A place to list your armies, projects and tips for starters.

im currently making red corsairs army with a twist. the minority of troops will be normal chaos guys while the rest are a collection of different imperium chapters with a red X over their original inconography.

im yet to start but i want these guys

1 huron blackheart
1 chaos marine squad
1 havoc squad
2 marine squad which i will customize to be made of several chapters
1 renegade blood angels squad (cause my BF is a blood angels player so i want to have something cool as if we're rival chapters)
1 renegade blood angels captain as my secound in command

vehicles:
1 chaos rhino
1 renegade imperium land raider (space wolves cause his secound choice of army was SW)
6 chaos bikes (hounds of huron (crct?)

I used to collect Dark Angels, never played but painting them was a lot of fun. I played one game once with my Tau army, I seem to remember winning.

Big 40k fan here! :wavey:

I've thought about getting an army for some time, but it's way too expensive a hobby for me. Besides, I don't like painting. I'm a big fan of the universe though. I've spent a great many hours on both Dawn of War games (Dawn of War 1 with Firestorm Over Kronus installed is best), greatly enjoyed two playthroughs of Space Marine and I love the Horus Heresy novels. Most of them anyway, a few of them are really bad. The stuff written by Dan Abnett, Graham McNeill, Ben Counter and Aaron Demski-Bowden is pure gold though.

No, it's the symbol of Clan Gangrel, the shape shifting vampires from the World of Darkness setting. It would serve just as well as a Space Wolves banner though. :happy:

The Space Wolves are one of my favourite Legions though. Them, and the World Eaters and Thousand Sons.

almost a 1000 alas their not full companies, that would be over 5000 if we are going by 40k companies, in real army terms it would only be about 600

Epic thread necromancy!

I just finished reading, Dark Apostle and I just started on Dark Disciple. Those books are pretty good.

I want to start an army, probably Chaos, but I'm not sure what legion to pick. Kinda torn between Iron Warriors and the Word Bearers.
