A brief backstory… A couple of you know what happened to my first Brothers of Battle Army. To recap, I custom made a 1000 point Brothers of Battle army. Completely painted and modeled from Necromunda Van Saar miniatures. I went to my local GW store and was confronted by a player who called me names and said my army was offensive. They threatened to try to get me terminated at my job and even got the GW employee to ban that army from play, due to it being offensive. I couldn’t use the army I spent so much time and money on. I was pretty heartbroken by this. I love the idea of putting myself in my army and I love the idea of regular people in power armor running around. At no time was my intention to offend anyone but alas it did.
I was spooked by the interaction between the fellow player and I sold the army because I couldn’t use it. But I kept two of my favorite miniatures from it, which I will attach in this thread. Fast forward to present day. I started talking to a several fellow players and befriended one in particular. With GW’s new Kill Team Exaction Squad, Imperial Agents Codex and attachment rules… along with my friend, I was convinced to resurrect my project… but at a much smaller level. I’m in the process of making one squad for my armies as a requisitioned squad. I finished a couple miniatures and am pretty proud of them. Again, I can’t stress enough I’m not trying to offend anyone.
What do y'all think of them? I used some forgeworld pieces on them. I like the slimmer Bolters. I have attached my WIP pictures and my two remaining fully painted miniatures.
