Post subject:  For Sale: EPIC Iron Warriors army

Hello, I plan to put this army on eBay on Sunday 5th June, but I thought I would offer it on here first to see if anyone here wanted it.

Basically, I am selling my EPIC Iron Warriors army:

It consists of the following:
- Terminator Formation with warlord (Warsmith) and 3 Obliterators
- Chaos Marine Formation with Havocs, Rhinos and Vindicators
- Chaos Marine Formation with Havocs and 3 Obliterators
- Chaos Armoured Company (6xLand Raiders)
- Chaos Armoured Company (6xPredators)
- Decimator Company (3 Decimators – I actually made these to represent Super-heavy Artillery, using my own rules, but for standard games I count them as Decimators)
- Basilisk Company (the normal Black Legion EPIC Chaos List does not allow the use of these, but there are fan-made Iron Warriors lists which do)
- 3 Objectives
- And a Scratch-built, painstakingly converted Bane Lord Titan ‘Ferrus Eternum’, which won First Prize in a painting competition: http://www.tacticalwargames.net/archive ... tan04.html

That’s 34 units of infantry, 21 Tanks, 3 Super-heavy Tanks, and a Titan!

This is part of a larger army which was featured in a Battle Report in Issue 5 of the 40k On-line Fanzine ‘Firebase’, which was part of the ‘WarSeer’ Forums.

As I said, this is a painstakingly converted and painted army – here are some pictures which I hope show the level of detail on them:

As I said, I won First Prize in the single Titan Category in EpiComp 2006 for the Bane Lord Titan – I spent 3 months constructing and painting it, here are some detail pictures:

This army totals at least 3,000 points, depending upon which army list you use – enough for a standard game of EPIC.

For this army I am looking at offers in the region of £150; I feel this is a reasonable price because
a) There are many rare and out of production EPIC miniatures in the army, such as some of the Chaos Marines, the Basilisks, and the Vindicators;
b) To buy the equivalent metal miniatures of these from Games Workshop now would cost well over £100;
c) Because of the level of detail that has gone in to the converting and painting of this army.

It really is a unique army, and really in keeping with the feel of the Iron Warriors.

If you are seriously interested, please contact me via e-mail or PM.

If there are no takers by Sunday evening, I will put the army on eBay.

Thanks for looking! 8)

Nice looking army. It is always a shame to sell off something this nice.

Why the sale?

Thanks frogbear :)

Yeah, part of me feels it is a shame, but a) I have 3 or 4 armies worth of EPIC Chaos miniatures (!) I need to paint, and when they're done this army will be pretty redundant to me, b) I don't have the space at the moment to keep armies I'm not using (I keep trying to plug EPIC at my local gaming group, but the cost of starting up keeps putting a lot of people off) :( and b) our car needs some work doing this month, so the money will go to that, ha! ;D

IT looks like it might be going to someone on these forums, so I'm happy they will most likely still be in our community - I hope they get a lot of use from them - more than I've been able to lately.

Thanks lylekelm & roomandu! :)

Well the army is gone, rather appropriately to Steve54, the Iron Warriors' very own EPIC Champion!

Thanks all for looking.

Thanks, here are some pictures from my other armies…

Slaaneshi Lost & the Damned (which I recently sold):

Iron Hands Space Marine army (which I sold about 3 years ago to help pay for my wedding):

Some Chaos stuff, which will end up in my combined Chaos Space Marine/World Eater/Death Guard/Lost & the Damned army, which I will eventually get round to painting…
Image
Image (wip Plague Marines)

I also have my Imperial Guard army, which I don’t seem to have any decent pics of, but as it was painted about 6 years ago it’s looking worse for wear, so I intend to repaint them anyway.

Hopefully this autumn I will be able to start work on my EPIC Chaos stuff – as I said, I’ve got a ton of EPIC Chaos miniatures, enough to make at least 4 armies out of…

It only went for £37, which I was a bit disappointed by to be honest; I put it down to it not really being a full army - it was only about 1,200 points worth. I'd only ever intended it to be an allied force for another of my Chaos armies.
