Anyone willing to work on reclusiarch tanthus or torturer issatroth? Or even one of the leitenents we got in the fluff? Heres a list of the leitenents
Come on guys, we need some feedback and help here!
Great work, Thunderhawk, I like a lot! have some rep :)

If anyone has any suggestions on how to change him, then please go ahead, I was so happy to come back from college and have these replies! :)

Otherwise we can move on to Torturer Issatroth and HQ's are done :)
Ok, sounds good.

I have a quick question about plagarism.

As we all know, the Dark Talons have access to units available in the chaos codex. Obviously, we cannot put those units into the Dark Talon codex as it would be illegal.

Now this seems impractical to me. If I were to play the dark talons, 1. I don't have a chaos codex (not a big problem that though) and 2. I don't wanna have to leaf through 2 different books for stats and special rules.

So, would it be plagarism if we took a units stats and special rules, but changed the name of the unit and the name of the special rules?

Eg, for the chaos lord, we could chance his name to Dark Talon Lord, give him the same stats as a chaos lord, and change all of the names of his special rules (I don't know any of a chaos lords special rules, but for example a chaos lord with 'might of chaos' could be turned into 'talons might' for instance).

Now, would this be possible?

Just emailed baron, we should find out soon enough.
Maybe.

Let's wait for confirmation before we decide anything though sow e know what is on the table.
I got multiple projects and college; it's just a matter of time getting round to this.

Like I said, it's getting round to doing it...I may do it tomorrow, either that or after 15th december, the deadline for the heretic.
