Black Templars inventory...

So with the new codex about 3 weeks away, I thought it'd be interesting to see what everyone's Black Templars armies contained.  That doesn't include allies or any other armies.  Just BT stuff.  And let's not even get started on how many boxes I've bought simply for bits purposes (i.e. Blood Angels Death Company/BT upgrade kits).  You don't have to post pictures and to be honest, there isn't really a way to manage it with the current Weebly comment system...but you can write it up if you so desire.  Anyway, yeah.  Over the course of the past 2 or 3 years I've downsized my army quite a bit, so that it doesn't take up so much room and is easier to move (as I've had to do that several times in that time span).  So let's get to it, shall we?

I'm not going to organize these into squads, as that makes it a little messy due to differing wargear options.  So I'll just list Sword Brethren, Initiates, etc.

Infantry:

  • Grimaldus & Servitor Retinue (1)
  • Marshals (4)
  • Chaplains (9)
  • Emperor's Champions (2)
  • Initiates (81)
  • Neophytes (10)
  • Assault Terminators (15)
  • Tactical Terminators (10)
  • Sword Brethren (5)
  • Attack Bike (1)

Vehicles:
  • Rhinos (5)
  • Razorbacks (4)
  • Land Raider (1)
  • Land Raider Crusaders (2)
  • Predators (4)
  • Dreadnoughts (4)
  • Land Speeders (7)
  • Vindicators (2)

Not too terrible a list, but dramatically smaller than what I had only two years ago.  Had about double the initiate/neophyte count, as well as another two rhinos/razorbacks (unbuilt), 2 drop pods, several SM bikes, etc.  That's the short list, because I'd have to do another whole list for that stuff.  lol!  It was approximately 6k points worth I sold off.  Maybe I'll build it back up after our new codex comes out.  We'll see.  Perhaps when I get everything painted (only about 1/2 painted sadly), I'll post pics of it all.  Anyway, looking to see what ya'll have.  :D

Ah, to hell with it.  I'll add my allies in too.

Allies:
  • IG Company Command Squad (1)
  • IG Veterans (20)
  • IG Guardsmen (10)
  • IG Chimeras (3)
  • IG Valkyrie (1)
  • IG Manticore (1)

So I'm getting the feeling that the majority of my readers...or at least those that are at least semi-competitive (since that is what I do here) have some exceptionally large armies. Its actually rather amazing to me.
