Hello, I need some ideas on how to easily convert the Dark Vengeance Dark Angels to Chaos. I just started, and I have about 50 Marines that I am looking to convert. I need help thinking of ways to easily convert them, and fast. I have a casual tournament on Friday that I would like to play them in.

50 Marines? Friday? Thats insane!
On a more serious note, you could simply paint them as fallen (black armour iirc)
If that's too simple or not fluffy enough for you, there is always file and green stuff...

Question for DA lore buffs: Do the Fallen use the same iconography as the loyalist DA?

Edit: checked on fallen and their scheme, they are basicaly black DA who (sometimes) fight for chaos. You propably still need icons, at least those undivided ones... They are just chaos stars on a stick, but i would reccomend mounting your icons on backpacks (easy to realize and nice for swapping them later on), just make sure they stand out...

Thanks for the help. I decided that 50 Marines would be too hard, so I am going to make a custom legion for Chaos, and their background will allow them to take DA armor. I'm going to call the legion "Looters of Nurgle", which, as the name states, they loot their fallen enemies for weapons and gear.

Ha, you ninja'd me there!
Nice idea... Imagine those butthurt DA
Best of luck for your tournament and your new warband!
