FelipeFlops Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 So I would like to make a squad of World Eaters Berserkers using the new CSM kit. I'm looking to have the squad each equipped with a Chainsword and Chainaxe. So obviously the new CSM kit comes with a few Chainswords but no Chainaxes, where is the best place to get them? I know there are a couple of Forgeworld options for Chainaxes and WE heads, but are there any better 3rd party options out there? What are your best recommendations for the pieces I'd need to achieve this? Thanks!

Gederas Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Well, there's always Shapeways/PopGoesTheMonkey for bits. But I do recommend the Forge World ones for one reason: The Legion Phobos Chainaxe Set comes with right-handed Chainaxes, and the Chaos Marines kit are all left-handed chainswords. Which makes converting them to Berzerkers very easy.

FelipeFlops Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 Do you think these heads will work ok on the new CSM kit? https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-GB/World-Eaters-Legion-MKII-Upgrade-Set-Veteran-Heads Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359678-best-way-to-build-world-eaters-berserkers/#findComment-5420227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I can't imagine the new CSM kit has anything revolutionary in terms of how the head goes in.

Gederas Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Yeah, those will work. As long as the faceplate isn't longer than a Mark IV one, you'll have no issue putting the heads on the new Chaos Marine.

FelipeFlops Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 I can't imagine the new CSM kit has anything revolutionary in terms of how the head goes in. It was more whether they were the right size for the larger CSM, since its a head kit for 30k i used blood warriors for both axes and heads. the combo looks marvelous Yeah I think this might be the way I'm leaning. Looks like I could pick up some additional chainswords elsewhere, as it looks like the new CSM kit on has 7? .

Regarding the heads: Aside from the Aspiring Champion, all of these Night Lords are using the Terror Squad helmets from Forge World: The heads are perfectly fine, size-wise. Regarding the second: Raptors are your best bet. If you get three boxes and build them as Warp Talons, that's 15 chainswords. You can also probably find the Khorne Berzerker chainswords on bitz sites if you look for them, Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359678-best-way-to-build-world-eaters-berserkers/#findComment-5420624 Share on other sites More sharing options...
