Alpha Platoon: LotD



Alpha Platoon is the first troop choice of my Legion of the Dragon forces. Armed with Autoguns, Flamers and Heavy Bolters the platoon is a regular line platoon. The Command squad is a full melta unit built for anti armor and support. The Platoon is now fully battle ready. When I use the Al’Rahem special character this platoon will inherit the heavy weapon squads from Zeta Platoon , usually 2 lascannon squads that need to be on the battle line and not outflanking.

Anarchy's Heart Motor Pool (Part 3)

Another small update in the Motor Pool today. This time on the Predator conversion. Not a whole lot is going on right now, since I am trying to get the Rhinos done before I tackle this monster. I little bit of Necron Abyss base coat has been applied. Just thought I would share some pics.





Enjoy! :)

Greater Daemon of Nurgle (Part 1)



Along with my recently finished Plague Bearers, I picked up this goodie. A metal Greater Daemon of Nurgle. After finishing my lesser daemons, I began the process of adding this awesome model to the forces of the Grey Death Legion. I've used my Daemon Prince as a Greater Daemon before and its a blast to use and the enemy run for the hills. Now its time to get a proper model for use as a Greater Daemon. While the ForgeWorld one is awesome looking, I wasn't going to pay for one yet, but this guy fills the gap real well. Now that the assembly part is completed, its time to paint!


Big nasty slimy blade!


Behold his slime trail....this is the end....

Enjoy! :)

Anarchy's Heart Motor Pool (Part 2)



A small update on my Alpha Legion transports. It's been a while and they have stat around long enough waiting for some paint work. I have given them a nice coating of necron abyss, and have begun work on the legion scheme. Last weekend I took one of the transports and finished it completely to get a good view of the finished product. I still want to put some transfers on the tank to add more to it then just the scales and blue.


The side of the finished tank, I washed some of the silver parts like the smoke stacks and the wear on the ramp to show rust and burnt metal.


The other two tanks undergoing painting, slowly but surly getting there...

Enjoy! :)

Servants of Decay: 2K Renegade List

So recently I have been giving the Renegade and Heretics forge world army list a look over. When the first list came out in Imperial Armour 5 I was not impressed with it, and that list used the older edition of IG for its parent list. While I liked the idea of a renegade list, I chose to build mine based on the IG Codex, which leads to my current Legion of the Dragon, Alpha Legion themed infantry army. This new look into the R&H list is with the most current version "Servants of Decay" a nurgle themed list. Even though it still has that nasty leadership handicap, I like this list and the options it comes with. It's another cross between the Lost and the Damned and IG armylist with a bit of a twist. This list gives me an excuse to play with another FW armylist and also to theme an infantry force for my current Death Guard army to join forces with. So I drew up a 2K list using the R&H: Servants of Decay list found in IAV8.

The combination of Plague Marines and Infantry should prove to be a fun army to try and master. 30 PMs is no laughing matter, and the heavy weapon heavy infantry should provide me with support to push the marines closer to any enemy for an assault. The theme of the army will be mercenary troops. I still don't have a name for the army. So any thoughts?

Unifying the Undivided Chaos



So, Ron over at FTW put out a call for us blogger to post how we go about unifying our armies. For my CSM and Allies bases are perhaps the biggest point to a unified theme. My Alpha Legion, Legion of the Dragon, and Grey Death Legion all sport ash waste style bases, as does my Subjugator titan. Breaking it down a little more, both my Alpha's and Dragon forces are themed for the same army color theme. The Alpha Legion being a traitor legion, and the Legion of the Dragon being their auxiliary infantry troops. The paint scheme for both forces is also similar, with lots of blues and bolter being used along with greens. Enjoy the examples below....

Arkos the Faithless


Alpha Legion Dread


Alpha Terminators


Alpha Obliterators


Renegade Commander


Rogue Psyker


Renegade Command Squad


Grey Death Legion, Death Guard


Nurgle Daemons and Prince


Even Warmachines....Subjugator Titan

Alpha Legion Lesser Daemons



Arkos looked over at his commander "If it comes to a crisis point we can always call on our brothers from beyond."
Lord Bruticus shook his head "My terminators are more then enough for this xeno scum, we don't need to disturb our fallen brothers."
The Shredder grinned "I say do it now Arkos, the more options we have for attack."
Arkos shook his head "Now where is the challenge in that if we call in all our forces to strike, we will use only what we need to win this battle, it has always been our way of battle in the Alpha Legion."

Daemons are an almost unknown in all of the Alpha Legions battle doctrines, although as part of the codex it is an option to all chaos forces. Last year I got my hands on a box of the metal Chaos Furies Daemons when I picked up my Plague Bearers. So what to do with these guys, I can't even use them in the Daemons Codex really, so I though about using the squad as an additional unit for the Alpha Legion, more so for looks since its rare that I employ such units for the army. It didn't take me long to paint them up and I added a little green to link them with the Legion.


The Green gives them a little bit of a Dragon look.


Don't really care for the models pose, but I did what I could...











Enjoy!
