Introduction: Sanguine Directive 07-Null

The first finished unit, a tactical squad

The Sanguine Directive 07-Null is my personal Warhammer: The Horus Heresy Blackshields project – a grim experiment in lore, conversions, and game mechanics. At its core stands a rogue warband of genetically unstable clones, the result of forgotten experiments on IX Legion geneseed.

As clones they are despised by both Loyalists and Traitors alike. Distrusted allies at best, abominations at worst.

My goal is to create a force that clearly sets itself apart from the classic Legions – eerie, ritualistic, marked by the failure of their own creation. Their armour is, by definition, Mk V, and their gear looks improvised and alien. In practice, it’s a mix of plastic Mk III and Mk VI kits, with plenty of Green Stuff tubing thrown in ;)

I hope I find the time to share more about my Blackshields here! I’ll definitely be reusing some of the lore snippets from my Instagram posts as well :)
