I don't care if you don't check the Oath thread, y'all get to see my oath cause I love it. In the darkest mists of Terra's past, a visionary ruler used the brazen bull to execute his foes. Man had forgotten this holy beast, but the gods that first whispered to the doomed inventor did not.  It is an object of veneration to the Brazen Daemons, their prayers tattooed upon the skins adorning its armor.  According to their interpretation of the Book of Lorgar, the holiest death is one in service to the gods of Chaos - such is the death of the slaves burned in the beast's bowels to awaken its burning heart.  Death at the hands of a true servant of the gods is a close second.  The last sight of Brother-Captain Dorius of the pitied Ultramarines - it was a blessed day, for his soul now rests with the true gods.  The great beast surrounded by its adoring cult.

Sulecrist posted:Hey Ghost Hand, I'm thinking about purchasing either a Fire Raptor or a Caestus Assault Ram soon. You have both models, right? In person, which do you prefer aesthetically? Fire Raptor is badass looking in my opinion. I like the Caestus but much prefer the look of the Fire Raptor. Go with a list of what you want - if they dont have it there, they will ship it to you free.

Once again - if someone could point me to any article or statement where Hasbro said they are looking at buying GW I would love to see it. Sorry but just because they bought WoTC, doesn't mean GW is next in line. I just don't see Hasbro buying them.

No fuckin clue. Torso and legs are a single piece and came with a pile of metal death company. I assume it is a metal veteran or honor guard model but I don't remember seeing it before. The arms and pads are a set as well and originally were positioned in a more overhead swing but I had to jimmy with them to fit the jump pack on and not block his head.

Space Marine fig. Not a jump pack marine, but looks so, so much better with a jump pack (I have one leading a squad of Lamenters). Possibly 2009. http://archive.chaptermasters.com/Inquisitor.jpg

Yeah that looks like it. I got a spare one that has a messed up thunder hammer. Neither came with a head. Judging by that pic, I didn't miss out on much.

Crosspostin' some marines I just finished. The first of my Deathwatch marines, which I will be using as Sternguard  I tried to keep them visually characterful and recognizable to be from a specific chapter, and not just have different colored shoulder pads. Also, here's a chaplain, who will hopefully someday be actually used in a game.

They get exponentially better if you take a Sorcerer w/ Prophet of the Voices and going for getting Hammer Hand from Sanctic , get that then go for cursed earth or Biomancy. If you want just a gently caress off unit go with Sanctic and Slaanesh Sorcerer accompanying them. Then take the banner that gives them all Feel No Pain. Grimoire them and enjoy a 3++ , 3+ , Feel No Pain unit. It's expensive though nothing is going to go near a unit that's ST7 and has those stats.

I also dig that they're more Terminator-sized than regular dude-sized. 45 GBP is still nuts, but it's slightly easier to swallow when they're bigger models.

Screw it, start em all in a Land Raider with Dirge Caster. Go hog wild. I was rereading the Possessed entry from the CSM codex and realize that you can pay 5pts for an Icon to give a Fearless unit Fearless.

Yes, because you have all of those silly ground units instead of more FMCs. Raveners? Pffft, whatta chump.Hollismason posted:They get exponentially better if you take a Sorcerer w/ Prophet of the Voices and going for getting Hammer Hand from Sanctic , get that then go for cursed earth or Biomancy. Telepathy is a lot less work and gives you defensive buffs that are as good or better in most cases; Invisibility and/or Shrouded are amazing, and even Hallucination is okay when hitting something you're about to assault. S5 means you're already wounding most units on 3s or 2s, and if you're Mark of Khorne you can even get S6 on the charge for a pretty minimal cost. (FNP is probably better, though.) The problem is that Possessed are still 25+pts per model for something that is not a lot better than a regular CSM in combat. For a token amount more, you could instead be a Terminator with AP3 all the time, just as many attacks, better armor, and the ability to Deep Strike where you need to go. Possessed are just not in a very good place, even with the Crimson's Laughter book. edit: derp, different units are called different things for some reason!
