Is there any one that has a full chapter? I would love to see some photos of this. I want to start making a full chapter of BT. Any pointers?

Well SInce the majority of Souldrinkers have been killed do to infighting and war with the Imperium, Necrons, and Orks. I might consider myself as having the entire chapter, but it's closer in size to a full company. 3 Full Tac Squads 2 Assault Squads 2 Terminator Squads 1 Assault Terminator Squads, 2 Full Sternguard, 2 Devastator Squads 2 Scout Squads... Termi Librariran, Power Armor Librarian, termie Chaplain, 2 captains, Command Squad, Techamarine and Retinue, 4 Scout Bikes...
2 Rhinos, 2 Drop Pods, 2 Landspeeders, 2 Land Raiders, A Storm raven, 6 Dreadnoughts in their various forms,

And yes you will buy a S*$t ton of marines. Expect to spend thousands of dollars. The amount I spent on my marines comes in somewhere around 1500-2000 USD. This of course does not count paint, glue or TIME. You have a daunting task ahead of you.

Here is an example:

-@ stonned_astartes: Yes i would love to see your list.

- @ filbert: Thanks for the photo. That gives me a nice idea of what i'm thinking of doing.

Is there a list of the BT full chapter? I'm hoping to get this dun by like the end of December with any luck.

You might want to try tracking down a 3E SM codex. They have the entire Ultramarines chapter on the inside of the front cover. I would post mine but I don't have access to a scanner at the moment.

Im pretty sure GW has published a codex (or even 2) with a picture of a full chapter of Ultramarines inside. Personally I am a little over halfway to having a full strength company of BA's.

BT = Black templars?

Did you know these are not following the 1000 marines ( in reality 1250 or so ) guideline?
Only helbrecht knows how many BT's they got, and the inquisition only found around 6-7000 of them....

Looking forward to pics of several thousand space marines.

OtoH, codex loving chapters would have 9 companies a 100 marines, a scout-company and specialists like officers, chaplains, librarians, techmarines, apothecaries, lots of vehicles to transport them all, etc etc.

To give you an idea of the size of a 1000 marines and vehicles, let me show you an assembled force of multiple armies at this size:

The full list from the space marine codex 3rd Edition costs several grand if you but all the forge world vehicles (Eg, Thunder hawks)

-@1hadhq: thank you so much for showing me the photo. it gives me a good idea of what my army will look like when i'm done. I should have a battle company by the end of next mouth. I think thats the best way to go about making a chapter. 1 battle company at a time.

-@Quelles, Element206 & pobble9: I knew i have seen the photo before. Thanks for letting me know where i can find it. Yes the cost is going to be some what high. But i'm not big on the Thunder Hawks. (never liked how they look. Drop pods are better)
