Hey all, I've started a sons of malice themed army. Thus far I have just converted 5 fantasy chaos warriors and have 6 csm that I am busy painting, converted 11 of my high elf archers into cultists and have purchased a box of raptors.
I have searched the web for other som players to see what they did to field them and what codex they running on but its a he said she said issue.
Could other som players please help and use this to post som convertions and army lists that they are currently using.
I know som players are few and far but if the majority of players agree on a set codex and stuff I think that one day we will see gw bring the fifth god to life.
I would appreciate what is being used at the moment more than what people speculate what needs to be used. I'm not saying that suggestions are not welcome.

What I have read:
God - malice
Champion - kaleb draak
Captain of the 1st Company - kathal

The number 11 is sacred to them so I have made my 1st company consist of 11 converted csm and my cultists also have 11 in the unit. Will be getting another box of raptors and then scratchbuild 1 as the squad leader to have 11 raptors in total.

Little bit more "fluff" but that has been published.

Brother Invictus became the 11th Doomed One.

in the Warhammer anthology Ignorant Armies, there is also a reference to an unnamed albino Malal Chaos Champion and his warband roaming the Chaos Wastes
The Mark of Malal

The renegade Ogre Skrag the Slaughterer was introduced as a follower of Malal. A short background story told his story as being cast out from his tribe for stealing a "starmetal" axe, with Malal subsequently guiding Skrag to a Chaos Dwarf hold, forcing them to forge him an armor and then slaughtering them all in the name of Malal.
The card game Chaos Marauders published in 1987 featured the "Claws of Malal" card. The unit represented in the game by this card was a warband of Beastmen eager to fight, preferably against followers of the other Chaos Gods.


So I pressume that a unit of 11 beastmen would suffice.
