Bought Dark Vengeance but don't want to waste points for a stupid shotgun on your otherwise awesome looking champion or for useless autoguns? These basic conversions will give you a standard 50 point 10 man cultist squad from the DV box. The picture is fairly self explanatory. This is really easy and might even be common sense but I looked around and haven't seen anything about it, lol.


For the champ, just cut the top of his shotgun off and the autopistol from one of the cultists you like the least and glue it on his hand. This will give you 8 melee cultists including the champ. Then take the two cultists with rag masks like on the right side of this picture, cut the autogun with hands still attached in half so that it's pistol sized. Cut the muzzle off the discarded half of the autogun and glue it on the new pistol half. Cut the trigger hand off the autogun of another ranged cultist, and glue the bayonet into his new left hand like a knife, then glue that on. Last, use epoxy putty to attach his right arm in whatever pose you choose. And there you have it, a simple 10 man MSU 50 point cultist squad made from Dark Vengeance ready to be filed and primed.

Admittedly not the greatest looking pose for the new melee cultist but at least you're doing something with those cultists with the pointless autoguns.
