Grand Master Aldric Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Hello, first off this my first time posting in the chaos area (me being a pure blooded loyalist. ) and i was going to make a small chaos team.(probably never a whole army but more as the extra bits rolled my way.) from the extra mark 7 legs and chaos bits that I can not use for my army. any way I can't decide what legions to do, I have 6 sets of the legs and have decided on 3 of the legions: alpha legion thousand sons and night lords but I can't decide on the other 3. The ones I was thinking were: World Eater, Black Legionary, fallen Dark Angel, Death Guard, (Without Nurgle mutation.) Emperors Children, and perhaps a unknown traitor who just were personal colors. Now to everyone who will vote: you will each get 3 votes and after a total of 16 people voting I will announce the decision. Update: Found an extra pair of mk7 legs so I have done the mystery space marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the jeske Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 pure black is hard to get rigth and if you want to mini army , then you probably care for looks . Probably EC , they don't have a set way of being painted or WE if you like to pain a lot of red[you kind of a do play BAs] there are also some nice contrast things you can do with WE , their old armor was white and they still wear parts of those white +gory , if done right , can look very nice.

Forté Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 My first vote would go to Emperor's Children (obviously) but do have fun painting them and don't limit yourself to the GW pink and black scheme. Otherwise, what do you really fancy building and painting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, what do you really fancy building and painting? Actually if I was going to do a EC I would most likely go with the DoW colour scheme: Black armour with pink detail and shoulder inserts.

Hit the Divine Flayers image in my signature. Fairly sure I mention it in my WIP thread. But basically. Slaanesh Marines are likely to be so individualistic that every marine would look different. Especially when it comes to the cult troops and HQs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rain Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Alpha Legion. Most likely to be using newer mark armor, cool color scheme, and--they're the Alpha Legion. Special forces space ninja M. Night Shymalan badasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clone Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I say go black legion. You can do anything you want with the Black Legion and its still fluffy. For instance I love the Death Guard and Slaanesh so now I have a BL warband that is made up the 2 factions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Discord Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Gotta' agree with Black Legion due to the freedom of expression you're given with them, but I'm always a bit bias towards the Legion. I picked them for my army many years ago when their fiction and background was still thin, but grew more-and-more happy with the choice as the years past. As it has been said, you can choose to more freely mix-and-match with the Legion and use Black as a secondary colour that ties everything together. Start with a pure Black Legion center formation and add other units aligned to other factions as units to surround the center (as I have done/am doing) or choose a hodge-podge of factions that appeal to you if you want even more freedom.

Artein Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'll second.... third.... whatever.... Black Legion. The most elegant colour scheme + freedom of choice. My warband has exSons of Horus, exEmperor's Child, exWorld Eater, Fallen Angel (Sorcerer), exNight Lord (Dark Apostle), exWord Bearer (Warpsmith), Slaanesh Daemons, Renegades from different chapters and some cultists/heretics/traitors.... I also want to add Nurgle Sister of Battle but have no idea how to convert her yet. Oh, and FW Skin Wolves used as.... Wulfen fallen to Khorne count as Spawn? Nevermind. I can do pretty much anything and still be fluffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Aldric Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 I just hope that everybody gets that I am doing a wardand in which all the marine will were their old colours and have a symbol to denote them as part of this warband.

Aqui Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I just hope that everybody gets that I am doing a wardand in which all the marine will were their old colours and have a symbol to denote them as part of this warband.Then to me, like your Blood Hounds, your Warband could be a DIY one You could have them both as antagonists. The warband could have elements of any/all of the aforementioned factions or similar and you wouldn't have to worry too much about canon conflicts.

Dark_Apostle_XVII Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Alpha Legion are awesome! I personally love the Word Bearers too. They are my army of choice so I guess I am biased but they do look so cool with painted, white script all over their crimson armour. Finally, I would say Emperors Children - the bright colours will make a nice contrast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aasfresser Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I just hope that everybody gets that I am doing a wardand in which all the marine will were their old colours and have a symbol to denote them as part of this warband. If this is what you want, why not Red Corsairs? In old publications you could always see CSM with their old colors mixed with crossed out or defiled loyalist symbols on their armor.

Emperors Immortals Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Iron warriors are fun to paint, hard to do if you stay away from using a pot of boltgun metal too. I don't play IW, i play BL, WE and EC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xin Ceithan Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I am biased, so I am voting for Thousand Sons and Alpha Legion. For my third vote -and considering you wanting to use some loyalist left overs- have you considered Red Corsairs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
