Imperial Fists

[Solarian]

Thought I would add to the content of this site by posting about my Imperial Fists.

This army was created in 2007 from my flatshare in clapham common . It attended two clubs (http://www.crossgamingclub.com/, http://www.claphamwargamers.org.uk/) and one tournament (http://www.bristolvanguard.co.uk/BV/The_Great_Devourer.html).

I posted on its progress some time back but that was so long ago that the post has been archived/deleted and a new edition of the rules have come into play.

I'll post some of the pictures from the past and the army list itself. Then add the new pictures and the revised list for 5th edition.

Hopefully, I will actually get the time to have a couple games and attend another tournament before the rules change again, lol

This entire floor is just for 40k, is a really cool tourney, I vowed to go back to try win it but sadly have never returned.

Did yov complete it in the end?

Hey Lezle, never completed it, haha, but got 3 colours and base done Trying to bring it inline with new codex and new edition. No doubt my first attempt at this will need some work once I actually game test it.

I'm currently in milton keynes and the only place to play is at GW. I just finished getting the army ready to play as they need it to be like 70% painted and at least undercoated.

This list has not been tested, its just the adaptation of my old list to the new edition. I dont think on paper this list will look effective as the previous list didn't look that fearsome either but in practice it is quite a tough list. Would need to test the librarian and his powers to get the right combination.
