I posted and since removed several sprues of used Chaos vehicle spikey bits from eBay.

Can you please alternate uses for chains and spikes as I am wracking my brain to make uses?

Thank you in advance!

You could use them to ring a Dark Eldar fighting pit
Used as trophy racks on Ork vehicles
Trophy racks for headhunter inspired Space Marines
Punished heretic terrain for Inquisitors

You can use them pretty easily to adorn barricades or place them on buildings such as Bastions to Chaosify them (this is essentially what the Chaos Bastion kit actually is). You could even cut them up and place on the bases of your miniatures to make them stylishly evil

Hope this helps

Yeah, spikes make easy tops for barricades. If you remove the spikes down to the horizontal bars, they even look good on non-chaos stuff as girders/frames.

And removing the chaos arrows (and maybe the skulls) from the chains makes them generally suitable for stone-style architecture and occasional use elsewhere (e.g. I've seen them used for animals pulling artillery or to stop fearsome beasties escaping.

The old 3.5 edition of the Chaos Codex actually teaches you how to make terrain and objective markers from those bits.

The long short of it is combine pieces of them with bits of toothpicks, sprue and whatnot to make chaosified tank traps, grisly trophy racks, fence posts and such.

Hell, I'm not that bothered by the Stormraven. Why? Because, as it stands right now, it's "limited use".When it's shoehorned in to the Codex: Space Marines, then yeah. I'll be irked.
