  1. @Honk

    Thanks for the input! The issue of appropriate base size does make sense though. Luckily I feel like if I decide to go this route I’ll want scenic bases anyways because It would be more of a labor of love scenario with some substantial conversions being made.

    I Really hope that’s not the case for legion of azgorh though - such a cool range with confirmed bits of canon fluff. I’m hoping that somewhere (likely a ways) down the line they do them in plastics in the same spirit as the fw models. I like the idea of a chaos army that actually shoots something other than pink/blue fireballs out of mouths/fingers XD

  2. Hi guys so I’m not exactly new to tga but I generally post on the khorne topic. With that said I do occasionally lurk on death and destruction for ideas for a different army that may or may not inspire me! Recently, I was listening to a priority roll episode where Dan and Chris welfare made a FEC with the idea that Dan would use 3rd party Bret models to represent the units. I thought it sounded like a cool idea, but I also love concept of deathrattle kingdoms where a fully sentient and free-thinking wight king would rule over a kingdom of skeleton subjects with his court, and was wondering if you could do the same thing with the deathrattle range instead.

    So TLDR is that I was wondering whether it would be acceptable to run a proxied FEC army along the lines of a deathrattle kingdom? I was thinking skeles as ghouls, black knights as horrors, WK as arch-regent, and maybe some converted black knights or dread blade harrows with skele riders as flayers off the top of my head? Let me know what you guys think!

    Also, I understand that it’s everyone’s hobby and we’re free to play models how we want, but more what I was wondering is if you all think this would be confusing to play against seeing as they’re all models with their own legal rules?

    thanks guys!

  3. @IHaveNoPaintAndIMustMemepersonally I like them but I haven’t heard great things. Like @Salyx said, They don’t really have a ton of output and there are other more defensive options like chaos warriors. It’s funny though, I had a similar thought about a block of 15 in a slaughterborn battalion - I agree that skullcrushers do work as an anvil, but I think if you whip and CA those blood warriors they can fly across

  4. @ZamikYeah you’re right about that - the wound isn’t as big of a difference to me because painbringers can reroll saves but the attack difference is pretty huge - also to your point I would think that khorne has more ways to buff attacks into the stratosphere lol (ie ways to get up to 7 attacks per model on skullreapers). Mostly just messing around but like you said I really would like a way to make them battle line!

  5. Hey guys - newer to this specific forum, but I found myself wondering earlier today if it would be possible to achieve an almost black glow effect on a sword, (similar to the daemon prince’s sword in the attached picture) and if so, how would you go about it? More of a curiousity than anything, but I would love to hear what you all think!A_mighty_Daemon_Prince-_2016-11-27_02-29

     

  6. @Render wow those look great! The bullgor conversion is especially promising since they come 3 to a box! My only real concern was opening up the pose/making it more dynamic but youve done a great job of that! Could be a really cool modeling project! I might even just need 1 box of those and the skull kit

  7. Yeah it kinda grinds my gears that they haven’t released a separate kit. I’d even take a monopose one of it meant I could get it separate without having to keep checking eBay haha. I had seen @Praecautus’s idea of using spawn but I’m not totally sure about the size comparison. I had thought of using some ogors as a base though

  8. Hey guys - so I have been thinking about khorgoraths and how to best emphasize their strengths. Clearly skullfiend tribe is the ideal allegiance to pick but what would you all choose? MSU or blocks of a couple? Skulltake or on their own? Also on a more practical money-centered concern are there any serviceable conversions/proxies? I love the discussions on this topic and would be happy to see what you all think!
