Verythrax Draconis Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Besides de no-brainer Cadians and Catachans boxes and buying multiple DV sets, what else you guys suggest in terms of cheap/lots of infantry minis to be used as cultists? I found those: WF Zombies (for plague zombies) WF Shock Troops (those seems nicier than cadians, to add chaos symbols and such) Do you guys have other ideas, plastic, or cheap metal? But carrying around 40 minis units made of metal sucks... :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn. Palladorus Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Once upon a time I was planning out a whole traitor guard army. Here's some of my infantry ideas that are mostly or entirely plastic/resin: Beastmen with Catachan arms. A kitbash of High Elf Spearmen legs, hooded Wood Elf heads, and Cadian torsos and arms with a little extra armor plate GS'd on the arms. A kitbash of Catachan legs, SM/CSM torsos, Cadian arms, and Elysian heads with respirators. Night Goblins with the faces replaced with skulls painted metallic colors and auto/laspistols added. Or you could wait on that next land raider and get a set of these instead... :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198012 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I heard the second wave will have plastic cultists in it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verythrax Draconis Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 I heard the second wave will have plastic cultists in it. I really hope they are multipart, instead of the ~16 different models from the DV box.

Vilicate Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I made some traitor guard with Cadian lasguns and Fantasy Flagellant bodies. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperors Immortals Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Theres an entire line of Vrakks renegades from FW that look great or the beastman abhuman tutorial in the excellant Legión Imprint 2. Fantasy beastmen with cadian bodies and kitbashed detail is what ill do. Of course the zombie kits will be needed for the eventual campaign :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198144 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payce Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I made some traitor guard with Cadian lasguns and Fantasy Flagellant bodies. Plastic Flagellants are amazing for this. All sorts of random Lasguns and Shotguns can be converted into Autoguns with the addition of Bolter clips, and the bit with three small ammo pouches on the Tactical Marine sprue can easily be cut into three separate pouches, emulating the ones that most of the Dark Vengeance-Cultists have here, there and everywhere. I made my first Flagellultist last night, and I'll definitely get some more Flaggelultists with Catachan bits all over the place to thin out me DV ones. http://i.imgur.com/0t2cx.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urauloth Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I made some traitor guard with Cadian lasguns and Fantasy Flagellant bodies. Do you have any pics? I've been considering doing this.

Rik Riorik Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I heard the second wave will have plastic cultists in it. I'm not holding my breath for a second wave. At least not for a long while because if they were already done I find it strange that the models aren't already show cased in the Codex. But maybe I've got my negative hat on.

Deadman Wade Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 For zombies I will use this: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod1050054 looks great - 20 models in one box. For regular cultists - bitz from these guys http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod460010a and some house etcher/redemtionists from necromunda.

notsoevil Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 God, I can't see using GW zombies -- they have melon heads and oven-mitt hands. Between DV box, flagellant bitz, some IG bitz and some crypt ghouls here and there, I'm going to have fun building Nurgle IG and Zombie Cultists.

grimsanity Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Been using the wf shock troops for traitor guard very nice models. Unfortunately I need to break there guns off to add the correct autogun CC combinations but no biggie.

DarkMark Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Warpath Corporation Rangers or Veterans might be worth a look. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pietia Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I went with two options -Warlord German Infantry+Max Mini Fallen Legionnaire heads and M-16s for weapons http://urbanzone.ehost.pl/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/SDC11898.jpg -Beastmen with guns replacing one of the hand weapons http://urbanzone.ehost.pl/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/SDC11895.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262525-plastic-infantry-for-cultists/#findComment-3198482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verythrax Draconis Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 I don't think any other Chaos wave will come before the 3Q/2013, if the consider the rumors on the next releases and the leaked release list for the second half of 2013.
