Valhallan Ice Warriors Showcase

Valhalla is one of the poorest planets in the Imperium of man. To try and demonstrate this more, I chose non matching single piece colour coats, pants, and boots. Only most of their lasguns and leather goods matched. That and the gold aquilas provided by the Administratum to make sure their priorities are up to code. Their priority of vehicles is based on World War II Russian style tank loadouts. Heavy tanks outfitted with medium cannons were their end war signature, so I assigned them the Leman Russ Annihilator and covered transports like the Crasus for shuttling around unwilling conscripts.

My Valhallan Ice Warriors as of 09/04/23
Because of their poor equipment, I gave them my 5 dollar rescue Wyvern and Manticore I fixed up. I also assigned them a Samaritan due to their focus on infantry and a Chimedon to demonstrate their forced ingenuity to keep war gear functioning.
These Macharius proxies started as a commission to get a new player started, but I did not realize they were so up scaled during production. They originally were going to be Ragnorak tanks, but instead became three Macharius Vulcans and a Macharius Vanquisher. Another Macharius Vanquisher and a Macharius Battle Tank were given to my cousin to get him started as well.
The Crassus was so delightfully rough looking the way I bought it I kept it the same. The Doomhammer brings a massive amount of close fire support with its eight Heavy Flamers, ensuring troops can have the worse of threats cleared before Disembarking at a later turn. Of course, they could also use their Regiment rule to lock an enemy into contact so it can obliterate both of them a turn later as well.
I got a bit excited with the snow effect, but overall enjoyed painting them a lot. Featured here are two Veteran units with some of the precious few Special Weapons I own for them.
Commander Chenkov leads the Platoon Command Squad, ever ready to Send in the Next Wave with one of the conscript units. Like the Doomhammer, the Command Squad is ready to sacrifice their own units if need be to get the enemy in a bunched position.
The Platoon brings three Guardsmen Squads with them to secure Objective Markers while the Veterans target priority threats and the Conscripts die for the Emperor.
A Minostorum Priest leads the fifty man Conscript Squad to a glorious death for the Emperor.
A Lord Commissar leads a twenty man Conscript Squad to die for the Emperor.
The GW old metal kit Leman Russ Annihilators are frequently mistaken for Leman Russ Exterminators. Exterminators never got a metal kit and are a fairly new as far as Leman Russ Variants go. A Tank Commander kitted out for killing Titanic units was left exactly the way I bought it because it looked so good.
