Proxy marines as Alpha Legion. Have you ever done this?


Recommended Posts

 I was wondering if any of you guys go for the "subtlety" element behind them and rather than field an army as CSM models in Alpha Legion colors, you bring in a mishmash of various marines (at least as normal CSM troops) and field proper Alpha Legionnaires as Chosen. What was the response of the people you've played with before? I am just curious.

I haven't tried using other models but my alphas are quite often confused with normal marines by other players since I forgo the spikey chaosy thing and go for a much cleaner look. Played a game this weekend and my opponents were surprised when my chosen opened up on them. They were all painted with AL decals and everything but one person walking around still  asked me how my ultramarines were doing. Guess I am doing Al right? Lol

My basic chaos marines are a mish mash of all marine kits

 

My elite chaos space marines are all mark 4 armour

 

My headhunters are abit of a patch work for marks though I would like all mark 4, though mark 3 could be cool

 

Most people say they look cool, then we play

I am thinking of how to work that out with my Deathwatch army. Basically have them all disguised as various Chapters, but the "CHOSEN" will either bear the Alpha Legion Pauldron plus Mk 8 or take on the Headhunter bits from Forge World. And thus, I will have a wide dual-purpose Alpha Legion/Deathwatch army.

You could also field Dark Angels for your disguised marines, give some people a chuckle.

 

Maybe field an Alpha Legion Chaos Lord in the robes for a centerpiece. See how long it takes for you to summon a Ravenwing, Deathwing, or even an Inquisition player.
