So i wondered, can someone reccomend me, which gor type unit i could use the best to equip with lasguns/ autoguns?
I am mostly interested in size comparisons between regular AM and the gors.
Atm i tended to consider Bestigors but would rather like it if i knew better how the size goes

Do you mean to replace regular guardsmen with beastmen? Then only the ungors would be your best bet. Even plain gors are too beefy.

Well mostly i am just considering replacing the arms / hands with lasgun ones, (also they will be run as Mutants/ Cultists) so size isn't that relevant.

There's an upgrade sprue for Tzaangors which include autopistols. That would probably be useful for you purpose, especially if you're using Tzaangors.

Na i am khorne aligned, don't want to use tzaangors for that.........

Also i have more then enough Autoguns / Lasguns, it's mostly a question about the arms.





They will be part of an army that is ramshakle, such as this.

Aight.
While gors are larger than human models it would be quite a straightforward and easy conversion to give them lasguns or what have you, atleast if you're okay with them holding it in one hand. Ungors would likely be a better fit sizewise but they're also a lot less beastial.

Edit:
You could also kitbash beastmen heads on chaos cultists/imperial guard bodies. Gor heads might be a tad too large for though.

Great, thank you for the info, should be therefore rather easy to get my hands to that.

Yeah, all you'd really need is to cut off one of their weapon hands and replace it with one holding a gun. IIRC a lot of the gor left hands hold knives which definitly works as their inbuilt melee attack. Just bear in mind that their arms are roughly the size of unarmoured space marines.

Mutants don't need to be perfectly symetrical now do they?

but i got enough space marine Hands to last me aswell, (the new Chaos Chainswords make surely for a decent morednized look).

Plans over plans

I used regular Gors. It needed some greenstuff and some sculpting, especially with left hands, but it's nothing too difficult. Ungors might be easier to convert, but I find them too uninteresting.

This is the endproduct.
