    Have B&C really got something like this going? I'm crushed, I thought I had a truly genuine idea there.

    Conversions aplenty, if you have a silver star

    Re: Stand and be Counted

    the idea is we have a warseer SM chapter, iconography and all

    then every member creates a model of themselves and posts it for this chapter....

    at least thats what im guessing

    @TWB: im aming to get one but im a poor student


    edit :http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/f...howtopic=85189

    link to scumy B&C it was a chalange.. as there is legio B&C will go hunting for that now

    cant really find much but they go by the name 'legio B&C' and are a dethwatch branch rather than a specific chapter, as that takes alot more organisation.. so it is different TWB!!!!

    Negative, battlebarge, chapter, it's all done. It's all to do with the "Spare Marine principal", that is to say that everybody who plays or collects GW stuff will at some time aquire a Marine that is surplus to requirements (Unless you are Called Sylass ), this is the Marine we want.

    I'm in.

    And of course, it would be cool if your model represented your rank on Warseer. But then we'd have 800 chaplains and 200 Chapter Masters. So I guess we should reset the post counts

    A member is someone that has registered an account on this forum, i.e. everyone that posts.

    A Guilder is someone who has paid a subscription to this site, as the only way to cover bandwidth expenses is through donations from users (the reason Portent died was largely the huge financial drain it became on Pete's account)


    CELS, it's pretty much established that Nick's going to be the chapter master, as he is the owner of the site, and our boss

    I was just kidding. You could let all the Guilders be Marines and all us puny members be serfs, I don't care. It just sounds like a fun project

    Re: Stand and be Counted

    Theres something I don't quite get here... is it a picture or a model that needs sending? It's not explained very clearly as far as I can tell.

    Depending on the above and what the chapter colours are I maybe up for helping.

    Re: Stand and be Counted

    Mikari (Oh you'd be the coolest member of these forums if your name were spelt 'Makari', I would raise you as 'The Man'!) the project is to create a Warseer-produced army. As in produced by everyone, going by the "There's too many bloody space marines, they'll be happy to unload their spares" theory


    Purely as a fun exercise, the plan, to my knowledge, is to get everyone willing to help, to get together and enjoy created the Official Warseer Chapter of Space Marines, both in background and in physical terms (although probably not a full chapter, but if it's popular enough, well...)

    Everyone gets to have their say in deciding on the colour scheme, chapter markings etc., it gets put to a vote and so on.
    Then everyone involved paints up a marine and sends it in to whichever poor sap is in charge of the logistics.

    As is my understanding at least.
    I reckon it'll be fun, but I'll have to fish around for a spare beekee to paint up (hard pill for an Ork to swallow)

    I could help out with stuff like fluff and chapter iconography but I probably won't be sending any minis in.
