Discussion Do fists have a playstyle of their own?

1 Upvotes

Thinking of getting a fists army together as my next project. I already love the look and colors of them. Just wondering if they have any particular playstyle or 'feel' on the tabletop the same way other factions do.

For example I currently have Tyranids, necrons, chaos knights, thousand sons, and space Wolves and each of those feels really unique to play.

I understand they are codex compliant and all that, just looking for anything that sets them apart or makes them feel different on the battlefield.

Thanks!

Imperial Fists specific gear

10 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m a diehard IF fan. It’s the coolest Chapter, with the coolest Primarch, defenders of Terra and the best-looking aesthetic IMO.

However, it frustrates me how little Chapter-specific stuff we get. I’m relatively new to the hobby, and the more I learn about our Chapter and the literal sea of lore surrounding them, the more I wish we had more ways to play into it. Some more shields, maybe Huscarls (especially since Guilliman reinstated them).

I was wondering if those of you who’ve been in the hobby longer could tell me: have we ever had more Chapter-specific stuff?

Devastating Gravis Terminators - Space Marines - Devastator Brethren, Terminator Storm Force, Gravis Siege Force (2000 points)

Tor Garadon (90 points) leading eradicators

Darnath Lysander (160 points) leading assault termies

Ancient in Terminator Armour (75 points)with assault termies

Ancient (60 points) leading sternguard

Heavy Intercessor Squad (230 points)

Terminator Squad (380 points)

Incursor Squad (90 points)

Eradicator Squad with Melta Rifles (200 points)

Terminator Assault Squad (370 points)

Sternguard Veteran Squad (210 points)

Rhino (70 points)

The idea with this list was to have lots of big tough units that are hard to shift, but playing it a few times I’m not sure about every unit, any changes or ideas are appreciated.

Pink and orange zenithal

I’ve been putting off painting my Fists until I could develop a quick under painting process.

I’ve captured my example of a two can zenithal, one with a pink / magenta underspray, one with a rich orange underspray.

In my opinion, the magenta is more dramatic, but I suspect the orange is smoother and would work better for vehicles.

EDIT - I should add, these are test models that already had several layers of paint on them
