I was looking through the old 7th edition codex and got the nostalgia bug so I thought I’d build this list. It’s fully painted and ready for the table! Let me know what you think!

Will do! I’ll post them tonight

No school like the old school! Looks fun!

Took a while to find and I need to redo some bases but here it is the Demi Company

Sorry, but this list is terrible. It has no real winners and will just get stomped.

nah, just kidding, this is so amazing to see, absolutely love it. Just can't beat the old school marines for that classic marine feel. Army looks great too, really like your Champion. It's funny as I just pulled out my old tacticals, assault and devs to finish painting and realized I need to order 5 more assault marines to complete.

Haha thanks for the compliment on the army! Sadly I can see this list in tournament play being smashed aside especially with my heavy units being so killable after the lascannons and missle launchers I don’t have anything with the hitting power to take on heavier enemies! But I agree the first born have always been my favorite I just ordered the new bases so I can complete my battle company! Full 100 marines that will be amazing to see finally!
