The new Horus Heresy Loyalist Consul model stands by the Emperor in the Horus Heresy and plays a pivotal role in carrying Legion Standards into battle.
The Horus Heresy was a galaxy-wide inferno, with billions giving their lives in battles fueled by unshakable conviction. Among the chaos of war, Legion Standards became a powerful rallying symbol, hearkening back to ancient military traditions. These banners weren’t just decoration—they were the soul of each Legion, carried into battle by the steadfast Herald Consuls.
New Horus Heresy Loyalist Herald Consul
Herald Consuls are more than just warriors; they’re trusted figures who have earned the respect of their Primarchs. Carrying a Legion Standard into battle is both an honor and a massive responsibility in the Horus Heresy. These banners rally troops, provide a clear point of focus in the heat of battle, and embody the ideals of their Legion.
Enemy forces know how important these standards are, which makes the Heralds prime targets. The Loyalist Herald Consul is a testament to their resolve, bearing a bionic leg from injuries sustained while defending his Legion’s honor. Equipped with a power fist, he’s more than capable of protecting the banner from those who would seek to steal or destroy it.
Why Standards Matter
A Legion Standard isn’t just a flag—it’s a symbol of unity, courage, and purpose. In the heat of battle, it inspires warriors to press on even as beams and shells tear through the skies. For the Loyalist Herald Consul, carrying this banner is an act of loyalty and defiance against those who would see the Imperium fall.
Coming Soon
The Loyalist Herald Consul, crafted in Forge World resin, is set to arrive later this year. Fans of Ultramarines and Dark Angels can already imagine their heroes marching forward, standards held high. Stay tuned for next week’s reveal, featuring a Consul whose banner tells a very different story.
