Armaguerra Champion fanart by brushray

 Hey everyone! Fresh art for Iron Butchers www.instagram.com/enter.the.bu…
 Meet Armaguerra
The Character name is Armaguerra (I took that from an old Italian assault rifle and I liked also the sound of it, could be roughly translated in war weapon). This is not his real name, but a name he chose for himself after the Heresy.

Many of my Iron Warriors in the Iron Butchers became Khornate only after they allied with the World Eaters.
Armaguerra, instead, has been a follower of Khorne for many centuries before that.

He always loved to bring destruction and death above all, often forgetting tactics and strategies, losing his mind to the idea of just destroying everything.

This is why now he commands the Terminator squads that are unleashed only when the wanted result is total destruction.

He’s incapable of more subtle plans, keeping defensive positions, or anything that is more complex than a violent charge.
He’s also extremely proud and loves to collect trophies from his enemies.
He collects skulls for Khorne but not only that: he keeps pieces of armour, weapons and even medals or talismans taken from the greatest enemies he fought. (I imagine that the fur and the tusks are from two big alien beasts that he slew one some remote planet)

In fact, all his arsenal is not original but has been taken from dead enemies:
The Terminator armour is a modern Indmitus pattern took from a dead Black Templar Sergeant.

The chain fist is an ancient pattern, a dark relic took from the former terminator champion of the Iron Butchers that he killed in duel to take his place

His gun, called the Despiser, is a Dark Mechanicum modified combi bolter that channels the wielded hate and scorn into the bullets, and release them in an explosion when the bullets hit the target.
The Despiser was the personal weapon of a Iron Warrior Warsmith that Armaguerra killed during the Dispute of Iron on Medrengard
 ....
The greenskin charged with the force of a warmachine.
Armaguerra braced for the impact.
Two mountains clashed with the sound of thunder.
The Ork was huge, taller, and wider than him in his full Terminator armour, he was probably on its path to becoming a true Warboss, but that path ended today.

The Bad Moonz Meganob raised a monstrous chainsword to strike him down, but Armaguerra gripped its wrist with the powerfist before the strike could land.
The xeno was blind with rage as it started clubbing the enemy shoulder pad with the huge cleaver attached under its rude firearm.
To his surprise, he sensed the armour plate cracking under the greenskin's assault.
He had to end this quickly.
The Iron Warrior slowly concentrated his strength in the chainfist, forcing the beast’s arm holding the chainsword to bend and turn enough to allow his right arm to raise the Despiser and aim it under the xeno’s elbow.

The dark mechanicum bolter roared as a hail of bullets hit point-blank the creature’s elbow, ripping it from the arm.
Armaguerra rapidly threw away the severed limb.
In a desperate move, the Ork opened its enormous metal-maw, trying to crush the Terminator helmet with its hydraulic jaw, but the Khornate was faster.

The Iron Warrior punched the beast straight to its belly: the energy field blasted the thick armour apart, and the chainblade cut through muscles until it reached the soft entrails of the xeno.
Armaguerra grabbed its green bowels with his powerfist and ripped them off clean.
The ancient Terminator’s breathing system was so old and defective that the sickening fungal stench coming from the xeno’s open belly reached Armaguerra nostrils, filling with disgust even a Chaos veteran like him.
The Ork fell on its knees, but Armaguerra knew too well the impossible toughness of those beasts: he swung its chainfist horizontally, beheading the Meganob.

The Terminator grabbed the ork's head and impaled it to the spikes on the front of its belt.
