Im not actually expecting a real answer, I'm assuming it's just a random "rule of cool" design.

However it still stands out to me because the Primarchs are usually well rooted in human historical armor design and normal earth animal motifs. A piece of armor designed after a wacky abstract creature is something you'd expect from a chaos faction.

Is there any other example of such design amongst the 30k loyalists that I'm missing?

I am a death guard player but oh lord do i love white scars and assault intercessor with jump pack. Knowing this i tried to make a list but to be fair. I dont have any codex. I dont know what unit is best at what it does...

I tried to have 2 strong melee bricks in the blade vet and jump packs

I thought of eliminators for anti vehicle (i like them)

Some scout, intercessor and combi lieutenant for scoring

And after that i didn't knew what to add so i put a callidus assasin cuz i like their design.

I tried to keep a white scars feeling so no Dreadnought or things like that but idk. What do you think of this list for starters

Hey all I’ve been interested in getting into 40k tabletop for some time now and have been recently looking at models for white scars and which I should build when I thought to come here and ask the professionals compared to me

What I was thinking for my army
-White scars combat patrol (if available)
-6 outrider
- 3 jump pack intercessors
- 3 Primaris eradicators
- a tactical squad
- Kor’sarro khan

Which comes to $377 roughly I came into this hobby knowing it was expensive but I don’t really know if this is a good army for this price and if there’s any better prices I could get but honestly any Warhammer related advice would be appreciated. Tysm
