Bring on the War Wagon!

The War Wagon is a massive fighting platform which is pulled along by ferocious Chaos Hounds or armored Chaos Steeds.


There are no actual reigns attaching the animals; this is because they can die in the course of a game and have to be removed.


I created the War Wagon to plug a gap in the Chaos Warband list: it had access to tons of cheap troops (mutants, beastmen gors etc.) but had nowhere to put them. The War Wagon holds 10, costs only 5 coins (plus the cost of draft animals) and allows Chaos Warbands to grow large by including a swarm of dregs being yanked along by baying, slavering monster steeds.


This fishy customer is my Besitgor. He's mostly ork parts with greenstuff.


The war wagon is made of Imperial building parts, a Defiler body and armor plates, and the parts of an OLD Warhammer Fantasy Skaven Screaming Bell.


The hounds are wolf bodies (except for the "sheep" on the far right which is a boar body) with ork heads on top of greenstuff necks.

Rules for the War Wagon are in the updated Warband Rules available on the right.

Chaos Raider Datafax

Chaos Warbands tend to use large, heavy vehicles covered in spikes. They typically eschew mounting a fixed weapon in favor of ramming attacks and ferocious boarding actions. Chaos Raiders are built by slave labor in corrupt manufactorums run by members of the Dark Mechanicus or chaos minions with a bent toward the mechanical. Unfortunately, the corrupt construction techniques used in the creation of most Chaos Vehicles ensure that they are more difficult to produce and less efficient than their Imperial counterparts.

The datafax is available for download HERE.

For more pictures of the Chaos Raider, click HERE.

Rules for the Chaos Raider can also be found under the main Warbands Rules.

Warbands v1.1

New version of the warbands rules with some small tweaks to Chaos. Available for download through the link to the right.

Chaos Raider

The bad guys travel in style. Might call this heavy-metal chic. Here is the prodigal chaos vehicle - the Chaos Raider.

3/4 view. The body is a platic Tonka Jeep with the wheels and suspension removed and the top cut off to make a convertable.

From the front. The lights are from the old Imperial Guard tank sprue, the spikes are from the chaos vehicle sprue as are all the spikes.


From the side. The wheels are plastic GW wheels with Imperial tank tracks glued around them and chaos marauder shields glued in the centers.


From the rear. The exhaust is from an Imperial Sentinel.


Size comparison with an Imperial Bloodhound.


Chaos Warband!

The terrifying forces of Chaos have arrived!

Kodos, a mounted Chaos Chosen Warrior with a hot-shot lasgun, chain weapon and chaos steed - weighing in at a massive 26 coins.




Left to right: Kang, a Chaos Chosen Warrior with cc-weapon and Bolter (20 coins); Gorn, a Marauder Chieftain with cc-weapon and slug pistol (6 coins); Horta, Marauder Chieftain with cc-weapon and slug pistol (6 coins); and Kahn, Chaos Sorcerer with 2 x cc-weapon (8 coins).



Everyone all together. The two on the extreme right are henchmen. The one in the back is the driver (Marauder with cc-weapon and slug pistol - 6 coins) and the fish-looking guy is my custom beastman gor (with 2 x cc-weapon - 6 coins). In the background is the Excalbian, a Chaos Raider vehicle (20 coins).
