@Augustus: you want to do what into the land speeders? :o

 

@ SlaveToDarkness: consider removing this before the Chaos mods arrive - a bit too much for the family friendly forum we run here... ;)

Semper, I have two metal Dark Angel Land Speeders which I'd like to defecate into Chaos vehicles and I'd like to fow them as something from the Chaos Codex. I know a heldrake is WAY too involved. They are armed with assault cannon and heavy bolter (the SM codex gives land speeders with that load-out as costing 80 points). Is it ok for me to vow these (in a hypothetical second, third or fourth vow) as one vanilla Chaos predator with a twin bolter upgrade - 80 points?

 

That seems a bit much even for Chaos, though Nurgle might be about it.

 

LOL

Count as blight drones?  Seem like a decent option.

He counts-as a Chaos Terminator with an Icon of Excess, and my most recent progress in the ETL.

More progress to report tomorrow night...

@ Augustus: Plague Drones would be ideal... Do you have another one lying around? (as you need three minimum).

Dudes, that is an EXCELLENT IDEA! I LOVE IT!! I was going to make them into Fallen Angel land speeders just for :cusss and giggles, but if I field them as counts-as plague drones, I can actually field plague drones rules-wise, without sacrificing the Night Lords fluff of 'no corruption allowed'. biggrin.png laugh.png thumbsup.gif

Semper: Plague drones come in battle formations of 3-5 called 'Drone infestation' as well as in single models (it's in the Chaos section of the Imperial Armour Apocalypse book and they are 40k approved). I am doing this, but this does raise the following question: Land Speeders are tops 80 points and plague drones 150. This somewhat violates the ETL rule of 'no free points'. Now, these models *are* metal and I *am* going to deface (no nurgle defacation msn-wink.gif ) the living crap out of them to make them proper 40k Night Lords chaos vehicles, so there is a lot of work involved. But the question remains: how many points can I count them as? thumbsup.gif

Whatever the answer: thanks guys for this awesome idea!

I'll have to wait for Semper's reply. But whatever it is, I'm Nightlordifying those Land Speeders for sure! thumbsup.gif

I just finished the terminators in my 1st vow. More pics here in my showcase log.

These look great. Love the color, the base, the total package. Looking forward to seeing these speeder/drones you are working on.

@ Augustus: A fantastic squad of Termies there! The plasma glow is really something! thumbsup.gif

Now please note that Plague Drones are different to Blight Drones. The former cost 42pts a piece but you need 3 minimum while the Blight Drones are standalone units at 150pts a piece (if I recall)...

I think you are much closer to Plague Drones than Blight Drones. The question is, can you find a third? Otherwise we need to find another way around it...

My brush just gave up the ghost. Bloody typical, I was on course to finish these guys tonight. Damn GW and their one man store policy, they're shut today so I can't just nip in to town and grab a new one.
