I recently got inspired to start a new chaos army using the models in the Dark Vengeance boxset.

And I am thinking of adding a huge unit of khorn berzerkers using two boxes of assault marines and two boxes of khorn berzerkers. Using them as recently fallen khorn followers. My question is should I paint them as loyalists with lots of blood on their armor or should I just paint them in the warband color?

Thanks for all input.

Well it all depends on what you want to achieve. If they are Space Marines that have recently fallen to Chaos then paint them as loyalists with blood on their armour, though I would recommend using the original Space Marine assault squads but with weapons from the Chaos box sets. It fits the bill of marines that have gone renegade.

Good point, but I want to add some bits from the berzerkers just to show that they follow khorn things like the chainaxe. and shoulderpad with the mark of khorne.

There's definitely nothing stopping you from doing so. Plus the Bezerkers have the running pose so that would work in your favour.

Thats kinda the thing, I like the "running" legs of the assault marines more. But Im gonna post pictures when I start the project if you would be interested in seeing it.

Awesome. Are you excited about using the cultists aswell? Also, do you have and suggestions about what loyalist chapter colors i should use. Im thinking of using white scars or space wolves.

They'll make great cannon fodder, and they're cheap to boot. I'm not sure about chapter colours, If I add any renegade models, I'll go with my own chapter, though if I had to choose, I'd go for Space Wolves. They're already close to Khorne in terms of assaulting and their blood lust.

Good point. I might get a pack of space wolves to add some of the heads.
