The Loyalist Host, finally completed with all at 2k points

Forgot to put this on my Tumblr, a repaint of one of my oldest miniatures from when I got in the hobby around lockdown.

Even at the time I felt I had painted it terribly compared to some of my other ‘bashes, she’s for a Palanite Gang run by an old Imperial officer and had Guard kitbashes—thought it’d be a great idea to give them a commissar, she uses her robo dog to both boost morale and to keep her subordinates from running.

These models might drive me insane with how long they take to paint. But man the details on them are sublime. Look at his emotianoal support corpse tied to his belly.

Or this guy, his “flags” are skinned hands. Little flappy gloves.

These new Wizards for the Empire Of Man in Warhammer The Old World are just amazing!

Definitely keen to get one of each for my Talabheim army.

I’m really looking forward to the Empire faction release, there are so many miniatures returning that I wanted to collect back when I started the hobby around the end of WFB 5th Edition but never got round to buying.

The War Wagon is top of that pile!

Servitors! I love these little guys

It’s a shame they’re legends for 40k proper, but at least they’ll find use as a staple in my black crusade games.

I’m painting them up as stygies anyways and saying it’s a coincidence that all of my forge worlds look like that

Da boyz ar' back in town!

Conveniently, hereteks differentiate themselves from faithful mechanicum by wearing black robes for ease of recognition.

You'd think that it would be something overt like the extra guy grafted to his back or the lingering stench of contraseptic and rotting meat but, no. Those are normal techpriest things.

hmm

new

old

so similar and yet so different

HERRIKAN FORGEWORLD

Many artifacts from the Dark Age of Technology lie in the golden sands of Herrika. Across the unending deserts of this planet are scattered multiple husks of a bygone era, sprawling networks of corridors and pipes, rotting from the inside, as they are infested by creatures discovered to be descendents of a preexisting human civilisation, now turned cannibalistic abominations, adapted to live in the long forgotten bunkers. The greatest gifts may lie in the steel veins of the planet, but mere inches beneath the scorching sand, buried there by the winds, unending deposits of archeotech just wait to be dug up by the followers of the Omnissiah. Many expeditions attempted to cleanse and reclaim the network beneath the surface, but none were successful so far. As such the main task of the Herrican techpriests is currently sifting through the sand, using fleets of tracked machines equipped with nets burying themselves in the sand, in search of forgotten technology. 

Herrikan history is one of adaptation and survival. The forgeworld started as a simple expedition by a group of 17 radical techpriests from a range of different forge worlds. Everything seemed fine, until they lost contact with the rest of expedition fleet in orbit, as they have been ordered by the administratum to leave everything in order to serve as a force multiplier in a nearby rebellion over the tithe of a hive city. The 17 founders, now left stranded on this desert wasteland decided that the only way they can survive is to prove their worth to the Omnissiah by venturing into the depths of the planet, reclaiming what has been lost over the ages. They found more than they could ever hope for, machines of war and peace, technology of the Dark Age, and an artifact that became the reason for a schism within the 17. 6 of them wanted to use their discovery to establish their own empire, create the new civilisation of the Followers of machine, while the rest came to a conclusion that such a drastic action would just mark the end of their stories, dooming them to be executed as hereteks. Tensions were high but with not enough people or resources for a civil war the thirst of blood eventually ended with the official declaration of creation of the Herrikan forgeworld, led by 17 arch-scavengers, each carrying their vows of steel wrapped on their right hands.

Now, 4 thousand years after the first artifact has been discovered on Herrika, it has grown to be a small, but influential forge world, trading in unique archeotech, establishing multiple client forgeworlds like the radicals of Titanis Arx or the voidfaring Nefirran Fleet and solidifying itself as one of the biggest sources of archeotech in segmentum tempestus.

If anyone has any more questions about the lore and stuff feel free to ask, also if anyone wants to use this forgeworld in any art, story, minis or anything feel free, just tag me.
