New Chaos Player - Word Bearers Legion

[Eliphas]

Hello folks,

 

I have played for a great deal of time Dawn of War Dark Crusade. At first I was not drawn to the Forces of Chaos but eventually I began to play their campaign. After months of looking for local players I eventually found a local Warhammer 40k Community and joined. I borrowed models now and then for friendly games but finally in two months I managed to Acquire my own soldiers and vehicles. I chose Chaos Space Marines after falling in love with them due to their lore, especially the Horus Heresy. From the "Traitor" Legions (more like betrayed legions) to me I have chosen the Word Bearers. I loved their colour scheme with Red and Silver. Very fitting for a Chaos army.

 

So far what I own is:

 

1x Chaos Battle Force (15 Space Marines, 8 Khorne Berzerkers, 5 posessed Marines and one Rhino)

1x Chaos Lord (Assembled but I am trying to make him look like Eliphas)

2x Chaos Space Marine Squads (10 model boxes)

1x Additional Rhino

1x Predator

1x Box of 12 Khorne Berzerkers.

 

Saturday there is a local contest here (prize would be another Battle Force). This is the list I made so far.
