Hmmm... the most obvious count as judging by battlefield role would probably be the Leman Russ. Give it the Walker ability then.... I'm not sure... On the Playtest forum there were some suggestions for rules in the Fan Rules section.
Cheers!

Okay, having looked at the latest Chaos list from the vault, I am trying to figure out what to use as what in my current jumble of mixed generation Chaos troops. The Chosen are the Terminators, the Havocs are the heavy weapons troops, so what do you use for Obliterators? Anybody know? my 2cents,] iblisdrax |

I've been using some of the old imperial robots. Lots of guns on a more or less humanoid shape. Cheers! |

Hi! Obliterators? Heavy weapons buys? You could use the old chaos heavy weapon model. Primarch |

Yes robots would make good Obliterators and CSM Hvy Wpns figs as Havocs ... |

Ok, what about Raptors - I am guessing I will just wait for the new minis. Nice idea for using the robots as obliterators tho... Mind you I also like the idea of using robots as ogryns in IG using the counts as rule. BTW I just picked up 10 plastic knights (and a beetleback still on sprue!!)... anyone got any idea what i could use the knights as in EA? |

Aside from this subject, I have a question about sacrifices. Are they one shot deals, or do you get the same amount each turn? If the former, that makes them kinda expensive units, if the latter, they are very powerful tools. Comments, anyone? my 2cents, iblisdrax |

I'm going to "wait and see" for all Chaos models as I will use what I have as is. ?Or say Beastmen as Mutants and Trolls & Minotaurs as Big Mutants, for example. ?I converted all my plastic Knights that came with TL to Chaos. ?4 Khorne, 3 Tzeentch, 3 Nurgle, we don't use Knights otherwise, we never liked the models or concept. ?Knights could used as Defilers (?) ? ?

Hi! I always liked to have minotuars, trolls and other wierd chaos troops in my armies. It gave chaos "character". Primarch |

Knights as defilers!! Thats a good idea... I never really liked the concept (knights) either, but they came as part of a package deal, I'll probably sell/swap them. |

Yes, Knights as Chaos Defilers seems to me to be a good use for them ... |

I would use my IG assault troops as Raptors, but I am using them as IG Stormtroopers, so no go there.  my 2cents, iblisdrax |
