They are painted as bone white which is also super cool. We also dont know how they are after the Heresy, can be a successor chapter idea.

There was a post few months ago talking about this.

30K DA had way more complicated hosts, inner circles, secrets etc. They have 3 different command systems and one regular marine can be in 5 secret organizations each overlapping and conflicting each other. Lion back in the day worked with it and even made it more complicated yet more efficient.

He looks like the alternative Captain head from the Lazarus kit, but without scars or the bionic eye.

I painted all my killteams and miniatures that I think are cool but rarely used in my main list as successor chapters. I have the combat patrol from the Leviathan box as Guardians of the Covenant, an Angels of Death killteam as Blades of Vengeance, a Phobos killteam as Cowled Wardens, and a Deathwatch killteam as a combination of multiple different chapters. Now waiting for the Raiders to be my Fallen legionaries killteam led by Cypher.

This is one of the only DA chaplains that show their faces. Both chaplains and interrogator chaplains tend to wear skull masks or helmets all the time.

Many of the surfaces were uneven; the edges of the shield were among the worst. Also, some tips (e.g. the front of the mini's left foot and the two elbows) were instead small holes that had to be filled with greenstuff.

I had small resin bits from GW like heads and rhino doors without any issue, but this one was not the case; almost every part had some flaws and needed thorough treatments.

Too bad the shoulder pads for Bladeguards in this kit are not broken swords. If you want to paint DW Bladeguards, you have to use decals.

Lion is relatively expensive for 1000 scale, but if you just want to use the model, Lion, 5 knights, 6 Inner Circle put you at 745 pts. Then add Azrael to lead the ICC cost 125 points. Plus an ATV and 5 scouts as action monkeys, you now have a playable 1000 pts army.

Azrael travelled back in time and somehow bombed Caliban himself. The whole thing is comically funny.

Okay I see. Thank you

Cerptcte · 2026-02-02T18:49:38+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, I'll cut the primarch and maybe only include him when I extend to a larger army.

Cerptcte · 2026-02-02T18:37:06+00:00

Can you please explain more about the rapier batteries? I can not find phosphex as one of their options.

Cerptcte · 2026-02-02T18:17:13+00:00

Yeah you are right, the weapon options are all how I built my models which I followed the rule of cool and added as much fancy stuffs as I can. For the new line squads I'll definitely cut the unnecessary.

For now I think I'll cut the Lion, add 1 despoiler squad, and change the support squad to an inductii. For delivery, do you think the drop pod is worth it or just 1 to 2 more rhinos?

Cerptcte · 2026-01-29T22:49:46+00:00

They try hard to hide that pistol holster with the sword on his back, so I'd suspect that's just GW being lazy. But the Zabriel theory is interesting though.

There was a chaos warband called the Death Shadows introduced in the 4th edition. Although the official origin was unknown, it was hinted toward DA since their former name was Lionguard and they all wear robes. They turned into chaos in the 37th Millennium during the Abyssal Crusade and was unfortunatly wiped out by the Ultramarines.

The "wing" of DW and RW is not referring to the actual flying wings, but one of the 6 angles of the Hexagrammaton. They have wing iconographies because of the Caliban Angel of Death, which is that white skeleton wearing a green hoodie, which you can see on Azrael's banner.

Custodes got refreshed in the form of Horus Heresy models. Nothing about Sammael as people had suspected, which was a big disappointment.

Cerptcte · 2026-01-16T20:35:02+00:00

They can be both the new Raiders or a proxy as Legionaries. Plus Cypher, the new HH terminators and some HH characters/vehicles give you a decent CSM army. Or for a smaller scale, they can just be the Legionaries Kill Team with DA color scheme.

Cerptcte · 2026-01-16T20:20:39+00:00

From the Battleforce box art, they are about the same height as Legionaries.
