Imperial Renegades [WIP] PIC HEAVY!!!!

I have made the decision to make an Imperial Renegade squad. I wanted a full 15 man squad for starters so i didn't need to add anything later.

So here is the work done so far. please forgive the conversions, and general appearance. This inspiration was spurred on by mother energy drinks, no sleep and night shift.

Commander [power sword, Lil Burner] will add a 2nd ranged weapon on to this fig so he can still shoot after he's used the lil burner.


Enforcer [axe, and either a bolter or autogun]


Apostate Preacher [powerfist/claw, Lil Burner]


Sergeant #1 [powerfist/claw, lil burner] sorry about that pic.....


Sergeant #2 [Chainsword and bolt pistol ]


Militiamen [bolt pistol and sword]



Workers [Auto-pistol/stubber/ sword]


I think I'll be painting them with a Slaanesh theme will post pics as they get painted up..... working on an Imperial squad as well will get pics done as the bitz arrive and get fashioned into something that resembles a squad.

Cheers
LGW

Nice work!

Nice use of a real mix of bits - where did the heads for the militiamen come from (I don't know too much about chaos)?

The middle worker looks rock hard, as does the apostate preacher (certainly harder than the pansy I've modelled!) - I wouldn't like ot meet these guys on a dark night (or any other kind - particularly if their slaanesh!).

One question - How did you make the Lil' burner? I need to make one for my IG squad.

Thx,

I have changed the male workers to shot guns. ripped the guns off the imperial minis that I am working on [score another 8 shot guns off ebay so will replace them with those]

Also gave a shotgun to the sergeant with the lil burner and powerfist. didn'trelize the lil burner was a once per game use....

as for the lil burner it was an orc arm with auto-pistol the front part cut off. and then used the chaos rhino flamer onto the end of it. you could use any space marine or chaos marine flamer to do the trick.

As for the militamen the heads are space marine and chaos marine sergeant heads.

will post some pics of the re-worked workers/sergeant before I start undercoating them....

just got to work out the colour scheme for the unit now. most likely end up being blue and pink...


Cheers

NB: have I stuffed up the Militiamen by giving them bolt pistols? seems they can only get recruit weapons and the bolt pistol is not an option...... any one read the list differently from me????

WOW! This is the things nightmares are made of! Wicked... COOL!

Does your Commander has a fanged mouth on his chest?!?! You Chaos people... what else are you coming up next? The preacher is cool looking, but remember that the IR do not have access to Power Fists. They lack resources. The rest of the 'gang' is scary as sh!#!!! Ha! Love to see them!

CRAP... I'm sorry Mr. Inquisitor... I was swallowing! I swear! I was trying to say Love to see them DEAD! Yeah... that's what it was.

PS: Bolt Pistols are Officer Only gear. You will discover that this Squad has cheap gear... not powerful, but low cost. Then you do get lots of cash quickly... because you can get a Mortar!!!

WHAT NO POWERFIST!!!!!! OMG!!! oh well back to the drawing board might have to replace them with some thing else then..... as for the bolt pistols I'll convert them in to stubbers or what ever pistol they are allowed[just cut down the nozzle of the gun and it should look more like the other type of pistols available] . going to buy a mortar soon and convert it up ready to go once I get enough credits to buy it for my squad.

Wow... you are serious about your WYSIWYG models! Scary AND Cool !

just a tad....

NB: is a power sword+chain sword combo to much? as I have a chain fist Icould add to the leader and count it as a chain sword....

Huh. I'm more curious where you got the female model... they're so frickin' rare in GW, let alone in plastic. I spot a few Daemonette parts, but some of them look different. Please 'splain!

The female workers are as follows:

deamonette head
deamonette claws
female Eldar guardian body

then add what ever extra detals you want.

hope that helps.pretty simple conversion.

I don't know. The people I know would [/b]FREAK If they saw all that on a starter list. The guys I know are VERY fluff over evreything guys so whatever. If your buddys are cool with it great, oh and the commanders sword and bolt pistol are free just so you know

not sure I understand your comments. is the list "over the top" or "power playing" etc???

just went with weapons I had in my bitz box. I'll change the commanders web pistol to a lil burner...but the preacher is going to keep his webpistol.

Cheers
LGW

The Web Pistol is a little crazy... but it will work. Remember that they have a Rare 7 value, so you can't get them on initial recruitment of the Squad... same goes for the bolters, chainsword and shotguns. You could buy Mesh armor for your Officers.

I do not think you are 'power-playing'... this is part of the Ninja Design of no rares on staring Squads. Limiting the rares on stating Squads allows everyone to start n the same balanced footing... and as the campaign progresses, you get better gear, which feels like an advancement (because the fighter is more efficient). dwi HATES not being able to buy Rares on recruitment, it has proven over and over again that it makes for a more balanced campaign. You could save the cash, and hunt the weapons so you get them by game two... or get you an Ogryn!

If you and your buddies want to play a bloodier (and shorter) campaign, you guys can house-rule to start with rares. This would take the IG Captain advantage, thou. I would say, don't worry that the initial models are not WYSIWYG... Death Squads has been designed so a normal Campaign is 15 games, and a long one over 25. Mordheim campaigns start breaking up after 10 games. Death Squads is for the long run. Hmmm... I believe I mentioned somewhere that I would guarantee that no matter what you did, your starting Squad would feel under-powered and this was designed on purpose so players would see quick improvements?

But, if it is any consolations... your models are AWESOME!!! Second best to 02laney's Grots in Powa Suts!

Ya it's a little on the INSANE WARBAND FROM HELL! side. At least for a starting warband. Game wise: I think you will find it more fun if you just went with a smiple band with 1 or 3 rare things if you want them. Then finding more and... well you get the idea. Fluff wise a webpistol is *looks in TLRB* rare 8, now that may not seem like much, however my ONE shotgun on my ImpRens is pushing it fluff wise. An renagade warband is only likely to have smiple stuff like autoguns, las guns, a flamer here and there etc, haveing more than one thing like a webpistol in the warband at the start would be if the band was realy rich.

when do I sort out the mutatiions now of when I start the campaign?

Cheers

You can do them now... you get to CHOOSE the mutations. Dozer explained this to me as...

Mutant #1 goes to the front desk.
"Errr... is this where I can sign up? I hear you guys are looking for... errrr... special people?"
"Sure. What you got kid?"
"My eyes... they are kindda bulgie. I can see very well for afar and...."
"Shut up freak! We don't like your bulging eyes kind. NEXT!"
Mutant #2 walks in and punds his three fists on the table.
"You bitches better not mess with me... I had not had my coffee yet!!"
"Sir, we have rules over the hiring process..."
Mutant #2 spits acid at the man from one of his two heads, while the other rolls his eyes in disgust.
"AGGGHHHH!!! My face is melting!!!"
The Commander pokes his head from his office and moves his tiny reading glasses down his nose.
"You are hired kid. Go, get rid of Bulgy Eyes boy... he is trying to give me the evil eye."

Hhehehe... basically you get to choose which mutants you want on your Squad. After that, you are at the mercy of the Dark Gods.

ok did the rolls

here are the results:

Renegade close combat/tactical [eg bolter/chainsword build]

Scorpion tail [35pts]
Demonic Spirit [50pts]

Renegade master-blaster [eg shotgun build]

extra arm [35pts]
mutated hide [30pts]

and I now have 17pts left and the squad is ready to go.

was amazed how many times I rolled up #7 on the first one before I rolled 8. [4 times in a row ]

cheers
