I haven't checked in for about a month or so and came back to a cornucopia of offerings. These are some excellent bits and concepts here. I especially like the idea for the entrenching tool as a close combat weapon. That's, historically, been considered a desperate weapon of choice, and even modern day, it's not unusual for Special Forces operators to sharpen them up and train with them as an axe type weapon.

I'm sure some hands holding entrenching tools will make an appearance early next year. The first sets of hand/weapon combos should be released next Friday, September 26th. Those will be Laser Pistols, Axes, and Energy Swords.
The next Roll Call, for the Lykan Sawtooths, will begin the following Friday, October 3rd. More info to come on that in the coming days.

Our next Roll Call, starting Friday October 3rd, will introduce a new regiment called the Lykan Sawtooths. They are the perfect combination of tribal rage and killing technology.

Looks like the chain would hit the guard near the hand if it tried to spin. I have no idea why on this bothers me but I've been around a chainsaw all day so maybe that's why
Looks sweet. Lots of IG players will love that arm I bet.

I now love the idea of an Imperial safety brief before issuing equipment. The instructor would barely be finished talking about safety goggles and moving into the importance of double hearing protection before the Commissar would shoot him and bellow "The Emperor protects!" at the jelly that was once his head.

Very nice!
Although they are too feral for me - If ever I needed Fallout-Post-Apocalyptic-Raiders, these would be the sheznits!
...Sheznits - is that even a word?
Also can't help seeing facial similarities between the lower rightmost Lykan and G.W.Bush Jr.

Well, those could also be worked in, one poor colony that was not so fortunate, and that lead to the need for savagery to survive! I just need to deal with the cost per squad/soldier factors.

These guys would be perfect as some kind of Khornate infantry. I think they look really good. Definitely don't have a "good guy" vibe to them though. I expect to see a helmet head option though. These guys are begging to at least have some horned viking style helmets if not full on chainsaw helmets.
I'm curious what you've got planned after these. I think you mentioned having desert fighters in the pipeline and there were the fallschirmjagers as well. I'd love to see some WWI British types or some modern/near future PMC bits. A generic tactical vest torso, some ballcap/headset heads, and SMGs would be awesome.
