Its not really a video game so I guess it goes here. I'm wanting to start playing Chaos Space Marines...well more I'm wanting to collect, paint and modify the models, the actual game is just a cool bonus. I have two questions, 1. Does anyone play? and 2. Does anyone know if I can just take normal Space Marines and greenstuff/crave/melt them into Chaos Space Marines? Its just that my mates have some ones that they don't use and will sell to me cheap.

Mmm, you would be best off asking at one of the gaming stores (the only one I know of is vagabonds). I dont play, though I think someone one here does, but I doubt they will let you "modify" an existing marine into a chaos marine. Razz

1. I play.
2. How extenstive is you knowledge? If you know the backgound try this as an idea:
Select a Chaos Legion and paint your Imperial (normal) Space Marines pre-heresy colours (which are the best colours imo). That way if you buy actually Chaos Space Marines later on, you can incorperate them and have an explaination on why you're using Imperial Space Marines, without have to maim, kill and burn them....

many many people have done all kinds of conversions for 40k and almost every other wargaming system there is. as the one you are thinking about is even accurate to the story of the game.... go for it. at the same time i would suggest looking at the warhammer website for ideas on how to do effective conversions

also look at this auction
