I'm looking at options to convert the Indomitus squads.

 

So what you got? Does it work? 

 

What are you taking on your assault intercessor sergeants and why?

Magnets, to experiment and future proof.

Magnetizing the ETB Indomitus kit is a bit difficult. Just looking for how people generally play them before I commit to hacking them up.

Personally I like the powerfist. Good damage to everything, only 10pts. Thunderhammer is tempting for all the new 3 wound things.

Tough one, as you pay so much for his weapons. I think there's a good case for the hammer even so. If you're fielding these guys at all it's probably as one of the melee-oriented chapters. A unit of these as something like blood angels will likely be fighting twice, so you may as well equip them to the max.

Always nice to master craft the fist or hammer... fun times indeed.

[BladeOfVengeance]

Power Sword is a great all rounder and cheap

If you have the points a Power Fist

@Mandragola, I’m kind of interested in putting a blob of these guys with a Dark Angels interrogator. chaplain. There are all kinds of crazy things this guy can buff on the charge, including +1S. A crap load of chain swords at S5 and AP -2 sounds fantastic

I like thunder hammers with my wolves. Our chapter tactic balances out the penalty and I play against deathguard alot so having a weapon that puts down a plague marine is nice.

I didn't find magnetising the Indomitus guys too rough at all!

The Deathwatch kit pairs really well with them for the weapons, and I used 2x1 magnets in the torso and shoulders.

Gave them a little flair with a peppering of DW & IF custom pauldrons on the swappable arms, and the only real issue is some of the DW pads don't fit 100% so you need to pick the ones you actually end up using carefully.

EDIT: I have all the options available on my Assault Intercessor sergeants - power fists came from the Imperial Fists upgrade sprue, power swords & thunder hammers from the DW kill team kit, & the chainswords are their native ones.
