Primaris marines for the win!
There are 40 different shades of black, so many fortresses and ways to attack.

So why you complaining!

You've chosen the Guard, which immediately lands you bonus points! I'd go for the Death Korps of Krieg, Tallarn Desert Raiders or the Steel Legion. They're really flavorful and climactic.

I'm going with my own creation based off the English Troops in Africa WWII or WWI whatever. SO, I'm using the Candian bodies with a swapped desert wrapped heads from another company.

I just want you to know Zak, every time I check your thread here I start humming Frozen music to myself.

"Do you want to start an army?
Do you want to play outside?"

and etc.

Hmmm ... they don't look like the 8th Army in Africa.  More like the Arab revolt of 1916.

I’ve always enjoyed playing fantasy over 40k but the lore and background of 40k to me is far more facinating and compelling.

I choose too keep "Old Warhammer" alive with my blood sweat and tears.

It's bad that warhammer might die but it would be a tragedy if it stays dead!

SteveB 40k! Sounds awesome. Next you'll be finding a quality recreation of the Silmarillions that actually glows with the light of the Trees.
