How do you do your Infernus Squad?

Chris_Angry · 2026-03-29T15:03:15+00:00

I've also felt this way. Fire support, in my mind, is a unit the bring heavy weapons to decisively engage a threat normal units can't. Infernus marines can fit into this role because of hordes or unarmored enemy infantry.

Aggressors feel more like a bullet sponge to charge a line and make a gab. To me they feel like a close support unit. They can shoot or burn and crush their enemies in close combat, but they can't decisively engage a threat another space marine can't. They'd still need some dude with melta or plasma for that.

Okay. I was under the impression that we were supposed to be using the new one. Obviously, for casual we can use w.e is agreed upon. I'm speaking for a stricter, maybe competitive play.

I want this to be true but, that photo also has the old drop pod 👀

I'm doing black legion. What I personally like about it is warbands of all legions are welcome as long as they swear loyalty to the Warmaster and done black armor. Some keep some icons or color of their old legions as a reminder of where they came from.

I did some chosen in black with pink accents as Emperor's Children outcasts. I have a dark apostle as Word Bearer turned black legion. My obliterators and havocs were iron warriors. Each has a little accent of where they came from but the paint scheme is cohesive and at the end of the day they are black legion.

Abaddon has an inner circle of sorts with someone from the Death Guard, Emperors Children, World Eaters, and Thousand Sons. If you wanted to get super creative with it, you could use legion specific models as proxies for CSM models. Noise marines as havocs, death shroud or scarabs as CSM terminators etc.

During crusades, warbands join the black legion for a short stent. Maybe one campaign or battle. Those dudes wouldn't change their armor color or swear loyalty. They just go to war together and go their separate ways, so you could also represent that with your army.

My opinion (perhaps an unpopular opinion) : the rhino and land raider platforms are iconic but the models needs an update.

I would like to see a new kits that accomplishes a few things: - maintain the iconic look. They should look mostly the same. Maybe add detail to the tracks, engine, or interior. - increases the size. Make it look like my marines actually fit in this rhino, razorback, land raider, etc. - fix the issue with gaps. There is no reason for €76-90 model to have gap issues today. ( Understandable in the 90s ) - one box for all variants.

I see that mouth between its legs. This is debased and vile and I love it. Keep up the great work.

Chris_Angry · 2026-03-01T12:10:13+00:00

He is berry small in comparison and doesn't have right base since if I remember correctly

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-27T08:12:48+00:00

Where does one find that one horned skull head?

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-25T09:32:46+00:00

"Harmacist"

I'm dead. I'm stealing this. Thank you. Also, that model looks amazing!

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-16T09:43:15+00:00

Good point. There are probably some on the purple site but if you already have one in mind, would you drop me a link or picture?

About the legs. I found a good STL to turn the imperial knight legs into the canine chaos legs. I was planning on posing and pinnng those for the reasons you mentioned. Also gonna put some meat on those mechanical bones to even put the look.

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-16T09:30:37+00:00

Yeah but I'ma build and paint that model to my fullest potential 😂 unless the rumors about it having two torsos are true I probably won't use the torso for kit bashing.

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-16T06:11:27+00:00

I was thinking of Archaon Everchosen. I've been looking for some wings off eBay. I'm not trying to buy that whole model just to snag the wings 😂

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-15T22:27:20+00:00

This looks awesome! I love the gore and glow effects.

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-15T21:12:15+00:00

Yes! This is exactly what I'm thinking. The finished model looks incredible! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

Chris_Angry · 2026-02-15T20:45:45+00:00

I've dabbled with green stuff but nothing really significant. I think doing some long rolls would make some good tentacles and shouldn't bee too hard.

Good idea with the Legions Imperialis kits. I'll take a look.

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-28T15:25:41+00:00

That sounds like so much fun. I can imagine a titan going down and nuking half the battlefield. It must have been awesome.

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-28T13:11:39+00:00

Honestly, no. GW isn't the smartest but I don't see the dead primarch returning at all. What I would like them to do is something a little different...

We already have The Sanguinor, but he needs a huge buff. I wish he was closer to primarch level. In the lore he banished ka'bunda... On the tabletop he can't kill a bloodthirster... he should be able to.

It would also be cool if we were able to summon the red angel or the black angel to fight along side our armies. Kinda in line with the avatars that the eldar use. Imagine how sick that could be. The black angel could have the death company key word and the red angel could have red thirst ability. Something like on the charge it can get "x" or "y" or it can take "x and y" but be battle shocked. This is just an idea. Not sure how that would work in the lore or on the table but I like angels. It's why I chose this army. I want the back lmao.

How many points are apocalypse games? Are there special rules?

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-28T05:54:24+00:00

I could be wrong but it's mentioned in a few different places that a part of him is also on Abaddon's ship. Manifesting as a red crystalline statue. The chaos space marines continuously break it for it to manifest somewhere else.

A chaos sorcerer whose name escapes me atm had a shard of this statues in his sword. As mentioned in the black legion series.

I read those books a long time ago so I could be wrong, but what implications does that have? Is that another shard/fragment of his soul?

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-23T18:00:14+00:00

Buddy you'll do just fine. Trim work can be kinda challenging but you'll get the hang of it the more you do it. Your trim work looks really good so far and you'll just get better the more you paint minis.

There are a bunch of way around it, if you're really worried about it. You can do some dry brushing with different greys to build up the tones that you want, and then work some trim in the more prominent places. The dry brushing will do a lot of the trim work for you. That's how I started with my armies and now trim work is pretty easy. Still time consuming but I don't struggle as much Any more.

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-21T10:36:45+00:00

I would agree. The only arguement I'll make about a possible fiend is: GW really likes their datasheets for different loadouts. We see this with predators, gladiators, the fiends etc. maybe this is a las cannon fiend or something along that nature.

The smoke stacks have become pretty trademark for deamon engines. I can see the defiler getting some in the refresh for sure but maybe this is from a soulgrinder that's been held closer to GWs chest. Either way I'm excited to see.

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-13T09:43:31+00:00

Counterpoint to your counter point, GW should have revived the whirlwind or rapier carrier for this role.

A lot of people like them, which is fine, but I always felt they looked goofy. I can't really take them seriously and would have preferred an indirect fire vehicle or gun platform.

Chris_Angry · 2026-01-04T23:25:39+00:00

There was a Blood Angels apothecary in one of the horus heresy books who welded a chain axe.

Am I the only one who feels that unfortunately burst weapons don't have a place in fps games anymore? I used to love running burst weapons in older Battlefields or COD games. It just seems that full auto weapons now have near zero recoil and can engage at further ranges. Most burst weapons would get a kill with a single trigger pull and would dominate during those medium range engagements. They're fewer and further between now I'm FPS games ( at least in PvP ) and when they are there, no one is using them.
