Skaralax's Warband - 40K Terra

Sister Sin · 03-14-2008

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

Until pretty recently I played World Eaters exclusive, despite owning several other armies as I mentioned in my introduction when joining. I'm going to give a brief overview of my World Eaters warband shortly in fact, and later some of the ridiculously large amount of background I've written for them over the years since RoC came out, in the appropriate place naturally.

First I should mention I am not playing them now; the new Chaos 'Dex and I do not get along at all. I respect those who love it, but we shall agree to disagree because I do not and I won't get into that argument here.

Without further ado (this is the entire force, not a list):

Skaralax, Daemon Prince of Khorne

Tigrus, World Eaters Captain/Lord

Clitus, Lieutenant and Champion on a Juggernaut

8 World Eaters Terminators led by Tiberius the Sanguine

8 World Eaters Chosen of Khorne, led by Marius

8 World Eaters on bikes, led by Brutus Fellblade

Dreadnought Belisarius with 2 DCCW

Dreadnought Crassus with 2 DCCW

Dreadnought Atilus with plasma cannon.

12+ squads of 8 World Eaters with chain axes and bolt pistols, each squad with two plasma pistols and including an Aspiring Champion. There are more than this, but I can't recall the exact number since I haven't used them all at the same time.

2 units of 8 Bloodletters, used only twice in fact.

1 unit of Flesh Hounds, used only once.

8 Blood Slaugherers of Khorne, usually used as possessed unfortunately.

12+ Rhinos, about half of them Destroyer types.

1 World Eaters Land Raider, although I never have used it since I can't get all of the Terminators in it naturally. If I did I'd probably have it possessed or something.

1 World Eaters Predator demonically possessed, used once after which I didn't care for it.

N' Kartus Bloodthirster of Khorne

For this army there are some things under construction, although back burner at the moment.

Banelord

Angron, World Eaters Primarch, both pre and post corruption. This one is an interesting if difficult project.

Scratchbuilt Dreadclaws to hold the whole force.

I'm leaving out something, I can feel it, but I'd have to go look. Anyway, that's more or less it.

Blurry pics of Belisarius and Skaralax can be seen on the photobucket link I put in the other category.

what are you trying to build the whole legion
j/k

pics are a must

Brother Warchild · 03-14-2008

Sounds pretty cool,I have always liked the World Eaters and would really like to see pics your stuff.

Sister Sin · 03-14-2008

Thanks. The Banelord, Dreadclaws, and Angron are all WIP although at the moment they are back burner since I don't play with the army since the new Codex was released.

I'll dig them out and post some photos of some of the models; like as not the 'Thirster, which I hacked into something like 8 pieces and reassembled into an entirely different setup, the characters and so on.

The Dreadclaws are one of those things I plan to make templates of. Angron is a complete sculpt from armature on up. We'll see how that turns out. LOL

Sir_Servo · 03-14-2008

Good Lord women you don't mess around do you.

That is one impressive list of units...
If only my Soon to be Tzneech list could match that... give me a moment while I whipe up some of my drool...

Any ways, as for not liking the new dex, well I agree with you on one front. It killed my Nurgle List. 28 Plauge Bearers now useless, Cool Nurgle Deamon Prince with lots of Mutations now a nice paper weight. on and on and on...

I was very spiteful of it at first, but now that I have gazed at its pages for longe enough I finally have found a list that I think is going to be just as competative. I am switching to Tzneech, 4+ invulnarble saves and bolters with AP 3 makes me a happy panda. Don't give up on your list just learn to adapt to it. Sutburness is the key to victory, but should not prevent you from taking more blood for the blood god!

My two cents,
Servo

PS: Just check at how sweet Chosen and Termies can be, especially with Marks of your chosen gods. and Deamon Weapons are sweet.

Rellik · 03-15-2008

wow! cool stuff. death to the false emperor

Sister Sin · 03-15-2008

Hail Sir Servo! Nope, when I take on a list I don't muck around. Especially with World Eaters or Salamanders.

I'm glad you found a way to use the new 'dex. I respect anyone who does so. For me though it isn't fixable; I am not a Chaos player so much as a World Eaters player...and my World Eaters don't fly. I can play a Khornate force with World Eaters in it, but I can't play pure World Eaters. It's a personal thing and I hold no one else to it save myself. World Eaters don't lose their Faith in Khorne because someone shot a few of them. Terminators of the World Eaters shouldn't be less effective than the foot sloggers. I can paint Khornate characters and such as World Eaters, but the paint job does not the Legion make. I want my leaders to BE World Eaters, not play at it.

So ya know, it isn't for me, but I cheer you on. I am a World Eaters player, I couldn't care less about Chaos as a whole. I don't play Khorne, I play World Eaters. Or I did. I occasionally still do with our group since they don't care if I use the older Dex. I never abused it as some did anyway.

I was perusing my RoC books again, along with the 2e and other codices. The background for them has been remarkably consistent over the years saving this latest one. I particularly like the progression of the Legion from pretty much standard organization through to discarding everything save CCW. I think the Index Astartes could have been better written, but on the whole it was pretty cool.

So while I still work on them I don't actually play them much anymore. I have the Salamanders and my Battle Sisters for that. LOL You could say the new 'dex turned me loyalist. *chuckles* I thought, however, that folks here would like to see some of the work I have done and am doing with this Legion.

Fortune and the Gods of Chaos smile upon your forces my friend.

Totally spaced the fact that you play other armies... *slaps himself on the head* I even remember you mentioning them on your intro post.

I take it that you don't play in a lot of tournys, or if you do you bring one of your other armies... once again the ones that I totally forgot that you play.

So ya know, it isn't for me, but I cheer you on. I am a World Eaters player, I couldn't care less about Chaos as a whole. I don't play Khorne, I play World Eaters. Or I did. I occasionally still do with our group since they don't care if I use the older Dex. I never abused it as some did anyway.

I totally sympathize with you my Nurgle Army had 7 units of 7 models, or at least multiples of 7 in the case of the Demons. *sigh* I loved that army... but for now I am putting those in storage and playing a new Tzneech list with the new dex. Even though it won't be a truely peer Tzneech list the rules allow a lot of interesting possiblities, even if the dex did take a way much of the customization.

Huh... you learn something new every day, apperently you can't just post a quote that you have added your own comments to, you must write something out side of the quote box... and Knowing is half the battle.

Sister Sin · 03-15-2008

There was a time when I played in tournaments, a year or two I guess. Just for the experience really. I did not like it at all; the level of whatever it takes to win was more headache than fun for me and I play strictly for fun. So I don't bother with tournaments.

These days my game is Apocalypse. Something that lets me use my entire armies, not just segments of it. I've always liked really huge games, but I like the way Apocalypse is set up to work, sort of levels the gaming a bit, or rather, gives a vaguely standard framework to work from.

My armies are so big that Apoc is the only game that really lets me use them.

Sister Sin

BrainDeleted · 03-15-2008

Well If you back shelf these boys for a year or two there should be a World Eaters 'dex or at least a daemon codex...Someone kick Stitch this way so she can explain it.

Sister Sin · 03-15-2008

Thanks.

However, I don't really use Daemons. The only Daemon I have used more than twice is the Bloodthirster, and of course the Daemon Prince himself.

Not interested in a Daemon Codex at all. And it isn't going to be interchangeable with other Codices, or so says rumor, even if I were interested. I play World Eaters Legion, not Khornate Marines. Not a big difference to most but it matters to me.

As for a World Eaters or Cult Legion Codex, I won't hold my breath. I've played the game too long and seen GW fail to complete Codex lines too often to look ahead much.

That being said, if they DO release one, I'll most assuredly have a read and a go with it, no questions. At the moment, the World Eaters are shelved except for the rare game with some folks who let me use the older Codex.

I did have a few games using the new Dex...it just confirmed my feelings in general. I did buy it though; gotta have a complete collection as it were.

Sister Sin

Dragoon King · 03-21-2008

Oh, I hope you get a Legion codex soon, Sin. I had no ideal you loved Khorne THAT much!

Sister Sin · 03-21-2008

As I say, for many years I played World Eaters almost exclusively. Love their background; there's a tragic element to it that goes beyond the usual amount.

Converted them all to Chain Axes, carefully considered what would work with background, what might likely be found in a given warband, etc.

Well, I'm into the storage area tomorrow so I'll try to remember to haul out the World Eaters box and get some pics N'Kartus and the Dreads, perhaps Tigrus, Clitus, and Tiberius too. I'm really feeling the urge to nab some of the new plastic termies and remake Tiberius' lot...True Scaled. We shall see though.

Oh yes, I had forgotten, I have a pair of Brass Scorpions under construction.

Sister Sin, Blood Queen of Khorne.

Dragoon King · 03-21-2008

Ha, I knew you'd be wanting so Brass Scorpions! I really do hope the Legion codices come soon, so you'll be happy with the ol skullspiltting zerks again! Dang it GW, bring back the Bloodthirster! I mean come on, Sanguinius didn't kill a Generic GD! Maybe the Daemon codex has it in their somewhere....

Sister Sin · 03-22-2008

Right then, I fetched my World Eaters out of storage so pictures of some of them can probably be up by tomorrow night or Monday.

Good deal, can't wait to see them. Saddens me to know GW screwed up the legions and made ya put em in storage. Hopefully this will be remedied soon! Oh I can't wait for the return of Worldeaters termies!

Corillian · 03-23-2008

Awesome army, you must be building a whole legion...

Yes!!!!Pictures, let me seee the pictures...

God_Grinder · 04-04-2008

GW cares not for people's old armies they only want you to buy new ones... so they restructure the rules so people will have to rebuild there armies, or (they hope) will move on to another army all together. from what i hear is that GW is trying to eliminate the god sentric chaos armies in both 40k and fantasy, witch goes against what 20 years of loved fluff. i do understand though 40k has become so dumbed down that they want generic rules for everything, insted of having specal rules for every legion and such. so you can play the worldeaters pure and true but ther just is no more specal rules to seperate them. they realy should stop dragging ther asses and start puting these books out. or rethink the way they do them all together. i myself am very unsaticefied with GW's (tactics) as of late. i am wanting to start a new fantasy army but with all the changes they are making to chaos right now i have to wait months on end till they get ther **** together and all the changes are made before i can do so. sory for the rant just throwing in my 2 cents. guess that was more like a whole quarter lol

Sister Sin · 04-04-2008

Each person has to handle it as best they may.

For me, World Eaters are unplayable in the new Codex; any model that runs or loses its faith in Khorne is no World Eater, they are just Marines in World Eater colors. Other people see it differently. So my army is shelved except in rare games of Apocalypse where I use the old Codex/ IA article. It will remain that way until such a time as I find the rules sufficiently acceptable that I can actually believe ALL of my miniatures are World Eaters (except of course the Bloodthirster and company). Not just some of them.

I still build stuff for them now and then, but it isn't up front stuff since I am not playing them. Mostly these days I work on my Salamanders, whose days I figure are numbered too as soon as the new (and unnecessary in my opinion) SM Codex comes out. If the Salamanders are once again relegated to standardized one flavor status, they'll get shelved too most probably.

I play for the Background and that is the only thing that keeps me interested in the game and the armies. Without it, the armies are just little plastic men which can be more cheaply had with other games if I were interested.

But there it is; it is different for each player. This is how I see it at this point in time, and only how I see it. I don't pretend to speak for anyone other than myself.

To each their own.

oooo...the Black Legion....hehe. You know I came real close to playing them. But the 'Children were so outlandish and reflected my love of LOUD music that I had to take them. as for the World Eaters, god bless those little Axe Wielding Psychopaths....lol

For me, World Eaters are unplayable in the new Codex; any model that runs or loses its faith in Khorne is no World Eater, they are just Marines in World Eater colors. Other people see it differently. So my army is shelved except in rare games of Apocalypse where I use the old Codex/ IA article. It will remain that way until such a time as I find the rules sufficiently acceptable that I can actually believe ALL of my miniatures are World Eaters (except of course the Bloodthirster and company). Not just some of them. I still build stuff for them now and then, but it isn't up front stuff since I am not playing them. Mostly these days I work on my Salamanders, whose days I figure are numbered too as soon as the new (and unnecessary in my opinion) SM Codex comes out. If the Salamanders are once again relegated to standardized one flavor status, they'll get shelved too most probably. I play for the Background and that is the only thing that keeps me interested in the game and the armies. Without it, the armies are just little plastic men which can be more cheaply had with other games if I were interested. But there it is; it is different for each player. This is how I see it at this point in time, and only how I see it. I don't pretend to speak for anyone other than myself. To each their own.
