J!MM!L!C!OUS Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Title says it all guys.I've heard that generally speaking, Chosen marines are not that great but I bought DV and what to know if the DV chosen marines make a good unit? If they are good, how do you use them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDevourer Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Test models for my Colour Scheme :P Don't exactly call the set up in DV playable ^^ I may use the bolter Chosen as standard marines though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 The PF one joined my Black Legion chosen, the squad leader is my Dark Apostle. Painted the rest as the Purge for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verythrax Draconis Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Dunno yet, I'll paint them as my main idea, but I'm considering converting then as Noise Marines - if I can come up with a good thing to count as the sonic weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplainmikey Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 The bolter marine will join my ranged squad whilst the rest will be aspiring champions for my various planned squads. I can't ever really see myself having a squad of Chosen and especially not a squad with so diverse a set of weapons. They are lovely models but I only see them usable as champions. Mike.

Dallas Drake Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Not a viable unit at all IMO. I did the following; Two guys with Bolters are my two standard Aspiring Champs. Guy with power axe is Khorne Aspiring Champ. Guy with Lighning claws is Lord on Juggy with claws removed for bp & daemon weapon. Power fist guy has lost his fist and has Huron's claw & axe (I posted a pic of him in the counts as Huron thread). Guy with maul is my Dark Apostle if I ever lose my mind & field one.

Urauloth Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I'm painting a couple as display models, and I'll probably use the axe and power fist chosen as champions at some point. Kinda tempted to stick a jump pack on the claw dude for a raptor/warp talon champion, but again, he'd probably just be a display piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attomsk Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I just converted one into a bike champion. I'll try to post a pic tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I've converted mine into a chosen plasma squad, and the Champion into a Dark apostle. I'll get some pics up once they are finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J!MM!L!C!OUS Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Cool, love to see some pics of those conversions guys :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggnuggath Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I converted mine into Thousand Sons rubrics. There are some pictures in the work in progress section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J!MM!L!C!OUS Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Lol so basically I think everyone is just saying that they look nice, but suck in game terms? Well that blows :sick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggnuggath Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Doesn't help that they are non-scoring unless you run Abby. Apart from hidden PW they don't really bring much that havocs with special weapons cant for less points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fibonacci Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 The chozen are my new unit champions. I added claws to the power fist dude. The TLC guy had one arm replaced with a bolt pistol, his removed claw replaced the power sword of an older champ. This gave me three models with bolt pistol and lightning claw who will lead my assault and general prupose troops. The two with sheathed sword guys are the champs for my shooty-only squads. The axe guy looks cool but so far is sitting on the shelf with no plans for actual use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 My DV chosen? Still in my box. Probably eventually cut them up for bitz somewhere down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallas Drake Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 My Huron conversion Jim (at the bottom of the thread), based & ready to highlight. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=263913 I will put pics of the others up when I get around to painting them. Got 35 Cultists sitting here that aren't going to paint themselves anytime soon <_< Dallas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attomsk Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Here is the biker champion I made from the lightning claw chosen. Took a dremel, green stuff and a lot of patience: http://i.imgur.com/K61i4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Lord Shamrockius Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Aspiring champions... Or alternates with different load outs where I already had one. The Bolter guys are being added to my havoc ranks. The load out for them is just way too varied for my OCD mind to deal with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
