I, Wulfgar76, of the 75th Karshaki Dragoons do hereby pledge to complete the models posted within by the 29th of March.

 

 

                                                                                Karshaki Dragoons

 

The Karshaki Dragoons hail from the agri-world of Karshak located in the Ultima Segmentum near the border of the Ghoul Stars. Most within the Imperium consider this to be a frontier world and a stepping stone to explore deep space beyond the Imperium's established borders. Karshak breeds a hardy people and they have been providing tithes to fight for the Emperor since their world was rejoined with the Imperium over two centuries ago. Although relatively young in the eyes of Terra, the people of Karshak developed a strong martial system as they defended themselves from the numerous xenos factions that have attacked the world throughout its history. The Karshaki employ a combined arms force and this is evident from their structure from the brigade level down to company level. It is not uncommon for a company commander to have infantry, armor and artillery organic to his or her organization. In some instances even air assets are under the direct control of a company level ground force commander.  

 

What follows are a few offerings from a single troop from the 75th Dragoon Regiment. Kilo Troop or "Killer" troop as they are more commonly known are a combined arms organization featuring mechanized infantry, dismounted infantry, artillery and air assets. They are currently led by Captain Jakob Longknife.

 

 

Captain (CPT) Jakob Longknife (Blood and Glory vow)

Captain Longknife is relatively new to troop command having previously served as the assistant tactical officer on the regimental commander's personal staff. The previous commander was killed during the Pietros V incident fighting against a Necron decurion. Longknife is a veteran soldier but untried in troop command. His superiors and soldiers are eager to see what he can do. (I replaced the original figure with one that I like much more.)

 

Veteran Sergeant (VSGT) Dane Lysell (One for All vow)

http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt103/crouching_lictor/DSCF1033.jpg

VSGT Lysell is a tough old bastard who has served on the frontier for more than 10 years. He has survived up to this point through a combination of street smarts, ruthlessness, stubborn tenacity and being just plain mean. He is a tough and demanding NCO but looks out for his boys the best he can. He can often be found in the thick of the fighting to inspire his squad by his personal example. He currently leads a veteran mechanized squad as the troop completes refit and prepares to rotate back into active combat rotation once again.

First WIP shot is up on my original post, though it would appear that Commissrat will need to be a little patient as their loaned Tech Priest is clearly inept at image recovery.

I should go out more often if I return to so many vows! tongue.png A plethora of cool models that need painting up, good to see more veterans returning and new recruits signing up for glory biggrin.png

I will need a special dispensation, I can't upload the base model. The lap top is going into the shop.

This is fine walter, get the WIP up as soon as you can - but remember the final deadline for completion can not be negotiated msn-wink.gif

Hopefully this isn't too late! I've been without internet!

 

My vows for Blood and Glory! Couldn't decide between the Bullgryn and the Tank Commander so I'll do both! (Bullgryn is usually sitting in front of the tank anyway...)

And done smile.png The text covers both the regimental history, and drawing the spotlight on Torvek's role.

High Priest Torvek, is a serious threat to the Imperium, a former Junior Commissar, he was introduced to the worship of Khorne after the 88th purged a Khornate cult. He was charged with analysing the materials captured for intelligence and grew intrigued by the rituals which claimed to help bolster martial confidence.

Over time, he found that that the rituals actually worked, and bolstered his fighting prowess, and those he gradually inducted. The regiment went from strength to strength, becoming tightly disciplined on the field of battle, even if some of the savagry off the battiefield caused some problems. Eventually he came to the attention of the Exec of the Regiment, Major Tobias De'Ath. At first the major was horrified that the regiment had grown such an insidious cancer inside it, but Torvek's persausive manner talked him around, once Torvek appealed to his ego.

Eventually the rebellion in the regiment took full hold, those loyal to Torvek and the Major purged the regiment of those remaining loyal to the Emperor. Once this came to the attention of the Imperium, forces were sent to crush the regiment, and only a handful of platoons were able to flee.

Harried by a squad of Adeptus Astares, who performed hit and run assaults on various transports that were captured by the 88th, the fled into the only place they knew might welcome them, the Eye of Terror. As the penultimate transport fell to the remaining 4 Astares, the High Priest Torvek resorted to a last ditch effort, returning to an ancient tome of battle rites, he summoned a Blood Wolf into the flesh of Major De'Ath's veteran sergeant and unleashed it at the Astares. Stagged by the sudden assault from the daemon, the Astares were driven back, buying the Major time to present a better organised defence.

Unfortunately for the 88th, the Astares recieved reinforcment from trailing ships, and soon on the decks of the transport vessel became red with blood. It looked like it was all over for the 88th, when the battle was joined by a raiding force from the Quintos.

High Priest Torvek After 2


Squad Sergeant Fulk is a brute of a man, one of the first that Torvek inducted into the rites of Khorne and has served loyally as his personal bodyguard ever since. He also serves as the Deacon for the ceremonys, ringing a bronze bell, to summon the faithful to the worship.

Great stuff, completions and more! From now on no more entrants will be accepted - for all those taking part paint well for the Emperor and do not fail, the commissariat is getting upset that we've yet to reach the hallowed 100% completion so might start enforcing stricter discipline ;)
