I'm just a simple man trying to make his way in the galaxy on the internet. I blog about Warhammer, covering my hobby progress and discussion about the latest news for 40K and Horus Heresy (because AoS sucks).
[Credit: The Paint Crusader] With slightly more detailed plan of action set out in the form of ‘let’s make an Armies on Parade entry’, I now have to actually decide what I should do for the board. My heart is set on it being a Heresy-era display, as we don’t see enough Heresy stuff as is, and it gives me an excuse opportunity to start collecting a 30K/40K force. As of current, I have a couple of ideas I am considering working on. They are (drumroll please): The Siege of Terra Defence Force Considering this is the climatic finale to the Heresy, it seems fitting to represent it in my board. It would likely be a mix of the Blood Angels and Imperial Fists Legions, as both were present in large numbers during the Siege. Setting it on Terra also offers some good scenery for the board, probably a section of defensive wall garrisoned by the Imperial Fists, with the Blood Angels standing in front of the wall, ready to launch an attack at anyone who comes close. Isstvan III Lo...
[Credit: The Paint Crusader] As I'm sure many of you in the loop will know by now, there have been several rumours flying round regarding the release of what's been dubbed 'Heresy 2.0'. In this article I'll take a look at the rumours themselves, my opinion on them, and how they could affect the Heresy. The Rumours There are two main 'sources' for these. The first comes from Anuj Malhotra, a former Forgeworld employee who appears to have worked on the Horus Heresy. When he left, he announced: "I love the passion guys. It has been a difficult year due to Covid and Brexit. Great things are coming, hang in there!" This is a fairly enigmatic message, though we could expect that the 'great things' are probably to do with the Heresy, and so the suggestion from those inside is that a big project is in the works. The second source is from everyone's favourite: an anonymous poster on B&C. They make a list of 7 points, stating that: "1....
[Credit: The Paint Crusader] Continuing on from yesterday’s post , I have narrowed my ideas down further. I’m either going to do a Defence of Terra board, or the Sons of Horus after Isstvan. Let’s take a deeper look at both of these ideas: Defence of Terra The final and largest battle of the Heresy takes place on Terra itself, pitting marines from almost every Traitor Legion against the Blood Angels, Imperial Fists, White Scars, Imperial Army and the Talons of the Emperor. A board based on this would focus on the Blood Angels and Imperial Fists, who will be garrisoning a section of The Eternity Wall. The Fists will likely be composed of heavy support squads, with some breachers and maybe some Phalanx Warders. In contrast, the Angels with have a more mobile harassment force, featuring assault marines and members of the Dawnbreaker Cohort. I haven’t decided on what sort of HQ/leader I want them to have. Sons of Horus After the events of Isstvan III and V, the Sons of Horus are now ...
