Terror Tuesday! Horus Heresy Night Lords - Terror Squad 1

 Hello Bunnies!

Welcome to the second instalment of Terror Tuesday! This week We are taking a look at the first of my 3 Terror Squads that I have completed. They are kitting out for murder with Volkites and a flamer. The Headsman gets a Chainglaive. I have given each Executioner a single lightning claw claw attached to one fist to represent the Combat blade that they had in Heresy 1.0. Of course this is now a Chainsword in 2.0, which is a little annoying from a modelling perspective but I like the look and won’t be changing it! 

These guys often make up the core of my force, they are really good! The big change for them is that they can no longer score, which does leave me very light on scoring units. I have another 30 legion specific torso ready to make more, most likely with rotor cannons for pinning. I do also fancy a 10 man squad with chainglaives, as I think it will look cool! However adding more is on hold until GW get the MarkIVs back in stock! 

Happy flaying everyone!

Terror Tuesday! Horus Heresy Night Lords - Konrad Curze

 Hello Bunnies! 

Welcome to Terror Tuesday! A new weekly feature dedicated to my Night Lords. I will be showing off the units I have painted, lists, tactics, and progress on new units. I have been working away on these guys for a long time, perhaps a year prior to Forgeworlds Book 9 being released. Sevatar is my favourite character from the fluff and mostly the driving force behind me collecting Night Lords, but I really enjoy how they play on the tabletop and even more so with the release of Heresy 2.0. 

This week we are jumping in with the King of Terrors himself Konrad Curze. 

A great model to paint, I had a lot of fun doing so, I didn’t add any lightning to him as it didn’t feel quite right for him to have it, he is already scary enough! His trim is painted in a brass rather than the silver I used on everyone else to give him that extra special look. 

When I complete a new model from scratch I will add a painting guide, incase you’re wondering though the blue is achieved with Greenstuff Worlds Colourshift Colbolt Blue. 

Oddly I find him hard to get in my lists. I haven’t fully decided what unit he wants to be his bodyguard, I will explore this further in a future post, after I’ve been able to field him in a few more games!

Happy flaying everyone!
