Forté Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hi. Feels like an age since I was last on these boards. Hope everyone is as heretical and fighting against the deluded followers of the corpse dictator.So... why am I here?Well... I've been conned into taking part in some Kill Team by the other two from the Mr Lee's Minis team, and well... in proper fashion I've gone for Chaos. Now I'm not doing my old Divine Flamers Slaanesh warband. But I've gone for my other favourite legion, the Night Lords.I could've easily gone for a more renegade style group like Talos who aren't all fully into the whole Chaos thing (unless that's changed) but instead thought I'd go more down the Khorne route. Bit more like the original Realms of Chaos Night Lords.But what to use?Well I've decided to try this while the other two have gone for Necrons and Genestealer Cult: Berserker Champion with Power Sword, Plasma Pistol, Specialist: Leader, Possessed, Specialist: Zealot, CSM Gunner with Plasma Gun, Specialist: Demolitions, CSM Gunner with Heavy Bolter, Specialist: Heavy, CSM with Bolter, Berserker Destroyer with Plasma Pistol All will be converted from Primaris because I find the CSM sculpts to be a bit too detailed and ornate for how I see Night Lords.I am toying with a different list though (we're only doing around 100 points) which is this: Berserker Champion with Power Sword, Plasma Pistol, Specialist: Leader, Possessed, Specialist: Zealot, CSM Gunner with Plasma Gun, Specialist: Demolitions, CSM Gunner with Heavy Bolter, Specialist: Heavy, Berserker Destroyer with Plasma Pistol, Cultist with auto pistol, Cultist Gunner with flamer Would be interesting to know your thought.Here are the first two WIP.As you can see there is still more to be done but I've made a few press moulds of bits I have. Used Oyumaru and will be using Milliput to recreate those for use here.Anyway, I'll leave it at that for now. Hopefully I'll have an update in a week so long as I don't get distracted by other projects...Thanks for looking.

Lysimachus Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Very nice start, Primaris are a good choice, I think in KT you notice the scale of the individual minis more? List looks solid, I'd probably go for an Autocannon over a HB, same points but better range, strength and damage? That said, in my Chaos team I did still use the HB mini with AC rules as it just looks cooler! Gameplay wise I'd also consider finding the pt (maybe lose one of the Plasma pistols, which are a nice extra but of limited opportunities to use) to make your Cultist a Champion to be your Leader and hide him at the back! Oh, and Plasma Gunner is usually worth having as a Sniper specialist to be able to reroll the dreaded 1s when you overcharge his gun?

I'm actually using an old SM Devastator HB due to bits I have (and a spend budget of £0). Will have another look at the stats though and maybe see if I have some wiggle room for bits for an AC. Will see on that. Lysimachus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 Bit of an update as I've been playing around tonight with another two kill team members. Obviously more trophies are needed but that will come once the basic builds are pretty much done. Did go with the HB too. I know the range is shorter and lower S but I think I'd rather the extra shot. Though I'll likely regret it in game. Here's the group of murderers so far... Still the possessed and plasma gunner to be put together. Still playing with parts for them. Let me know what you think so far though. Always open to input and feedback.

Brother Navaer Solaq Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Great looking models. What are you going to use to represent chaos cultists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 Great looking models. What are you going to use to represent chaos cultists? Cheers. Was thinking of using Empire Flagellants as a base for cultists. Keep them looking disposable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 **Update** Can safely say I got a little more done on the Kill Team today. Now I have six Marines built and waiting for me to break out the Milliput. Chaos Marine Gunner with plasma gun (specialist): Possessed (specialist): Plenty to do on them all though: Legion markings on two, more trophies, flesh and muscle added to the possessed. Then I'll get them primed black and get painting. Until then, here's the 6 Marines together awaiting a few optional Cultists. Hope you like where they're headed. Always open for feedback and input so feel free to comment :tu: Cheers :) Inquisitor Eisenhorn, firestorm40k, Lysimachus and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 Okay...I've not vanished again but the motivation to do..well, anything really hasn't been the best lately. However; I've got around to getting various trophies added and the Milliput work done. Now I've just got to get them primed and get painting So here's an image dump Group shot... Possessed. Berserker. Berserker Champion. Marine. Marine with heavy bolter. Marine with plasma gun. You'll be pleased to know that one of the trophies decided a blood sacrifice was needed as it quickly jumped off the Night Raptor I was cutting it from, leaving me to stab myself in the finger with the scalpel Anyway...next time there will be some paint involved. Bit more of a speed paint that my usual painting I think. Keep it dark and murderous Till then, stay safe and keep kicking the false emperor's lap dogs. firestorm40k and Lysimachus 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Very nice, the addition of the skins and trophies does a good job of breaking up the clean lines of the Primaris! Forté 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be sure that they won't be getting a clean and pretty paint job too plus some lightning here and there to break it up that bit more too.
