    the Deathwing

    We are the Emperor's wrath!
    Let the blood of the unclean act as
    an offering to the Lion's shade


    In an attempt to rationalise my GW collection and make some money I got my Dark Angels out of storage recently and sold off a lot of them. I decided to keep a 1500-2000 point force as they are one of my favourite armies, in spite of the current Codex and the terrible Descent of Angels...

    After some thought and a few games I have a WIP list.

    This Log will document my attempts to paint up the entirety of the remaining force and will show new models as and when I get them/ change my list.

    without further ado, pictures:

    Belial


    Interrogator Chaplain


    Standard Bearer


    Scout veteran sergeant


    The list is as follows:


    HQ
    Belial, SB/PS

    Interrogator Chaplain

    Elites
    10 Scouts, 4 shotguns, 5 snipers, power fist, plasma pistol, meltabombs

    Troops
    5 Terminators, assault cannon, 2 lightning claws
    5 Terminators, assault cannon, 1 lightning claw, chainfist
    5 Terminators, assault cannon, 2 lightning claws, 2 thunder hammers
    apothecary, standard

    Heavy Support
    10 Devastators, 2 missile launchers, 1 plasma cannon, 1 Lascannon

    about 1500 points, needs tinkering with

    in games I usually combat squad the scouts to pin two units a turn with the snipers and combat squad the devastators in order to shred more enemy armour.

    thoughts?

    I really like the Vet scout sergeant. Huge amount of character there.

    I'm going to recomend that you switch to a white primer for light minis... Gets you so much closer to the final color with fewer coats..

    What's that GW? More Dark Angels?... Well if you insist.... (A 2nd battle company started...) What? Chaos resurgent and in the box too? (Long, long delayed 1ksons started)

    Re: the Deathwing

    glad you like him. Dark and sinister seems fairly appropriate for the Dark Angels IMO

    I'm really enjoying the Scout models at the moment. Think I'm going to get a scout biker in order to get the spare parts to spruce up my unit a bit! love the scout head with the osmotic gill. and the one handed shotgun... lovely!
