The Crimson Cartel Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hello Chaos Brethren, a quick question, Which chaos box has the best/most selection of bits that would be appropriate for a pre heresy Night Lords force? I'll be converting one of my older Marine armies so, i've already got the models, now I just need to skull them up a bit. Also, don't think i'll be buying the GW Night Lords upgrade Bits (don't care for the older, smaller scale.) Anyone have a suggestion for a good NL shoulder pad proxy? Thanks for any and all help! -CC Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232015-chaos-bits-inquiry/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Well I'd say unless you can paint the winged skull insignia onto bare shoulderpads, I'd say you pretty much have to go with the GW ones :). As for helmets, I'd say you can use pretty much anything.

Excessus Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I've seen people use bits from the fantasy vampire sets for decorations... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232015-chaos-bits-inquiry/#findComment-2791848 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 make your own. all you have to do is make one then make a mould. theres plenty of tutorials for doing it. even if you can get your hands on a single one of their pads and make a mould and trim it and use it with a regular pad and you should be able to make a normal sized verion...

Brother Garrod Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 can cost a arm and a leg , but the best source for pre-heresy equipment is http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-4000...?filter_reset=1 that should give you all of the pre-heresy weaponry and the like short of that , you can always pick up the individual componants from the forgeworld armour sets from ebay or dedicated bits sites , but that could cost more in the long run Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232015-chaos-bits-inquiry/#findComment-2792165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradigm Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Pretty much any pre-heresy bits will work with night lords. They had the same options as the other legions. I'd recommend lots of skulls, and chains for your trophies, and I'd stick with the GW shoulderpads, they are expensive because you get the near useless heads though. Besides the heads the scale isn't bad at all. Slightly smaller, but not noticeably so. Again the heads are pretty atrocious. You get lots of wings for conversion work though. Whatever you decide you want to do with them, I hope you post photos!
