Possible mounts for Chosen of Chaos

[Waynolt]

Well, as you all know, it's possible that Chaos Chosen may get some sort of a mount.
So, what kind of a mount do you guys think it could be?

I was thinking of something like Karrig Sturns mount. You know, a huge, heavily armored, daemonic horse. A Chaos Steed. (http://i17.tinypic.com/3z84qap.png)

[EngraDeathsword]

I said the first one and I shall name the Daemon Bob

[Rdin]

evil chaos monkey of doom!

[Zandalar]

i chose chaos hounds, but i think the daemonic horses are pretty cool too. :mrgreen:

[Durolein]

Well, I think the most probable mount would be a regular barded steed which I would like to see become a bit warped as you level up.

[Sirone]

The coolest one would be the dragon in my opinion, but i think it's most likely to be the horse.

[Krulltak]

Evil Horse of course. Everything else wouldn't make sense.

[Adendan]

I'd so play one if they got the pie!

Went with the 1st though

[Krulltak]

Apple pie isn't chaosy enough. Do apples fall from the sky? NO! I demand custard pie!

[Archon]

Chosen one's on mounts are basically knights. I think the steed would be a great choice.

[Immortalis]

Yeah, regular chaos steed would be good.

[Veilside]

A demonic steed would be nice but a normal chaos steed seems to be the more likely one.

[Insept]

I think a carbob would fit them :lol:

[vehemoth]

They should have tandom bicycles which they will ride alone.

[Steelgrim]

something tells me there will be alot of chosen running around. Thats cool cause they are by far the best looking knights i've ever seen in an rpg.

[Vandal]

one of them things Nazgul ride...yeah

[Veilside]

one of them things Nazgul ride...yeah

This is Warhammer, not LOTR.
If there's to be any sort of flying mount i want a two headed chaos dragon.

[Goshin]

I like the idea of a normal horse who gets warped more and more the higher tier you are.
So the big chosen have crazy deamony horses

[Dustandpolos]

I want something with 4 legs and so much armour you can't see what's under it!

[checkthis5000]

This is what I had in mind. (I picked the wrong choice. I thought demonic mount was the crazy horse. :p I meant demonic "horse")

Chaos Knights (http://uk.games-workshop.com/hordesofchaos/miniature-gallery/21/)

Or maybe this....

Archaon's Mount (http://uk.games-workshop.com/hordesofchaos/miniature-gallery/33/) and before you say "No way you'll get that, that's Archaon, Lord of the End Times" I realize that. I just think the horse looks badass.

Chaos knight horses are standard chaos mounts NOT daemonic horses. Archaons mount is a daemonic steed, granted it's a cool "special" one but it's a daemonic steed none the less.

[Accipiter]

For a moment I thought the second option said "horsey with testicals" and thought someone had too much time on their hands.

But, yeah, I vote for a giant custard. Where's that option?

[Pytho]

A Volkswagen Beetle.

[Arijharn]

I always wanted to ride a Juggernaught of Khorne... pitty.

[Arin]

They should have something exceedingly chaotic like... AN OCTOPUS ON A MOTORBIKE!!!!

Chosen on octopi on motorbikes... Awesome...

[Batzorig]

I chose the badass apple pie myself, but here are some other suggestions:

1. Flaming unicycle with bladed wheel (Boudica style)
2. Claustrophobic tortoise that explodes if encountered by water.
3. Pogo stick of doom.
4. Pimped out wheelchair with NOS and ejection seat.
5. A giant centipede that can carry 50 players across all terrain. (GET ON THE TRAIN!!)

[Krulltak]

But of course, for the sake of helping my fellow Destruction realms, the orcs have allowed all Chaos and Dark Elf allies to ride upon on the Orcs' spikey bitz as war trophies.:mrgreen:

[LastHeretic]

quite obviously going to be a armoured horse

personally...

believe you should have 2 earn nastier, spikier, musclier, chaosier horses upgrades via killing

ending up with a whack off beast, something that puts the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse to shame! war, famine, conquest, plague? sodd that boys meet Bessy my Daemon Steed ;)

quick question....do we feed em sugar cubes, hay, or spare bits of empire soldiers?

[Eomatrix]

I also loved the Fell Beasts in LOTR. I know we'll probably be getting horses, but a dragon encased in daemonic armor being ridden by a Knight of Chaos would be pretty damn cool. However, they would be impossible to balance without making them seem too weak, so I think we'll be seing horse or daemonic mounts.

Personally I would rather not have a mount... I am a big armored titan... any conventional beast will not carry me, short of riding a chaos beast for a short while for quick travel or charges I don't want to be stuck on a horse or normal "mount".

[SonofHorus]

I am thinking a skeleton horse......I know it sounds uncool to start with..but hear me out..

the Skeleton Horse can be a soul trapper...when Chosen commits a kill, his prey's soul would be forever trapped within the Horse's invisible boundry (i.e a horse's physical shape). As more souls he gathers, his horse will get bigger, meaner, faster and have darker color on their boundary(skin). And EVERYONE can see those soul within the horse being totured and their resultless attemp to escape.

It'll be a GREAT trophy for the Chosen. :evil:

[Fizzwidget]

Being a WoW player at the moment, but probably leaving for WAR, I would like to see Chosen having something looking like the Warlocks Dreadsteed, only more warped.

[kingcats]

just going to ad for the op, no horse should beable to pick up a chosen

[Tauren]

Short of a Chaos Beast (IE a warped rhino, or a warped cold one, or some sort of oversized chaos demonic stead (Not a goddamn nightmare)) I don't want to see chosen scooting around on some crappy little horse... THESE GUYS ARE GODDAMN WALKING TANKS!

[enL|Hyperion]

Steeds 4tw. I hope the are customisable - at least a bit. Like: three heads to choose from.

[Ralzar]

I don't get why people are saying Chosen can't ride more or less normal horses. It's what they usually ride in the TT:

http://us.games-workshop.com/games/warhammer/hordesofchaos/catalog/khorne_lord.htm

http://us.games-workshop.com/games/warhammer/hordesofchaos/catalog/knights_of_chaos_box.htm


Sure they're often mutated and demonic horses, but still horses. Same as the Chosen are mutated men, but still men. Or atleast man-shaped ;)

[Axxar]

I'd be extremely surprised if the Chosen mount isn't one of those chaosy horses normally used by Chaos Knights. They are cool and fit perfectly, so why change the usual chaos warrior mount? Just seems too unlikely it would be anything else. Though expect the mount's equipment to be richly adorned with Tzeentchian symbols and colors.

[Disciple]

a deamonic armored horse. it should be rather frightening and as armored as its rider.

[Damienx247]

A black-furred, armor plated, wooly mammoth.:D

[Arstoan Demacus]

A chaos steed as standard mount but maybe they throw in a demonic mount also? Should be fun.

[Oasis]

we follow the changer of ways no duh he'll give us a giant apple pie. No one will suspect a thing;)

[Eroseth]

A Chaos Steed.

a demonic apple pie to float around like a UFO ...no really

[IIbambamII]

i want an armored elephant of doom

[Krulltak]

Sorry, but the Chaos Mammoth is reserved..........for the whole army. http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/warmammoth.htm See for yourself.

[Damienx247]

Well I'll be damned... I didn't even know mammoths existed in the Warhammer fantasy universe. I really need to read the books.

[zathos8724]

I think a demonic wolf... lika big bad drooling, sharp teethed, horned, black glowing, spiky, evil wolf!!!! MWAHAHA :evil:

[Veilside]

Sorry, but the Chaos Mammoth is reserved..........for the whole army. http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/warmammoth.htm See for yourself.

Not the whole army, just an awesomely hardcore champion and a few slaves and bodyguards.

[Odin_Grayfang]

Too bad Juggernauts are Khornate demons. That would be so awesome to see a massive armoured beast mounted on an even more massive armoured beast charging down on some elves.

[Mighty Muffin]

A ''normal'' chaos horse is enough for me. Just cover it in armor with pointy spikes and symbols of chaos and i will be happy :-P

[Kroo]

I agree. In my opinion giving chaos anything more "cool" than that like chaos dragons or hulking, 5000 pound demon horses or rideable chaos spawns that would roam randomly around the battlefield munching friends and foes would make other classes mounts look a bit lame. Empire or dwarfs for example dont really have anything to match the "coolfactor" of most of the mounts listed in the poll so imo chaos should keep it simple too.

Or steeds of slaanesh, giant worm-thingies with multiple breasts that move at ridiculously fast speeds.

[Burtybeetle]

I would LOVE for my mount to mutate from my body.

well asuming chaos are cold blooded i think we should be allowed to kill DE's and take their Cold Ones

[Hatemonger]

Just no 'fire horses' please.

[Damienx247]

Just no 'fire horses' please.

I agree, too much chance for lag.

[Arijharn]

I agree, too much chance for lag.

You mean like graphics lag? turn down your video settings then.

[Damienx247]

Wouldn't help if a lot of Chosen gathered in one spot, like before a raid on the Empire capital.

[giovanni.juraj]

We need horses in plate whit spikes and chaos simbols , to make fear in eyes of our enemies. They must be so scary that empire priests will turn out from battlefield

[Amh]

Roller Blades FTW !! (evil ones)

That thing is the BEST GOD DAMNED MOUNT I HAVE EVER, EVER SEEN!! I hope thats the chaos chosen mount, god that thing is f^#king awesome... Hell, i might want to be that thing instead of an actual character...it is THAT cool.

That is what i choose for the polls, that monkey horse thing.

Edit: Does anyone know what that thing actually is? im looking for it in the GW website, but i cant find it...:confused:

[Ravana]

I don't expect flying mounts, so i'd hope for a Chaos Steed. If I don't get one, i'm going to be mad as hell. It's simple, be Chosen Warrior for 20 levels, then become a Chosen Knight for the next 20.

Speaking of which, has Mythic released any topic combat from mounts, or exactly which classes are getting them?

[Zeetchmen]

Warped up horsey o' Tzeentch with tenticles and a huge mouth!

[Arijharn]

Speaking of which, has Mythic released any topic combat from mounts, or exactly which classes are getting them?

There's that Q&A video from Baltimore I think that confirmed that mounts (I think even mounted combat) are in and that's about it. I think that while mounts will be available to all classes (make getting A-B quicker)... even a super-charger for the Magus, I would highly, highly doubt that mounted combat is eventually open to all (a good example is the Dwarfs as a whole).

Anyway, my crystal ball suggests:
Chosen
Knights of the Blazing Sun/Warrior-Priest?
High Elf Tank?
Dark Elf Tank.

[Axxar]

We've heard directly from them that the Chaos Chosen and the Knight of the Blazing Sun eventually will be able to fight "strongly by not having their feet on the ground". These are also careers where it makes a lot of sense that they have mounted combat.

They've stated that "Dwarfs don't fight mounted! Haven't you read the IP?!".

If I recall correctly they've stated that the Magus' disc isn't what they consider a "true" mount, so the fact that he's on the disc doesn't mean he's "fighting mounted".

Someone's claimed to have asked a Mythic guy at Baltimore about how many careers will be mounted, and according to him the answer was "one career per side", meaning two (I hope this isn't true).

Also:
Cool (http://uk.games-workshop.com/storefront/store.uk?do=Individual&code=99110210103&orignav=13)

[Soulsmith]

the model isnt a release thing, its a mega conversion. I mounted my cold one knights on newer cold ones, looks eviller. Its gotta be the horse for chaos mount, thats wot it is on tabletop

[Fandros]

would love to have a little dragon but thats not gonna happen so im all for the daemon horse :p

[KyanMehwulfe]

Whatever has six or more legs will suffice for my tastes.

[Aysop]

pink fluffy ponies with cute little hats! :p

[Hatemonger]

http://uk.games-workshop.com/goldendemon/2004season/images/warhammer-monster-silver.jpg

The only mount I will accept, I don't care if it isn't our god.

[BallsOfSteel]

oops. I was a 'tard and thought the first one and the Daemonic Steed were the same things. They were certainly described similarly.. I'd have to go with the normal mount.

[BallsOfSteel]

There's that Q&A video from Baltimore I think that confirmed that mounts (I think even mounted combat) are in and that's about it. I think that while mounts will be available to all classes (make getting A-B quicker)... even a super-charger for the Magus, I would highly, highly doubt that mounted combat is eventually open to all (a good example is the Dwarfs as a whole).
Why would the Magus get a super-charger and not every other class? That's racist and classist, both.
