Why? Why in the world would you ever take Chaos Ogryns? Love the model and modeling opportunities, but it seems that Chaos Spawns are infinitely better.

Well spawn aren't a good comparison because of the extremely restricted avaiability of them in Renegades (Can only take 1-3 units if your warlord is tzeentch, can't even take them in Vraks). Also spawn are only 3 models ever and you can take larger Ogryn squads.

But yes Renegade Ogryns are god awful.

Why do people keep thinking you can't take spawn in varks?

The fact the IA13 list has limits on them has no bearing on the varks list. And they appear on the varks list as elites, with no strings attached.

The Vraks entry for spawn still has the same exact "may only be taken through the Master of Renegades rule" that the IA13 entry has. Which you can't do in Vraks since you can't take convenant of tzeentch. It clearly an editing error in that they mixed up the spawn entry with the maurader entry (which is given permission to be taken but is missing)
