I would be surprised if they changed their armor trim based on assignments, considering the attachment of the Machine Spirit of the armor to the proper color schemes- see also the Deathwatch keeping original chapter markings on the one pad in order to avoid irking them. Of course, you'll also find quite a few things painted how they're painted "because they felt like it", so who's to say that the 5th Company didn't compel all their attached forces to paint their markings black for the Crusade At Bob's Planet in 997.M41?Conspyrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14135525348326754627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941712617872919216.post-27905679107042306952012-04-02T10:54:10.026-07:002012-04-02T10:54:10.026-07:00I hear you Conspyre, by attached I did mean "...I hear you Conspyre, by attached I did mean "seconded."

Unless the Fists use a weird organizational scheme for their Terminators, they don't get assigned to companies, they just get seconded to an engagement in the same way that many of the vehicles do- that's where the army badges come from. I don't remember if it's in the current SM book, but you'll get the same marking on everything from Guardsmen to Titans, kind of a morale thing more than FoF markings, I think.Conspyrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14135525348326754627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941712617872919216.post-41059963178237152672012-03-31T14:20:34.081-07:002012-03-31T14:20:34.081-07:00Looks good, I can practically hear the squelching ...Looks good, I can practically hear the squelching sounds.Thaddeushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12766454012810262152noreply@blogger.com
