The Black Legion specifically has an army of them in the form of the Bringers of Decay. There's also the Plaguebones and the Death Bringers warbands. The Death Bringers specifically are so rotted that they need lots of corrupted technological augmentation to keep themselves alive. The large Nurgle warband known as the Purge probably has some, but due to their emphasis on Nurgle's destroyer aspect rather than the cycle of life theology, there are probably not too many of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10891892.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10891892.page GMT Non death guard plague marines http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892071.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892071.page GMT Non death guard plague marines DG Plague Marines, instead some strange oil is dripping out of their Armour. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892222.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892222.page GMT Non death guard plague marines

I would like to see more about the cleaved. With that black oil dripping from their armor, part of my imagines them not having any biological form reminiscent to being human, but instead under their armor, each Marine looking more like the ouroboros monster from Resident Evil 5.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892764.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10892764.page GMT Non death guard plague marines http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902309.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902309.page GMT Non death guard plague marines
My plague company is the Pallid Hand, painted in their pre-heresy colours (although the off-white is now more like bleached bone). There's also the Gloaming Lords, who are black with bright green banding. Also would recommend looking up Death Guard Frostguard for some frosty plague marines.

As for khorne berzerkers, maybe look at Black Legion berzerkers and Iron Warrior zerkers for alternate colour schemes, but red is generally at least a spot colour. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902331.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902331.page GMT Non death guard plague marines

Are there any chapters that have turned to burgle and become plague marines without being affiliated with the death guard?

Even have their own pretty good rules ( for renegades that is.)

Also, it's basically a deathcult, attempting to kill all live to restart again. But green is pretty much common theme, in conjunction with pale mostly overall.

Thanks for this, it helps to know there are not death guard plague marines. So what about colour schemes? I have never seen plague marines not painted green and another example, I have never seen khorne beserkers not painted red

I do have a bunch, maybee you like the idea: They are the ABC warfare subdivision of one of my armies and are called Billious Roentgens Irradiators.

Spoiler:




It's a kitbash of the new CSM kit with the PM kit. Uses my Scheme from Phyrax's warband (simple grey, with black trim, red helmet base, some differing puch colours and metal bits scratches) It's simple and somewhat good looking, a better painter would probably do an even better job.

They are also one of the examples of Chaos followers lying to themselves, as the Purge want to fight Chaos by following Chaos. Their goal is to kill off all life in the galaxy, like Necron Destroyers, except they use a lot of chemical and poison weaponry. They probably think they are turning Nurgle against Nurgle, and I'm sure Nurgle finds it amusing and in his "benevolence" gives them his blessings anyway. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902424.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902424.page GMT Non death guard plague marines EC, WE, DG & TS]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902473.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902473.page GMT Non death guard plague marines

I've got both Plague Marines and Berzerkers in my Black Legion army, so of course they have black armour with gold trim. You could take a similar approach if you were to choose one of the other non-specific Legions - say, Iron Warriors - or come up with your own.
Also remember that pre-Heresy Death Guard were white, you could do something with that... although admittedly, canonically, the largest changes happened during warp travel when no-one would have seen them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902474.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902474.page GMT Non death guard plague marines BL or one of the other traitor legions. I’m tempted to paint up a loyalist SM more ina custom chapter and then build the corrupted layers on top in order to come up with a colour theme. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902493.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902493.page GMT Non death guard plague marines

Being a follower of Nurgle doesnt make them Plague Marines, it makes them Chaos Marines dedicated to Nurgle.

That isnt to say they dont have any amongst their ranks though.

It has always been true that all Death Guard are Plague Marines, not all Plague Marines are Death Guard, just those that serve Nurgle in carrying Papas diseases and plagues to the mortal realm.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902507.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790846/10902507.page GMT
