the emperor is scottish Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Just a spark of curiosity today wondering what my fellow brothers and sister in chaos favourite machine of death and destruction is. I was mainly thinking of walkers but if you have a soft spot for a land raider or predator then by all means let us know but be sure to say why. I have to say I have a huge soft spot for the decimator. Never used one in a game but aesthetically I think it looks amazing and really bad ass. So what about you? Defiler? Brass scorpion? Or just a good old dred? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJL Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 dreadnoughts! they are iconic and give me a plasma cannon as well! that and my hellblade, it looks great!..... never really kills anything though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rik Riorik Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Land Raiders. Because they are the most heavily armoured behemoths in normal 40k. And because they're quite the big 'uns too n sheer size. But otherwise I quite like the aesthetic of the Soul Grinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lay Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 The humble Dreadnought for me. I like that it adds the horror of feeling buried alive to the basic concept of the Dread. It's also nice that their fellow brothers in arms are responsible for their condition and not the Chaos Gods. How many other CSM units can claim that? Another reason are the FW models. A great range of designs for a single unit. Most look like walking symbols of their legions. Oh, and the upcoming Helldrake looks sweet too.

Smurfalypse Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I have to admit that I rarely use anything other than a rhino or two since about fourth ed. From time to time I will use a Defiler but that is about the extent into my love of vehicles...So I will go with the Defiler :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azekai Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I own a pair of defilers, and I love them dearly. Four S10 close combat weapons, and a battlecannon? Possession and 4 hull points? Yes please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odsox Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 It's got to be the Chaos Dreadnought for me. I loved the fluff behind them, and the amazing conversions I've seen her on Bolter have cemented them in my mind as the superior models. Which is kind of silly, seeing as the majority of them use loyalist foundations... But the thing that really made me treat them as my favourite was the addition of a Chaos Dreadnought to Dawn of War 2. Seeing it rampage into battle and hearing it roar, "DIE! AS I SHOULD HAVE DIED!" or, "It is dead! AND I STILL LIVE! AHAHAHAHAH!!" is just, effing, GLORIOUS. Od. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Although I've never had one before, the Brass Scorpion from FW is definitely my favorite. It is amazing and I've always wanted one. This might change though depending on the Helldrake, I need to see the model in person to decide though.

Beachymike123 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 hands up for the humble predator. love its history and its multi-weapon load, its a cheap versatile tool of war that is capable of spewing out death to the followers of the false emperor.

Pavement Artist Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Defilers. Land raiders and dreadnoughts are cool and all, but every marine gets those. We get to rock a death crab, predators can jog on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadman Wade Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Land Raiders - nothing is more terrifying than big metal box lumbering forward, shrugging off all incoming fire (and with a bunch of psychotic killers inside). Also, good old predator - especially, after DoW2 quotes like "this planet shall burn, like a thousand others we have seen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the emperor is scottish Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 The land raider is a good choice. An intimidating slab of death. I love the art work in the 3rd edition codex...or was it the city of death rule book? Anyway it's of a chaos landraider accompanied by 3 csm gunning down fleeing guardsmen. I'm still having to go for the decimator. I'd love to one day have two of these in a force. I know a lot of folk have love for the dual butcher cannon. I'm looking forward to seeing the maul fiend and Forge fiend fluff. Although I really truly dislike the models if the fluff and rules are a good new edition then there's always the work bench.

Sception Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I'd say the defiler, though it definitely benefits from some conversion work... but the starter box dreadnought is really a thing of beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papewaio Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 The Planet Killer. Just... really, do I need to explain? The model is glorious. In-game it is a beast. And the name. How can you not love that name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killax Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Non-apocalypse I would say it's the Dread altough the Defiler is a very close 2nd. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
