Default CSM conversion termis?..umm ..wha?

okay I spotted people discussing 2 wound termis and I figure cool I'll go look that one up in the codex... flipflipflip..musta missed it ..flipflip..maybe if I hold it upside down and read it in the dark..flipflip

now correct me if I'm slow but the Tzeentch subsection(all praise His blessings of mutation and His glorious vision for the universe) under chosen ..ie Elites choice..ie the only way I can see to get termis in a chaos army is mention get rubric sign be sorcerer ... period ... sorcerer gets one wound and troops are slow and purposeful ..Troops ..ie ..not termis

my understanding of a Thousand Sons army is .. Rubric .. be a sorcerer or be a bolter toting gun platform with 2 wounds(period)

so my question is of course how the heck can I get on the 2 wound termi bandwagon?

Key word under the Chaos Spamrine units under the mark of tzeentch

All those under the mark get 'Daemonic Essence'.

neg ..for chosen all units get sorcerer ability ..and automatically pass psychic tests .... thats under the CHOSEN units .. which termis are ..

under marine units .. ie TROOPS ..it mentions aspiring champions being sorcerers ..and rubric sign get deamonic essence ... but THAT is not chosen ..which as far as I can tell the only way to get terminators is to select chosen ..upgrade to terminator armor

therefore .. you could make a terminator a sorcerer however the sorcerers don't get the deamonic essence special ability.

bear in mind ..I'm not argueing to be a knucklehead .. I am trying to figure out how it can be done without bending/breaking the rules

I heard someone mention 42 points.. I assume thats chosen plus terminator plus Mark

on p.59 under Chaos Marines weaponry- it says you can upgrade basic marines i.e. ones with rubric sign, to terminators for XXpts. In that way the marines aren't chosen per say just upgraded rubric marines.

thats the way I interpreted it any how.

The baron has the right of it. Plus, the mark gives them the essence ability, unless my codex is as old as stitch seems to huint it is!

holy **** .... my my ... that calls for a revamp of my army list ... well at least it makes them an elites choice after the fact..

fascinating ..so you actually outflank the standard force organisation charts and codex army list.. creep up behind it and bugger it when no one is looking .. oh that is simply lovely ... if I still had a heart it would be all warm and gooey right now... like a chocolate chip brownie...

Thanks for your patience guys
