Every price has doubled compared to WH. This allows the end of half points for certain options. The 2.0 BRB is planned to last many years (wel, there will be a 1.9, a 1.99 just bfore, and possibly a 2.1 shortly after but you get the meaning). 2.0 will see a total overhaul of magic. DE will be among...

That balance is achieved by stripping flavor and flexibility out of the armies, DE more than most. (And skip magic, miscasts are MURDER on expensive but fragile units like DE.) At least, that's my take on it. True. That is why magic will be redone (especially miscasts)for 2.0. Also, DE should be ov...

Hi, Teowulff, welcome back! No, 9th Age does not simplify the rules much, with 114 + 15 pages base rules, to be complemented with the army books... What was done was to clarify greatly the rules, which do not have the ambiguity that 8th ed suffered from here and there. At the moment, all army books...

I haven't played for a while nor have I really attended this forum .. Lasty I played some 8th edition and although it had some imbalances, it wasn't so bad (especially not for DE armies). Then Sigmar came, making the game into something it shouldn't be. Now we have 9th age .. which (from what I've r...

I suppose I could use a stingray rider fon master on pegasus, or even beastmaster on manticore... Yes it's a bit of a pity they don't sell the riders seperately! Perhaps I should lookout for a chaos demon player and see if we can buy them together and split the riders (for me) and the stingrays (sc...

'attractive' indeed!!

It also opens up the possibility to have an all female themed DE army.
Would be a nice project!

That sorceress seriously is one of the prettiest models I've ever seen!!!

I wonder how she will turn out once she's cast!!

By the way, you can still pledge via paypal until the end of april.

There may even be an additional Stretch Goal be unlocked if we get enough additional pledges ...

What's on everyone's list now we know what has been unlocked? Well, mostly troopers: - What Dark Elves is concerned some Cold One equivalents (even though I already have a lot but I just love the fluff) and some troops (3-5 boxes) that I will choose from once more renders get available. It's going ...

Disappointing to see the pledge amount dropping, I was hoping for at least the Peg witch to be unlocked. Got so close and now $10k seems to have dropped out and the amount is yoyo'ing a few k short. Perhaps some people are jumping to paypal? .. I don' t really see reason why one would that, though ...

Well, you do not have to abandon your reward when rising your pledge. As far as I understand it, if you spend, say, 500 dollars with an early bird lieutenant pledge that costs 160, you will be able to purchase for what the lieutenant box is offering - that is 175 - plus anything that was not spent ...

Only 24 hours left, it's time to pledge if you want some cool minis. I cant wait to see how much gets unlocked. I have a far too comfortable early bird .. upgrading would seriously hurt that! Btw: the DE Sorceress isn't even unlocked! While I would think it would be one of the most popular choices ..

@ Teowulff: Last kickstarter, the alternative heads were usually unarmoured heads with hair so I suppose we can assume this in this case, too. It appears you're right, I received this message from RH: Hi Teowulf, Thank you for contacting us . There will always a choice of heads with or without helm...

Hmm, so I must say I quite like what I've seen. Probably my biggest concern is that the concept art is a little 'sketchy', if you know what I mean? I wonder how well that will translate to actual model details. Take the head gear on this last mini above, for example. Its crazy over the top and the ...

Really looking forward to the cold one renders, they look pretty promising!!

Not really. Ten GW spearmen cost 20 pounds which equals to about 33 dollars. 10 RH spearelves are 31 dollars. Ten GW sisters of slaughter cost 35 pounds or 59 dollars. Ten RH spearelves would be a good alternative for them. Ten GW black guards or executioners: 30 pounds, 50 dollars. Ten RH equivale...

They mentioned somewhere they were planning crossbows at some point, so maybe they will appear as later stretch goals or as weapon options for some troops? Apparently there's alternative crossbow weapons for the Sisters so they're also usable in a fantasy setting. Actually, the first freebie is one...

$200 for a cauldron .. you guys really have way too much money!

I find it hard to decide though, as almost all the models are still just concept art and they don't really resemble how the minis will actually look, if you look at the renders.

Purist or does anything go!? I think it's up to you.
Personally I have some very standard units but also some units with minis from 3 or 4 different editions (that I often call militia). If you paint them a bit in the same scheme the differences get a lot smaller, though.

Very good paintjob, you have some very good skills with lightning and things, the witches for example are extremely well done!! Also planning to paint my DE army a bright (fiery) red - so I'm very interested in how you're doing stuff .. Only thing I like less is the red weapons, but that's personal ...

The post is almost 3 years old ...

As for the model, before you go and buy the Chaos Lord on Manticore of the GW site. m There is also a rather neat model on the raging hero site. m When I will be getting a manticore model, I am highly leaning toward the Raging Hero one, just because it is different. I agree the Raging Heroes versio...

Happy to see that I'm not the only one still waiting for my witches ...
I'm glad I at least have some ~25 old/new/Raging Heroes versions to work with in the meantime ..

I really like the stripes on the cold ones and hydra, you don't see that very often and you managed to do it quite well!
