henrywalker Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I've already got a nice big squad of blight kings built and painted to be plague ogryn for my army. Now though I have these maggoth lords staring at me in the store and i feel that surely there is something i could use them for. I'm looking for ideas as to how I can play them. I have a Nurgle army of chaos marines and servants of decay. There are various rule sets for big grubbily things which the maggoth could be without the rider (giant spawn, spiked beast of chaos, jibberjaw etc) thing is the rider is awesome and i don't really want to leave him behind. The maggoth could also be a daemon prince or great unclean one but that has the same problem with the rider. Perhaps I could come up with my own rule set to use in friendly games that would involve them both but that does seem a bit far. anyone got any great ideas?

Lord Asvaldir Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Use the rider for a separate purpose, maybe a lord or sorcerer on a bike. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298338-maggoth-lords/#findComment-3841417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xin Ceithan Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Could always use the Rider/beast package as a mounted lord while declaring it as a DP rulewise, I guess Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298338-maggoth-lords/#findComment-3841610 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atia Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I don't see any problems with the usage of Fantasy Chaos models in 40k. Back in 2nd Edition, we had an Daemonworld-Armylist with Chaoswarriors and Beastman/Minotaurs, and i'll write my own rules for Valkia (the Bloodqueen of Khorne, hallo!), the Maggoth Lords and the Glottkin =). At least you can use the Maggoth Lords as spined chaos beasts and Glottkin as GUO, Valkia as Daemon Herald/Princess.

Ammonius Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Maggoth+Defiler = Plague Hulk? I wonder if the sizes are such that part sof these models could be used for Nurglish Helbrutes? Especially a half-bestial Helbrute with a rider to be the leader of a Helpack. OR! Anyone remember the Realm Of Chaos: Slaves to Darkness chaos attribute "Manikin"?

Fortis Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 How 'bout a Nurgle lord on palaquin? Just that the palanquin is a single large bag of puss rather than multiple small bags of puss. Or are the Maggoth lord models too big for that? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298338-maggoth-lords/#findComment-3841820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Asvaldir Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Way to big, a palaquin is supposed to be on maybe a 60mm round base I think (it's a square 50mm in fantasy). This guy's base is 150mm by 100mm (maybe even 150x150). Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298338-maggoth-lords/#findComment-3841863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
