So here beginith the tale of the Nova Legion.
Well, not quite. The important part of their back story can be read on The Conclave, in the threads
Conclave of Hydraphur(at the very tale end) and
GHEP:Lorna.
With the story ever continuing in
A Tale Of Two Legions.
But anyway, enough about the background, this is a topic for the army being created.
Today my CSM Army Box (+ my paper version of the Codex) finally arrived after, shall we say, considerable delays. But I don't really mind, the price was more than worth the 3 month delay caused by the company moving premises. And I was rather busy with life anyway.
I'll be repainting my old loyalists who have seen few battlefields in their lifetime.
List of unbuilt kits currently owned:
Tactical squad - 10men
Blood Claws - 10men

So as far as I can currently remember, that is the sum total of my marine collection. I've got a lot of painting and modelling ahead of me.
I don't have an army list in mind yet, but things will be very flexible and i'm currently looking at a points total of at least 4500 anyway with this lot.
I'm off University the entirety of next week, so there will be progress. Unlike every other project I've ever thought up, this one will be completed!!
I hope....
Edit:
Here is what the Nova Legions colour scheme was when they were still loyalist and under the name the Nova Lords. Expect the Nova Legion paint scheme to be similar but different! =P
