@ no one in particular: As for trynig to force someone to play their imaginary game of man dollies only your way ... In a game that has Spase magic and walking talking warlike fungus, S&M elves, shiney vampire spase doods, waggly tail doggy spase doods, etc. ... why get hung up on a small thing like realism? Let him play it his way while you play it your way and instantly win one internet. Congrats.
If you like that pic, you'd love the forgeworld Vendetta with Punisher Cannons.
I don't care what anyone makes with their own money and time, I'm just here to say whether nor not your idea fits well with preexisting 40k fluff "facts". And as long as you make a viable explanation for what you do, you can fit anything in 40k fluff. Just make an explanation other than "theres no reason that marines wouldn't use valks omg why so serious".

This. Make some edits to the valk as it will be chaosed and make it like an AC-130. It must be mounted on the stand at an angle as suck it is going into a firing bank. That will be epic.

Yeah,I had no clue about the battlecannon. It was sort of just an afterthought.

I might do a battlecannon,but all the models it comes on are expensive (defiler,leman russes,vindicator[looks close enough,right?]) and I'm on a strict budget for now

I might just opt for some missiles. They always look cool. Any suggestion for where to find some smexy missles? They have to be pretty big (larger than havoc missles)...

Large missiles, or missile launchers?
The Valk comes with 2 missiles.

Just grab the Apoc Data sheet for the Valkyrie formation that was in WD, just after the guard codex came out.. Apoc lets Chaos take any Imp datasheet..

(it also lets you stuff a t-hawk with ponies..)

<Rarity> I am not whining, I am complaining! Do you want to hear whining?

Thiiis is whiiiiining! Oooo, this mini is too expeennsive! I'm' going brrookee! Can't you make it cheaper? Oh, it's resin and not metal anymore! Why didn't you take it off the sprue first? That's gonna leave a pour spout, and the FLGS is so far away, WHY DO I HAVE TO SUPPORT IIIIIIIT?! </Rairty>

Thank you!
And I totally forgot the valk already comes with missiles. I thought the missiles were FW only for some reason...

You could also gear it up as the Vendetta variant with the punisher gatling lasers if the battle cannon doesnt work out ^_^

Gatling guns make everything cooler >-E

I know right?Gatling guns is winz

I was even considering the Exorcist missile for a while, but I'll just use the same "d6 attacks" principle for whatever I decide upon.....I'll post another thread when I finally get around to buying a valkyrie. Thanks for your wise debating,er...assistance!

Mesopotamia. The Kingdom Where we Secretly Reign.

I know a guy that has his "Traitor Guard" army with his CSM counting as GKs as some sort of uber-Chosen. It's actually very awesome.

Vendettas full of "CSM" are everywhere and it's extremely badass. The great thing about fluff is that you're encouraged by GW to make up your own for your army as you see fit.

Drink deeply and lustily from the foamy draught of evil.
