Is there an easier way?

Post by Crimsonsun »

I have been thinking about getting back into forty k for a while now, and have fallen in love with the forge world traitor guard armies, and wanted to base an army around a core of those models and convert more along that theme, i have spent all day trailing the net to find an army over view and was disappointed to find they cannot field demons, the only way i can see around this is by taking a chaos marine army also and running them together, but that will only be an option in larger games. If i am mistaken i would be glad to know, or if there is another way of getting demonic support. This will be a long term project due to cost and many many conversion ideas i have but i really dont understand why they cannot call upon demonic allies. Thanks.

Unless you want to build two armies then no.
Daemons in 40k are going the same way as daemons in fantasy - stand-alone self contained army.

Expect to not see them anymore alongside chaos space marines as soon as they get their own new codex.

It would be cool if they did a Traitor Guard codex, or have an entry for them in the next Chaos Marines Codex.

With the Demons thing, I agree with Dalamar that they will probably turn into a stand alone army. Lets GW sell more stuff. Better to do Apoc army if you want that sorta thing, then you can field CSM
