Warsmith Mortis Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 i've not played 40K for well over 2 years not (well near enough) i liked chaos the best. iron warriors were my main army. i've been thinking of coming back. so here are my questions: -is chaos still a viable choice? -what of the legion rules? i heard that i couldn't use my bassilisk. -any exciting stuff coming up?

the jeske Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 -yes -gone and not no longer playable -kind of a depends . if you want w40k csm stuff there is nothing coming our way in the near and not so near future . If you mean chaos generally the we have a demon dex coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Asmodius Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 In my opinion Chaos is still definately a viable choice though it isnt the same as it once was Legion rules have been thrown out the window (check the other thread about the Legion codex that may or may not come out) so no you cant use your basilisk, no servo arms, no siege specialists, no 4th heavy, no restricitons Codex: Demons is coming in may i believe (again check the other thread) and 5th ed. is on the way (once again check the thread in rumors) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Mortis Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 thank you Legion rules have been thrown out the window (check the other thread about the Legion codex that may or may not come out) so no you cant use your basilisk, no servo arms, no siege specialists, no 4th heavy, no restricitons *insert swear word here* sake i hope there will be some rules (eventually). at least iron warriors still have a cool colour scheme.

Mr Fulgrim Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 you could always play apocalypse, huge games of 3000 + points battles were you can field anything you like from whatever codex you like! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathsHead Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 There's reason to come back, but you're going to have to work harder to make things not suck from both a fluff perspective and a gaming perspective. And yes, Dreadnoughts can have plasma-cannons but it's way more risky, as the fire-frenzy rules are now much more lethal to your own troops.

Aarhus Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 For now, you could always count your Bassie as a Defiler, and not send it forward in combat *shrugs*. At least it gives you something to do with a lovingly converted model. I would have NO problems letting someone use their IW Bassie as a stand in for EITHER a Vindi OR a Defiler. As for chaos still being a viable option? Hells yeah! If you listen to The Doomsayers, then you might as well set your army on fire, and forget that GW ever existed. If you listen to the people who have a degree of sense (or two or five), even on the end of the spectrum for people who still don't like the new 'dex (such as our very own Refuse), then there's still plenty of things to do with your 'dex. If you're an optimist like me, then you'll still find tonnes of usage out of the 4th ed dex! It really depends on how you want to view things. Cheers, Lawrence.
