So just a quick question on 'counts as' and whether many of you would find this appropriate, I'm still fresh to aos so sorry if this is a bit basic... I'm building a chaos army and I'm keen on including a warpfire dragon. The forgeworld model though is a lil ugly, but their carmine Dragon looks alot more like what I had in mind for a dragon. What sort of problems would you encounter substituting one for the other do you think? I'm assuming tournament play might be an issue?

I think for most tournaments, as long as you notify the TO ahead of time, it should be fine. From a quick look at the pictures, I can hardly tell one from the other.

As long as it's a GW/FW thing and sort of resembles what you mean to use it for.. there shouldn't be a problem.
