I know absolutely nothing about them, but I found an old Micro Machine test piece I did (& never used the paint scheme..) YEARS ago. Bone/white & green. |
Tuff, if you are serious about doing a Mentor legion, I have a WD in the early 100's somewhere with a description of them.
Basically, they collect experimental weapons and have a huge store of test pieces. They have access to some very exotic stuff, and they are the replacement 888 Chapter._________________ https://www.cybershadow.ninja - A brief look into my twisted world, including wargames and beyond. https://www.net-armageddon.org - The official NetEA (Epic Armageddon) site and resource.

Cheers guys,
Shortly after posting I thouht I'd get off my butt & do some research.
Found all I need, but the main unfortunate thing is that they are usually only fielded in small units which are leant to other forces as elite troops. Living most of thier lives in training they're aparently the single most elite chapter. Kinda cool theory (somewhat overtaken in later fluff by Deathwatch I guess...) but it kills them as an "epic" army. Might have to convert a since detachment of them though - could add an interesting characterful unit to an army from another chapter I guess 
I'll stop highjacking this thread now  _________________ Cheers, Paul "TuffSkull" T. http://hobbybrush.com - My New Website, with thousands of painted Mini Pics :) http://hobbybrush.blogspot.com - My Hobby Blog TuffSkull's notepad- My Old Blog on Wargames Wiki.

I just took a couple of pics of a page in the 'Fantasy Miniatures 1990' book of the GD awards and stuck them in my Briefcase- someone entered quite a nice Mentors Land Raider... sorry for the dreadful angles as the page was rather shiny to do it any other way and my scanner is broken.. 
Hehe, anyway, hope it helps, and heres the link: http://uk.f1.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/space_wolf_15

Thanks for comments and suggestions everybody. I think I'll go for the Death Knights using my own color scheme and the insignia of Warmongers. I've also decided to settle for Canon Powershot A80; any better camera and it'd just have a host of features usable only to professionals like Jimbo.  That means I might even get pics of my minis up somewhere...

Well, technically, the Scars are more a heavy cav unit, at least in 40k, and I'd think to a large extent in Epic. They charge things and kill them. Light cav would be more like Dark Angel Ravenwing or Eldar Saim-Hann, IMHO.
Anyhoo, I'll babble about short histories of the chapters if someone else doesn't soon, but I'm short on time at the moment.

The histories are scattered throughout the Codexs and W/D articles. Getting a hold of the Codexs would be the short answer.

GW's Index Astartes books are also worth picking up if you can't get copies of the WDs the articles originally appeared in...

There's an ongoing collective net project called the "40K fluff bible." The idea being to collect all the major pieces of fluff into one giant source. I'm sure if you do a Google search on it, you'll turn up several copies.
I can't vouch for how much info from the individual marine chapters is in it, but it did have a bit of scarce titan legion info when I was compiling that list.
Also, I'm sure there are lots of fan sites out there that will include the official background for whatever chapter the site is dedicated to.
