Sweetie Belle snorted. “Whatever. We didn’t do this to get YOUR approval, and we’re not about to let you get to us now.” She smiled as she looked over at her friends. “We’re Cutie Mark Crusaders no longer! From this point onward, we are…”
Suddenly, all three of the Chaos-marked fillies jumped into the air and shouted at once. “CHAOS MARK CHAMPIONS!!”
Diamond and Silver stepped back in surprise at the shout, and they raised their eyebrows at the title.
After a brief, awkward silence, Scootaloo spoke. “This way we can still use our old clubhouse stationary.”
“I’m a little less interested in the acronym and more interested in the ‘Chaos mark’ thing,” Silver Spoon noted.
“Yeah, that reminds me: what are your special talents, again?” Diamond Tiara asked, her eyes tracking over to the symbol on Scootaloo. “Those cutie marks don’t exactly speak for themselves, and knowing you three, I wouldn’t put it past you to just paint something on your rumps and hope nopony would ask questions.”
The contemptuous grins she got from the trio were quite annoying, and Diamond Tiara had to admit that if they were lying about their new marks, they were doing an excellent job of it.
“Mah special talent is bein’ immune to disease and pain,” Apple Bloom said smugly, “Ah’m practically immortal!”
Sweetie Belle frowned. “I thought you weren’t immune to disease, just its symptoms.”
“Whatever. What’s the difference?” the young earth pony waved a hoof at the unicorn. “You go next.”
Sweetie Belle let the disagreement go and then grinned at the pair of fillies who had tormented her and her friends for so long. “My special talent is Chaos magic and secret knowledge!”
Diamond Tiara raised an eyebrow. “So you can finally use magic now? Well, how about that? Next thing you know the pegasus will actually be able to hover.”
Both Sweetie and Scootaloo looked rather annoyed at this.
“Well… it’s ‘Chaos’ magic specifically,” Sweetie Belle admitted.
“Which means what, exactly?” Silver Spoon asked.
“She can’t levitate things yet, but she IS good at wreakin’ havoc and breakin’ things,” Apple Bloom clarified.
“Your parents must be SO proud,” Diamond scoffed, rolling her eyes.
Scootaloo stood up on her hind legs and pressed a hoof into her chest proudly before she answered. “And as for me, my special talent is supernatural fury!”
Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon had to take several seconds to digest that before the latter asked, “Your special talent is getting angry?”
In the blink of an eye Scootaloo was nose-to-nose with Silver Spoon, and the gray filly recoiled as Scootaloo glared at her.
“Yeah, it is! So what? Wanna make something of it?!” the pegasus growled, her wings flared and one hoof cocked back.
“N-No! I was just asking! Calm down!” Silver stuttered nervously.
The Ponies in Iron Heart are a lot more subtle in their evil and insanity. There whole thing is how normal they still act despite converting to fucking Chaos. This is usually used as a tool for comedy, but occasionally the sheer creepiness of seeing some normal average joe ponies and well behaved kids just casually bring up the literal Gods of Evil they now worship on the playground or at the bar to give one example or to see the Pony IRS just walk up to a blood soaked Chaos Church to audit them like they would any other non-profit they suspect of fraud is brought up by the few Ponies (like Celestia) that have not bought what Chaos was selling.
I mean, that thing quite literally pukes plasma.
I haven’t actually read the last three chapters of book four yet. I stopped reading it because I was afraid it was going to end soon, horrible logic I know. I’ll start reading once again! Love the stories!
That is, in fact, the story this picture is based on.
I’m the author, and it’s in Book 5 now.
The Warhammer Story I read was this;

…And the three stories before it. Good times.
Just clipped the tip of a real iceberg there then.
If you enjoyed the fanfic you read, I could recommend a few others.
I’m even working on one myself, although my writing skills are about as good as my drawing skills.
Not bad, but completely out classed by some of the more talented fans.
Anyway, try these:-
Ork In Equestria. Absolutely hilarious crossover story, but sadly never got finished. Hasn’t seen an update in around 2 years now.
http://www.fimfiction.net/story/29688/oie
Courage, Honor and Friendship. Space Marines of the Ultramarines 2nd company chase 3 damaged Tyranid hive ships to Equestria.
Excellent story, and full of little quotes and stuff the fans-of-the-fandom will pick up on. Again, hasn’t seen an update in, like, FOREVER.
Quite a long one this though.

If it’s something a bit darker you’re after, this one reads more like one of the official books. In this one, Equestria’s been wiped out, and Twilight’s the only survivor. She does act a lot out-of-character in this one, but it’s a well-written story.
The prequel is here. Warning, this one’s very different to the character of the show.

The follow up, which is what I was actually on about is here.

My own story is here. Thinking of 1) Re-naming the story, and 2) Doing it as a comic strip, which will no doubt get posted here if I ever get on with it.

*some bigger legs
True, just a few changes to the color schemes and is all they would need.
I saw a Heldrake that was black and gold with some dark red, make the red more vibrant and change some of the gold lines to red and some legs it could be passed off as a alternate art version of the Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon.
To be fair, none of the new daemon engines would look out of place on a Yugioh card. Especially the Heldrake.
