Prince of Ecstasy Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 So I'm planning on giving my Zerker champ a PF, but I'm currently in rather short supply. I was thinking he could have an arm from the old chaos mutations sprue and have that count as a PF. Khorne could have granted him the appendage as a gift for his Skull Champion-ness. I'm only concerned with tourneys and WYSIWYG rules. Some stuck-up might try and argue "That's not a PF, that's a mutation, so he has to be a possessed." Thoughts?

chillin Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 You very well could have a problem at tournys. In friendly games just tell your opponent b4 hand. A PF should not be hard to come by. I probably have 10 in my bits box (I hate the ones from the "new" csm's), if you have a LGS near you just strike up a conversation with some chaos or even s/m players, then ask if anyone could spare one. If someone ask me for one I would certainly give it to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of Ecstasy Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Meh, PFs are hard for me to come by since everyone I play against seems to use them. I myself put them on nearly every champ I have. I suppose I could scavenge around and if worse comes to worse, I could order bitz online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmlee Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Ya I'd find a real one esp if you've looked in my thread lol. But ya most people will give you one if they've got extras. I use all of mine on my normal csms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I would have thought that specific arms from the Possessed sprue actually replicate a power fist quite well (at least two of them do to my eyes, just file down the fingers a bit and remove any particular strong mutations from it), just be sure to paint it accordingly to show what it is (same colour as your power weapons etc) rather than some sort of majorly warped appendage. Â As for CSM PF's.. when you have to buy packs of 10, but require groups of 7 or 8 models, you end up with a group not having a power fist, so I know I had to buy some for my DG models in addition to the CSM boxes.

Chaos Lord Shamrockius Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If you're desperate for one, I've got some spare i would be willing to post if you're in the UK. Drop me a PM... :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Crippster Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 if its the new posessed ones, then there shouldn't be any problem with a minor conversion or two. they already look like fists. Â On a zerker however you could even consider just going power weapon because of the +1 Initiative. It's debatable, some people prefer s10 i1 and some prefer s5 i5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's debatable, some people prefer s10 i1 and some prefer s5 i5  PF with furious charge would be S9 I1 though, otherwise you're correct.

The_Crippster Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Didn't know the order there, thanks. Â Â I'd also just like to mention that I made a pretty bitchin pair of lightning claws with carved up sprue and the fist-y posessed hands, you can deffinetly make a fist.

Corpse. Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Easily construct a powerfist using spare parts. I try to go with a power klaw look, but more marine-ish. Huge pincers to a fist-like arm and it's good enough. I used dark eldar spiky parts chopped off their helmets/arms and I made one look like a dreadnought fist with claws like the Space Wolf dread. No pics, as usual, just an old laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of Ecstasy Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hm, well for now I only have the 4th edition possessed sprue, which you can find in the Chaos bitz section of GW's website /store. If you've got the sprue or can find a picture, I was thinking of using the crab-like claw, as I'd imagine it functions just like a PF would. Â However, I just found an extra PF in my bitz box and glued it on. :rolleyes: Lucky me, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithril hound Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Theres a crab claw one, or that one with heaps of spikes that would work. They look cooler thn a power fist anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Gaius Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Im a competitive player and certainly would not mind the mutation/PF thing. kinda cool actually, its chaos come on man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I can't see how anyone could complain assuming you don't have any normal Possessed in your army (which is fairly common). Its the same idea as using a Possessed model fo your AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
