Path of the Outcast

Rangers are a regular presence on Exodite worlds. Couple that with my misunderstanding of how armies were built in modern 40K (I was still thinking in terms of HQ, troops, fast attack, and heavy support from 3rd ed!) and I felt I just had to make some Rangers with an Exodite flavour.

The lore for Craftworld Rangers makes a number of mentions of outcasts spending time on the Exodite worlds. So it’s not too hard to believe that some of them go a little native.

With that in mind, I wanted to build a relatively straightforward unit of Rangers with a few tweaks and nods towards the fact they’ve adopted a few practices from the Exodites.

The changes are pretty straightforward. The Ranger on the left had a hand swap with a figure from the Corvus Cabal set to give her a little birdy pal.

The chap with the big sword got it from a Corsair. He also got a little adornment on his belt from the Raven Guard Primaris upgrade sprue (thanks to @painosspaints for that tip!)

The third Ranger was meant to be more straightforward, but I ended up giving him a head from the Voidscarred Corsair box, and a pouch and arm from the Corvus Cabal set.
