Mard Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Hi AllI've recently come into possession of a bunch of classic old school plague marines. (90's and early 2000's)And I have zero interest in modern 40k, but I have a love of 30k.Do you feel the would be much push back on doing a small 1000pt ZM Death Gurad force based around the siege of terra using these minis?I know they're a lot more corrupted then the standard marine, but i feel like it would eb a fun project.

Brother Dallo Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I’d play against it. Dallo Pacific81 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373447-oldhammer-plaguemarines-for-30k/#findComment-5800435 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I think it'd be fine to do them as a late heresy force. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373447-oldhammer-plaguemarines-for-30k/#findComment-5800443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I think it'd work for late heresy pretty well, so SoT era would be totally fine. I do wonder if we're going to end up exploring more into the latter parts of the Heresy when they relaunch it, which could make doing that more interesting.

MegaVolt87 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Just watch as the late HH period in the re-launched 30k with more chaos stuff becomes the CSM dex we wish we had. tinpact 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373447-oldhammer-plaguemarines-for-30k/#findComment-5800466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mard Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 Cheers all.Totally planned for a SoT themed force, this is honestly just an excuse for a good hobby project now these have all dropped in my lap.Now to come up with a nice little 1000pts force Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373447-oldhammer-plaguemarines-for-30k/#findComment-5800470 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Going by the old Battle for Terra story the Death Guard were all dribbly and well on the path of Nurgle by then, so yeah that would be 100% fluffy. Then come to the UK so I can play against it. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/373447-oldhammer-plaguemarines-for-30k/#findComment-5800483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Closet Skeleton Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 The 'clean' HH look is based around Isvaan anyway and not really representative of the conflict at all. Everyone looks pretty chaos in old depictions of the Siege of Terror and the Death Guard were cut out of most of pre-Terra action anyway.

Chaeron Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I’ve used them for Heresy gaming in past when needing more Tactical Marines. They’re some of my favourite models and I think they fit well with a theme that recognises where it’s all going... I’ll look forward to seeing what you do!

infyrana Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Agree with others, some great minis and will be interested to see what you do with them. I reckon they would make for a 'rad' Destroyer squad!

Brother Sutek Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I converted my 2nd edition and slightly later Death Guard chaos army to 30k mostly as the veterans. Haven't had any problems yet esp as they are painted.
