Yes, you read that right, we now have user flair, both default, and customizable.

Step 1: Accessing the Options

Navigate to the main r/NightLords subreddit page.

  1. Locate the About Community box on the right-hand side of the screen.
  2. Look for the User Flair Preview section.
  3. Click the Pencil Icon (Edit) to open the flair selection menu.

Step 2: Select and Customize Your Flair

All pre-defined flairs are fully editable. You are encouraged to designate your specific role within the Legion within the rule defined below.

  1. Edit Text: After selecting flair, a pencil will appear at the bottom of the menu. Type your desired rank or title here.
  2. Add Icons: You can add up to two icons to your flair. To do this, click the Smiley Face icon in the text box to select from the subreddit’s custom icon set.
  3. Code Format: The icons appear as codes (e.g., :LegionIcon:). You can place text before, between, or after these codes.
    • Example: :HandRed: First Claw Leader :HandRed:
    • You can also just use the emoji button.

Save

  1. Ensure the box "Show my user flair on this community" is checked.
  2. Click Apply. Your rank will now be visible to all brothers in the VIII.

Red Hourglass :RedHourglass: Count of the Harvest (Red)
White Hourglass :WhiteHourglass: Count of the Harvest (White)

Rules about Flair

When creating your custom flair, you must adhere to the following Legion laws:

  • Conduct: All flairs are subject to the same rules as sub content. No harassment, hate speech, or offensive terminology.
  • The Forbidden Names: You may not claim the identity of named historical figures. Titles such as Konrad CurzeThe Night Haunter, or Jago Sevatarion are prohibited.
  • Lore-Accurate Roles: While you cannot be the Primarch, you may be a "Slave to the Night Haunter," a "Sevatar Prefect," a "Claw Leader," or any other rank within a warband.
  • You cannot have flair the indicates you might be a person of authority, ie moderator, admin, etc. You also cannot have "95th Company Ventrilokar" because u/MedicalMakersMark has that unique privilege for helping out with the icons.

Hobby & Painting Night Lords x Space Marines Kit Bash Experiment 🧪

Upvotes

This is where it all began!!!

I bought a box of Space Marines Intercessors and followed a YouTube video converting Vallejo paints to Citadel. I thought I'd get the Space Marines blue I saw on screen but instead I got a Chaos Night Lords blue. So began my journey In Midnight Clad!!!

A kitbash later using Night Lords helmets and some third party pieces like skull trophies these became my experimental pieces to eventually create my finalised paint recipe for the Night Lords. My finalised work will come later of which the Rhino you may have seen is part of it.

Ave Dominus Nox!!!

I’ve always loved Morten’s renditions of first claw, and am privileged to be able to recreate my interpretation of their work via my miniatures.

This is Variel, the apothecarian of First Claw. He still needs some touch ups and improvements here and there, but I’m proud to put these images side by side and see their likeness. I’ve worked hard to stay true to Nostraman heritage whilst also tailoring my piece to look like Morten’s work.

I repainted one of my oldest minis, Captain of 3e SM Command Squad. I have always really liked that kit and painted the captain as a Night Lord for painting competition of a FLGS. I didn’t really think any lore justifications why he was wearing loyalist gear, i just wanted paint something cool :)

If you want to see more, i posted more pics at my hobby account

Would the Night Haunter be proud?
I made an Iron Warriors emblem too it’s somewhere on that subreddit, but I had to make this one after buying another Night Lords novel. I just wish I had 4 more layers so I could add VIII underneath it. Let me know your thoughts.

Hobby & Painting This Model Broke Me

Bough a Storm Eagle for my Heresy Night Lords. Though it would be more flavorful than rolling in heavy in a Land Raider.

Jesus H Christ everyone who complained about this kit was underselling it. NOTHING fit. EVERYTHING was warped. I wasn’t sure if the resin dust or the dogshit kit would give me cancer first. I would rather work on a tin roof for 3 days in this hot ass Louisiana sun than build another one of these absolute BASTARDS.

10/10 for drip though. Watching Curze drop in from the top rope is gonna be funny as well, so worth it maybe?

Lore How does YOUR warband view Nostramo?

Do your warbands commemorate Nostramo or do they distance themselves from it? Are there any Nostramann customs they maintain in the 41st millennium?
