"White Scars" Recon Marines

 
Here we have some Recon marines for my "White Scars" Alpha Legioneers conduction operations far behind enemy lines.

My 1.0 edition army list of "White Scars" are not legal anymore so I will have to redo my list. The main theme were mechanised veteran infantry supported by Landspeeders and Sicaran tanks but I cant play that legally anymore. Im not sure anymore where I want them to be but adding some recon marines for extra troop choices with the Line rule to capture objectives seems like a good idea atleast.

The Recon marines can be equipped with a mixtures of small arms weaponry and by having a mixed squad you get a more of a special forces feel to them. I think that given all of the miniatures the same weapons to be better at a specific task is probably better game mechanic wise but this looks better.

I rearranged the legs of some of them to give those more movement. All of the miniatures have been given lots of bags, grenades or other equipment as I just love the miniatures to look as if they are in a warzone. I added skins or pelts out of greenstuff to show the more savage style of the barbarian White Scars.

I first painted the miniatures are regular Alpha Legions and then gave them a layer of chipping medium before repainted them as White Scars. Before I uses washes and shades I added lots of water to the surface on the miniatures and gently scrapped some chipping on them to reveal their true colours beneath...

Sertoria Comitus, Chapter 3 Game 3, The lost records from the city of Flavius Cassius

 

 

 

These are the lost records from the Reconquest campaign of Sertoria Comitus.
Imperial Astopaths and Imperial Scribes are trying to combine and compile the lose information they have managed to snap up in to a coherent picture of the event that took place.

The information are old and scrambled, the Imperial bureaucracy are having trouble to get a correct picture. What is known is that all is not well with the Reconquest effort of the planet of Sertoria Comitus.

The Imperial scribes have tried to put together a pictures of the happening of the conflict inside the city of Flavius Cassius on the planet of Sertoria Comitus.
Here are what is known.


Commanders arrange the troops in the city...

An Storm chimera gives a Taurox added cover...

Specially modified Hellhound is seen in the city.

Grenadiers in an Centaur patrols the streets.

Aeldari wraith constructs are met with the firepower of the mighty Heavy bolter...


The Storm chimera advances with its firepower in full...

But the xenos are not deterrent by this...

Xenos light skimmer transports zooms in...




Aeldari clears the building as they advances.
A foul xenos beast are skulking towards the imperial position...

The defenders starts to sweat...

The great axes cuts a path through the imperial infantry.



Imperial light armour is seen using the road network.



The Centaur is set ablaze.

The Death Korps High Marshal is dragged down by the foul skulking xenos creature as the defenders are totally overwhelmed...

Here stops the surveillance pictfeed and the telepathic communications from the area. It is not known what happened to the imperial forces still in the area, hopefully some managed to drag them self away from the slaughter that ensued.
