Deathwing Project Update - My Second "Finished" Army

Yep, its done. 1500pts of pure Deathwing, 19 models total, fits in a briefcase, every ranged weapon is 24"

Dark Angels and Deathwing were my very first army choice, and I am happy to finally have a finished 1500pt army.

After seeing FTW Ron's tiny army in a box at Games Day this year, I decided to get to work.

The Idea is that they are on a very harsh planet with heavy acid rain, so they show a bit more weathering than I would normally use.

All bases are resin with troops all on bargain priced "Highland Crag" bases by Forgecraft Games, while HQ have more substantial "Shale" bases by Micro Arts Studios.

HQ= Master Belial with claws.

2nd HQ= Term. Chaplain

Troops= 5 man Term. Assault Squad

4x twin lightning claws,

1x heavy flamer+ chain fist

These guys roll in a Land Raider Crusader with both HQs. If these guys get the assault on you, its going to be rough.

That's 25 power weapon attacks that re roll to hit, 21 of which also re roll wounds and 3 strength 8 chainfist attacks for 2D6 armor penetration which re roll to hit. That's up to 28 attacks that ignore armor saves from 7 models with 11 wounds, that all have 2+ armor and invulnerable saves.

Troops= 2x 5 man Term. squad

+assault cannon

+ chainfist.

Heavy= 2x Land Raider Crusader

The first is in weathered Deathwing colors and is the Terminator assault squad and HQ's whip.

The second is in reversed colors of Dark Angels green, on loan from the chapter armory.

I took an old hard plastic 19"x14"case and a pluck foam tray, and ended up with just enough room for all the models, plus one extra (Term. Librarian), mini rules book and codex, custom Deathwing dice and measuring tape.

The foam is glued in and everything is very cozy and safe.

Sorry that the pics are not that great, its been raining nonstop and I have to shoot inside with poor light.
