Thanks - it's annoying that the bits service is over - when the new IG codex gets released I'm going to swap a lot of this army around - lose the Praetorians and make a load more Militia infantry squads. But I can't get the bolter trailers, wagon wheels etc....

For the steam wooden tank idea how about using the new Empire Steam Tank and grafting it onto a Leman Russ somehow.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

I'm both chaotic and orderly. I value my own principles, and am willing to go to extreme lengths to enforce them, often trampling on the very same principles in the process. At best, I'm heroic and principled; at worst, I'm hypocritical and disorderly. I am Red And White.

Errrrr........

lookS kinda wierd. Like a cross between 17th century colonists and 1500s pirates. Kinda funky. I like it, but dont think they look grimdark enough. But tau dont look grimdark and I love them. Bet he'll have trouble saying their wearing armour. I know Gaurdsmen wear tissue paper, but at least its thick tissue paper . Great conversions.

Your militia guard have given me one helluva idea......
methinks it's time to revamp the timbraxian PDF forces. For a fuedal system, they just don't look 'fuedal' enough.

Your army would be pretty slow on the attack. Have you considered 'customising' some chariots into horse-drawn chimeras. The classic Empire war Wagon would look brilliant with heavy bolters jutting out of it's arrow slits and murder holes....

nevertheless, may your bootprints crush the alien, the heretic and the mutant. FOR THE EMPEROR!!!

Many and varied forces in progress according to waxing & waning whims.

I may never finish an army in my life.

This is a beautiful army and has inspired me to do something similar with my PDF. I hope you don't mind me 'borrrowing' some of your ideas.
