Legiones Astartes of the IV legion. The Iron Warriors

Hey guys Sam here.
Wanted to showcase my horus heresy army which I have been working on since selling my salamanders last january. 

So to start off here is my preator. I used a non forgeworld model for this and am pleased with the result. I plan on running him in terminator armour with the warsmith rule and a paragon blade.
Next is my tac squad, I do not like painting tac squads, I have two squads of 10 which I will use but due to the onslauht detachment normally use only one. In game I prefer to use veterans and support squads.
Now onto elites, my favourite part of the army really. I like running dreadnoughts. Lots of them. The ams are magnetised to take all options but my favourite load out is both fists with melta guns in drop pods. 

Also i have two contemptor mortis dreadnoughts. I run one with kheres and one with lascannons.
These are also magnetised and can be taken with fists.
Two terminator squads as well. One with lightning claws, one with chainfist and bolter. I have pinned cyclone missile launchers on the chain fist ones to run tyrant seige terminators until forge world release a model.
I also have three rapier laser destroyers

My current single fast attack is a lightning strike fighter. Usually ran with kraken missiles for anti spartan / knight shooting" I do tend to run with one pair of sunfury to kill marines as well.


Heavy support now
First up my most recent unit. Four castellax battle automina with my centurian praevian. Narik
My fire raptor
My predators which have had converted plasma destroyers. (They are one of my next orders)

My spartan assault tank which usually carries terminators and will be perturabos ride until the shadowsword is aquired.
My iron havocs with lascannons.

Lords of war
I have a typhon heavy seige tank, lascannon sponsons are magnetised as not in picture.
My imperial knight. Magnetised at feet, waist, shoulders and end of gun for modifications and mobility.


Thats all for now folks.
Got perturabo in the post. Looking forward to painting him!
Infantry units to get next
Support squad with melta
Missile launcher havocs
Also getting a few more tanks before I call my army complete
Choosing between
Basilisks
Medusas
Whirlwind scorpios
Sicarian

Keep a look out on the page for jamies write up about our istaan style game last wednesday involving 10000 points of heresy and three primarchs!!!

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife Bruce’s obsession with Warhammer was only revealed to me during our second year of dating. We had been together a long time by then – had even lived together for the majority of that time while at University. And still I didn’t know about this one aspect of Bruce’s nerd-dom. When Bruce and I first began dating I was fully aware of – even besotted by - his nerdy credentials. Together we had played hours of Halo 3 and Mario Kart, swapped manga and even visited the cinema for a solo late night screening of Star Trek. Yet this did not prepare me for what would become one of his main loves in life. It all started back in 2012. We had been living separately back at our parents’ homes after University – me in Yorkshire, he in Worcester. I would often travel down to visit him and on one such occasion I was told of a new friend Bruce had made through work. Damien. They had apparently bonded when Bruce had taken on old model – a Tyranid Warrior I beli...

August Apocalypse

Hi All, Its Martin. Our very own Sam, with the help of Matt and Andy from Worcester Wargames put together an Apocalypse game that saw the mighty Imperial armies battling against every Xeno army going (I played my Eldar on the Xeno's team). To allow this to happen, all Xeno's were made allies of convenience to prevent us turning on each other! From Six Up save other than myself, we had Jamie 1 and 2, Bruce, Sam, Dae, and Matt playing in the event. The tournament was a 1 day main event with a sub mission played the night before. Each team had a 'Warlord', Dae for the Xeno's and SUS's newest member Jamie2 for the Imperium. It was their task to coordinate their respective teams towards their targets and agendas. I would say both did an awesome job at keeping their teams in order and directing troops to where they were needed. Each player had 2000 points to spend on their chosen armies but they could only have 1 LOW / Gargantuan per list and within t...

Jamie #1's Imperial knights of Fenris!

Greetings Brothers of War, Jamie here with a little project that i'm working on with Sam's help. I am in the process of constructing 5 Imperial Knights. That's right 5 of the beauts! I plan to have a mix of loadouts to both look great on the shelf and be powerhouses on the tabletop. Fortunatly I had built a Kinght before, so I already had a good idea how to put them together. I have (with assistance from Sam) managed to magnetize the knights in several places allowing for a wide variety of weapons to be used. The megnets are joining the mid section, shoulders, elbows, the thermal and battle cannon turrets for easy swapping, and the carapace weapon on top. The clips that normally hold the shoulders on have been cut away to allow a flat surface for the magnet. On the joint I placed a penny to create that flat surface for the magnet. This was fiddly as we needed to make sure that each shoulder magnet was able to attach to all the shoulders for all models. We had to ens...
