I would like to get some advice from you. I used to play Chaos Space Marines some 6 years back or so and I think I want to get some CSM again. I gave my marines away so I would be starting from scratch which is good actually because I don’t want to work around an army I made when I was in my teens.

They were Word Bearers and I still very much like the Word Bearers but I chose Word Bearers back when they weren’t so popular or developed lore wise and that made them cool to me. They have gotten popular now. (In some cases steeling the spotlight from the Black Legion which I think is ridiculous to be happening in the HORUS Heresy novels even if it is my legion,   but I digress). So the thing is I like the Word Bearers and I want to do an army I like, not being influence by others or how popular they are, but at the same time I want a unique army that is malleable. And maybe I don’t want to do WB because I already did them. But I do still like them and want to do them….

So the question is what Legion/Renegade to do? I am strictly chaos undivided. That is the Chaos complete (Word Bearers duh!) sort of Undivided, not chaos unaligned (Night Lords). And I hate Alpha Legion so don’t recommend that. Give me your advice. What are some CSM that are cool and new? Why should I consider them? What shouldn’t I do? My current options are.

1. Black Legion

2. Word Bearers

3. Brotherhood of Darkness

4. Betrayers of Pain.

5. Iron Warriors

6. Violators (Not pink Slaanesh, nice, my one exception to Undivided)
