Tactical Squad Ariakus & Honor's Retribution

Well, at least I could get my hands on a camera! This models still WIP but nearly finished. As you can see I can't paint white, so I must go in another way. I painted the white parts of the armour dirty and dusty. This army would be desert themed/based so I think that is ok.

Quotes from the Heresy: World Eaters

The World Eaters were First Founding Space Marines, and still regard themselves as such.

Even before the Horus Heresy, the World Eaters were noted for their bloody-handed approach to warfare and savagery of their training, Chapter rituals and treatment of enemies [...]

The World Eaters wear armour in Khorne's colours of red and black. Individual patterns vary, but the right gauntlet is always painted red as a mark of loyalty to Khorne [...]

However, the original chapter colours of white and blue are still visible on some items of World Eaters armour and equipment. Often a shoulder piece, a breastplate or a single piece of armour has come from one of the Legion's original Space Marines and has been incorporated (without redecoration) into the Legion's new armour [...]

Special Rules

World Eaters Legionnaires are subject to hatred of all mortal followers of Slaanesh, Space Marines, Inquisitors, psykers and spellcasters of any kind [...]

Pre Heresy Legion Organization

Well, I belive that this need a proper thread. I've been thinking in how a legio is structured and organized. There are many holes here and I hope that with your help we can fill this holes.

This is a quote from this topic:
I go for Century [consensus in the absence of a better term for Company divisions].in the Company divisions and organization.
I'm wondering the same about the WE Captains, if they are more or less the equivalent of a Chapter Master, what is the equivalent of a captain? I guess we actually don't have any. But if we go a little forward on time to the Space Crusade/Rogue Trader era --not crusade/pre heresy era I know, is post heresy, I'm guessing the scourge era (or whatever is called) mainly because at least in Space Crusade, there are no Chapters yet, but Legiones Astartes-- We have some nice ranks:

Lieutenant Comander - In charge of ? (not sure about this one).
Captain - In charge of the Company
Lieutenant - In charge of the Century
Sargent - In charge of a squad

Pre Heresy World Eaters, which codex to use?

In the beginning I’ve considered the Blood Angels bandwagon, but there are so many things that keep me away from using it it. This codex have some interesting things what can temp to any player to use it, like assault squads as troops, the almighty Death ‘count as Berserker’ Company, hand flamers, Honour Guard, and so on, but there are also things like ‘all fast vehicles’ that doesn’t fit in any ways, and a lot of things like Sanguinary Guard, Psyker-Dreads, dedicated Land Raiders… Is the general feeling of C:BA that I don’t like for a pre-Heresy World Eaters army.

Of all Space Marine codex, there are two of them that can fit really well in the theme, Codex Black Templars and Codex Chaos Space Marines.

Mandatory 1st article and introduction post.

Hi, this is the compulsory 1st post.

My name is Jorge, I have 33 years and I am from Spain. I played GW games sice 1991 aprox, but not continuous. I started with HeroQuest, Space Crusade and Battle Masters (and yeah, I still have the first two), after a few years of relax, I played WFB 1ts ed until 3th ed (mainly with undeads/vampire counts, but also Bretonia, Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh (Thulsa Doom's Conan themed army)) and, finally, WH40k and Gorka-Morka.

From 40k, I made a CSM (Word Bearers) and a SM (no chapter, unpainted) both unfortunately, sold.

Now, this is the starting of a Pre Heresy World Eaters army. This blog will be updated with any progress in the army, tutorials and random stuff 40k related.

And well, thats all folks!
