Zone Mortalis "A Tale..."

[Arioch]

Jag vill spela mer, har nu bestämt mig för att jag ska ha Terminators när vi köper Elites, samt börjat skriva in dem i Fluffet.

Riktigt kul att flera har en inspirationstopp!

Jag har samlat på mig massa änglanamn och håller på att gallra bland dem. Lite svårt att välja då jag har så lite grejer än så länge som gör dem speciella.

Battle doctrine
When observed fighting many has remarked on their way of conducting themselves, they seem to have more individualization and specialization among their Space Marines than usual. Each one as a place, and are a part of the fighting force but they seem to be more specialized than usual. The Heavy weapon teams are experts in their chosen weapons, but seem to be less so when fighting in close combat. The same is observed among the close combat experts, they seem almost reluctant to fire weapons, instead advancing at great speed towards the enemy, and then shred him to pieces. They operate almost machine like, everything has a place in the whole. And nobody moves outside his assigned role or position.
The Flaming Fists believe that the use of tanks and armoured vehicles is a coward’s way of fighting. The righteous soldier of the God-Emperor puts his own body in the fire and walks away unscathed. This belief means that the Flaming Fists have a very, very small armoury of tank and dreadnoughts. They simply don’t use them! Instead they advance fearlessly towards the enemy safe in their own armour!

Battle cry: Imperatore vult illud! (Kejsaren vill det!)

The Mortalis squad
The greatest honour that can be bestowed upon a Flaming Fist is to be selected to enter the Mortalis Squad. This is a highly trained and specialized force whose main task is to enter and cleanse Space Hulks and similar threats to the Imperium. They are selected for their zeal, dedication and stubbornness. All in the squad are experts in their own field of warfare.

Tactical squad, “Fist of Mortalis”
The Fist of Mortalis as existed longer without casualties than any other Mortalis squad in the chapter history. Some say they are blessed by the Emperor himself, some say they are plain lucky. Whatever the case they have time and time again shown themselves in combat. Bringing honours and valuable artefacts back to the chapter.
Some say that it’s time for them to step aside, and teach the youngsters among the chapter how to conduct themselves on the field of battle. But their effectiveness in combat says otherwise, they are simply put to good at smiting the Emperors foes to be locked up in a chapter monastery, teaching.

Terminator squad, “The Exterminators”
In times of extreme peril, the Mortalis squad sometimes calls upon their Battle brothers from the first company. They always ask for the five terminator brothers calling themselves The Exterminators, this squad as an unbroken record, they have never tasted the bitter draught of defeat, they properly don’t even know what the word means. Fearlessly teleporting into battle to shred the God-Emperors foes, advancing into the face of overwhelming odds, that’s the Exterminators. To this day the Exterminators have not numbered more than five Battle brothers; the reason for this is the extreme demand of qualification that Veteran Sergeant Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher puts on the recruits. To this day nobody has meet his standard, and nobody else have been permitted to enter the Exterminator squad. Although it is whispered that after the battle of Holy Color he has set his stern gaze upon the trooper known has “Yellowbringer” only time will tell if the trooper continues to meet up to the extreme heights of expectation that von Blücher demands of his Terminators.

Seriöst det är skit kul å skriva fluff till sina gubbar! Hoppas vi inspirerar fler till att bli än mer nördiga!

[Röde]

@Arioch. Tänk på att vi initialt begränsar antalet terminators till 3. Du kan ju iofs bygga fler och byta mellan när de hittar stuff. En med Plasma Cannon skulle ju vara hur tufft som helst.

Två är på semester till Armaggedon?

Fick hem min Plastruct idag. Båda typerna av diamantmöstrad plåt och båda skalorna ser ut att kunna funka finfint. Tycker att beställningen gick mycket smidigt. Leverans tredje arbetsdagen efter beställning trotts detta underbara väder. Kan således varmt rekommendera Söders RC/Hobby AB.

Fixar lite med baserna till mina Tacticals just för stunden. Plastructen är tunnare än jag räknat med så det går att klippa i den med en vanlig sax. Har limmat lite och målat första lagret Bolt Gun. Ska försöka fixa baserna under dagen trotts förkylning och feber...

Bilder under dagen eller imorgon.

[Röde]

Här kommer lite bilder på baserna-wip. Mest för att bl.a. Väktaren var nyfiken på hur skalan funkar. Detta är alltså den "stormönstrade" varianten. Jag tycker det funkar och är lite mer heroic scale än den andra.





Kommer fler bilder allt eftersom de tar form.

Storleken passar riktigt fint tycker jag =)
