Hello All, thanks for dropping by, the second of a number of Adeptus Custodes reinforcements, last week's Shield Captain was a spare up for auction, but these are the first being added to my Custodes force this year. I have a number of models on the to-do pile inbetween Titans and Relictors, so something shiny and gold is a nice break from blues or grey!
Two are armed with Custodian Spears and one with Castellan Axe
The cloaks of these warriors really sets them apart from the Custodian Guardians.
I chose red plume and red Pauldrons not to distract from the rest of the Guardians scheme, but I have plans for a second squad of Praetorian type Allarus Terminators using purple as the contrasting colour.This was first modelled as a Vexilus Praetor, but careful Vexilla removal at the hand meant I could add a slightly modified (shorter haft at bottom) Guardian Spear. I quite like a mix of weapons across the army to choose, so the next squad will have Castellan Axes for the higher toughness enemies like Vehicles.
This one also has a Guardian Spear for more attacks and better AP, but sacrifices a little Strength and Damage over the Axe. Monsters in combat as they should be, but with my saving throws - maybe die quickly!
