Marshal Argos Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Just a quick update to the background of the 7th and their Col. Regiment Commander's Name Brevet Col. Joesev Sunderland Regiment Commander Description After serving at Sector Command, Maj. Sunderland was offered the chance to take command of one of the Companies in the newly formed 7th Scansin. There was no hesitation on his part, as he felt that he would be able to bring his years of experience to the newly founded Regiment. Little did he know that the original command staff of the 7th Scansin was much more interested in looking good, than they were in being effective.Although he was not well respected in the Officer Ranks, Maj. Sunderland ensured that his Company was well drilled in the art of war. Years of experience had showed him the importance of drill and training, and he would be damned if his troopers couldn't fight for the Emperium. Following the disaster that was New Praxis, most of the officer billets in the 7th Scansin were open. It was at this point that Marshal Argos, pulled strings to get Maj. Sunderland temporary Command of the 7th. Once the 7th had been resupplied and was back up to combat strength, Marshal Argos once again ensured that the Regiment was assigned to BG82, and gave Maj. Sunderland a Brevet to Colonel. Regiment Background The 7th Scansin Regiment has been formed many times of the years. As with all the Planets within the Vallivar sub-system, Scansin re-uses its regimental numbers, seldom going above 42 numbered Regiments. As light Infantry Regiment the 7th Scansin has no Armor of its own, relying instead on CC Pattern heavy weapons. The Infantry are armed with Victoria Pattern Las weapons, while the NCO's and Officers carry pistols and close combat weapons. Shortly after their latest founding the Regiment was posted to New Praxis, where it suffered upwards off 60% casualties. This relegated them to a supporting roll over the next 14 months until reinforcements had arrived from Scansin. Additionally, this also gave the 7th a chance to properly train for it's next deployment. Col. Sunderland immediately threw out the old training plan (which only required officers to be present on Thursday mornings until 1100) and developed a plan that would ensure that the 7th would never again disgrace the Emperor. 7th Scansin is currently assigned to BG-82 under command of Marshal Argos.

WarriorFish Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's also great to see some Assault on Lutum commanders to be pledged as vow models, make sure you don't let them nor the Emperor down Out of curiosity has anyone vowed their overall regiment commander for this round. I see a couple of lord commissars and my company commander but none of the named guys. Have i missed one....? Just curious was all I was hoping for some in phase 3, but I'll take Brazen's Baneblade ;) It's not important, the only thing that matters is completing your vow of course...

Brother Argent Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Yeah was more curiosity then anything else. Well that and it would have been cool to see some of the afore mentioned commanders modelled. I would of, if I could afford the model I want for her...

Marshal Argos Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I've got a model for the good Col. but he was about 90% done when the Campaign started... Maybe we could start a new thread where the different regiments could be documented along with their commanders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilloom Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Back from the Warp... I, Guilloom, hereby pledge the forces of the 2nd Assault Brigade, from the 2nd Company of the XIVth Regiment of Kataris, under Lieutenant Harris Torhteim, to the reclamation of Lutum in the name of the Emperor. The contribution of Lieutenant Torhteim (count as Lord Commissar) at 80 points will do his duty no matter the cost, ! And he won’t march alone… 3 Priests (at 0 points ‘cause they’re for fun) will do their duty as well (after some more conversions) ! Oh, and an Ogryn squad has been dropped on the battlefield too… but not sure they'll be painted before March ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Argos Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 It's not much, but I don't see myself being able to get much else done this month... We'll see what happens next. "Sir the scouts report seeing enemy movement to left flank. Initial reports estimate Platoon size force attempting to move up between us and the nineteenth." "When was this reported?" Col. Sunderland asked as he strolled through his command tent., "You der?" he asked of an Aide standing nearby. "never-mind, You go and get dem der horse jockey's on da Vox and tell'em to be 'lert. Id appears the enemy believes we're not up ta da task. Oh, and let dem Lancers know that got troopers out der, we don't want one of our gettin skewered.

WarriorFish Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 That's great Blitz, but you can only have either the CCS and Chimera or Russ - pick which you'd like or we'll choose for you (the largest vow). Great conversion work too, looking forward to seeing them all completed - within the month ;) Well done to you Argos, a great completion there - very nice colours :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 A bit later than planned, although still to the proposed time I hereby complete Nork: I'll see if I can get round to better pictures at some point, he looks a bit better in real life! So far so good though, we're a third of the way through the final month so let's make sure we follow baz's example and get our vows in Don't forget, everything can matter to the final narrative so a particularly successful showing for this third phase will give the Campaign's end the suitable end - but the same is true of the opposite! I know the barracks is full of heroes, it's up to you to prove me right Onwards to glory comrades! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Argent Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I am making progress. Not as much as I would like but still progress. Hope to have Eddard and his men done by this time next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
