A Deathwatch Army Project

2 Polak:

But 4, all fully manned?

Well, thats Deathwatch after all, they fly in Corvuses :biggrin.:

 

 

Except for the poor primaris brethern :( But 4 fully manned corvuses is quite a lot of points, hence I thought you might run a couple unmanned as attack craft rather than transports.

I will be in future maybe, when/if Reivers will get SIA for example.

Shooty KillTeams are armed with fragcannons /hammers so I have to get them as close as possible, hence the flyers( in 7th I planned to make 6 droppods as well but I didn't get them ready in time)

Awesome full army shot!  They really look like a compact force of determined veterans, and the Assassins are a great complement too.  This is actually what I was picturing for my own DW until I got distracted by other shinies :lol:

2 Vel'Cona & Robofish7591:

Thanks!

 

CA is out and it is time to think about roster.:smile.:

 

With all the new Primaris prices etc I came to something like this:

 


DeathWatch Army :
Batallion Detachment:
HQ1:Watch Master(warlord, beacon angelis) - 130 pts
HQ2: Librarian(+ Force Sword) - 96 pts
 
Troops1: KillTeam Veterans(+ 2 FragCannons, 3 СhainSwords) - 155 pts
Troops2: KillTeam Veterans(+ 2 FragCannons, 3 СhainSwords) - 155 pts
Troops3: KillTeam Veterans(+ 2 FragCannons, 3 СhainSwords) - 155 pts
 
FA1: Primaris Inceptors(3x 2 Plasma exterminators) - 177 pts
FA2: Primaris Inceptors(3x 2 Plasma exterminators) - 177 pts
FA3: Primaris Inceptors(3x 2 Plasma exterminators) - 177 pts
 
 
Air Wing Detachment:
Flyer1: Corvus Blackstar( Twin Laser Cannon, 2 Stormstrike Launchers, Infernum Halo Launcher ) - 257 pts
Flyer2: Corvus Blackstar( Twin Laser Cannon, 2 Stormstrike Launchers, Infernum Halo Launcher ) - 257 pts
Flyer3: Corvus Blackstar( Twin Laser Cannon, 2 Stormstrike Launchers, Infernum Halo Launcher ) - 257 pts

Killteams and characters begin in Corvuses. 

Inceptors  begin in high orbit and will drop where they are needed(usually near Watchmaster to get rerolls)

1st game:
Astra Militarum
Mzwd9CDRs9A.jpg
 
Deployed Corvuses far in the corner. 
in the first turn - disembark the WM, fllew planes close to LRs, drop the Inceptors and Libby(who teleported WM close to inceptors and planes to get reroll aura). Inceptors shot 2 LRs, Corvuses finish Pask and all is left to wipe the survivors.
Lost all of the Inceptors and 1 Corvus in process thought
 
2nd game:
Chaos
 
TSngCGV5Cj4.jpg
 
All the same - Corvuses in far corner, then flew close drop all and shoot. 
this time wiped 2 predators and havoks , damage the knight(7 wounds).
oblys came - wipe the inceptors and damage 1 corvus.
Load up in the planes and fall back in skimmer mode trying to stay out of the range of oblys and finish off the last pred
knight moves in  - shoots the damaged corvus then gets blasted to the remaining 2 and fragcannons
 
then planes slowly move forward trying to stay out of  obly's and firing at them , followed by WM
 
Won!
 
3rd game:
March of Primarchs
Ce2Fxa5C8jE.jpg
 
Well , DW managed to shoot Morty , but heralds and Magnus were too much
lost.
maybe should take Culexus next time. :smile.:

Sounds like great games overall!  Your army was in good company as far as painting is concerned; really impressed at the presentation of the armies you played against.  My biggest gripe would be the double Primarch list, which I feel is somewhat dirty, but you seem to have taken it in stride.  Great job representing the DW in either case!

Is it really a WIP if they look amazing already? :P

 

Great work on the bold highlights as always!  I like the use of reds and yellows to create interest on each Dread without making them "same-ey".

2 Mr4Minutes & Bjorn Firewalker:

Thanks! :)

 

2 Vel'Cona:

They are mostly done but without bases, thus WiP

Same for the Veterans above :)

 

As for the bright colors( and contrast highlights) - I try to add them to make models stand out on the table. If they will be mostly black and silver -they will look rather dull imho.

A truly lovely army!  It's clear you enjoy the character of Deathwatch to an impressive degree, just by how personalized each model is.  What is your take-away on the pre-molded bases?
