Re: Sorceress on Manticore - suggestions needed

I too would be interested in this!
Having halfheartedly converted the lightly armoured beastmaster to a heavily armored dreadlord doesn’t do the beast justice.

Advise: experimental 3000p list vs WE

Hey there, I normally like to throw together my of lists and have been faring well. But for quite some time now I’ve been on a terrible losing streak with my Druchii and I’m frankly fed up with it. It’s become clear to me that don’t own the most competitive De models (as I always focused on theme an...

Re: [PLOG]Reaper Kharybdiss alternatives

Thesis has been eating up most of my time and a bad losing streak has put a damper on freeing up time for my Khari.

Re: Good Sorceress on Steed Models?

As I am a Gamezone fanboy I shall take any opportunity to plug it: They've got a wonderful mounted Dark elf musician which could pass for a sorceress.

Re: End Times: Khaine

So, the conclusion of The Sundering series is bundled with this release. I really curious as to how much of the actual End Times story it includes. Is it simply a supplement to the story bundled wit the rules (meaning you need both)? Is it an enlargement of this story and a full novel on its own? I'...

Re: Opinion on Cold One Chariots

I've got a unit of these and am absolutely in love with them. They're brutish, big and look capable of that feral instinct and mindless rage. On top of that they are way more beefy than the raptor Co's. I only have Battle cow Co's apart from these so I can make some comparison shots later on in the ...

Re: [PLOG] Teddet's New Dark Elf Army

Red-black-white, what an amazingly powerful scheme. Very bold but it works great! The skin tones you've used on the witches might held soften it up a bit, but I'm really liking it. I use a mainly red-tan based theme for my Skaven, but since there is so many shades of brown fur in between these collo...

Not sure about the lower jaw yet. I might leave it like this, with some sharpened teeth. Another option would be to close it up like the beak of a giant sea-turtle with an under-bite.

Re: Assembling the raiding force

Thanks a bunch!:)
I've got stormvermin fur mixed in allot of my De scheme, so that'll work nicely.
It indeed seems like a faster way. if it turns out to be looking better, its all the more preferable.

I'll give it a shot and try to layer in some veins.
Thanks again!
