So here is my warband as a unit in the army, led by a Mighty Champion (further on the path to Chaos then an Aspiring champion and less so than an Exalted champion - 200 and 600 points respectively), my Mighty Warband is worth 400pts and the equivalent of D4+4 rewards, so about right in terms of followers from the Retinue table.
So amongst this chaotic rabble (just how it should be), you may be able to make out a Troll, a maggotty spawn, 6 Dark Elves, 4 Cultists and a Chaos Magus and Warior, an Undead Chaos champion and the mounted Mighty Champion himself. I really like the eclectic mix of models, races and characters in the same unit and one day I'll write up a backstory for this lot, how they came together and how they have fought their way along the path to damnation. The idea behind an undead chaos champion and a spawn and the path they took to get there are just too tantalising...
So there we go, a 400 point unit taking the tally so far up to 2455pts of rank and file... A hefty character will be next...
That's a chaotic rabble you wouldn't want to face. Brilliant horse conversion, just like one of the illustrations in the RoC books. I like the added foliage on the troll,s rock, nice touch. Funny to see Wormpile today, I'm painting mine right now - waiting for the carroburg crimson wash to dry.
ReplyDeleteThat horse conversion was indeed based on an illustration in the LatD! The worm pile had a load of extra individual maggots that I didn't add, way too fiddly and delicate!
Deleteoh yes, Wormpile definitely is fiddly to assemble. I used some of the maggots to add support to the arms bridging over the joins, like little nurgly sutures superglued in place for extra strength.
DeleteOnly just discovered this blog, about to jump in. If this unit is any indicator of the type of content you post then I'm hooked for life! So cool! Love the mix of different flavours all based up beautifully.
ReplyDeleteCheers! Enjoy looking through, it's become the diary of my hobby and a record of all the different ideas and projects I've expired over the years. Unfortunately a lot of the comments have now disappeared. Glad to have you here!
DeleteLove the make up of your warband and they look fab painted up too.
ReplyDeleteCheers Dai, they came out as the rabble I hoped for, even if the display tray is a bit too organised for them
