These are the Space Marines from the Assault on Black Reach box set. I took these to Armies on Parade in 2022 and won a Bronze award.
Augmented Revenants
These are an Iron Hands successor chapter which fight in toxic environments that naturally results in a high rate of permanent injuries and subsequent amputations, as a result this chapter has embraced bionic enhancement. They are painted in a quartered black and red scheme with the right arm painted white.
The Captain, Tactical Marines, and Dreadnaught are of the second company, denoted by the yellow markings, while the Terminators are of the first company, which is denoted by their bronze helmets.

Terminators
These required a fair bit of restoration as I’d originally used them to expand another terminator squad up 10 miniatures, so I had to undo all of that and luckily the original pieces were all in a bits bag.
Display Board
The display board is made of a thick plasticard base, with steps made from foamcore, and the plinths and rubble all made from XPS foam. It did bend slightly from warping so I’ve since used foamcore or foamboard as the bottom layer on other boards.
I placed parts of a magnetic sheet to hold the minis in place and make it easy to transport. I wouldn’t go through the hassle again for a board like this, but it was nice to turn up to Armies on Parade and just place the whole display board down in one go.
The plaque is just a piece of paper glued to some plasticard, it wasn’t necessary but I didn’t know how these events went so added it just in case and made up a fluffy description, it also covered up some seams where I used several pieces of plasticard as I was running low around the front rim.
