Thanks i definietly like building more than painting but this project is all about getting the army finished. im not a big fan of the monopose minis coming out of GW these days mostly due to the way they cut the mini for the sprue. Monopose minis are no harder to convert than any other im happy to take my dremmel to my metal Valhallans and convert them but when half a shoulder pad is built onto the arm or the head is missing 2/3 of it which is attached to its hair its annoying.

Gar was the largest Astarte Turgan had ever met, he was a great slab of muscle that towered over his colleagues. He could lift a heavy weapon like it was a bolt gun, he had seen him lift a rhino clear of the muddy fields of Galvarax so Tech crews could unjam her tracks. But there was one thing Turgan had seen Gar couldn't do and that was play well with others, and after operations alongside the Ultramaines at Hitchkoks folly Turgan knew he had just the roll for the titanic warrior. Becoming the 27ths sole moritat he was clad in customer made plate and much to the techpriests dismay Turgan had his Tech Marines forge him a powerful jump pack its core one of the engines of an industrial lift barge.

To do:

Both shoulders will be mk 5 studded pads. Studs will be added to shins and possibly helmet. Cables will be added to torso and sculpted onto the thighs. And both weapons will be replaced with Volkites.

Question is, Brotherhood of the... what?

They are the 27th chapter/brotherhood. They are mostly Terran born and those members of one of the many tribes absorbed during the khans war on Chogoris. I like to think that it was marines from the 27th that would go on to found the Rampagers chapter.

To the point of not taking a Brotherhood name and rocking Dreadnoughts. Very Terran indeed. Do you picture them being separated from the Ordu for much of the Heresy?

No idea as i don't know what ordu is.

My own fluff for them is that the 27th are not popular among the upper command of the White Scars. This gets them the least honorable of assignments such as tunnel fighting, garrison duty and mop up operations. it was often joked by several commanders of the legion "if you can't afford to loose the Imperial Army then send the 27th."

After the battle of Terra they were sent after splinters of the traitor fleets deemed too small to be a concern of the more illustrious brotherhoods.
