Widely regarded as the single most deranged ork in existence, Sir Lanzloota considers himself a heroic knight, on a never ending quest to slay dragons and rescue damsels (gretchin)
in distress. the fact that what he thinks is a dragon is in reality a rampaging squiggoth and his trusty steed is in fact a very fat boar is lost on him.

I believe what you have here is Orkish Don Quixote. Which is awesome. Now he just needs a fat little Gretchin sidekick to be Sancho Panza.

The good old carnifex. I'll post stats later.

(All Lore is from M42)

Beriel Angel of the Watch

Beriel served with the DeathWatch before his time as a Vitrue Prince. Where he served against the Tyranid Hive Fleet Naga. Though it was short lived, as a decade in service he and his squadmates were attacked by a Lictor while on reconnaissance, and being one of the few to make it out alive. After which he was sent back to the Wanderers Chapter. Though no reasoning was given by the Watch Commander for Beriel being sent back to the chapter. After he returned to the chapter he was given the Rank of Angel (Veteran Sergeant).

Beriel is one of the Angel Princes of the Space Marine Chapter the Wanderers. He is famed for ending the Shifter War. This war pitted the Wanderers and the Doom Legion against a shapeshifting race that could assume any form they had seen. Beriel was elevated to the position of Virtue Prince (Captain) and given a Knight Host (Company). Though his chapter is spread across the gaxaly he leads his Host with Distinction fighting with excellent precision. Only fighting in situations that favor his chapter's doctrine. By fighting from afar from the shadows. The Wanderers have excelled in gruellia warfare, and under Beriel and his experience as a former DeathWatch Marine have allowed his chapter to further excel his battle-brothers abilities.

Seen in his chapter as a shining example of what it means to be a wanderer. Though the beginning of the 42nd Millenia spelled doom for the Imperium. Though far from the Imperiums the Wanderers had gathered for the purposes of defending the Ghoul Star's and its human colonies from the prediations of the Denizens of the Ghoul Stars. Beriel in those final days stood among his brothers as legends, fighting for the first time on the frontlines of battle. Dare say no man expected the Great Beriel of the Wanderers Chapter to have a change of heart.....

Daryth Stormbringer

Daryth Stormbringer, a former Brother-Captain in Horus' Luna Wolves, has fought his way to the top. After the HH, Abaddon encouraged him to go to another chapter, the Angels of Osmodoro, to corrupt them and turn them to chaos. As a powerful psyker, he managed to influence the chapters homeplanet Osmodoro so much that both the Astartes and Cadians living there were corrupted, crippled and weakened. Soon, witha force of thousands, Daryth could quickly seize the planet, and use it for his own needs.

Going to battle in his personally modified Rhino, he always leads the attack towards his enemies.

The good old carnifex stats.

Good old carnifex.....220 points

Composition: 1 (unique)
Unit type: Monsterous creature
Weapons and biomorphs: Bonded exoskeleton, 2 sets of scything talons, regeneration.
Special rules: Instinctive behavior-feed, fearless, Living battering ram, 'I'm gonna stomp you all into space bitz!!!'
'I'm gonna stomp you all into space bitz!!!': Once every two turns, the Good Old Carnifex can turn to an enemy squad (maximum distance is up to 18 inches). The Good old Carnifex runs towards that enemy squad as fast as it possibly can, trampling everything, even other enemy squads, in its path. However, if the Good old Carnifex hits a vehicle (including walker vehicles), it must roll a D6. On a result of 1-3, it stops and the vehicle automatically suffers a penetrating hit. On a result of 4-6, it obliterates the vehicle and it continues on until it reaches 18 inches or the squad it was trying to reach (provided the squad it was trying to reach was behind the vehicle). If it hits the squad, the squad is automatically killed. The Good old Carnifex cannot move next turn, but may use its weapons if an enemy squad dares to go near it.

The return of Vect.

Bodyguards: Vect is accompanied aboard the Dais by two Incubi bodyguards. They are treated as normal Incubi for all purposes and may make attacks when the Dais is in close combat. The controlling player may choose to allocate shooting hits to them and in close combat the attacking player must allocate hits to the Incubi before he can allocate them to Vect.

There. Big, scary, and worthy of a Lord of War slot.

(I thought I would tke another shot at this and throw out the ideas I had for my namesake, and leader of my warband.)

These are some cool ideas but I'd love to see a costing breakdown, however rough.

Chains of Guilt: Treat this unit as if it had Jump Infantry mobility with out having Jump infantry rule. Also allows the ability to use a Lash of Submission power without psychic abilities to pull a unit closer to him. Yes he can pull a freaking titan to him after failing to charge. And grants rule to melee a flyer!

Lone Wolf, Rampage, Monster Hunter, Preferred enemy (Super Heavies),Eternal Warrior because he bitch smacks Hades.
It will not die because he climbs his way back out of hell. Feel No Pain because he just doesn't!

Here's how I came up with the cost;

Chaos Lord - 65
Sigil of Corruption - 25
Ancient Runic Armor - 60
Increased attacks and WS - 20
Champion of Chaos change - 10
Blades of Guilt - 50
total = 230

Maybe the his unique Champion of Chaos rule should be a little more. I just don't think that he is worth more than say Typhus or Ahriman.

Mister Trygon...240 points
Unit Composition: 1 trygon
Weapons and biomorphs: 6 scything talons (3 sets), adrenal glands, regeneration, large maw
Stats same as Regular Trygon, except Mister Trygon has 7 wounds.
Special Rules:
Normal Trygon Rules
'I'm gonna eat you and you'll be digested into space bitz!'

'I'm gonna eat you and you'll be digested into space bitz!': Once per game, Mr. Trygon can move to the nearest infantry unit, pick the unit up with his maw, and swallow them. To survive being chewed and swallowed, they must roll a D6 for however many people are in the unit (like if there is 6 people in the unit, they must roll 6D6). They must get a 4 or better. In Mr. Trygon's digestive tract, the infantry unit tries to fight out, if they survived the maw. They must roll one D6 for every person in the unit. On a 5 or better, they break out and Mr. Trygon loses a wound. If they get a 4 or lower, they are digested and cannot do anything else this game.

So. I've been skimming through this thread in my down time over the past few days and it made me curious for opinions on a character I've been brewing up to fit my custom Ordo Malleus Inquisitor model in Terminator armor. He's more of a kitbash than anything, but I came up with a few rules ideas for him shortly after I put him together and would love a bit of input. I haven't put a ton of work into the fluff as of yet, but there is some in the special rules descriptions.

Lord Inquisitor Harkness Nadir
190 Points

WS BS S T W I A Ld Sv
4 4 3 4 3 4 3 10 2+/5++

Unit Type: Infantry (Character)
Unit Composition: 1 (Unique)

Wargear: Terminator Armor, Psycannon, Swift Retribution, Psyk-out Grenades

Special Rules: Stubborn, Independent Character, Auspex Interface, Bionic Reinforcement, Psyker (Level 2), Wrath of the God-Emperor

Auspex Interface: Harkness' Auspex Interface is a fully integrated auspex scanner combined with an advanced targeting cogitator that continually scans his surroundings and feeds its telemetry directly into a data port in his neo-cortex, allowing the Inquisitor to see targets at close proximity no matter where they try to hide or how fast they move. He has the Ignores Cover universal special rule against all targets within 12”.

Bionic Reinforcement: Harkness has suffered a number of grievous wounds during his time with the Ordo Malleus. His left leg was severed below the knee by the power sword of a particularly brutal champion of the World Eater's chapter of Chaos Space Marines, had six ribs broken from a single backhanded blow from a Maulerfiend and lost his right hand to the ravenous blood thirst of a Khorne Bloodletter. As such he has been outfitted with significant bionic and augmetic enhancements in order to strengthen and rebuild his shattered body. He has +1 Toughness (indicated in the chart above) and the Feel No Pain special rule on a 6+.

Psyker (Mastery Level 2): Harkness can choose to generate his powers from the Divination, Pyromancy, or Telekinesis disciplines.

Final Retribution: An imposing Nemesis weapon of his own unique design, Final Retribution is Harkness' final answer to a Daemon's threat. It is a massive, triple headed, spiked flail that crackles with azure energy and is imbued with runes that focus his psychic might.

S AP Type
+1 3 Melee, Specialist Weapon, Concussive, Force, Daemonbane, Zealous Strength

Zealous Strength: Final Retribution gains in striking power as it gains more and more momentum, giving Harkness a distinct advantage in drawn out conflicts. For every turn after the first Harkness gains an additional +1 Strength, to a maximum of 6, and when he reaches this maximum strength (on the 3rd consecutive turn of combat) Final Retribution improves to AP 2.

Wrath of the God-Emperor: Harkness is a stalwart champion of the Ordo Malleus and has spent over one hundred years hunting down the Daemons of Chaos and their Warp-tainted servants. As such he has come into close contact with the Grey Knights Chapter of the Space Marines on numerous occasions and as a result has been allowed to study some of their formidable psychic disciplines. He automatically knows the Hammerhand psychic power and may choose to freely swap one of his two randomly generated powers for either Banishment or Sanctuary, but never both. If he chooses to swap a power in this way, he may not generate Psychic Focus.


I decided on just shy of 200 points based on what I added up from the Inquisiton Codex and a general ballpark for the USRs his special rules grant. Here is the Points Breakdown as I see it:

25 (Inquisitor) + 40 (Terminator Armor) + 15 (Psycannon) + 20 (Final Retribution) + 10 (Auspex Interface) + 20 (Bionic Reinforcement) + 40 (Psyker Level 2) + 20 (Wrath of the God Emperor) = 190

Lots of good color to his character, yet without making the rules over the top. I'd actually take the range limit off the Auspex thingy and let him have unrestricted Ignores Cover for the 10 points.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
But you could probably cost the Flail a bit higher, given all its special rules. I really like the progressively increasing strength bit, it's colorful and unlikely to come into play so often as to be unbalancing.

I was initially going to make his Auspex Interface a flat Ignores Cover but I thought it might be a little broken, though I guess with only 24" on his Psycannon isn't super OP.

So maybe go with 20 total points for Final Retribution for a total of 190? And yeah, I figured the progressive strength thing would work well with his Bionic Reinforcement rule and Terminator Armor. Gives him good resilience and the opportunity to deal some damage if a combat drags on. If it gets to the 3rd round that makes 3 S6 AP2 attacks coming in at I4, which is pretty strong, but the chances of getting there are pretty slim.

Warsmith Garash, of the Iron Warriors 8th Grand Battalion

WS: 6 BS: 6 S: 4 T: 4 W: 3 I: 5 A: 3 Ld: 10 Sv: 2+

Unit Type: Infantry (Character)

Wargear: Fleshmetal, Bolt Pistol, Power Axe, Combi Bolter, Frag Grenades, Krak Grenades, Melta Bombs, Sigil of Corruption.

Warlord Trait:

Siege-breaker: After deployment, but before Scout redeployments and Infiltrate deployment, nominate D3 pieces of terrain in your opponent's deployment zone (these may be the ones that he has purchased as a part of his army). The terrains' cover saves are decreased by one for the duration of the game. For example, a ruin (4+ cover save) would instead offer a 5+ cover save. A piece of terrain can only be affected by this once.

Special Rules: Champion of Chaos, Fearless, Independent Character

Scion of the Apolakreon: Maulerfiends, Forgefiends and Defilers chosen from Codex: Chaos Space Marines can be taken as Elites choices as well as Heavy Support choices in any detachment that includes Garash.

The Supply-master: After deployment, but before Scout redeployments and Infiltrate deployment, the player controlling Garash can place D3 Ammunition Dumps anywhere within his deployment zone. These follow the rules for Ammunition Dumps presented under the Battlefield Debris section of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.

Points:
Chaos Lord (65) + Combi Bolter (5) + Power Axe (15) + Sigil of Corruption (25) + Fleshmetal (20) + Melta Bombs (5) + Gift of Mutation (10) + 2 x Ammunition Dump (50) = 195pts.

I like them both! I want to field Garash along with my Lord!

I'd add that he counts as a Warpsmith for the purposes of Infernal Relics (fire raptors, sicarians etc) since it fits both what you've got for him and the concept of Iron Warriors

Excellent idea. I hardly ever play FW so obviously that did not cross my mind. Thanks!

Kratos, Ghost Of Sparta!

Legion of The Damned HQ Captain template stats with ability to deepstrike or arrive from reserves with out use of terminator armor or anything. Has eternal warrior, rage, preferred enemy (Super Heavies) special rule.

Upgrade options

Can replace his bolt pistol and ccw with one of the following:

25pts Blades of Exile: +1STR +4Attack +1 Initiative AP4, Rending, Counts as having 2 speacialist ccw weapons, can pull enemy units 18" away 2d6 closer to him or propel him 2d6 into them ignoring difficult and dangerous terrain modifiers.

40pts Blade of Olympus: +3 STR, +1Attack, AP3, Counts as a single 2 handed great sword ccw.

30pts Claws of Hades: Flesh Bane, AP6, +2A, counts as 2 ccw, can pull enemy units 18" away 2d6 closer to him or propel him 2d6 into them ignoring difficult and dangerous terrain modifiers.

30pts Nemian Cestus: +2 STR, -2I, AP2 Armorbane, Concussive, Counts as having 2 specialist unwieldly weapons.

30pts Apollo's Bow: 24" salvo 3/8. STR 3 ap5 rending. Or secondary firing mode: 36" Heavy 1, STR 9 ap2 lance.

Can replace his Power Armor with:
25pts Golden Fleece: 5+/4++, Deny the witch,

Can choose 1 of the following relics:
Boots of Hermies: Calvalry 10pts
Wings of Icarus: Jump Pack 15pts

Can choose 1 of the following relics:
20pts Medusa's Head: Black mace effect causing toughness tests

So for 25 points you gain:
+1 Str
+4 Attack
+1 Init
AP4
Rending
+1 attack more for 2 specialist weapons
And the ability to essentially charge double distance (pull, charge)

Just to qualify this, Captains have... 4 attacks base maybe? So on the charge this is giving 11 attacks (4+2rage+4weapon+1specialist weapons)

The 40 p

Claws... again pulling and charging seems wrong, bad mechanic

Cestus... seems OKish, its not unwielding if its only -2 init though

Puny bolt gun/lascannon relic just seems wrong. especially on a model that can gain relentless.

Fleece is fine, you pay storm shield prices for a worse invul and lose your power armour in doing so
