The Purge, Week 1

01.01.09
I made the desicion this year to launch a new Warhammer 40k army - Chaos Space Marines! I want a core of "normal" Chaos Space Marines
supported by units devoted to Nurgle so I can use the amazing Forgeworld conversion kits. I don't have a formal list made out yet, but I know
I want lots of infantry - he who rolls the most dice wins! To start with I plan on building three full squads - two of Chaos Space Marines and one
of Plague Marines, all with Chaos Rhinos for transports. A unit of Terminators, a Forgeworld Chaos Dreadnought, and a Chaos Vindicator will
also join the ranks, not because of some brilliant tactical plan, but because I love the models!

This is actually week one and a half as is runs for ten days!
01.06.09
After several days of studying the Chaos Space Marine Codex and a pile of White Dwarf magazines, I decided on building an army based on the
renegade chapter, The Purge. I purchased several boxes of Chaos Space Marines and a Rhino. I also ordered a few items from Forgeworld, but the
receipt e-mail says I can expect a wait of up to 28 days! 

Assembled five Chaos Space Marines, including an Aspiring Champion.
01.07.09
Experiment with several color schemes and techniques. Painted and based 5 Chaos Space Marines. Overall scheme may be a little too dark, but I
can always add another layer of highlights later - the point of this project is to accumulate a large army, painted to a good standard, in as
little time as possible!  Assembled five Chaos Space Marines.

More photos will appear in the gallery as soon as each unit is totally finished!

01.08.09
Painted 5 more CHaos Space Marines to finsh the unit. I also assembled a Chaos Rhino.

01.09.09
Assembled ten Chaos Space Marines. Purchased a box of Chaos Terminators, another Rhino for the second squad, and a pair of Chaos Spawn.
01.10.09
Started painting the Rhino. Total so far 10 models are finished at 190 points. Planned a 500 point game for next weekend. I need to finish
a five-man unit of marines to stand in for my Plague Marines (already ok by my brother), three Chaos Terminators, and a Chaos Spawn.
