On display at GamesDay 2009 was this magnificent Chaos Reaver Titan.
Very impressive model. I know some people feel it should be more chaotic, but considering the Vraks background, this slightly less “corrupted” Reaver make some sense in the fluff.
See more photographs of the Reaver Titan.
A new(ish) miniature on display at the Forge World Open Day last April were these appropriately disgusting Blight Drones of Nurgle.
A Daemon manifesting as a machine, these formidable daemon engines of the Plague God poison and corrupt the battlefield.
Though not a Chaos player I do think Forge World, well Daren Parrwood, has designed a wonderful model here. Very unique and clever.

One of the impressive games this year at GamesDay 2009 was the mega game which comprised a large Imperial city surrounded by a defensive wall. Outside the wall was a bridge.
On the bridge the forces of chaos are moving to attack the Imperial City.
The model builders had used lots and lots of Imperial Bastions and Shrine of the Aquila. For the citybuildings they used the Cities of Death building kits. There were a fair few Valkyries flying about the game too.
This a Chaos Stormlord was part of a demonstration game at GamesDay 2009.

Plaguereaper of Nurgle on display at GamesDay 2007.
Converting a Plaguereaper requires a fairly high degree of modelling skill (and a particularly sinister mind, judging by our model shown here). These bastions of pestilence pour forth their corrosive filth onto the enemy, drowning the foe in flesh and armour-eating pus and muck. In game terms, the Plaguereaper shares much in common with a Baneblade, exchanging the main gun for the vile pus cannon. This Strength 7, AP 3 template weapon can dig out almost any defender from any position, the torrent of filth murdering anything shy of a Terminator. The mental image of a Plaguereaper plying its trade on the frontlines is almost as unpleasant as the battlefield reality.
