Magnetising Marines from Betrayal at Calth

For the same reason why I magnetized the Terminators I wanted to do it with the Marines: maximum flexibility for the weapon options.

Even though I have already painted a couple of Sergeants, for the remaining ones I wanted to have the option to field them with Power Fist and Boltpistol or with Bolter.

Same thing for the Centurion, that I sometimes field simply with a Sword and Boltpistol.

All options arranged.

 I also modified the Centurion from the box so that the original weapon can be used in addition to any weapon used by any of the other Sergeants, so the polarity of the magnets is carefully considered to allow for all weapons to fit in all arms.

Original setup

For the regular Marines I wanted the option to field them with different special weapons. Therefore I put magnets on the Melta, Flamers, Volkites and regular Bolters.
Basically because Melta, Volkites and Flamers are not going to be part of my regular options, but I might use them, therefore when I do not need those, they will use Bolters.
Additionally I added magnets to the Vexillas, so I can decide when and how to use them.

And lastly I added magnets to the Traitor Librarian in Terminator Armour. Basically because it is impossible to store and transport if you glue it together.
