I'm currently still waiting for some bitz and pieces for both Thousand Sons and Squats, so I decided to paint one of my Assassins this week. I painted him within the last 4 days and I'm really happy with my little death monkey - enjoy!
"Krieg"
Nihilator of Clade Eversor, Agent of the Officio Assassinorum
"Fear me, for I am your apocalypse."
— Dictatus Eversor
In many ways an Eversor Assassin has more in common with a living bomb than with a human operative. Rather than taking out a single target like the other Officio Assassins, an Eversor Assassin is usually employed to clear a large number of targets in a short amount of time. In essence, Eversor Assassins are one-person special forces units. In fact, because of the amount of ability-enhancing drugs running through his or her body, when an Eversor Assassin is brought down and killed in combat, the drugs will react violently to the metabolic onset of death and cause the Eversor's corpse to explode, providing a final opportunity for the Assassin to kill the enemies of the Emperor. In order to act so efficiently, an Eversor Assassin is fielded with a wide variety of weapons and combat tools, including a weapon known as an Executioner Pistol that can fire neuro-toxin-coated needles as well as explosive bolts like a Bolt Pistol, powerful Melta-bombs for destroying tanks and heavy doors, and a potent chemical cocktail of drugs that gives the Assassin incredible reflexes, enhanced durability and survivability and a single-minded rage to kill his targets.
The brown part of the base still needs some love (I literally just put in onto the base), but besides that he's done :)
That's all from me for now - c&c is welcome - and always beware the Death Monkeys!

Lady Atia
Looking really awesome?
ReplyDeleteHow do you field them in HH games? Single assassine as an Elite choice? Based on the 40k rules or any rule changes?
That was supposed to be a ! and not a ? ;-)
DeleteThanks buddy :)
DeleteI would just use them with the 40k rules to be honest. I will also play "Assassinorum Execution Force" set in the Horus Heresy (using my Word Bearers as "chaos space marines"). Oh, and I will add them to Shadow War: Heresy.
Always wanted to do that too but never done it. I have all the old metal assassins.
DeleteWhat have you used to base this fella with?
ReplyDeleteHey :)
DeleteI used GW Agrellan Earth mixed with sand!
I've always thought the Evasor would look awesome alongside the bloody VIIIth
