My old Imperial Fists commander got the nickname Captain Awesome because he never once died in hand to hand combat even when swarmed by sisters repentia in one game. Just a standard Captain with storm bolter and single lightning claw. Didn't even have a paired weapon bonus attack. Just seemed that he always rolled amazing in melee and his opponents always rolled awful. So I started throwing him out as melee bait and my opponents would throw a couple of units at him in CC and he'd continue to win and then they would finally vaporize him with a fusillade of heavy weapons fire.
He is one of a handful of minis I kept my Imperial Fists and I am looking to find a role for him in my DA army now.

Might make you happier to know that while Captain Awesome was doing his thing in melee the rest of the army was usually gettings its backend handed to it, so it was more of a focus on the cool thing and ignore the bad stuff kind of thing.

I play a lot of armies but my favorite would have to be James "Draven" Mannfield. James is a converted Daemon prince made from the lower body of a trygon and the upper body of a soul grinder. He uses all daemon prince rules and upgrades but with the stats of a Corpulence (+1 wound, IWND) Bloodthirster to help with his massive size rendering cover and LOS denying impossible. He always does what's expected of him. Kill that HQ, pop that tank, Pester that expensive massive squad...etc.
He seems to share my utter hatred of the pansy tau.

"It is the soldier, not the reporter who has given us the freedom of the press.
"It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech.
"It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate.

Well, I haven't gotten to play much yet because of life stuff, but I'll have to go with my warboss; ""Boss Gorrag' Gob-smash" Won't play a game without him, just wish he had mega- armour thoguh  The few games I've had he seems quite good at revenge killing, as in what lost me the last game against someone he will crush this time, altough not necessarily winning the game. I think he's just spitefull, realy
Haven't gotten arount to basing hime yet, and was thinking of adding blood to the klaw, but I have to experiment on another model first

Mine is Commander Blacktide of my Tau Vior'La Black Ops. Back story wise he led the Black Ops Secret Service of my Tau army before they all defected to the Farsight Enclaves after finding out a dark, terrible secret about the Ethereals taking all the war gear and ships they could muster.
Really he was my first serious conversion from scratch and I have had some seriously lucky moments with him, especially when hes decked in iridium armor. Definitely got a soft spot for this one and I'm still tweaking it to this day changing weapons and whatnot. With his Airbursting Fragmentation Projector and Cyclic Ion Blaster he is my anti horde in 1 model.
There's a link to him here with the finished model at the bottom of the page: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/520760.page

Waaagh! Warbiker

I've got two
A nob warbiker. I call him simply "the pale rider" . I added DE bits to his bike. It was my first conversion. My fluff for him is that he accidentally added ancient eldar tech that allowed him to travel the webway on his bike. He's also got an ancient artifact that allows him to teleport through the warp. Because of this and the lack of a warp field he's been tainted by the warp making his skin a pale green. He's smarter than the average ork (possibly smarter than a mek)
And thousands of years old.
And Gubstop. Urlurk. My AOBR boss that has a forgeworld dreadnought arm in place of his PK. I paid a dollar for the boss and $8 for the MKIV arm. I was soo happy to play around with him and spent soo much time and effort. He's the boss of da whole crew. I count the storm bolter on his shoulder as an attack squig and his arm is a bosspole in itself. it was the second boss I ever built.

another beautiful model..or are mine just sub-par? well probably both.
id practice bloodying some tau or ultra-smurfs XD
and good luck with this, i found spatter as simple as getting your brush wet with desired blood color, and using your finger to flick the bristles on the model. it'll get blood on more than just a weapon...but who ever heard of an orc NOT soaked in the blood of his dismembered enemies?

i feel like constantly saying how nice all these conversions are is making it seem like it doesnt mean much...but nice conversion!
i can't wait till i can face an orc army...i think my army would do well against a green sea strategy, but i don't have much Anti-Armor so i could also be at a great disadvantage with that setup.

There must always be a tank..... of some kind.
I don't have a single unit that is my "favorite", and the most commonly used model is my Company Commander but he is not my "favorite" overall.
Otherwise, in terms of tank that is used most often it is a Leman Russ battle tank that I scratch built after seeing thread #5 of "Imperial tanks shouldn't work" or something to that degree, complaining how the tanks should not work due to X factors and blah blah blah.
Well I designed and built him with knowledge of real tanks mechanical workings and such and came out with "The Vanguard"
Overall he is used the most out of my tanks. He always seems to make his points up 3 fold hammering away at enemy infantry or getting the kill shot on an enemy vehicle.

Batork my Ork Kommando Nob. He's only primed in black and I've only had time to paint his skin.
In his first game, a 2v2 against DE and CSM he entered the board with his fellow kommandos, who immediately got ripped to shreds by Reaver bladevanes, leaving only Batork left. He didn't give a zoggin 'eck and went on to blow up two csm Rhinos with his klaw before he got shot down by bolter fire. All the while quoting the Dark Knight.

Back story wise he led the Black Ops Secret Service of my Tau army before they all defected to the Farsight Enclaves after finding out a dark, terrible secret about the Ethereals taking all the war gear and ships they could muster.
Really he was my first serious conversion from scratch and I have had some seriously lucky moments with him, especially when hes decked in iridium armor. Definitely got a soft spot for this one and I'm still tweaking it to this day changing weapons and whatnot. With his Airbursting Fragmentation Projector and Cyclic Ion Blaster he is my anti horde in 1 model.
There's a link to him here with the finished model at the bottom of the page: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/520760.page
Again with the tau?
but seriously, when you are done painting him i'd like to see him? i love seeing conversions
and i do enjoy your backstory for him.
Added a pic of the finished conversion. (also some progress shots in the link)

I'm already attached to my new Warboss Zagnob. It was a great conversion and a great alternative to the bosses out nowadays.

I have never seen anything go through cultists that fast. shouldn't you point him at imperial troops as opposed to chaos troops though? even as expendable as cultists are... A lot of my games are chaos vs chaos - less 'get off my lawn' and more arguing over who's lawn it is.

Its because ordinance is still a word.
However, firing ordinance at someone isn't nearly as threatening as firing ordnance at someone.
Ordinance is a local law, or bill, or other form of legislation.
Ordnance is high caliber explosives.
No 'I' in ordnance.
Don't drown the enemy in legislation, drown them in explosives. |
