misc: update: state of the warband address

After I finished the bases for the Iron Warriors, I moved the completed models over as time permitted. While I was taking pics of the Slaughterers this morning, I thought it would be a good time to take quick snaps of everybody and take stock of where the list is at the present time. First, a refresher on the list, as tooled for the first part of the Hobby Progress Challenge and Zone Mortalis...

Iron Warband of Warsmith Thokcha

SIEGE ASSAULT

HQ: Iron Palatine Gibeon - 115 pts
. . . Chaos Lord: Burning Brand of Skalathrax
. . . Veteran of the Long War, Mark of Nurgle

. . . Plague Marines: +1 dude, flamer, plasma gun
. . . Veterans of the Long War

Troop 2: Iron Aspirant Sikhote and Breaching Squad Ferrugo - 220 pts
. . . Plague Marines: +2 dudes, flamer, plasma gun

. . . Veterans of the Long War

Elite 1: Iron Ascendant Scoriæ and his "Slaughterers" - 264 pts
. . . Chosen: +2 dudes, paired lightning claws x2, melt gun x2
. . . . . . Champion: paired lightning claws

Troop 4: Polybolos Beta - 188 pts

AUXILLIARY

Elite 2: Sturm - 130 pts
. . . Helbrute: add CCW, heavy flamer, power scourge

Elite 3: Drang - 130 pts
. . . Helbrute: add CCW, heavy flamer, power scourge

As one can see, the list didn't change significantly from last edition. I'll grant that much of that was because I'd already assembled everything but the Helbrutes, however, I do have enough spare parts that I could easily add figures or re-tool the existing one's weapons for the new edition if I wanted. I do not. I created the list to be thematic, and I'm sticking to it.

Which brings us to the the pictographic record of the based army as of this morning, in list order:


SIEGE ASSAULT


Iron Palatine Gibeon w/ Breaching Squad Aerugo


Iron Aspirant Sikhote w/ Breaching Squad Ferrugo


Iron Ascendant Scoriæ and his "Slaughterers"


TRENCH DEFENSE


Captain Ahnighito's Zigouilleurs


Polybolos Alpha


Polybolos Beta


AUXILLIARY


Sturm and Drang

Holy cow! When you look at it like that, it's only 9 models to go before I'm finished with the list! This thing just might be achievable after all...
