I wanted to name everyone of my Iron Warriors, but after having painting 60 so far I have now scaled that down to squad champions and HQs. But my army has a jornal in which I do try to give all battles names and even a few lines of fluff.

Rough Rider with Boomstick






New England, U.S.A.

My Master of the Deathwing was named H'Tennek after our Necron player (His name is Kenneth) after he killed the Nightbringer in CC.

Edit: Dreadnought Brother Trollius, went 3 rounds with Eldred in CC and survived till the last turn when he finally died.

In your nightmares...

Lieutenant Jonathan Necronslayer (my first model... first thing he killed was a Necron, hence the name, promotion and ridiculous bit of fluff)
Dreadnought Brother Armenis
Tactical Sergeant Kahran
Devastator Sergeant Vendris
Terminator Sergeant Aviros

Only the Lieutenant has fluff, but to be fair, it's crazy enough for all of them. It involves him killing a Necron lord, and stopping it from phasing out. It results in an explosion. But the Lord was completely destroyed.
Don't tell me that's not ridiculous!

I'm in the process of naming them, though the entire 3rd Company have been given last names. Each squad is its own little 'clan' and each share the last name upon being recruited into it. I'll eventually get around to the first names... maybe.

My warboss is named 'Finrippa' due to his habit of destroying my friend's Tau vehicles and the accompanying big mek is known as 'Gobrench'.

They've both since been mostly retired by another Big Mek who I've never got around to naming, sadly.
