I am on record as saying that I'd have preferred Minka Lesk over nepo baby Ursula Creed, and I stand by it.

Minka Lesk of the Imperial Guard.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I have the new Cadians, but obviously I don't intend them to be Cadians as I still use the originals. I've been wondering how to convert them. As soon as I got this new figure I knew. Romans here we go 🦅

The results of what I would like to call Guard January, it just so happens this month I ended up painting a bunch of random Guard models, both old and new.
In order of appearance: -Kalitiya Al Makouma, Military Police Investigator turned Inquisitorial Retinue member after discovering a Genestealer cult in her regiment. She's part of the same Ordo Xenos team as Mord and Zex Al'Dakiz and Raphael Qvele.
-Severine Roodeker, lord militant to Rogue Trader Captain Tarriel Eleonora Corvinius. My character from the Wrath & Glory campaign featuring Alena. Her only real achievement, beyond nearly dying multiple times due to stupid crits, was killing the final boss with two lucky shots with a bolt pistol. Two of those crits led to her losing an arm and a leg, during separate incidents (the leg was ripped off by Khrave clone). The arm is a Wraithbone prosthesis, a gift from an Eldar Corsair for saving his skin and the leg was replaced by an AdMech prosthesis. The latter I didn't model because it'd require a lot of cutting, and Skitarii legs look too thin.
-Lieutenants Sasha Mearghuv, from a so far unnamed regiment. The base model is the Minka Lesk one, with a Wargames Atlantic Cannon Fodder 2 head instead of the regular one. (Same with both Kali and Sev.) First time I had the chance to paint one of the new Cadians, instead of just old ones. The colour scheme is WW2 GI, even if realised that's really similar to the Cadian 8th one, even if painting the pants a different colour does wonders I feel. Really hate how tied up she is to the overly big hero rock. But otherwise I do enjoy the new Cadian aesthetic when they don't have their odd helmets and non M36 rifles.
-Trooper Totterpole, from another unnamed regiment. This one is a straight up unmodified old Cadian Shock Trooper, using one of the few upgrade sprue heads I managed to get ahold off. He was meant to be painted up as a Vietnam Marine, but I quickly discovered that the old Cadians have too much armor to make that work, so on my third attempt I improvised with the armor colours. Which ended up pretty decent. The base is 'jungle', probably need to get some better materials for that in the future.

Minka Lesk model, painted in my army’s colours. I use her in game as a Sly Marbo proxy. Can’t paint tattoos for shit so tried to convey the idea of a shape wrapping round her arm

Cadia Stands and Cadian Honor. A double feature! Mainly because I really didn't like the first one and I don't like to rag on authors, so thankfully the second was infinity better.
My thoughts, beware spoilers: Usual Caveat: These “reviews” are just a collection of my thoughts as a fan of the game and setting. They are in no way an analysis of the literary merits of the author or the quality of the writing. Both of which I do not have the knowledge or skill to judge.
Cadia Stands
I'll be brief. I'm sure there is an audience for this book, just as I am sure I am not it.
A dry rendition of the overall fall of Cadia. A few characters are introduced who will end up being fleshed out more in later books, but who get limited screen time and little development here. For the most part the story is told as a loose collection of action vignettes.Kind of like when I was a kid and I use to edit the combat scenes from Bab 5 into a single long combat video that I thought was the best thing ever! Just not my thing now. I found it a bit of a slog.
Still there were some moments of reflective commentary that worked for me.
'“They're just dreams” Rath says again. He does not sound like he belives it himself. She looks away, and her eyes fall on the misshapen form of Hallr. She looks away again and thinks, Look what the Imperium has done to all of us'
I wondered if this was what the writer was asked to deliver, and not necessarily indicative of their usual style, so I read the 2 short stories in the Minka Lesk Omnibus, the first of which had hints of a similar style as Cadia Stands, but started to lean out of it. The second become more my speed with it being focused on individuals, their development and emotions and not jumping around so much.
Cadian Honour
I enjoyed this book a good deal more. At its heart is the story of an imperial planet, an uprising in the name of the emperor to overthrow the corrupt leadership of the imperium, and the Cadians stationed there as the shit hits the fan.
It grants an interesting look at the weird religious variants that shelter under the belief in the Emperor as a god. How every historical local genocidal zealot, is viewed as a saint, and worship of them as valid as worshipping the Emp.
How the loose form of this faith, shaped by local preachers and planetary customs makes people gullible and capable of horrific crimes (as long as doing so can be ideologically beaten into being in His name... there's that satirical commentary)
Once again this is a story of the imperium creating its own problems, being so fundamentally broken in its religious fanaticism that a confessor who has *stitched his eyes open* and is killing folks at random because he can *tell* they are heretics, , is not seen as a bloodshot red flag, but a sign of true faith in the Emperor. (You will never guess who he's been duped into actually working for :P)
This sets the stage for Sargent Lesk and a couple of other recurring characters to get the bulk of the screen time, and give me that drama and character development I so crave with my dystopian war stories. Though a weird stand out for me is just how much the Cadians are filled with no true ScotsCadien rhetoric. Cadia stands, but was an epic failure resulting in the loss of the world Cadia. Cadians are amazing soldiers, you know except for the ones being skeevy at their fem comrades, who don't want to take orders from women, are dealing drugs, deliberately disobeying simple orders to show up to parades and drills. Cept for them... Cadians the pride of the astra militarum :P As usual I'll conclude with the Imperium being aware that its broken, with some thoughts from a Cadian General. 'Bendikt cursed to himself. He had seen enough of the galaxy to know that it was the ponderous weight of the Administratum that held the imperium back, not its soldiers. But worse then that it was the corrupt aristocracy like the Richstars that fermented unrest and heresy'

I'm pretty sure everyone knows Games workshop publishes Omnibus editions that are collages of multiple books (three in total I believe) and a short story or two as a treat—all in one fat book
I have the Minka Lesk: The last whiteshield that's an omnibus of two short stories and three books of the Canadian series by Justin D Hill.
I have almost all the books in the Canadian series except for shadow of the eighth. And the nearest Warhammer world it's on the other side of the state I'm in that I will practically never see. Barnes and nobles makes it a labyrinth to find any Black Library content so I'm eternally unsatisfied about never finishing the series.
Can't really find an online PDF, they all seem to be taken down because Avenging Son isn't available in PDF form anymore as well as other BL books.
So yeah, I'm never finishing the series.
