PourSpelur Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 I'm thinking about doing corporate warriors. Power Armored brutes toting the finest in military hardware and covered head-to-toe in sponsorships. Think Dune's Sardaukar meets NASCAR driver. What army book best supports this? I'm thinking either Sisters or Legion of the Damned. Sisters pro: They're humans in power armor. They have vehicles, lots of opportunity to go hog wild with logos. Sisters con: Did them last year. Legion pro: Less models means more love per model. You never see them on the table. They're plenty random for fun OFCC games. I can call the list "Legion of the Brand" I love punny names;) Legion con: The models I'll use aren't very Space Marine-y. No vehicles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Legion. All the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 The pros/cons list definitely points toward Legion. However, you can't run Legion solo (They have to start in Reserves, and can't show up Turn 1, so you'd get auto-tabled every Game without something else), so maybe look for something that could work as Allies to start on the board and bring some Vehicles to plaster with ads.

PourSpelur Posted January 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Did you just invent Inquisitor Alahamba VonFabulousa ibn Glorioso?!? S/he's the blinginest Inq to ever pimp slap a cultist with a filigree'd Antusian emerald rosette ever! Followed around by the sharpest dressed followers of course. How's all this sartorial magnificence paid for? Sponsorships on the Legion;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 I could see you putting those rat people to good use with her. Some Chimera Chassis with acolytes inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted January 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 That's the idea. I have some beautiful Perry Bro guys I'm thinking about using as acolytes in Chimeras. Bling'd out Inquisitor, fancy pants knightly acolytes, Chimeras (maybe) and a ton of Corporate Wars Legion of the Damned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalmer Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 As a former motorcycle roadracer, don't discount the sponsorship advertising plastered all over bikes. Maybe some modeling opportunities there, too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'll be digging into sponsorship/logo styles and schemes over the next week or so. Kinda torn on using real sponsors/logos or made up ones. On one hand there's all the reference material in the world for real logos. On the other hand, fake sponsors could be fun too.Marcus Munitions, Slurm soda etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalmer Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hello there, Go fake all the way, that'd be hilarious. Just think of all the funny fake stuff you can come up with: different arms manufacturers, secondary market stuff, real grimdarkish corporate stuff, etc. Plus you can add your beloved puns! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 If you haven't read it, try to get a hold of some of the Transmetropolitan trade paperbacks and just look at the stuff Robertson stuck in the backgrounds for more ideas.

PourSpelur Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Holy macaroni! You're good at this!! Inquisitor Arachnid Mecca and his "Filthy Assistants" acolytes for an Inquisitorial warband. Backed up by Legion of the Damned, i.e. The Smiler's jack booted thugs, brought to you by Deluxe Hobo Chow™ "now with 35% more real hobo! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I've been wanting for ages to do a bunch of Arbites like the CPD riot troopers, with "SUBMIT NOW" on the front of their shields. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 That's one hell of an idea! Everytime you declare an action, you need to add 'Brought to you by Sponsor name'. i.e. "I'm going to fire meltas at your knight... brought to you by K&J Magnetics." 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I think this means you also need to wear sponsorships as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterman Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I feel like you need a biker smash chapter master and some sort of foot combat unit so you have the opportunity to say 'slingshot engaged' in every game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
