MuGGzy Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I have been toying with making a chaos drop pod based force. Using the current plastic drop pod models and making them "chaosy" and using the Dreadclaw rules from the IA Vraks 2 book. It just sounds like it would be unique and pretty fun to play with. Has anyone used Dreadclaws, old or current rules? Any input or advice you could lend on the topic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drudge Dreadnought Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Havn't used them myself. Remember that to use forge world stuff you need opponent's permission and it won't be allowed in most tournies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuGGzy Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 well I have never played in a tourney and my LGS usually let you use whatever within reason. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I've used it, it can be fun. Especially when you load it up with Berserkers or a Dreadnought. The great part is it's reusable, unlike it's Imperial counterpart. But also remember, Chaos uses regular Drop Pods too. If you want the rules, pick up IA:7, that way you get the rules for a slew of other neat Chaos units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possessed Marine Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Personally I scratch built a drop pod before the plastic one was announced, was using IA rules w/ other players permission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heretic??ME?? Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Scratch built a dread claw a few years ago when the rules first came out, it was fun for games unfortunately it got squashed while moving house. Nowadays if I were doing a drop pod force I would be tempted to just use the marine codex, or use the drop pods in an Apocalypse game. Dread Claws are best used on big table, and big games as you can reuse them after they land. And the model is bigger than the drop pod. Question: how many drop pods are you talking about 5-10?
