I know that I have other Showoff threads, though I think that this is would be nice. So please, show your apocalypse armies. Those of you with Warhammer fantasy battle armies of Apocalyptic size may post to. I also want this to be a thread of Apocalypse Ideas. What I mean is that I want a place for people to bounce Apocalypse datasheet Ideas, such as mine.

Okay, for Ork players, I was thinking of a Savage Orc Tribe. This would be 500pts plus models, and would be about 500-1,000 points of Warhammer Fantasy Orcs. They would use rules like Figure of Mork, meaning that as long as the 40K Ork Warboss is in play, they would be Stubborn, and Unbreakable.


What do you think?

If I had a dollar for every dollar I spent I'd have all my money back.

Thanks. At least 200 Marines still in box (x2 battle company box sets). A few apoc formations, 3 or so dreads, a shelf of speeders. A scout squad, few vet squads.

Towering Hierophant Bio-Titan





Bristol, England

Here's the, mostly empty, boxes from mine.
Fortunately all I have left to paint is 24 gaunts, 24 hormagaunts, 20 odd ripper swarms a couple of mid sized bit's (lictors/fexes/ a malanthrope etc).
My Hierophant and my 4 Hierodules are still unassembled. I'm being good and saving them as a treat for when I have finished the chaff.
That should take me to at least 10K!
Hopefully I will be able to build both winged and a tunnellling swarms when the new codex comes out, so my completion date for this stuff is Jan.
A silly 2000 pt 6xtrygon/?xRavener and a 2000 pt 200xGargoyle type list should bump up the total to around 15,000!

Sorry for the lack of finished pics but they will come when it is all done. You will just have to be patient.
In the meantime look up my Tyranid army in my gallery.

3 tyrant guard
2 lictors
18 warriors

@jabbakahut, please start a blog.

even if you only did a box a month there is at least 36 months worth of the blog there on the shelve from what i can count.

sorry to hijack the thread but i think everyone shud start message until we get a blog

Ok so I did end up going and getting my stuff out (not all of the armies mind you) and I got to where I was in the picture and got tired of getting stuff out so I just stopped there.... Theres still about 200-250 orks not in the picture and a number of other random things Id rather not take the time to count

Indeed all the stompas have LED lights in them (And speakers for that matter... Gotta love playing Austrian Death Machine thru your stompa mid battle) and Im still gonna put some in the Looted Baneblade(Skullhamma) and Looted Stormlord... Army has a bunch of repairs to be made and I need to strip all the currently primed/painted orks so I can paint them with a new technique but in due time...

Yeah I decided it was needed heres a quick video I took of it... the quality is... TERRIBLE... I will eventually take another one when I can find my phone (some reason my phone takes reasonably good video)... Its hard to see but theres wires going through the head and down through the back. Theres a missing LED where you see the hole in one eye on the face plate over chest too...

Nice, there are some grade A conversions in this. I especially like the Skull hamma. I think that the Chaos people are good, especilly the purply one. that goes to show that you could be purple and all pinkish and still be terrifying.

Also, soes the amound of points in the Tank company allow infantry? I am thinking of making an army that includes one, and still has a large amount of infantry.
