Proxy Grey Knight Henchmen
« on: 28 February 2012, 02:24:17 AM »
I am planning to use these old models as Grey Knight Henchman.

These are old Warzone Brotherhood models.





Not sure what make these are, they were given to me a while back but I thought they suited the army style.

So much to do, so little time...

I think they are Alternative Armies "Ion Age".

Nicely baroque models there.
Back from the dead, almost.

Confirm, they are Alternative armies - look like Retained knights.  Still available from AA, too.
They also had a less heavily armoured troop - the levies, who were more your lowly human guardsman scum.

Yup; those minis in the last picture are definitaly Ion Age. Can't speak for the first two, but I'm sure they'll fit right in.

The 3rd picture shows Knights of the Household, or something like that, and the first two could then probably be lower on the hierarchy, like serfs, inducted militia or similar.

I believe the entire Ion Age line was revived about half a year ago. It piqued my interest, as I too, was given one of those models at one time, didn't know what to make of it and finally painted it just for the heck of it. I love the style, especially of those knights!

Daeothar -- the first two pics are Warzone troops from the Brotherhood faction; I forget the exact troop types, but I suspect the guys in the second picture are Mortificators of some kind.

Coronasan, if you're interested, Alternative Armies Ion Age models are still available, and at pretty reasonable prices! You can find them here:

Thanks, I could do with picking up a few more to max out the squad size.

Cracking job! Those Brotherhood figures look great-that is just about the best I have every seen them look. I have a few, and you have given me inspiration to paint them up for one of my not-40K games.

I might field them as some sort of Adeptus Custodes proxies....
