This particular force is going to be an army I can play using both 40k rules and 30k rules if I can help it. This will be a chapter of the Word Bearers legion as seen post-Calth.

Legion: Word Bearers (XVII Legion)

Chapter: Chapter of the endless spiral

Battles of Note: Took part in shadow crusade, fighting the Ultramarines across the 500 worlds. operated from the cardinal-class Cruiser Exhumation of Eternity, the chapter struck out on its own, breaking off from the main Word Bearers/World Eaters fleet, operational status unknown.

Chapter Members of note:

Dark Apostle Eresh Drauga
Eresh Drauga was a member of High Chaplain Erebus' inner circle. More the warrior than the priest, Drauga was quick to form daemonic pacts as he rose to power within the ranks of the VIII legion. Drauga even allowed daemonic possession of his body. After Calth, and the betrayal of so many battlebrothers by Erebus and Kor Phaeron, Drauga struck out on his own, sailing his ship and chapter into the void. Rumors persist of attacks across the Segmentum Ultramar, whispers and cut-short astropathic cries for help, of a dark Astartes warrior-priest and the hardened veterans and daemonic legions he wields against enemies of his mysterious agenda.

A lot of conversion and greenstuff work, and more to come, so stay tuned as I begin to paint these bad boys!

Great conversions!

Only one little thing: the Word Bearers are the XVII Legion. The VIII Legion are the Night Lords.

Oops, so embarrassing :(

I'm not sure how my brain thought the word bearers were 8th legion.

It's this darn cold weather, -30C out right now, can't even prime spray!
