I love to build!

Was a little bored last night and I scrapped this fellow from my "choice" bitz. Not sure what chapter he belongs to or who he is supposed to represent. I've temporarily dubbed him Brother Sergeant Sercuious. Right now I think I want to paint him either as a Lamenters veteran of some sort of just make him part of a new chapter. A bunch of knights, questing. Kind of like a chapter of grail knights but I'm unsure what their unifying symbol would be or if they'd be like a weird deathwatch thing where they all come from different chapters but join to complete quests? Actually that sounds pretty cool...

Re-Open For Business: Themed List- Maxed Out Scout List

I'm goin to try posting again after the temporary hiatus (Who knew having a kid was so time consuming!). So I shot a tweet over to Bryce at our Sister Blog Descenting Dice about trying our "Themed Lists." I demanded Grots! Grots! Grots! And he returned with Scouts! Scouts! Scouts! Here's my list:

HQ: Pedro Cantor 175pts
Master of The Forge w/Conversion Beamer 120pts

Elites: Dreadnought w/Multimelta & Heavy Flamer w/Drop Pod 150pts
Dreadnought w/Multimelta + Drop Pod w/Beacon 150pts

Troops: 5 scouts, shotguns, cloaks, PF, Teleport Homer 130pts
5 scouts, shotguns, cloaks, PF, Teleport Homer 130pts

10 scouts, shotguns, cloaks, PF, Teleport Homer 210_pts
10 scouts, Snipers, cloaks, heavy bolter 180pts
10 scouts, Snipers, cloaks, heavy bolter 180pts

Fast Attack: Land Speeder Storm, Multi-Melta 65pts
Land Speeder Storm, Multi-Melta 65pts
Land Speeder Storm, Multi-Melta 65pts

Heavy Support: Dreadnought w/2x Twin Linked Autocannons 125pts
Dreadnought w/2x Twin Linked Autocannons 125pts

2000pts

The idea is to have an in your face almost "Veteran Guard" feel to it. Pedro gives the army Stubborn so they don't run when assaulted. The MM on the speeders and the podding dreads help you pop the heavy armor. Riflemans for anti-light transport/monstrous creature. The Master of the Forge to supe up the cover to 2+ for one of the support scout squads an throw the conversion beam around. Thoughts?
