Hobby Update 30/01/20- White Scars Inceptors

Today's Hobby Update features two units of Inceptors for my White Scars army. I recently started adding these units to my White Scars tournament list.

I find the firepower and mobility of the squads to be quite useful in my games. I normally bring them on in turn 2, where the Tactical Doctrine means their Assault Bolters are at AP-2. Keeping them in reserve also keeps them free from enemy firepower for the first turn.

  1. Those look incredible. It gave me shivers to think of painting that much white. :) Really well done.

    1. Not too bad actually. I pin them on to the models, so it makes them a lot easier to glue on.

  6. Nooice! I found these a bitch to paint and only did 3. Mind you, they were overcosted crap when they came out. I hope your experience with them is better!

    1. I didn't find them too bad actually. I don't tend to line highlight my White Scars, as it makes very little difference to the look compared to my other Chapters. The armour is pretty quick to paint, and I don't pick out too many details, keeping to a rather simple colour palette.

      They have improved a lot, with points drops, an extra wound and the extra AP from the Doctrines, I think they are actually a pretty solid unit.
