Alright so I have a unit of 10 Alpha legion Chosen and I want to give them Daemonic Speed. trouble is according to the way they upgrade i described in the codex, I'd either have to make some some kind of crazy centaur, or long gangly legged freaks. I'm not sure I like either of those options. Right now I am thinking I will either cut and lengthen the legs, or model them wth some sort of chemical tubing, to represent some sort of crazy chemical concoction they take to bost their speed. The ultimate in performance enhancing drugs! Anyone else have any ideas?
well, you could use the running legs from the plastic khorne berserkers set, aswell as modelling their bases so they're leaping over rocks other stuff. I agree that mutatoins would look wrong as Alpha legion are not meant to be anywhere near the EOT and thus crazy appendages might be innappropriate.

Sort of a small version of the Disk of Tzeentch. Heres the plan - get hold of some small flying bases and the clear rods. Drill a hole into the normal base so you can glue in the rod later. Add some spikes and chains onto the discs and glue the models on top. Spray them black, paint em, then glue in the clear rod onto the base and the disc. Voila. Note that the discs should be about 1cm off the base, no more or it would look like Flight.

I second Forrix84 with the Khorne Beserker legs btw, but maybe combine it with the "combat drugs" option. Afterall a long long time ago before GW had thought of Chaos Undivided, AL were aligned with Slaanesh
Incidentally what does everyone think about an AL squad of possessed with Daemonic Talons using Daemonettes talons from about the vambraces on normal marines. Obviously made to look a bit more nails than the rest of the bunch with conversions and trophies etc?
thanks for the advice everyone, I think that I will most likely wnd up going with the running/drug addicts look, but everyone has had great suggestions so far. As far as the daemonic talons go, I would say that you'd need to add a little bit of bulk to them, as daemonette claws (the new ones anyway) are kind of skinny. I'd say eiter bulk them up with green stuff, or use the old daemonette talons. Also, remember that Possessed can't be given veteran skill, so your guys wontget to use our super awesome Infiltration ability.
Thats ok. I was planning on using them only in huge games over 2000 Pts so they would be the proud owners of a shiny new Land Raider. That should do the trick, nasty
Know what your saying about them needing a little bulk with green stuff, but its easier to "fill in the gaps" as it were than start from scratch. I aint a good modeller
