You were talking about armour, and that that would prevent infection reliably; that's where the Toughness test comes in anyway.

Call me up on this if you like, but I figured that if zombies are 3 points of absolute crap, why bother with the T test, why not just instantly make them join you. Much more "cinematic" that way.

Zombie plague isn't anywhere near that severe.

This is a super-disease created by Chaos. It is quite potent.

Hey guys, check this out! I stumbled upon it on my search for some zombie crows.

Maybe he could be like the HQ version of a Hunter...



Also, do any of you know where I can find some small ravens? Nothing comes up.

Sorry for the quadruple post:

Here's the stats I gave the Carrion Feeders:

WS2 BS- S2 T2 W3 I5 A3 Ld6 Save/5+ 10Pts
Wings, Fearless
Unit Type: Swarm
Unit Composition: 5-10 Carrion Feeders Bases


So basically I removed Zombie Plague because have a zombie join a unit with Wings just isn't right. In is higher to represent a flock of zombie Ravens swarming unto its prey, very quickly. Fleet's been removed since they have wings. T has been reduced since, after all, they are just birds. Inv of 5+ sounds better, to represent how hard it is to swat them outta the sky, and no Feel No Pain for the reason I just mentioned.

They are essentially a unit that can be used 2 ways;

Tie up a troublesome enemy in cc. Their speed helps them with this, or:
Pick off survivors. Their high In and # of attacks make them capable of finishing off small units, but not exactly enough for an enemy that's at full strength.

If they're T2, then 5 points a base MAX.

And good point about the mixed unit.

1) Beautiful!

2) Thank you!

50 points for 30 wounds with Fearless, 5+ Inv and FnP?? Hmm I would prefer he stuck with 10 points/base

 

[DestroyerHive]

Heya guys! Sorry about the wait, I've gone apple picking and winded up having to help a baby peacock. I tell ya, her parents really weren't too happy...

@bishop: I took off FnP since birds generally aren't that hard to kill. As for the price, I believe its appropriate because if 2 Carrion bases attacked a single Ripper base, the Rippers would stand a fair chance before dying.

Good to see you have decided on the final draft for Carrion Feeders.
Really getting into this and figured i would attempt to do somethig more than throw random idea's around so I have taken the liberty of preparing a little suprise for you.

Before i do please let me say that this was MY idea and MY idea alone, any criticism is to be directed at me.

And now *Drum Roll!!*

CODEX:CHAOS ZOMBIES


Now has a Front cover for it! :biggrin:
All credit for the entire piece goes to VARAKIR.
Let me re-iterate please: this was MY idea no one elses.

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!! Wunderbar! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

Isn't this copyrighted from a comic book though?:shok:


P.S. I'm giving you more Rep once I share some more!

 

[SGMAlice]

I discussed GW's IP with Varakir when i requested this, and we don't think it will be a problem.

Rep. Varakir not me, his skills created this, I just had the idea.

A Liche is Zombie royalty not a ghost

[DestroyerHive]

A Liche is Zombie royalty not a ghost

Really? Cool.

Rep. Varakir not me, his skills created this, I just had the idea.

Well, the very thought of creating a codex cover for me is Rep worthy. I'll Rep both of you!

 

[SGMAlice]

yep, I think it would be a good change

Rep. Varakir first please.

SGMAlice

 

[DestroyerHive]

Rep. Varakir first please.

Done. (ten letter minimum space filler )

 

[SGMAlice]

Whats to do now? Not running out of idea's are you

SGMAlice

 

[DestroyerHive]

Ummmmmmm, okay let's see what we've got here *puts on reading glasses*. Ah, yes, okay!

1) Why do zoms' have Defensive Grenades?

2) What ever shall I do with 30 Mantic Ghouls?

3) Why do zoms' have Defensive Grenades?

 

[Varakir]

This is a nice ambitious project

The original image for the codex came from here: http://dark.pozadia.org/

Their stuff is free to use for personal use, so as long as you credit them in a pdf and don't sell it, you should be ok

I have no idea if GW would have an issue with you using the logo, but again i'd say as long as you credit them and make it apparent that the work is not affiliated with them i'd guess you'd be fine.

 

[gen.ahab]

Frags? WTF would they have Frags?

It is coming along nicely so far.

All credit will be given as appropriate i should think.

Thank you, again, for your efforts in this crazy endeavour.

Yup, thanks alot Varakir and SGMAlice!


Anywho, who's thinkin' Runners?

...I gave them Defensive Grenades because I figuered they'd have the same sort of putrescence as Plague Bearers.

I guess that's a little unrealistic.
