Know back in an earlier WD Us version, Dan Abnett wrote a little article of the Blood Pact, it featured history and the like. At the end of the article it said that the Blood Pact could best represented by the Lost and the Dammed army list in the EOT campaign. But being me I could pass up to make a Blood Pact codex.
I'm half way through the book right now. But any suggestions, or comments other stuff would be greatly apperciated
Right now the army is composed of
Hq
Command Platoon
Elites
Death Brigades w Veterans Skills
Blood Pact Assault Teams
Blood Pact Snipers
Troops
Loxatl Broods
0-2 Death Brigades w/o Veterans Skills
Blood Pact Line Troopers
0-1 Armored Fist Unit
Fast Attack
Sentinel Squadrons
0-1 Salamander Scout Tank
Heavy Support
0-2 Leman Russ Battle Tanks
Stalk Tanks
Heavy Weapons Platoons
Booby Traps
So whatda think?

Seems good to me so far. Coupla fluff questions tho:
1). Were bloodpackfighting alongside chao or the imperium (i ask cuz if you used L&D models I assumed they were chaos dudes)
2). Know anywhere where I cn find more fluff :rolleyes:

The Blood Pack were orginally a Gaur's bodyguard, Gaur=Priest of Khorne. Then it is suggested that the Gaur's power grew to neiboring worlds and so the Gaurs bodyguard formed into an army
Fluff in US WD 292

Just a few suggestion cus it seems prettydamn good at the minute.
My suggestion r seening as they are followers of khorne(or at least there leader is/was) why not allow them 2 have demons as elites.
Also couldnt u come up with sumit better than booby traps.

In the article the Dan wrote he said that the Blood Pact do not use deamons
Also the Blood Pact are excellent at ambushes and booby traps I think it would be suitable to use such things as ambushes and booby.
My 3 main codexs i used are the IG, Chaos, and the old Catachan/ Deathworld Vet List.

Dude this is great!!! I wanted to start an I.G. army but im tired of playin the "Good Guys" so to speak. So i was looking into traitor I.G. regiments and i found the blood pact. They really apealed to me because i also wanted to start a world eaters army. Now i get two for the price of one!! So do you know where i can find any fluff besides in the white dwarf. Thanks for the Help And KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

Also i was just wondering seening as they r followers of khorne(cant remember rules for cultist so dont moan if im wrong or what) do they get the mark of khorne and its benfits.
Also would u consider alowwing them a unit of zerkers as a 0-1 choice.

This is Stinkoman, I forgot my password so I created a new SN, But yeah Dreg I see your point on the Mark of Khorne, Like my first post you can get Death Bridgades with a Vet Skill, so you could just add a Feroius Charge Vet Skill
According to Blood Pact fluff The Blood Pact does not incorparate daemons or Chaos SM's of any kind. I am sad to say no I can not allow bezerkers or bloodletters.
other than in WD check out the Gaunt's Ghost series. I getting them for my B-day
Thank's for all the support I am working on The Army list and rules. Also Could anyone play test the list in a game? Let me know how that works out!
Dreg - September 7, 2005 10:03 PM (GMT)
Ill get an imp player 2 test ti out for u but 1 i need the stats or what stats 2 use (what book) and im adding a vet skill 2 it to incorprate the amrk of khorne.
Dha Fulwakaqsh - September 7, 2005 10:10 PM (GMT)
I will post the list but use the IG, Chaos, and Catachan codexes
Dreg - September 7, 2005 10:13 PM (GMT)
Also i just red thorugh there fluff and it says they defillers bassilisk and captured leaman russes so i think u shoudl add defiller and bassilikes or at elast defiler.
Dha Fulwakaqsh - September 8, 2005 01:21 AM (GMT)
Stalk Tank stats will represented by Defiler stats, while I would add a basilik choice to HS, I think they're too many chioces for HS.

I dont think theres that many chocies tbh and i wouldnt include booby traps anyway if i was u i would have a squad to repersent it like an amubsh squad(starts of board hiding in a specfic palce when enemy moves near they open fire in enemy turn and charge etc) i think that would show the pacts booby/ambush style better tbh.
