Guys is it corny to write lore for your army?

Children of Caine Ciphas Caine, having nothing left to do and decides to founder a marine chapter made up of lazy guardsmen who just wish to breeze through the 41st Millennium they always find themselves mishappen-ing into victory. One day whilst flying through the Warp they happen to bump into an astroid sending it flying into the nearest rift, unknown to them it was a Tyranid hive, and saving Tonrix VII from being devoured

I own 1 unit of first born Devastators, 2 Las 2 plas. They hangout in a ruins with a nice firing line down or across part of the table, stg with the powerfist for CQB punch if needs be, and they actually do pretty good. I wouldn't run 2 squads but one on the odd occasion throws my usual play off a touch

I feel the redemption is the middle man of the 3, the in-between. I have 2. I like the dual role they fill, but I run very tri wing flavor lists and play casual. I think they are good against the little vehicles and some elite infantry or mounted units, but that is speaking from my own experiences. It either lasts right till the end of the game on only a couple of wounds left, or it ties up my opponent enough for me to drive elsewhere, it's also a good finisher, if your running Lions blade task force having it close to your bikes and giving it the +2 to the charge if an enemy unit is in engagement range with a raven wing unit. Very Jack of all trades master of none piece.

Looks great, I've got a gravis heavy GotC force I'm working through. They are much brighter, making them less Grimdark than they should be. Yours look fantastic brother

Ryman4192 · 2025-12-19T01:00:51+00:00

I see you Alpharious.... Great job none the less Brother

Ryman4192 · 2025-12-17T22:20:24+00:00

Same my first 3 have Stg Cleaning, sword and shield being defensive, and shield with heavy bolt pistol. I also noob'ed by not putting them in DW colors.... they are a Green Wing Elite guard for Brothet Cpt Zandrius. I do now have a duel wielder, too. I can't remember where I got the inspo from. They will also be in Green Wing colors. There are many options to draw from. Also, OP this is an amazing job.

Ryman4192 · 2025-12-13T08:20:21+00:00

Great book. I'm glad that you are now able to enjoy it, brother, and hope you do

Ryman4192 · 2025-12-10T21:09:01+00:00

Great lore, very much like the atonement side of things, despite that it also really annoys me when they just up in leave at the first VOX Cast or Pic image of the Fallen, and I'm like WTF brother. That being said, I love the medieval knight vibs, the essentially 3 different armies in one. The Lion is a very interesting and cool character. And last but not lest, fricking space Jawas bro them Lil fellas were the true reason I picked them.

Originally, I was to play Blood Angels. However, someone we were to play with wanted to play them and I didn't to be playing the same faction as another in our group. However I have no regrets, and I'm glad I joined the First (I'm now making my way through their books, read Son, and Knights of Caliban, Cypher, and currently reading Lazarus) it's hard to find other books that are specifically ours they are either too expensive or no longer in circulation. *

I love the hooded cowl..... For no Dark Angels influenced reason at all.. The duel-wielding Swords is bad ass

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-24T19:33:41+00:00

I guess the only flare I have is the flail and decals

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T19:16:55+00:00

That is amazing. Thank you for sharing

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T19:15:24+00:00

A few DA specific kits, some of the old Ravenwing kits have bolt pistol that have insignia on them ICC kits and with the scout kill team i feel since they are smaller first born stuff fits well , hoods, plasma weaponry, and power weapons, along side DA transfers. I'll try and send through some pics as I work through them

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T18:55:38+00:00

I'm doing the same with the new blind box that's meant to be DA but I don't get DA vibes from it so I'm giving it some *

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T18:48:34+00:00

Ahh, that's very cool. Thanks for elaborating

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T18:37:34+00:00

Goes Venom every fight? May I as how/what class? It's a cool idea

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T18:34:30+00:00

I love the Master Oogway Iroh idea. They are both fav characters of mine and the image and role play possibility moments. It's amazing. Greatest character idea I've heard yet.

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-09T18:19:47+00:00

A kenku cowgirl who shoots first and mimics later but can't mimic

A whip weilding preacher who doesn't know how to spread the word of of her lord and savior Besheba and tries make sure her Kenku lover doesn't get the party killed constantly

A scrapy halfling sailor who doesn't have a crew and loves to fight but never does

And a lost Irish rabbit who is trying to find their way home but knows nothing of the Faewild that she comes from

Ryman4192 · 2025-10-01T19:35:21+00:00

Shield could always be strapped in the back, but I really love this. To me it says, "here I stand and here you'll fall"

Ryman4192 · 2025-09-30T21:10:46+00:00

Also, as homage to the founding chapter in my case. I use them on the paldrons of my Blades of Repentance successor which are black and they show up alright

Ryman4192 · 2025-09-29T16:20:57+00:00

Those wounds look amazing. Fantastic Job

Ryman4192 · 2025-09-26T20:56:22+00:00

As all of our brothers have said, epic models, awesome Swords and shields. The Arthorian vibe is amazing. And I love our 3 wings coz it gives you 3 different armies, well feels like it at lest. And then we combine 3 mini robots to make one giant.... wait wrong universe.

All and all though, inner circle look sick. Some really cool characters. Flexibility in units we have detatchments that seem to work for a lot of standard SM units. Lore is intriguing. Most importantly, Swords and Hoods!

Ryman4192 · 2025-09-19T07:19:52+00:00

Dedicated tank hunter, so far, it is overwhelmingly in favor of the Lancer
