriegsmacht]

Raven guard armor eh? Ah so this WE is me(circa 2004-5 when I painted my first miniature) in 40k. Yeah I tried painting white on black. :P

[Flint13]

Thanks for the feed back guys.

 

@ Krieg - I tried to keep the blood effects to wounds and the business ends of his weapons. All about subtlety ^_^

 

I wanted to try to see if I could believably paint damaged ceramite with the paint burnt or scraped away. That's what the brown/black edges are supposed to be. Suppose I need a bit more practice.

 

@ Relict - haha love it. Well I would assume at least the shot to the right pectoral is his since he's respirating blood from the vent in his helm.

 

@ Midnight - Thanks! I think I probs should have darkened it a bit more towards black though, to help distinguish it from the Gun gray ceramite.

[Teetengee]

I think that the bare ceramite should look more scorched except at the edges of the bare/paint divide to create that effect. Also, the white line at that very edge on the right arm might be more convincing if much dirtier or even black.

[Augustus b'Raass]

Yay! Flint is back, and with a vengeance!

 

What I like is the crisp blue, the superb white, and the dead eye idea.

 

What could be improved is the bare armour around the dead eye, which to me look kinda like a metal coloured birth mark atm. Does that make sense? I get that it's supposed to be damage, but the edges are just too straight. Perhaps you could add some more chipping to it?

 

:tu: glad you're back, Flint!!

[Relict]

Back when the World Eaters still had awesome, awesome armor...

Ah... Old timey is best timey. 

[Rage of Khorne]

Hey guys, I'm looking to get some pictures of my stuff up on here on Sunday but for the time being I'd like to ask some advice about my list. I'm running a 30k World Eaters army at 2000 points which will likely grow to 3000 points in the near future.

 

HQ - Khârn - 170

 

Elites - Contemptor Mortis w/ 2x Kheres - 185

 

Elites - 2 Apothecary - 90

 

Troops - 20 Legionaries, Extra CC WPN, Chain Axes, Vexilla, Power Fist - 320

 

Troops - 20 Legionaries, Extra CC WPN, Chain Axes, Vexilla, Power Fist - 320

 

Troops - 15 Assault Marines, 2 Power Mauls, Power Fist - 360

 

Troops - 5 Support Marines, 5 Graviton, Rhino, Dozer - 215

 

Heavy - Whirlwind Scorpius - 115

 

Heavy - Vindicator - 115

 

Heavy - Deredeo - 185

 

I did most of the points from memory so if I messed something up I left 25 points unused to compensate. I think I have the right number of infantry to vehicles to allow for the Berzerker Assault list to be used. Flint made some suggestions and so I've stuck to the Berzerker Assault list and added in a scoring Rhino.

[Fangbanger]

Alas we cannot take graviton supports, think it's just the iron hands

[Rage of Khorne]

Some painted models from the army so far.

[Allart01]

Lovely models! I am also a fan of Berserker Assault armies. Nothing screams "World Eaters" to me like 50/60 astartes swarming across the board.

[Rage of Khorne]

Thanks for the heads up Fang, I couldn't recall from memory but had seen them across the table from me so I figured they could. I'll have to switch out to meltas.

[Relict]

Sicaran #2 is now finished:

I decided to paint it in a slightly different scheme, so to set it apart from its twin (pictured a few posts up). 

 

And here is the 77th mustered at its current full strength. Next up: Spartan.

The Bloodspitters will join the fray! Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne! Death to the False Emperor!

[Flint13]

Looking good!

 

Do we get close ups too?

[Relict]

A little preview of what's to come... A model of this size and complexity is easier to paint when you do it in subassemblies. I added in some extra brass sections because I know Flint digs it. Ladies dig armor plating in general. :P

[Flint13]

This is true.

 

I'm also partial to grinding treads and superior firepower.

[Knight of the Raven]

The non-contemptor World Eaters dreadnought isn't available on the new Forge World site. It's possible it went out of production but it's much more likely they're simply reworking the master mold. Just thought I'd mention this if someone wanted the regular old dreadnought liek naow plz.
