Choas Mounted horde!

With the new Chaos army book coming out I saw the opportunity to field an entirely cavalry army and grabbed at it with both hands. I then immediately broke my 'Cav only' rule as I'm going to be rocking some monsters in there too. Who wouldn't want Khorne Orgres charging in with 5 attacks each and their Bull charge! and with a movement of 6 they're not exactly slow. So basically I'm making a 'Fast' Chaos army rather than a full cavalry one.

To this effect I needed a bunker unit to put my characters in, namely a Level 2 Nurgle Sorcerer and an Exalted BSB. Step up the humble Marauder horsemen. These guys are no slouches as fast cav go and can be tooled up in all manor of ways. as they're going to be a bunker unit I don't need them to do anything fancy and so I'm keeping them cheap as chips with their only upgrades being shields and the mark of Nurgle. Now all I have to do is build and paint the 14 I need :)))

I managed to bag 12 Marauder Horsemen on ebay in various states of dis repair, and here they are...



Here is a tower of bitz boxes (my wife sorted and separated all the bitz. she has OCD. Of course I'm very thankful!!)... and another box full of bitz on sprues...





I had 5 axe weilding Horsemen already so managed to put together a unit of 5 Javelin chuckers too!!!
I now have all variations of Marauder horsemen :))
