From left to right....(taken a fair few years ago).
My Imperial Paladins, a friend's Wardens of Ultramar (Ultra successors that used the DA robes and had a St Georges Cross approach in terms of heraldry) and one of the Crimson Wolves (DA successor mentioned earlier.)
They're gorgeous.
Wish the photos had better quality, looks like they've got some cool detail work.
I don't break the rules but I'll bend them as far as they'll go.

They've lost sight of the fact that it's a game, and are trying to dictate how you have to play. And they're wrong. You paint your SMs any color you want and pick whatever tactic you want. Have fun. If they're a fluff fan, make up a backstory of being a successor chapter that excels at the tactics you're using. Anyone who argues doesn't deserve your time.
Very well said. It just speaks of the character of a person who says to anyone how something should be done with their time, their money, and what they like. Just because someone likes something different nobody should tell anyone on what you can and can not do.
Pretty much this.
The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.
