I'm searching for a space marine torso with a high collar for a heavy duty looking centurion, tips? I was considering kitbashing a mk8 or mk10 from 40k for a "big guy", but the scale might be off too much.
>>
>>94097900
Wouldn't use MkX. MkVIII you might get away with. The scale isn't that far off, at worst you'll just need a little greenstuff work.
You could also use polystyrene tube to make the gorget and attach it to an existing torso if you're really worried about scale.
>>
Isn't it kind of limiting (story-wise) to have this guy in your list?

>>94097900
if youre autistic enough i think you could carefully trim the collar off of a primaris marine and attach it to a mkvi or mkiii body

Can you guys post your models please? preferably legion infantry and characters?

I'm trying to get some inspo and references since there isn't much 30k artwork or hobby projects compared to 40k. I have to find tutorials for 40k IW or IF since it's more popular than 30k. Also, would it seem odd to have IW beakies? Duncan did a video for beakie IW and while the pait job is cool and so is the beakie sculpt, the sculpt is just too smooth and flat for the iconic look of IW. I think they fit IF or RG or BA much better, but mk3 is still my all time favorite armor iteration.
>>
>>94098048
allow me to clarify that all armies/factions are welcome. 30k is much grittier and bleak in my mind compared to what 40k has become.

Did MkVIII exist specifically? No. Can you find a way to use a MkVIII torso? Yes. Collars existed, MkVII style torso complete with three abdominal cables and a decorative breastplate existed, etc. Anon is, after all, looking for an armour for a centurion, who's in AA, so his armour can diverge from pure designs.

Alpharius Omegon never agreed with the Cabal, even if they recognize the truth in their words.
If Horus wins, mankind is consumed by chaos and destroyed. This is bad.
If the Emperor wins, mankind stagnates and the whole galaxy is consumed by chaos. This is also bad.
...but if NEITHER wins, these futures are averted. Mankind will be pushed to the breaking point, but also be kept strong and in a state of constant readiness.
So the Alpha Legion made sure no side would gain an advantage over the other, helping the weak, pruning the strong.
This is why they both made the plan for Istvaan V, but also made sure that Corax survived, and that his legion recovered the Sangprimus.
Don't you think it was very convenient for Marcus Valerius to get those dreams telling him to go to Istvaan? Especially when stationed on Deliverance, where we later learn the AL also were, fostering a rebellion.
That's why they vented the Cabal representative into space. The only survivable future is Eternal War.
It's what the Emperor tasked Alpharius with: to seek for answers in unlikely places.

Honestly I prefer the old lore where they were bitter that no one acknowledged their method of warfare, and siding with Horus was a chance to directly demonstrate its effectiveness. Also funny that they got sidetracked fighting other wars just to flex on loyalists

>>Names the first legion "dark Angels"
The 1st had no official nomen until after Lion had been discovered on Caliban. The name "Dark Angels" is a reference to a Calibanite poem Luther cited when he witnessed the first space marines descended on Caliban, and so the name could be attributed to him.

Point being that the Emperor did not actually name any of the legions "angels".

Hey ho /hhg/, been musing on my idea for a HH force that I can start working on in a year. Mentioned my idea before of a renegade Ultramarine force that's ambiguous about their loyalties. Not sure if I want the commander to be a legate or lowly captain but essentially he's supposed to be prideful, arrogant and lusting for power that he feels has been denied him under Guilliman and the Imperium. I'm basing him on a populist senator during the late Roman republic, Cataline for example but also Sulla, Ceasar etc. So he'll be scheming, unprincipled and selfish but still an Ultramarine at heart so he values strength, discipline and courage (TRVE ROMAN for his own purposes). So he'll have some thousand marines in the ass end of the galaxy when Calth happens and news eventually reach him. He'll have his trusted veterans but will quickly raise masses of inductii so he can start building his own little Ultramar. But unfortunately for him his in traitor territory and has to lay low, mainly fighting SOH and WE. So while he's fighting a hit and run campaign he's waging populist uprisings on hive worlds against Horus. Taking inspiration from Judge Dredd, Genetic Infantryman, Rogue Trader and Necromunda here so I can have hive gangers with a Roman flair while my inductii will have lots of inspiration from the good comics of the British 80's. Horus sux, Ultraside, shark mouths on beakies etc with obscene graffiti straight outta Pompeii.
So what's the best way turn this concept into a functional army I can play games with and survive past turn 1?
>>

>>94098773
I also like the prideful aspect of AL: that they admire Horus as a superlative warrior over a distant Emperor, and that their own methods of warfare go unrecognized, despite being successful.
Maybe both the old fluff and the cabal disagreement can be true: they are 2/3 traitor, allowing the Emperor to be defeated. But their remaining loyalty has them also stab Horus in the back to ensure he loses as well.
Full renegades, furthering the cause they believe in, even if others won't understand...

Why the hate for John French again? I read his 40k stuff and it’s not bad, though kind of mid.
>>
>>94099080
All of that and more, in plastic.
>>
>>94097147
That looks horrible.
>>
>>94099091
From 1d6: "With the sad death of Alan Bligh, John French has taken over as the main fluff writer for Forgeworld's Horus Heresy Books, and it fucking shows. Suffice to say he is a talented writer who's not suited for that sort of thing at all, and the threads that focus on the lore were not kind. For those curious, either French or another writer had a serious hard-on for the Dark Angels, as an example, apparently 12 Cenobites in the lore were able to kill 50 of Horus' Justaerin Terminators, while only losing a handful of their own. They then went on to butcher the most skilled fighters the Sons of Horus had to offer during that siege, and after carving their way through every fucking opponent, were finally killed when the Destroyer Corps used Phosphex to finish them off. Lest you think the Dark Angels had lost though, the book makes it clear that the Sons of Horus got their ass kicked in every aspect of the conflict as well, despite having the element of surprise, careful planning, and a much greater force."

Sigismund, apparently, is the bestest duelist evar, and has instant death on his sword, and is special enough to have eternal warrior so he can't be instantly lascannon'd off the board (Note: not even Abby has eternal warrior, despite that being his old thing in 40k). John french wrote sigismund. Take a look at sigismund's model, then take a look at john french. Notice anything?

Good evening gentlemen. It has been well over a year since the forgeworld daemon engines were legends'd from 40k and unceremoniously dumped into Horus heresy, first as a pdf and then repackaged into the Martian civil war book. Despite now being models for 30k, they are still sold under the banner of chaos in 40k instead of the Horus heresy.

Also if you go to the page for the Javelin- the one painted in Sons of Horus colours- and click on the link in the description, it will not take you to the rules for the Javelin as advertised, but rather stick you on the front page of Warcom- in German, for some bizarre reason. Well done, Games Workshop.

The two can work together just fine; only the Alpha Legion could have the pridefulness and ego necessary to believe they know better than both a superpsychic nascent god who's also their daddy AND an organisation of Ancient Aliens with gajillions of years experience fighting and predicting Chaos. And what better way to prove they were right all along about how wars should be fought than using their preferred methods to turn the entire future of humanity into a war fought on their terms.

As usual the problem is not BL but flufflets incapable of creative synthesis.
