professorjekyll Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 After playing other games for some time I got some sprues of intercessors and reivers cheap off a comrade, and with 9th incoming, I've decided to get back inte the game. So ... I've decided to build a 4th company army, as I'm generally an infantry fan (but possibly with some extras from other companies, eg the close combat knife-wielding reivers will be from 8th). Will post here just to keep motivated, so say nice things please ;) Anyway, here's the test model I painted up. More to come, waiting for a bunch of beaky helmets to arrive from Kromlech though ... Dracos, Bjorn Firewalker, Race Bannon and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracos Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) Beaky looks good there. Welcome to the Ravenspire hear on B&C. Look forward to seeing your progress. PS: Bjorn's right that base is simple but boss. I like the crackled red earth and weathering.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 The test model is well-painted, detailed, and weathered. professorjekyll 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
professorjekyll Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) The test model is well-painted, detailed, and weathered. Thanks! I wanted to see what I could do using oil washes and pigments to get a grimdark feel on a black base colour. So we'll see where it may end Edited June 7, 2020 by pinkmarine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
professorjekyll Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 So I eventually decided to go for a successor chapter, Storm Coots. Idea is to play as "pure" successor, but it gives me the liberty to change if I want ... Anyway, this is the scheme I settled for. (Sorry for picture quality ... dunno what happened) Dracos, Jaipii and duz_ 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaipii Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Really nice looking army you've already got! I'm really impressed by the Eliminators camo cloaks! What units are you doing next? professorjekyll 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
professorjekyll Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Really nice looking army you've already got! I'm really impressed by the Eliminators camo cloaks! What units are you doing next? Thanks! In fact the camo cloaks didn't turn out the way I wanted them at all, so I'll try to get my revenge later on On the table right now is, in roughly this order: * 5 Intercessors with auto bolters, sgt w chainsword * 3 Eradicators w melta * 1 Terminator chaplain (in my lore's he's the founder of the Storm coots) * 1 Lieutenant in phobos * 1 Librarian in phobos * 1 Venerable Dreadnought * 10 Infiltrators * 3 more Eradictors, I'll try to convert the meltas to heavy melta * 3 Eliminators ... and then I'm not so sure. I bought the first few models rather randomly, and then got a Vanguard box. And I just love the look of the Terminator Chaplain. I've yet to get a clue on how to play them, but my current idea is to have Eliminators and Eradicators in the back, sniping characters, and then try to go for early board control with Intercessors (assault and "normal") and deepstriking Infiltrators. What I'd really wish for was Reivers to get ObSec, I love the models and their backstabbing feel.

professorjekyll Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Here's the next batch of Intercessors, before oils and pigments. Edited February 21, 2021 by pinkmarine Jaipii and duz_ 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'd really wish for was Reivers to get ObSec, I love the models and their backstabbing feel. I would run a Terminator Chaplain as a Master of Sanctity with Wise Orator + Rites of War/any offensive -warlord traits and Deep strike him in with some scary close combat threat (Bladeguard Veterans/Vanguard Veterans/Terminators/Assault Centurions etc.). I don't think you can go wrong this :) With Wise Orator he can get the Canticle of Hate -litany off 100% with 1cp (Commanding Oratory) to buff charges and maybe use Raven's Blade -stratagem for Re-rolling charges against an enemy unit.

I've been wanting to get sth like this to work but the Master of Sanctitiy + Wise Orator wasn't on my radar. Very elegant! Thanks!
