I'm in the process of collecting an Iron Warriors army, mostly just for something new to paint and play. Purely for fun. If I want to bring the nasty lists out, I'll bring a different codex/list.

I just wanted to get some opinion on things I'm thinking about getting, and how you all would judge it in terms of viable counts-as options. I'm going for a pure machine Iron Warriors list. Lots of metal. The pictures are links.

And of course, I'm getting a Decimator. Any thoughts? Maybe some more ideas?

Marines:


Marines with a shield to count as Mark of Nurgle:


Obliterators. Maybe some more gun customization.

I like the MoN markers, but I think a shield might be more of a MoT thing. I would make the MoN have a lot more bionics

I'm doing the shield thing with my Night Lords for a similar effect.

The marines would be perfectly fine as Iron Warriors too, but I'm not too convinced on using those Dark Mechanicus guys as Obliterators.

I never really thought of the Iron Warriors as Obliterator-related regardless of fluff. They were always the "Daemon Engine and tanks" army to me, especially after reading their omnibus.

I'd focus a lot more on Defilers, Mauler/Forgefiends and normal tanks if I was you. Cultists too. All those units played a big part in the Omnibus (Although the former three units were never explicitly stated because the fiend-tanks didn't exist back then. They were simply called 'Daemon Engines' I think).

Also, in the latest White Dwarf there is a HUGE Iron Warrior's army and it looks amazing. Check it out!

Seeing as MoT is the most worthless thing ever for CSM (oh boy! 6++!), the shields as MoN are totally acceptable.
