I am a terrible hobby butterfly, so this was a bit trickier for me. My HH force would be based around Captain Polox and his Imperial Fists Legion’s 405th Company.

After the battle Polox with the remains of his company found themselves at Macragge.Īfter the Heresy, and the splitting of the Legions, Polox was the chapter master of the newly formed Crimson Fists chapter and led them for 800 years, During the Great Crusade, Polux became one of Rogal Dorn’s most senior captains, rising to his advisory council, the “Stone Men.”Ĭaptain Polox led primarch Dorn’s Retribution Fleet at the Battle of the Phall system against the Iron warriors. Therefore, a Horus Heresy project would have to be based on a force commanded by Alexis Polox, the Crimson Fist, first Chapter master of the Crimson Fists.

I’m more inclined by the second option as it leaves a question mark as to whether they are loyal or traitor….Īn easy choice for me, my 40k chapter of choice and the one that I am currently painting and playing with is the Crimson Fists. The second option is to claim that these particular Luna Wolves were left as a standing guard to ensure compliance of a particular planet and were somehow forgotten by their brethren. So how would I go about creating an army in this style? There’s two options here, the first is to simply say that loyalist Sons of Horus somehow survived Horus’s purge and turned their back on the Primarch by returning their colours to that of the Luna Wolves. That being said, the Luna Wolves were renamed the Sons of Horus by the time of the Horus Heresy. However, since reading the first few books in the Horus Heresy series I developed a love of the Luna Wolves.

I’m a massive Blood Angels fan and have been ever since I first got into the hobby. As such, we decided to do the choose your legion series of questions on Peter

A few of us at Woehammer are getting a little hyped for the new Horus Heresy edition.
