Emperor's Furor Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I've gone through all my boxes and found a load of stuff I've not used that I got way back when I was thinking of doing a project. No with the new Khorne codex on the horizon I was wondering whether if I stuck it all together it could be useful. I'm not really a chaos player last time I played them was in the 3rd edition I think. Do you think this will make a useful army? 60 Cultists 3 lots of the marines from Dark Vengeance 10 normal chaos marines (Not constructed yet) 3 bikers (Not constructed yet) 1 rhino (Not constructed yet) maybe 2 (if stripped) 2 Dark Vengeance Hellbrute (3 if I can find the other) A Maulerfiend or Forgefiend (Not constructed yet) 10 Blood Letters 1 Herald of KHorne 1 Bloodthirster Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304856-does-this-have-the-makings-of-a-useful-khorne-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Definitely a good start - wait until the new Codex comes out to see what gaps you'll want to fill. Obvious lack of heavier support, which is also easily remedied!

Emperor's Furor Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 I can add 5 Terminators to that number to. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304856-does-this-have-the-makings-of-a-useful-khorne-army/#findComment-3981821 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor's Furor Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 I was wondering which do you think is the better out of the forgefiend and maulerfiend. As you mentioned I lack some heavy support but I'm not so sure the forgefiend is the best way to go around correcting that.

Khornestar Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Maulerfiend is either going to wreck some face or draw a ton of fire and get blown up on turn 1. Forgefiend is decent behind an ADL. Especially buffed with Prescience. 8 S8 shots can definitely glance something to death in a single round of shooting.

Emperor's Furor Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 How do you get 8 shots? or is that what prescience does? I'm going for a Khorne force so not expecting to use psykers. Or are you on about the Hades cannons? cause they seem to be strength 7 in my codex.

Cap'm Heckus Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 It was 2 guns that get 4 shots each. It's been about 25 years since my last math class , but I think that still comes out to 8. And it is Str 8 ap 4. Perhaps you are looking at the reaper autocannon entry.

the jeske Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Are you planing to use the new book. Because if yes, you need a second BT, at least 2 unit of bloodletters. If you plan to use the chaos book. You need 2 more maulerfiends, 9 more biker models. If you plan to go single CAD. If you plan to do multi cad and/or use FW, then you also need 2 wyverns Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/304856-does-this-have-the-makings-of-a-useful-khorne-army/#findComment-3982691 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I must of been looking at the wrong entry >.< my bad. I'm planning on using the new Khorne Daemonkin book. Should I equip the bikers with anything like meltaguns etc or keep them simple, I'm not sure if I'm gonna to expand on what I have atm until it's really necessary, I want to make at least a 1k list with what I have.
