So, I'm debating on building a purely silly Chaos Daemon 40k army in which all of the models, besides the Tallyman, are green stuffed bannanas of various sizes. Question is... would you play it?

**Breotan**

No.

**darkkt**

Oh no, no, no....

Now youve got me thinking of the daemons of Corn (husks for the husk god).

**waaagh!orksrocks**

I would but your in america so I won't be able to but as long as you know what everything is to tell me i'm fine

**SagesStone**

With a little creative writing they could work

I wouldn't mind it would look funny though. But I suppose some people will come into this thread talking about grimdark =/= Chaos Banana Marines.
When in fact if you think about it it does.

Simply like this. People don't like them because they seem stupid, that means they hate them right. They don't want to see them at all. Eventually this will lead to more grimdark
or at least make them both funny and grimdark enough for there to be no arguement about them.

They're a grimdark paradox.

Go for it and post pics.

**KingCracker**

depends. If everything is fairly easy to tell what it is, then Id say yea lets do this. If they ALL look like bananas, big, yellow, plain bananas, and they all look the same, then no.

Awesome!!

Just make them gothic bananas all with different banana action poses. I would suggest some banana power armor, as it would suit many peoples vision of the future, with a banana twist.

Banana, Banana, Banana, BANANA!!! In the same vein as Potato, Potato, Potato, POTATO!!! ....ahem.

AHAHAHAHAH Banana action poses.. HAHA... i laughed for like 10 minutes before i could type this... omg how dare you make my insides hurt from laughing so hard!

-on the other hand i 100% agree with the poses... however no power armour... they is daemons not marines... red for bloodletters... pink for slaanesh, green for nurgle (make sure they are rotted bannanas) and blue for tzeentch.... COLORED BANNANAS! and i would definitly play you if you did this... without a doubt

**Goodge**

you should take a cast off really small bananas..... or better yet ... use real bananas!!!!

**Try Again Bragg**

I would play you but I may have trouble as I rolled on the floor laughing. Also I'm curious as to how a banana attacks people. I have seen many a banana go a little wild but this is slipping on peels. How does a banana hurt people. Still great idea, next up should be the california raisin inquisitors

**Wrexasaur**

You could feasibly cast some sweet plantains... but, I doubt you will find any that can represent... OMFG WAIT...

CANDY BANANA MOLDS... YES YES YES this would work. Hmmm... the candy ( http://www.groovycandies.com/V2ProdDetail1.asp?Product_ID=3175 ) is a bit small. Perhaps if you have the patience you could cast a bazillion and simply putty them together. They would be easy to pose, AND THEY WOULD BE BANANA BUNCHES.

OOOOOooooohhh right!!! Giggity

FANTASTIC!!!

Raisin people would be better for close combat... Hold on can you make a dried-fruit basket army? Mangoes, Bananas, Raisins, Prunes (eew prunes), Apples, wait....

TRAIL MIX ARMY... this is cracking me up omfg

**Buttlerthepug**

NOOOOOO, its got to be bananas... action posed bananas!!! GAHHHH

**Goodge**

Will the bananas have big beefy arms?

**Wrexasaur**

Bananas with sausage arms perhaps?

You could call them the breakfast bunch

(

) echo, echo, echo

**Buttlerthepug**

hmmmmm you should make the greater daemon or w/e HQ is look like that dancing banana... you know that one? he dancing around the screen with stuffz... ohhh yeah

**SagesStone**

I'm pretty sure TC was talking about this.

**Wrexasaur**

YES. This thread officially has a mascot now!!!

**Buttlerthepug**

YES... thats the one... make ur HQ err Lord err w/e... make that HIM! the little err will be big, DANCING BANANA! GO GO

**Tek**

Oh my goodness, I just laughed out loud at work, and am now being looked at...

The Tallyman was the bit that got me. fething funny stuff man.
I'd love to play this list.
It's fluffy, flavourful and original.
Defo rotted bananas for Nurgle daemons, but keep them all yellow. Maybe have flaming bananas etc for unit types.

Man I want to see this modelled now!

**Buttlerthepug**

ooooo flaming bananas.... or bananas half peeled with a ton of skulls and stuff... :O your slaanesh bananas need to be peeled and showing sum banana junk if you get what im saying... mmmhmmmm, doesnt all slaanesh got some of dat goin on?

**fynn**

be funny to see, but then i want to get some of these guys http://www.gamers-quest.co.uk/acatalog/info_FEN_TCC14.html
to use as summoned lesser deamons

**RiTides**

Yes

It would be funny

. You'd have to have a good way of representing what each different unit / unit gear is, though!

**Stump**

WOW!! this could be sooo cool. I was looking for banana pics and found this. I could not help but post it.

Caution, there is a nasty banana behind this link.

I'm not sure if this thread is making me hungry, turning me on, or both. The California Rasins made me laugh too loud at work though.

I'll be waiting to see some pictures.

Hold on If bananas belong to demons and raisins the inquisition what fruit would each race be. You need to make a banana army but a battle on a board that looks like a kitchen with different fruits beating the sh$t out of each other would be hysterical. Might I put forth after raisins grapes for the guard. They come in two colors like the most common IG troops, cadian and catachan. Also the most angry and powerful become raisin inquisitors.

**Buttlerthepug**

so what, watermelons are orks then? BIG AND GREEN. WAAAGH
