How about wolfmen or werewolves with swords and shields and chain shirts? They could double as some of the beastmen for a chaos army

p.s could also double as the gnolls some people in the main fantasy requests thread asked for - on 10mm scale a gnoll and an armoured and armed werewolf are going to look pretty much the same

You're absolutely right on both points...I'm in  8)

not only could they be good beast men and gnolls, but for a fantasy viking army,they could be ulfenwerner! support

that was my idea from the start Kovac - just didn't use the word to avoid Games Workshop lawsuits  ;) I don't really mind whether they're modelled as armoured and armed gnolls or wolf headed beastmen in arms and armour - it'll all look the same in 10 mil scale

aye, your right, we must do all things to keep GW from stepping on pendraken. and they would do it to. I just dont like them as a company. if pendraken is whats a called sportsmen-like business, than GW is a power-seller.

GW write good rules and really good background and worlds for their games. Their prices started going a bit crazy after 1984 though and have become ridiculous today. They now charge more for plastic figures than they used to charge for metal ones (saw one figure one of my friends had bought at £9.50 for a single human on foot)

I loved most of the pre-slotta Citadel figures but most of their slotta based ones are very poor and cartoon like (i'm pretty sure this was so 12 year olds could paint them more easily). A minority of their slotta based figures have been very nice figures too, but the majority are terrible.

KOVAV

Their rules and background are the only profit they shall be getting from me! even their 10mm is overpirced! it costs about 4 to 6 times as much as pendrakens. as for their 28mm, It is stupid. I willl never, ever in a million years, buy an army of figures that cost me 4 or more dollars a pop when I could get others for so much less.

i think people have begun to forget the importance of armoured werewolves/wolfmen/gnolls

I'd probably find a use for them in my hill dwarf army, speaking of which when are we gonna get some proper bear-riding dwarf cavalry. You know I'm looking at you Clib.

Something like :


I'm afraid it is "real" 10 mm again so not really compatible with pendraken dwarves.  :-\

I'm not bothered that it's real 10mm put me down for some of those - the detail in that is fantastic.  :D

Is there an embossed design on the axe?
