Imperium Magazine Issue 9 - Review & Battle Report - Duel in the Depths is the next installment as I run all 80 Battle Reports from the Warhammer 40,000 Imperium collection from Hachette Partworks and Games Workshop.
For each issue, I will bring you a fully painted battle report. Using that issues figures and rules. As well as a quick overview of the magazine. Got any questions, please do ask!
Imperium Magazine Issue 9 - is a two-parter as we build an entire Necron ten-warrior squad. With the first five warriors getting built with Guassflayers. Without a whole team, we instead get an HQ vs HQ battle report! Will the Marines win, or can the Necrons get another win? Currently, the series is 7-1 to the Necrons, so the Marines need the win.
Finally, my second Imperium Model is completed. The Primaris Lieutenant is an all-new character for me as I haven't played as a Space Marine gamer since the 3rd edition. So here's some lore:
Lieutenant (Space Marines)
A Primaris Space Marine lieutenant of the Ultramarines Chapter armed with Bolt Pistol and Power Sword
Lieutenant is an officer rank first found amongst the formations of the Primaris Space Marines, then later expanded to include the Firstborn. In the wake of the resurrection of the Primarch Roboute Guilliman in 999.M41 and his revisions to the Codex Astartes, the rank has been introduced to all the Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes since the start of the Indomitus Crusade. A lieutenant serves as a demi-company leader, with two assigned per full company of 100 Space Marines.
Lieutenants act as the right hands of their Captains by providing flexibility and helping to direct their battle brothers in engagements. Space Marine Battle Companies are frequently divided into two Battle Demi-companies of 50 Astartes to spread their forces across multiple combat zones. In most Chapters, the command of each demi-company falls to a lieutenant, who leads his brothers unflinchingly into battle.
Some Space Marine Chapters assign additional roles for lieutenants. The Salamanders, for example, have given these warriors a ceremonial duty as bodyguards to their company's captain, the three fighting as one.
Within the Iron Hands Chapter, they are charged as Naysmith, questioning their captain's battle plans to probe for Human errors within his logic.
So who is my Lieutenant? Let me introduce Lieutenant Cullen of the Executioners.
Armed with: Neo-volkite Pistol, Power Sword, Storm Shield, Frag Grenades and Krak Grenades.
