Pedro Kantor, Chapter Master of the Crimson Fists, Praetor Encarmine of the Loki Sector, Hero of the Imperium. Son of Dorne.

“We have been wounded sorely. Yet we still stand, with fire in our eyes and valor in our hearts. Let them think us beaten. We will teach them otherwise.” -Pedro Kantor at the Invasion of Rynn’s World.

Well, looks like somebody decided to hop across the Rubicon Primaris. I’ve been working on this model on and off, gathering pieces and planning out design for almost a year at this point, and I’m proud to call this bad boy done. Part of the reason the Crimson Fists are my favorite chapter is Pedro himself. The mixture of stoic bravado, tactical sensibility and compassion of this Chapter Master is a rare thing in the 41st Millennium, and I thought that deserved a Primaris upgrade.

Parts used include the vanilla Primaris Captain, pieces of an Intercessor kit, the Imperial Fist Primaris Upgrade Kit, Ultramarine Space Marine upgrade kit, Aggressor Primaris Kit and some disparate shale and skulls to make up the base.

Fly Boss Gubnez Skystomper

Big-Dakka Skwadron

Gubnez has claimed more kills than any other Ork Air Waaagh! pilot during the taking of New Rynn Spaceport, earning his skwadron the title of Big-Dakka. In fact, Gubnez liked dakka so much, it often took his Fighta-bommer several tries to get off the ground under the weight of all its guns!

We have been wounded sorely. Yet still we stand, with fire in our eyes and valour in our hearts. Let them think us beaten. We shall teach them otherwise.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is more than war. There are real people there too. -Dan Abnett

The Space Marine Battles Novel Rynn's World has an especially heartwrenching scene that doubles as a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming. Captain Cortez saves a mother and her children (one of whom is just a baby) from being murdered by Orks. Chapter Master Pedro Kantor is less than pleased with this development, as there are (to his knowledge) only a dozen or so Crimson Fists left after the destruction of their monestery, and they cannot afford to bring refugees along. But Kantor says that the family can tag along as long as they can keep pace with the Space Marines, which anyone will tell you is no small feat. After a while, the mother becomes tired and unable to keep up. Kantor moves to the back of the column, to (as the reader is led to believe) "grant her the final mercy." As he kneels next to the mother with his wrist-mounted storm bolter pointed disturbingly close to her head, we believe he's going to kill her. Then, after the mother pants that she tried, but her children were just so heavy, Kantor (who, I feel the need to stress, did not want her there in the first place) replies with the following:

Kantor: You did well to bring them this far....It is time that someone carried you now.
