Hey all, just wondering what death guard stuff from 40k can realistically be used for horus heresy? I have roughly 4500 points of 40k death guard so figure at least some of it should be good. I know the one new preator model and the lord of contagion have very similar sculpts so I'd assume that would work and probably plague marines but not sure what else.

I'm sure you could use your terminators as well. As far as I know both are in the game

From what I can understand is all about scaling. Older 40k models will have the same scaling as Heresy models. It seems to me though that newer models are scaled a bit bigger and have bigger bases. could just be me though.

a lot of the 40k deathguard models are still in their heresy armour. The basic plague marines are in MkIII armour while deathshroud are in cataphractii armour. Also they would make a great base for a late heresy army as well as good work double duty for 40k.

The new HH models have been scaled to be better proportioned relative to the primaris marines. So the decent DG models would be generally on the same proportions |

Yah, most 40k deathguard are on 32mm, just like all the line troops in 30k.
By the siege of Terra, the Deathguard are pretty much what they are in 40k. I'd say you're good to go. Just gotta watch special weapons and such.
