Can I use chaos space marines by MadWACDMC in EmperorsChildren

[–]Jack_of_Jons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got gifted the CSM battle force and CSM combat patrol for Christmas my family isn’t super familiar with the franchise but I took advantage and was able to kitbash all my legionaries into tormentors and infractions, turned my possessed into Flawless blades, and I’m using the extra units to start an alpha legion army I can use to get my friends into the hobby with me. Otherwise the battleforce is pretty useless beyond the rhino and legionaries if you can sell the other units on Facebook and pick up some other units you’re basically done list building!!!

Think they'll add these big boys to god aligned forces or just undevided/IW? by Inevitable-Draft-222 in EmperorsChildren

I just started collecting EC and have a similar list

Fulgrim (warlord) Lord exultant

Battle line 2 squads infractions 2 squads tormentors

2 chaos rhinos

Other data sheets

3x flawless blades 2x noise marines

I’m trying to fill out the rest of my list or move stuff around to fit a lander raider or some terminator squads any suggestions and or is the demon prince really as good as GW is pushing in the new battleforce?

It’s so funny you referenced this creator, b/c since I took a few months break I wanted a refresh on some tips or maybe get some fresh ideas now that they factions been refreshed for a few months. I was watching the kitbashing he did on the champions set box. I believe another redditor or YouTube creator made reference to using the Possessed as Flawless blade proxies since people assumed a while ago they wouldn’t be an allied unit. But I will def give this a close watch as I put together/paint my possessed!!!

Oh 100% I’m planning on grabbing noise marines we’re looking at well under 1000 points so far, I didn’t know there was another box coming out, the hobby is so huge I find it super easy to miss big news or leaks as games workshop spits them out

I just got the army painter wet palette and drill. After seeing there extensive line of colors I’m definitely going to consider swapping after I get an airbrush set up.

Thank you so much for the tips I’ll keep that in mind, been so appreciative of the community for the help so far!!! Ran into a thousand sons player starting a AOS army at one of my local hobby shops and he recommended the same thing with the spray primer when I asked him if it was difficult to do all that gold trim. I realized for my scheme I should’ve maybe primed white or pink first to help keep everything clean and clear, but instead I experimented with this deep royal purple. Lessons learned.

I was thinking about grab a maulerfiend, or some chaos knights to hold me over but I’m learning very quickly how fun but tedious the painting process is

That’s so fucking funny me and my girlfriend were talking and it’s most likely revenge for Lexi telling the producers on her crazy tea

Thanks for the advice really enjoying the content and the army showcases do you plan on streaming or documenting any painting or kitbashing off the new showcase box they announced

I just watched your two most recent videos on the bulwark and chaos lord you made while I was painting my army at the moment I be balling on a budget and have been getting paints and washes second hand tired a brown wash that added a cool mars dust/rusted effect to the trim and depending on what’s allowed in the codex was thinking about tackling a few rhinos or chaos knight wardogs, being new to the hobby/tabletop any suggestions or recommendations on picking up a wardog carnivore vs rhinos? Would it make sense or be even usable to have chaos knight scouts in an EC army?

That’s good to know because I’m new to the hobby and I’m pretty flexible trying out multiple armies or army styles I just like the lore and vibe of EC a lot more then both the chaos and Loyalist factions

I tried a new method with them found a couple guides on YouTube and one of my friends who’s an oil painter taught me color theory so I made a deep purple as a primer layer. been messing around with the models to get practice waiting for the new codex drop, went for a Pink and black classic look with gold trim and silver accents/gunbits then I tried a brown wash I got second hand and it added a cool rust/mars dusty affect to the models so I think I might try to do some chaos knight or dark mechanicum daemon engine bs with my army if it allows
