Agramar_The_Luna_Wolf Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 In your opinion what's a good proportion of cult units in undivided chaos armies? For example....hummm...one per 1k points?or something similar. and what about size of units and HQ? I ask this,because i think my black legion is now very close to a cult army:i have too much units and my HQ is has a chaos mark... Thanks for yours advice and opinions ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Don't worry, fluffwise your HQ could carry any Mark, your list could be chock full of Cult Units and it would still be a Black Legion force. That is the beauty of the Black Legion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Nihm Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Then it's just a question of repainting then isn't it? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheff Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 As mentioned in another thread, my cult units either have mostly black armour with cult colours as secondary (KB) or mostly cult colours with black as a secondary colour (PM) - If you've already painted your cult troops, the latter might be an easier option.

Wolfbiter Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 @OP With my Alpha Legion force, I tend to play with just regular CSM troops at 1000 pts or under, but at 1,500 points I often like to include a squad of 9 Thousand Sons Marines. Mainly because they are also one of my favorite Legions visually. I generally explain it fluff-wise that a wandering Aspiring Sorcerer and his Rubrics have joined the AL force temporarily to advance his own inscrutable goals. :) Back in the 3.5 Codex days, I had two alternative lists, one using "pure" AL with the Infiltration benefits, and one "generic list" using the same force but without the AL-specific benefits so I could include my Thousand Sons unit in the list. Both were a lot of fun for me to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corpse. Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 If you have a solid core it would work decently at low games as it does higher games right? I use a raider with 10 berzerkers in 1000 points and it works just as good as 3 raiders full of zerkers at 1500-2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minigun762 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 On this same theme, I'm thinking of inducting a squad or two of Noise Marines into my IW list. Visually, what do you think would look better on the tabletop, metal colored NM maybe with a little slaaneshi influence or the bright pink/black/gold of the Emperor's Children? I'm not sure if it was clash too much or provide a nice contrast to the wall of grey/silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 You could also paint them up in IW colours but glaze parts of the metal plates in Slaaneshi shades. Blue, Pink, bright Green etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Nihm Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Not at the top of my head sorry. You can run a search for "Viva Metallica" in the PC&A for examples of heavily washed metallics. It's not the same as glazed metallics obviously but I just remembered that as an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
