For shame.

The original RT book is quite a fun little read.

Highly-recommended if you can get one cheap.

Actually there were rules for enslavers in a chapter approved for 4th ed I believe. The one with lots of alien rules.

You fielded a normal army but the enslavers were all your HQ choices and could enslave the opposing player, but your own units could turn against you too I believe.

That CA also had rules for lesser catachan barking toads, croatlid and a few others.

adding to the list

eldar exodites
eldar space pirates (kind of sort of DE now I guess)
all the cursed founding chapters (especially the minotaurs, the most unplayable army ever devised, all your infantry must move towards an enemy every turn and charge if possible)
legion of the damned as a full army


if we're doing dropped units
ork tinboyz
ork madboyz
squig herds
boar riders
pigdoks
cyboars
all the old named epic battlewagons (like a spleenbursta)
squig lobbas
pulsa rokkits
confessors
human bomb squads
imperial robots
IG landspeeders
thudd guns
rapiers
tarantulas
mole mortars


and I can't believe nobody mentioned the clawed fiend of the donorian sector

"The Sensei".
This is one for truly old school players and is making me feel older as I type. Think space ninja-jedi's of all races (Alright maybe not all but..) fighting for equality against ALL (yes, including the emperor and his magic lazy-boy) who do injustice.

Oh yeah. I remember the rules for creating Sensei warbands from "Lost and the Damned". They were sort of a anti-Chaos chaos warband that used the same amazingly random generation system! I actually got to run a game against one of those things way back in the day.
Fun stuff.

Proud owner of two of the long gone armies mentioned in this thread and more removed unit/army options than he cares to remember......

Were your guys Malal worshiping Grey Sensei?

I asking because I don't really see the Sensei as an anti-Chaos chaos warband, unless of course these were your own Sensei background. To me they just seemed like a mix of the Lone Ranger and a Jedi and some other stuff. Pretty much hated by everyone it seemed. Oh and if you were one you were impotent. That would stink.

Yeah they did seem to have a problem with everyone and vice versa. I was refereing to them as "anti-chaos" in that they were a nominally "goodguy" (as much as anyone in RT was really that) force using many of the chaos warband mechanisms.
Sorry I was not clear.

Ah, gotcha. Yeah the Sensei sure seemed to be the clearest indication of the only thing that was good and honorable in the universe, but like they say, the bigger they are the harder they fall. Kind of explains the Primarchs too.
