Cool I got horribly confused.

No troubles, I could've made it clearer in fairness.
If you need any advice on an Air Cav force (So long as it's Vietnam based) PM me, I'll help out as much as I can!

(My Specailty is the 7th)

Yea cool dude I used them for the first time a couple of days ago in an Apocalypse game their Valk came in reserve stormtroopers on board tried to push through heretic long range ack ack and ended up crashing it was all black hawk down. lol Crimson Raven assault Terminators forced through to the crash site secured the area orbital bombardments blasted the crap out of everything not nailed down.

In the end the Imperium lost massacre plus only one objective to Chaos/Orks 3 it may have been because I needed to push through a heavily urbanised area.But the list definately needs looking at and I do need some advice at force composition/background etc etc so would be greatly appreciated.

thanks again dude PM pending..

@ Pimpalotz
Now, what you need to do before you fly any troops in, is neutralize ack-ack. Bombard it, Demo charge it, or just blow the living crap outta it, and you'll have a nice happy flight =)

Yea thats why Im building the 6th deep strike ops unit a Catachan/Cadian trained outfit that deals with problems that artillery cant dig out.. they will be inserted via grav chute to problem areas that the army have problems clearing their first official mission will be to silence Orkimedes mega flakka cannons (I smell a kill team mission) before what remains of the Chrybdis Crusade army moves in on Ahrimans position.

Some latest news from the front following the battle for kings township.

Latest tactical augeries suggest that Ahriman is digging out a Necron Tomb he has thousands of human slaves and Ork Slaves toiling endlessly many POWs including the Strike Valks survivors have been added to this workforce and time is running out.

Ahriman is being reckless the Adeptus Mechanicus fears he may stumble upon something that could add a new terrifying perspective to this already costly campaign Guardsmen Marbo one of the most elusive men alive has been shipped to the area his mission will be to link up with the survivors of the strike valk also to infiltrate the workforce and gather intel a dangerous job one only a man of his legendary status can carry out.

Chapter Master Vermillion rash and impettious wants to assault the tomb as soon as possible Imperial Commanders including Crusade commander Vorshev worries that the Astartes headstrong attitude to bring the war to a close may undermine the entire campaign.

Sounds good! I'd like to see it in a full out campaign thread sometime.

Poor infilTRAITOR, for alas, I knew him not-that-well...

We can only assume he met his end, fighting the loyalist dogs. May the chaos powers grant him many demonic gifts in the Warp.

-Puts helmet to his chest- Alas.

Why do I feel as though myself and Pimpalotz have taken the thread for him?

Sorry dudes didnt mean to hijack the thread where the hell is infilTRAITOR??

I feel equally bad! My fault too :(

I'm still alive just haven't had the time for my 40king recently. Got this next week off so I will be catching up with projects I've put on hold while doing some presentations for Uni. I have, however, managed to do some work on my Alpha Legionnaires which are part of my force and have made them sort of true-scale. When my loan kicks in I'm doing a practice true-scale terminator and dreadnought. Should be a hoot. Will post pictures over the coming days.

Best news in ages! Can't wait to see what you come up with! (as I tried experimenting with tru-scale marines/renegade chaos recently and found it much harder than I thought it would be)

You're back! Amazing! This is probably my favourite thread on Dakka, has provided loooads of inspiration for my own guard. Can't wait to see what you've got!

Glad to hear you're back in the saddle!

What did you use to make these minis?
What parts are their bodie and heads from?

Cheers and keep up the great work :-)

Merchant,
read the date of the last post next time you make a post

Yep, Threadromancy going on right here.

For the record, they're a combination of FW Elysians and Renegades.

Scrazza/Popsicle >> I got what I wanted - right?
Anyway, thanks.

Ye did that. You're welcome, too.

Ok i am so sorry for the fact this is so far back in the thread and I am probabally killing whatever conversation is going on around this page. But i really wanna know where that guys head is from? It looks so cool. Plus i love everything you are doing here, I am an emperor loyalist myself and usually h8 most things chaos (they depress me ) but even still this in *naughty word* insane!

Looks kinda like an FW Elysian head.

Yeah, but looks like he's added a rebreather to the jaw.

Or do those come as standard?

Still looks badass

ninja'd!

This project is over...
No need to "revive" it, however great it may be (and it is great!).

Touche' ...

It is not over, just spent most of my summer off of university working six day weeks so I don't have to rely on Student Finance. And today is my last day of said summer so I thought 'feth it, let's paint something!' This is far from over, I have a shelf on my bookcase full of WiPs for this army so there's plenty more to come.

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, but yes those are Elysian heads with rebreathers. I do have some regular ones without rebreathers that I will be selling on eBay soon. If anyone is interested, give me the heads up.

As for updates...BEHOLD!!



Got a Steel Legion squad for xmas last year. Almost done painting them, w00t!

I got this Heavy Stubber team last summer. Just finished it today.

What are you counting that Jagdpanther as? I have an old 1/35 Jagdpanther lying around and I've always wanted to do something with it.

Holy gak! Updates! There was me about to cry threadromancy.

You update less than me dude ;-)
