Another old piece in my Black Legion army (oh, wait... I still say my, but I actually sold it to my friend Miguel, so please excuse me, I miss those tiny figures. BTW, I encourage you all to visit his quite recent web www.laserburn.org. A truly must see in Spanish wargaming panorama). What was I saying... Oh, yes. Another old piece in my former Black Legion army was this Rogue Trader Squad. I repainted it some years ago in Black Legion colours and I used the Egyptian pattern I was getting fond of then.

| Awful photo, I know, I know... |
No spikes, no mutations, nothing like that. It would pass like any loyal Space Marine Legion -apart from the colours and the squakey Eye of Horus, of course.
 |
| No instagram, the photo is just itself this blurry |
I attached a Rhino APC to this Squad. It's a Mk.I, of course, as it's the only thing that truly suited this guys.
 |
| Broken exhausts and no original bolters, I tried my best |
 |
| Also, all the bars were broken and/or missing :( |
 |
| Hey! One fine exhaust! So there! |
Finally, here it is the family photo, the Squad and its transport.
Although Forge World is currently selling models which try to simulate the original figures, I still think these old ones are unsurpassable in their own way. It's most probably the nostalgia factor, but I'd rather prefer them than the new ones. Don't misunderstand me, I also bought some of the Forge World marines, but these tiny little pieces of plastic have a place in my heart ;)
