Post subject:  Tale of Epic Gamers Llamahead's Word Bearers
I started this army last year after winning a bunch of spare chaos figures on Ebay while picking up Orks. It's a force for Net Epic mainly to get more of the gribbly toys available. I chose Word Bearers as I like dark red and I already had loads of Beast Riders, Disc Riders and Juggernaughts At the moment I have this done;
A Renegade Warband
Image
Chaos Squats
Image
Juggernaughts
Image
Beast Riders
Image
Disc Riders
Image

Modelled up I have these chappies
Chaos Terminators
Image
Chaos Raptors
Image
Lord of Battles (Bodged from an Ork Warbike)
Image
A pair of Deathwheels
Image

The centrepiece however is this guy a converted Banelord Titan based upon a wrecked plastic Warlord

I've got plenty of Chaos Space Marines and old IG to use as cultists, I'm hoping to add some of the boxes of new infantry and Warmaster Daemons at some point soon but the next purchase is going to be some N gauge fening to add spiky bits to my tanks.

Man, that Banelord is wicked!!!
Just not sure if the rockets are needed though ;)


Edit: Fixed that freudian slip ::)

Cheers Gonzo and they are needed to represent the Havoc missile rack the Banelord comes with in the Net Epic rules.

Ah, I see!
Little shame imho as they might take away from that awesome head and banner.

Also like the low-tech look of the Deathwheels and would be interested to see a side on shot of the LoB!

Some nice stuff there Dave. Look forward to some games against them in the future.

Mr Gonzo-Yep hopefully I'll be able to mitigate that with painting but I'll have to bear it in mind.

Quick confession most of what I put up was finished in December last year this bunch of lads is my first true formation of this year.

However the Rhinos look rather plain I'd like to get ome Dark Eldar spikes to help this. I did find another answer as well. OO gauge Model railway spear link fence I got enough for about forty tanks for £4.25.

Sorry for the blurry shot.

I also did something totally daft

Yes that is an Epic scale Heldrake bodge. It's a Pterosaur (from the cheapo dinosaur set I got for Squiggoths) which donated it's wings and head to a weird robot dohickey. In all likelihood I won't get a Firelord and it'll be awhile before finances permit buying the Dystopian War models for counts as so I bodged this together it might look a lot better painted who knows!

That's actually not a bad looking Heldrake :)

Spear fence use is brilliant :)

Post subject:  Re: Tale of Epic Gamers Llamahead's Word Bearers
Very clever use of railway spear fence, looks much better than the original spiky Chaos vehicles. The Heldrake is very clever, too. Before you paint it, I would just tighten some of the gaps with some sort of putty (green stuff) and/or plasticard plating, but as you say, it could easily be used as a Firelord, too. Good work!

Wow, that's a lot of Orks there Dave! Didn't realise you had so many.
Maybe we should up the points for our next games and get more of them on the battlefield?

Post subject:  Re: Tale of Epic Gamers Llamahead's Word Bearers
Yep sure any idea when that'll be? I'm not fussed about size of game much but I definitely want to get more in. 6K seems to be a nice round amount but any more than about 10k might be a struggle to get finished. I know Rykk's Nid's are just about done and hopefully we'll get a bit more variety. I'm wondering about suggesting a proper Epic event day like the big campaign day's in the near future.
