http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net It is standard practise amongst the Thirteenth Legion to have a squad leader under the direct command of the sergeant. Having demonstrated inititative, fieldcraft abilities, understanding of strategic and tactical elements and command potential even above regular Astartes, these warriors are fully capable of effectively commanding their brethren in the field of battle. This is eased by every Ultramarine's spectacular resourcefulness and discipline.


Wearing an Honorific belt buckle taken from a suit of Thunder Armour, Squad Leader Eumon appears to be directing his brethren's fire. Note the frag and krak grenades slung from his belt and the Meditation Notes pinned to his shoulder pauldron.


This view shows the nameplate honorific on Eumon's left pauldron.

He's going to be part of a larger force – here's most of the first squad:

Although some more adornment on the different
parts might make it look less 'platt' (is that an english word?)

Keep up the good work!

It is a fairly common way to "True Scale" marines...

These look very nice!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/390558.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/390558.page GMT SM really need to be buffed up?

No, but it looks nive, although like Alpharius I am not sure about the torsos. What I would like to se is one of them really buffed marines, like in much of their artwork.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/391103.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/391103.page GMT Veteran Brother Eumon:

Brother Eumon is shown here directing the fire of his brethren. Note the jury-rigged steel plate across the vulnerable piping of the Mark II armour, and the black halo encircling the inverted omega of the Ultramarines on his Thunder Armour belt buckle. This represents the fleet of Macragge, and indicates Eumon has crewed a starship.

Numerous medallions, honorifics and details cover his breastplate: his right as a veteran.


Eumon's personal heraldry shows the diagonal split of Calth, with a gold and black cogged background indicating his support by one of the Techniclans. This is surmounted by a red Iron Halo, marking him out as a squad leader.

Note also the Meditations - two sets mark him out as particularly devoted to the teachings if the Primarch.


This angle shows the Legion heraldry - the inverted Omega of the Ultramarines. Inside this is the squad number. To the lower left is the Chapter number (in this case, 15), and to the lower right is the squad designation: tactical.

Note also Eumon's personalised boltgun, inscribed with 'Calth'. Numerous members of the Fifteenth Chapter were drawn from the militaristic areas of Calth, which gave the Chapter its honorific: The Praetors of Calth.

In Eumon's case, he is almost certainly a Terran veteran, and this boltgun casing may have been granted to him by an admiring artificer, as a personal gift from one of his brethren, or as an honour granted by his Captain on his promotion to squad leader.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/399087.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219004/399087.page GMT
