This was good timing as I'm doing Warriors of Chaos for TOW and I'm using the AoS models because I really like the sculpts. I did (in the 90s) have a 5k chaos army (my parents gave away all my stuff) so doing a new army with AoS as opposed to the multipart kit of the late 90s was a must. I have actually brought a few of the old metal Chaos Warriors to mix in with the AoS ones just to add a little quirkiness and potentially give little extra wiggle room for the new plastic.

I literally just finished basing up some Chaos Warriors and am starting on Knights shortly, so this gave me a good idea on how to rank them up. One thing to note is that the rules state the command has to be as close to the center of the unit as possible (Big Blue Book 198) so I'll need to get the champion in a different spot than where you put him. Lovely work!

One of the things I like about rank and files vs skirmish style circular is how units look like small dioramas when ranked up. The Kroxigor look amazing ranked.

Take a look at the base size for Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount: the rules list two sizes, one which would work for the old mini and the other, bigger, suitable for the new one. They knew what they were doing.

The awful push fit knights from the old Start Collecting box are truly the worst GW minis I’ve built in a long time. They’re broken down on the sprue in such a silly way, painting them will be awful given how they can’t be broken down in sub assemblies.

I have been basing several not-shit AoS miniatures on 25MM square bases -- few as there are, but nevertheless, I've found that even the Warcry miniatures can work (excepting the ones with really exaggerated poses). I had to cut the arms off that one marauder warband that uses bone weapons and re-pose them, for example. Good thing the absolute heights of the new CWs are actually about the same as the old ones, can't say the same with the CKs, however. Shame about those wolf riders tho -- they had the same problem I had with new Chaos Knights on 25x50 MM bases -- their tails are too long. Problem is, the CKs seems to fit on the bigger base, but the wolf riders don't look like it. Why anyone would need more than 5 of them is anyone's guess...

You really don’t have to start you message so negatively. The AOS models in my opinion are prove oh the best gw had ever done. And most people. Feel the same. Just cos there not your taste doesn’t mean you need to shit all over them. But yes I was thinking about the warcry warbands the other day and what to use as marauders.

The idea of individual bases is a design choice I wish had been left in the past. I play DBA and Le d'Art de Guerre and while figures per base is encouraged to telling what a unit is, there is nothing to stop and use the KOW scenic based (also used in Impetus for Ancients). Also easier to transport!

GW didn't realize how popular this game was gonna be and dropped the ball for supply and demand. The thing that I love about this new game already is how creative some people are getting with their minis / models. It's retro.

I think Saurus Warriors are going to be a challenge to rank up. I tried it already and even if you use the ones thrusting their spears foreward in the second rank, the ones in the first rank, despite holding them low on their dise overlap the bases and the movement tray in the front quite a bit, which makes getting into contact with an enemy unit a bit of a problem. In the best case, you stand a coumpe of inches appart, in the worst case you break some of the spears. Ranking those Saurus Worriors up is also harder than one might think because their tails are long and all over the place. I managed to rank some of them up, until I realized that I had not tested it with the shields mounted, which also makes quite a difference. I love the models but I think they are just not made for the Old World.
