Hey that twist at the end just called to me. Basic list will have no daemons, oblits, possessed, etc. But two DP's with lash to represent Alpha's Control of the environment.

hmm, that is a good idea.

Any idea how you will model things to represent that? (as in not making it a demon)

Yeah, I talked to Danny, and he found some Inquisitor sized models that will do. He's going to help me learn to sculpt and stuff like that. So hopefully it will be converted from the normal looking stuff.

you're going to make it a large man?

I would do a group of marines on a monster base. Some with snipers, camo and such. Then you could say they represent marines that are misdirecting the enemy or something.

I'm thinking make it large, like a part of a cliff or some such, with marines at different levels on the model. Perhaps scouts mixed in. Could be really awesome.

*Spoiler* Don't read if you don't want to know some things about Legion

Subject: Re: Alpha Legion Tue May 20, 2008 7:14 pm

That is true, but even then... a primarch is only so much taller than a marine. Hardly inquisitor size.

well the inquisitor models are about 54 mm tall. So double a regular marine model and then some.
