Legio Armatura - The Gorgons march to war. FOR THE EMPEROR!

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Some gold touch ups and highlights and bodies are done.

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Bodies complete, arms tomorrow then top part.

[Mendi Warrior]

Very nice, and super neat as well!

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Just arms, shields and rockets to go.

[Captain Semper]

Your progress is spectacular Wolf Guard Einar! Your Knights look awesome - a great choice of colours and an extremely neat paint job. Knights can become addictive... :yes:

[Brother Captain Arkley]

I am doing 3 more before my first Titan :)

 

Next 3 will be the Barons ;)

[Captain Semper]

Yeah, keep that Titan in mind! :lol:

[Mendi Warrior]

Eager to see the titan as well!

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Next 3 complete...

 

 

All 6 together, Onto my next 3 Knight (Barons for the other 2 sets) which gives me 3 Lances in turn I can use them for a Household force.

[Captain Semper]

Just make sure that you arm the Knights in the third Banner in a identical manner as in the other two Banners and the re-distribute the Knights among the three Banners so each Banner will have Knights similarly armed.

 

I’m saying this because, although Support Banners can have each Knight configured differently, Knights in a Household Banner must be identically armed (I think the rule can be found in p.34 of the Molech expansion).
 

Edit: I just noticed that your two banners have a different load-out already... may you want to consider some weapon exchanges (if possible at this stage). If not, you’ll have three perfectly happy Support Banners. :)

[Brother Captain Arkley]

I have 2 of each weapon, if I have read DoM right only the gun is the main point, upgrades don't count?

[Captain Semper]

Correct. Are the fists an upgrade to the chain -whatever they are?

[Brother Captain Arkley]

Just a Knight melee weapon for what I can see going by their card. I know assuming is never good but I assume it covers Chainsword/Power Fist.

[General Zodd]

Yep, either the fist or chainsword just count as CCW, so purely a cosmetic difference.

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Next 3 Knights for my House Terryn... These 3 will be Barons that will go in the others for the ability for Household formations or just support.

[Brother Captain Arkley]

 

Bodies complete... Will start on tops tomorrow.

[Mendi Warrior]

Good progress! Looking nice!

[Fajita Fan]

You must've spent a lot of time rebottling your paints 

[Brother Captain Arkley]

Some touch ups on the bone to do then all colours to be highlighted... Hopefully finish these 3 Knights in a few days.

 

[Mendi Warrior]

Eager to see the finished models, looking good!

[Brother Captain Arkley]

Right I had more thought on the name...

 

Legio Colara simply does not sound very Imperial, High Gothic or even bastardised Latin GW use at times...

 

Given their "Founding" is to be split from a Traitor Legio I wanted them to be about retribution, revenge, retaliation etc.

 

I am keeping their cognomem is The Gorgons (I have the transfers coming :) And if the picture I seen is as good in my hands I am very happy.

 

So I have a few in mind...

 

Armatura/Armatus - (A real Latin name meaning Armour)(It is also a link to Medusa with Medusa being a Protector/Guardian) It is also a planet in 30k.

Talionis - Retribution - Works well with the revenge angle of the Splinter Legio.

 

Any other ideas/suggestions?

 

My Traitors are called Legio Praeferox - The Ebon Bulls. (Will be Khorne aligned)

[Fajita Fan]

I'm trying to work rock, stone, and snakes together and it's not happening. 

[Brother Captain Arkley]

I'm trying to work rock, stone, and snakes together and it's not happening. 

Yeah I tried that too...

[Brother Captain Arkley]

House Terryn is getting bigger....

 

 

 

Will be boosting these to full banners and a big core of my Terryn Household.

 

I still have the High King and his main Barons to do but i like how I am going.

 

I will be doing the bases and transfers soon. Probably after my 4 Cerastus which are up next then 2 Polys

[Mendi Warrior]

Very nice! Beautiful household!
