Apocalypse Help!

Alright just an Apoc-chaos thread for everyone, Im just asking for a little help for my fluff, anyone can feel free to post their fluff for fluff-related choices and help, plus ideas.

 

 

 

Here's my boat:

 

Ive got a walker-only no jump packs, jet packs or fleet and my units must be fearless (noise marines, berzerkers, chaos lords etc)

 

So roughly not to share a long fluff thingy to read I'll just summarise. My sorcerer founder of my legion plays around with the tech-virus and he accidently discovers a type of cursing mutation that enhances the dudes, but renders the something like rubric marines in a way with metal tenticle bodies and a power core that's mixed with their soul. Their "mental capacity" defines how much they are limited to and their limit cannot be changed, and only marines can be infected due to geneseed+metal melding/smelting together. So just walkers and fearless, vehicles are accepted and so on.

 

Ive got various fluff bits accepting most of the chaos units, but I thought about apocalypse and it struck me, I can expand other armies units of similar requirements. (Since I cut myself off from half my codex anyways, I figure why not). Even go as far as using a monstrous creature from another codex to represent the original sorcerer who started it all. Im a bit stingy on using heavy cutter lists for apoc since 5th edition is looming and I require many troops to take objectives with mobility in mind. (teleport/move and shoot effectively) So thousand sons, Noise Marines, Obliterators and the like are going to be my core. Ive been running dry on creativity lately however. My tenticle dudes been collecting dust incomplete until I saw some 5th edition (I got a peek). So, being troop heavy now a base requirement even for apoc... The catch on my request? The unit >cannot< be upgraded with anything. Thats right, no champs, special weapons that the entire unit cannot be equipped with, total necron style-chaos.

 

So what units and models can you guys think of that can fit my theme of fearless+move as infantry(deep strike is ok) and can work alright without a single upgrade or all upgraded equally?

 

Off the top off my head that is not in the chaos codex (not all PA related, sorry)

Deathwing, Zoanthropes with Synapse, Tyranid Warriors, Most units in the new Daemon Codex (I peeked in that one too), Hive Tyrants, Lictors, Death Company, Maybe a Chaplain leading a unit he sticks with the entire game, Tomb Spyders, Talos, Wraithlord, Wraithguard, The four Assassins, Sisters Repentia, Arco Flagellants, Pentient Engines, Death-Cult Assassins, Any dreadnoughts or walkers.

 

Note on all of this I dont intend on adding all of this, Im just looking at my options and I like to know all my options before I decide which couple fit my fluff best so I can make up some more tenticle-marine-like warriors to properly represent them. I wont be using special characters/avatar/C'Tan from any codex, though. All will be made much like my regulars, but just for apocalypse. :)

 

Im pretty into the updates and some general ideas how to get army lists working with your 10 tanks of doom to bring around scoring units (only troops can score in 5th *mods, its a major rumor all over warseer+BOLS, please dont edit my post*) to help make your armies work so post here if you like some help in the updating.

 

(Final Note, I'm going 50% points into troop choices for apoc)
