Banelord Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 With the release of the new chaos models I’ve been thinking of going back to my roots as a chaos player. Been a fan of Chaos since 2nd edition but I haven’t painted anything in years. I’ve been toying with ideal of a gangster, Al Capone, The Kray Twins or even Jabba the Hut style Chaos organised war band. This is what I got so far, any input would be great :cuss Originally an Alpha Legion cell/splinter group. Allie themselves/taken over/ pledge allegiance to a “Fallen” Malice worshipping sorcerer, hell bent on spreading anarchy through the universe. More interested in anarchy through “Organized Crime” rather than spreading Chaos cults. They deal in things like Arms Trafficking, Extortion, Coercion, Political Corruption, Slave Trading ECT... They work though agents in control of various gangs across several sectors. This keeps them under the radar of the Inquisition, but not the Adeptus Arbites, and gives them access to huge amounts of resources through the Black Market. A few follow Malice but the majority don’t worship anything but are very loyal to each other and very greedy, only caring about making a profit and will trade anything with anyone and even been known to hire themselves out as mercenaries. Very protective of their underground “Organization” will use brute force to protect it as a whole or even an individual member. Traitors and Enemies to the group end up “disappearing” usually sacrificed to the god Malice. Only a small but well equipped group of marines from various Legions/chapters, maybe 20 to 30, but have been known to use hired assassins and mercenaries not only for individual jobs but to enable them to field a very large battle-force when needed. They could be anything from another chaos war band to an Ork mob, making their force very unpredictable. They have a Strike Cruiser which is kept hidden in the warp by the Sorcerer.

Jacobius Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Just two questions: Who is Brian and why are we storming him? B) Seriously though, sounds interesting. Lots of potential for conversion as, presumably, they would snag the best bits of kit for themselves? Interested to see a chaos space marine with a shoota or a shuriken cannon. Some of the new chaos stuff looks pretty sweet :cuss -J- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/261577-index-traitoris/#findComment-3183112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messor Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Organized crime, huh? Now that sounds like a fun direction. Will there be troops with tommy guns? That reminds me there's a chosen model in the Dark Vengeance set with a drum magazine bolter. I love that model. :D Its cool to see a more 'specialized' chaos group as opposed to an everyday warband. Looking forward to the IT. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/261577-index-traitoris/#findComment-3183320 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferox Heartcleaver Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 A Chaotic organized crime ring? That is an excellent pitch. I look forward to the whole thing.

blackoption Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I like the idea. Solely AL splinter or would you envision them as a more criminal then chaos red corsair group? (recruit from anyone who proves worthy...) It also seems that Cultists might be your primary troop type for this group... which could be very interestingly done.

(recruit from anyone who proves worthy...) It also seems that Cultists might be your primary troop type for this group... which could be very interestingly done. I see them more as an AL splinter turned criminal group. They use AL tactics to maintain and control a vest underground criminal network but they are more interested in making money, rather than following chaos or the rest of the legion. They would be made up of other like minded marines from different groups and those gangsters who have proven loyalty, but the vast majority of the organization would not even know who they are working for. Once I get some free time, work and family getting in the way :D , I’ll write some more up.
