I think the character is also mentioned in the first novel of the Sigmar series when he is uniting the tribes and travels to Middenheim.

One of my favourite conversions...

General on Foot








I can just see this guy as Karl Franz on foot(maybe houserule the shield?) leading a 30+ unit of Greatswords; or you could houserule Greatswords to have hand weapons and shields instead and use the old Foot Reiksguard figures?

My general:


Where is this guy's Griffon from?  :? :?

Oh my gosh.  I have waaay too many to post here, so I'll just post my mounted BSB.  The rest are on my own Empire thread.

The Burgomeister with his simian 'bodyguard' who attacks from below, his cherubiam 'bodyguard' who attacks from above and his pet owl.

The Burgomeister is great but the "simian friend" steals the show! I love the idea of giving him a shield and "tail sword"! I might have to include him in one of my units!

My army general, Martin Von Welf. Made using some salvageable parts from a badly miscast Marius Leitdorf as well as some other random bits!

Nice conversion. Looks like Empire commander with Halberd replaced with Runefang and head replaced with Nuln armoured gunner, all from Forgeworld except the Runefang which is from the General kit.

That's not a 'fang. They have a little spiral rune on the quillons.

@silvafish: What's Viktor Kohler converted from?

The Forgeworld Empire Commander with a different weapon and head.

@Sooner Sox: Which Inquisitor is that?

That is a conversion from the inquisitor with inferno pistol and power sword. Basically just requires a lot of cutting and scraping with an Xacto knife.

And the one thing all of these generals have in common, they are all toughness 3  :-P

But seriously though some of these are really cool.
