Halo themed Imp Guard army - manrogue - 28-01-2012 As mentioned i'm gonna do my Imp Guard army around a Halo theme, and i'm after a bit of help. I want a couple of 28 mm pelican to use as a vendettas, as anyone seen anything i could use/convert? Think i'm gonna go with a Elysian themed army, that way can also use Warthog's as Tauros as well..... RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - sprogmcjob - 28-01-2012 http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=5150 gives a 3d model that i had a look on my intial reaction was this cnt be done or it would need heavy costly converting if ur useing 40k models but haveing a quick browse i think im a little closer at finding somthing to work with 1) tau yep with the smooth armour of theirs works with the halo textures whereas the imperial guard have a rough design to them 2) i think its the stike or lighting aircraft has a single glass canopy whereas the vendetta has a double one other than that ull require lots of plasticard and a carzy imanagtion/skills to pull it of the warthogs are easy my friend made one when the frist halo game came out he used a landspeeder wheels and plasticard it look auswome RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - manrogue - 29-01-2012 Gonna do it the opposite way round and convert an actual warthog to look 40k like. Got couple of action clix ones on the way. Trying to find a warthog transport(one without the gun) act as chimeras, no luck so far though..... Good idea on the tau ships, gonna look at that to see if can convert. It will be more of a fun than competative army, so will go with a Halo feel 1000 points backed up with some other bits. RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - sprogmcjob - 29-01-2012 i would let you use space marines/greykinght squard to act as spartans if you convert them lol could make them into the reach squard with sniper combate etc lol house rules or just normal marines grey kinghts since they are better than the normal guys anyway RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - manrogue - 29-01-2012 Lol, exactly what i was thinking, a elite Spartan squad of some kind as an elite slot and Master chief as a special character using the rules of someone......... RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - sprogmcjob - 30-01-2012 one of the assains or a speical chather or a home made cather ie a space marine chapter master with a assult 4 gun at ap4 streagth 4 at bs5 (battle riffle) with a master force weapon shaped like one of the conervent swords lol particularly erternal warrior rule 165pts RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - Dark Wolf - 05-02-2012 (28-01-2012, 07:28 PM)manrogue Wrote: As mentioned i'm gonna do my Imp Guard army around a Halo theme, and i'm after a bit of help. fortress of arogence or big leman russ = scorpion RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - manrogue - 09-02-2012 Possibly just found an easy warthog than converting- http://www.beastsofwar.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/28mm-FPR-Viper-Scout.jpg RE: Halo themed Imp Guard army - Stuart - 09-02-2012 (09-02-2012, 04:46 PM)manrogue Wrote: Possibly just found an easy warthog than converting- As soon as you mentioned that I was wondering whether you'd seen the Antenociti models!
