Were I still doing Emperors Children, i'd likely do a fallen Inquisitor angle. Much more dynamic and interesting, imho.
You know what, that's true Erus. I'm having second thoughts about Traitor guard. The reason I was going with them is IG are pretty versatile, and they would give my Black Legion some long range punch, which I don't really lack, just would like to have some more. Bosh to the Baneblade, I say. When I build my superheavies for Apoc it will be a Brass Scorpion and possible a Stormblade. The one area where I believe IG are weak are troops. Allying with CSM makes good sense, because their infantry is as strong as they come. Chaos doesn't have a weakness with their armour, but they don't have the acess to some of the IG armour, which is some of the best in the game. That is why I think lots of Chaos players choose Traitor guard as allies. Inquisitor angle, you say? Tell me more!
