As a diehard Dorn fanboy, I've never seen anything as heretical as converting a Black Templars Castellan into a traitor chaplain. I can't decide if I hate it or love it
To be fair. Black Templars are basically word bearers that weren’t labeled heretics because they worshipped the emperor as a god after it was cool 🤷🏼♂️
See, I like the Iron Warriors, because they’re upfront about what they are. It’s quickly becoming a fact that I’m loving the word bearers as my favorite traitor legion for the simple fact they’re so cartoonishly evil, and evil looks god tier in red.
It would be great to get another video like this just showing off your Grey Knights. I know you've done something similar in the past when you did your list building video, but a pure army showcase would be super cool!
Your World Bears turned out great by the way I chose Iron Warriors because I love Mk3 and they're Shrapnel weapons having a Bolter that shoots shotgun rounds is just cool and they're Primarch was a badass
This is great inspiration for me! I'm just getting a small Word Bearers force together having collected Iron Warriors for a long time. It was actually the new Possessed Marines kit that made me take the leap, I wanted to paint them, but want to stick to 30K.
I love how you prefer Mk4 and Tartoros. Which is the opposite of me. I love Mk3 and Cataphractii I just love the Medieval aspect of them. Which is why I love the Grey Knights for this reason
Every time I see one of your conversions it inspires me to go further with my own. I'm thinking some sort of Shield Captain with lightning claws and Ventari jumpack next..
The paint job and conversions are amazing. This is the kind of inspiration thats going to kick start my own Word Bearers! Hope you don't mind me shamlessly copying your ideas! These models are just awesome!
Playing the "bad guy" or getting into the "bad guy" is really fun if you do it in a way that you think out of their perspective. John Long Silver said it best in Muppets on treasure Island. - It's how you look at buccaneers that makes them bad or good And I see us as members of a noble brotherhood!
This army looks so awesome! Honestly its super cool to see your painting skills applied to something not GK, you're a good painter! And man I seriously LOVE that big apothecary 😍
You made me laugh throughout the video! Love the army and loved the presentation. If you haven't given it a try.... try out Kill Team 2021. I have really been enjoying it and you can use your models!
@@onelastblade3913 it is really annoying that we can’t run Terminators. One of my students runs his Blood angles Terminators as Custodes Talons of the Emperor and then uses the tactical ploys, the strategic ploys from the space marine rules. It’s a band aid fix but terminators are too cool not to use.
Excellent looking army with lovely conversions. Yeah sadly the Word Bearers are tough one to list build as so many of their good and flavour options are Elites choices. You never have the room for dreads, apothecaries, Ashen Circle, Mhara Gals and Gal Vorbak.
Love this army. My army is built as imperial heralds . So gray and gold with purity seals hanging off their armor. Amd i had a small portion of the legion corrupted ...argal tal amd galvorbak.
Any plans to run a Heresy event at your Seattle venue? Also, if you started a mailing list for the club I know I'd sign up for it, might help people who are close but outside Seattle keep up with the goings-on at Waystone. Thanks!
That's a pretty significant force, you should be proud. If you like Dreadnoughts I'd really suggest the tried and true Leviathan Dreadnought! He even has a snazzy new plastic kit! I can only imagine all the dirty looks from the grey Knights now that they have to share their shelves with dirty traitors. Or "shittiest little dumb assholes" as you put it. Because that's pretty much spot on for the Word Bearers. And especially Erebus. Because fuck Erebus.
nooooo, stoooooop, this makes me reconsider my decision to not play Horus Heresy :) Amazing army. i love how you explain all units and how they all have their own "story" in your army
I hadn't played with them in at least a year, and I had no real desire to continue painting them. So I was kind of done with them, I suppose. They were only taking up space on my shelf.
Came across this vid as I'm painting my own 30k Word Bearers! Great stuff man, good looking army, and fun and enganging commentary. Out of curiosity, what's your red recipe?
I spent the end of 2022 putting together my Word Bearers army (I went a bit far if I'm honest, I think I have a bit over 6k points lol). Only now getting around to painting them and have yet to play a game of Heresy at all. Having a real ballache of a time finding any knowledgeable HH2.0 gamers that can help me actually build a proper WB army list so if you've any advice about Rites of War, number of scoring units and general gameplan etc. that would be great.
@@onelastblade3913hey I know it’s been a year but I’ve started my own word bearers force and was really wondering where your buddy got that maul the green flaming hammer on your guy with the daemon arm 😅
I can't say I'm personally a fan of the Horus Heresy models (the novels I love) but this was a great explanation of how they work. Also, I've been meaning to ask, do you have a Discord or is that a patreon gated thing? Thanks!
Atmies looks good my guy and dig the good and evil vibe from owning grey knight and word bearers. I'm curious to know which armies you owns for both 30k 40k
The Ashen Circle looks to be a darker shade of red to the rest of the dudes. If I may ask, how did you paint the ashen circle? I’m trying to get a deep dark red almost purple red for my word bearers.
@@onelastblade3913 Nope, would never have guessed that! WOW! Gonna have to try this. I’ve come up with a scheme that uses Vallejo Premium Metallic Black all over and then airbrush Flesh Tearers Red over it. It gives me that purple/red that resembles the classic Dark Apostle artwork. But washing them ruins the finish. Might have to do a slow recess shade. Gonna see if I can do your Gore Grunta Fur concept on vehicles too.
they look great, but not going to lie you’re in the wrong game system to dislike 3d printing, heresy is very unsupported and too expensive, especially if you fancied buying jump packs or extra weapons and stuff- there you’d have to buy a full kit and then not use half of it

hahaha

You putting the stubbed shoulder pad on the wrong side is completely fine.
It makes them unique from each other
Great showcase, can see the passion in that force .
Any chance you could do a tutorial on them as you must be an expert at word bearers now.
My favourite videos are always the ones where you get to just gush about your little dudes! Great video, man - your passion is infectious.
See, I like the Iron Warriors, because they’re upfront about what they are.

Thanks so much for the inspiration! Been wanting to start WB (and 30k) for a few years now. You're getting me closer to starting!

THAT MACE TURNED OUT SO BALLER!!!
Sick collection

Thank you! Very flattering.
@@onelastblade3913 Hope you get them on the gaming table and show some pics/vids.
Dam that army looks nice I really want to seem them in action now. The kitbashing and conversions *chiefs kiss* I hope I can be that good some day
So cool. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your force Stephan! Really cool force!
Very awesome OLB, I love the army.
Looking forward to seeing more of the Word Bearers and maybe some Heresy games too?
Once I am confident enough with the rules that I don't spend the entire game thumbing through books? Maybe!
What a gorgeus army! Bloody well done!
very cool army brother. worthy of the pantheon
14:00 Thank you!
Awesome paint job! Super cool and very fast painted too.
Thank you! Cheers!

Will you be doing some Horus Heresy battle reports in the future? Wouldn't mind seeing them in 40k either.
Might do some 30k bat reps at some point! No interest in playing these guys in 40k, though. They're not made for that.
Some really cool conversion ideas in here. That apothecary especially looks slick.
Chaplain Chonk will forever live on in my heart
Looking awesome
You’re army is awesome especially the converted characters
Excellent work! Really dig the conversions on the characters. And agree, Tartaros look really cool!
This army looks so awesome! Honestly its super cool to see your painting skills applied to something not GK, you're a good painter! And man I seriously LOVE that big apothecary 😍
Your Praetor is top tier
Super cool!
Dark Gods smile upon this army! Been considering doing some Word Bearers myself.
they look great.
Thank you!
It’s nice to see a fellow Word bearers army!
Word bearers are a very popular legion in horus heresy table top
Beautiful army, I really enjoyed you talking about each unit and character, very soulful!
Awesome army. Well done. Turkey is done!
Will there be Horus Heresy Battle Reports at some point on this channel? Would love seeing you run these guys!
Maybe! I'm still very new to the game, and I'd like to be confident in the rules before I film anything.
You made me laugh throughout the video! Love the army and loved the presentation. If you haven't given it a try.... try out Kill Team 2021. I have really been enjoying it and you can use your models!
People play it at my store all the time! It's a really well-designed game. Once you can play GK Terminators, I'll jump on the bandwagon for sure.

Combi bolters are purchased off of forge world in groups of 5.
Aha! I knew it must be somewhere.
Nice work man
The legs came from the sanguinary priest
Excellent looking army with lovely conversions. Yeah sadly the Word Bearers are tough one to list build as so many of their good and flavour options are Elites choices. You never have the room for dreads, apothecaries, Ashen Circle, Mhara Gals and Gal Vorbak.
Amazing! work bud :-) Love Word Bearers they are so cool just the idea and flavour behind them :-) hhmmm corruption tastey ha
I very much enjoyed your video this day sir
Tremendous army!
You can get Combi-plasma from Forgeworld
Ah dang! You're right.
@@onelastblade3913 They give you a lot I only bought 2 sets of them and I still have plenty left
fantastic army
Glory to the Urizen!
Love this army. My army is built as imperial heralds . So gray and gold with purity seals hanging off their armor. Amd i had a small portion of the legion corrupted ...argal tal amd galvorbak.
amazing job! would u showcase your tau lizardmen? been awhile since we last saw them
I totally should!

I have a Leviathan on my painting desk right now!

Lookit these boys. They gonna have a fun time spreading words.
Such an incredible army, you really make the Dark Gods proud! Keep up the good work!
How come you sold your Exorcists army?
I hadn't played with them in at least a year, and I had no real desire to continue painting them. So I was kind of done with them, I suppose. They were only taking up space on my shelf.

how was the red painted? its beautiful

Thats a LOT of Word Bearers... and a lot of painting.
So nemesis bolters have the sniper keyword meaning you can pick what takes the wounds regardless
Ah good catch!

The Ashen Circle looks to be a darker shade of red to the rest of the dudes. If I may ask, how did you paint the ashen circle? I’m trying to get a deep dark red almost purple red for my word bearers.
The Ashen Circle were very different: I based them with Leadbelcher, and then used Goregrunta Contrast all over them.

Wait where is Zardu Layk? Did I miss him?
I recently Played against Dark Angels and my Imperial Fists won 6 to 5. I don't even have Phalanx Warders to run.
My fav army is a full army of contemptors people really hate me for it but what can ya do...play what u like.
God heresy 2.0 is great however you should stick thunderhammers on every single thing that can take them 😂
Initially I read the scroll on the Contemptor as "Hate Danish" and I wondered why you hate the Danish so much.
yes, succumb to 3d printing :) join the dark side
