(NOTE: I was supposed to post this two weeks ago! Oh well, better late than never.)
Well, Forge World has released three sets of "Legion Armour". I cannot for the life of me tell the difference between this and the "Crusade Armour" previously released. Above is the previous Mk II "Crusade" armour. And below is the Mk II "Legion" Armour. Can someone tell me what is different?
MK II LEGION ARMOUR
And there are also new Mk II and Mk IV "Legion" armour sets:
Mk III Legion Armour
and MK IV Legion Armour
Plus we get a whole range of new accessories, bolters, pistols and more.
From Forgeworld:
Released alongside these new armour sets are additional weapons and accessories sets. Will has designed a set of Tigrus Bolters, which contains ten resin weapons, and two sets of bolt pistols and pouches in both the Tigrus Pattern and Phobos Pattern.
In addition to all this Simon Egan and Edgar Skomorowski have designed sets of shoulder pads for the four Legions featured in The Horus Heresy Book I: Betrayal, each set containing ten resin shoulder pads for use with our variant power armour kits. This includes MkII armour Emperor’s Children, Sons of Horus, World Eaters and Death Guard shoulder pads, and MkIV armour Emperor’s Children, Sons of Horus, World Eaters and Death Guard shoulder pads.
All the Forge World Infantry accessories can be found here.

Clearly it's just a different name. It all looks great except for the anorexic legs. They really put me off these models.
ReplyDeleteAccording to email reponse (send Forge World an email with this exact question) there "Legion" variants come with a new set of legs/arms, and different chestplates. The images for MK II don't look any different (will know if the models truly are after I get my order) but if you look closely at the MK III pictures you'll notice the legs/arms are indeed posed differently, and there are different chestplates. Hope this helps.
