I have a modeling/fluff tie in question for the community. I have begun to slowly paint up my Word Bearers army, and I (of course) want them to have plenty of daemonic elements; Possessed, Defilers, a Daemon Prince, etc. because that is what they are all about. Of course, the bread and butter here is Summoned Daemons squads, but I am at a loss for how to represent the Undivided Daemons that they would/should use (not to mention the fact that the rules for Daemon Packs are quite different from those for the Daemons in their own codex...).
I was wondering what others thought would be a good Daemon model to use, I've considered the old Horrors because they looked very... chaotic and unformed, like they weren't quite sure what form they wanted, the raw stuff of Chaos so to speak. Unfortunately I've only managed to get a few of them, and finding as many as i'd like will probably be very slow, difficult, and expensive. I've also considered Bloodletters because frankly I think the new models look awesome, but they are very iconic Khorne Daemons, on the other hand I could rationalize them as being the most suited to battle (servants of the Lord of War and Rage etc), and thus being the first choice when summoning Daemons in battle. Alternatively I could use the models but remove the Khorne specific iconography and paint them a different color (say, black) and just call them plain vanilla Daemons of Chaos Undivided. What are other people's thoughts? has anyone else come up with the same question, and what did you do?
Thanks in advance for the ideas.
