Looks great!!

Are you really going the mount him on that base though, shouldn't an ordinary cavalry base suit him better in an Empire army..?

Siberius · « **Reply #1678 on:** January 15, 2012, 03:52:54 PM »

What it is lacking is a mean looking dog on the other half of that base. That is what I see there. Then it will kinda be like a unit filler too when he goes with knights.

like it. Two criticism, one is that horses don't have eyes like humans.

I also think that as a general he should have a little more detail on him, especially the cloak. Such a stand out model needs a little more work.

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1680 on:** January 15, 2012, 09:00:20 PM »

ai all good,

the model actually doesn't ahve much to it, after teh armour and fur, there isn't much to paint, no trinkets or objects, decals etc,

quite dull,

i kept it plain basically, the robe also, just blue ,

onwards to new ventures !

I have tried painting horse eyes like that, but they usually end up looking like a black dot. Making them look a bit more like a human eye helps to differentiate the eye from the rest of the face, IMO. If anyone asks, just say, 'hey, its fantasy!'

well you have taken a simple model and made it look very good!! good job

I did the same thing with my one of those!

Then later I think I changed the halberd for another sword.

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1685 on:** January 16, 2012, 12:13:04 PM »

Rank and file now!

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1686 on:** January 16, 2012, 02:04:12 PM »

Finished my 30 man Halberd Bus, in Purple and Yellow!

Forwarrrrrd !!

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1687 on:** January 16, 2012, 02:15:09 PM »

Zooom!

Puffy enough for about anyone I would guess

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #1689 on:** January 16, 2012, 03:10:07 PM »

Good grief, it seems as though you are churning these out absurdly quickly!

Purple and yellow rules.

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1690 on:** January 16, 2012, 03:18:20 PM »

I have a game vs Chaos, 4th Feb

4K pts,

and I am eager to roll out 150 Halberds , 2 units of 75, each with a WP,

alongside with 40 greatswords and 30 Crazies,

for the ultimate lesson in empire numerical troop pain!

needs must

sleepings cheating !

Erik Von Karlson · « **Reply #1691 on:** January 16, 2012, 03:23:53 PM »

Wow, nice unit!

And I like like the archaon conversion, simple and effective!

Looking forward to seeing pictures of the game too!

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1692 on:** January 16, 2012, 03:41:30 PM »

This is what I plan to go with .. lol

7 Artillery pieces , some scout and vanguard distractors, and a solid troop base, plus flaggie trap ,

hoping that the opponent will be forced to advance on me,

HBVG's protect the flanks and War machines with 1 engy each ,,,,,

the Walter and Genesus smash the enemy on the centre left, and can deal with anything given my loadout.

The army can handle monsters, elites, large hordes, characters and fast movers

Hoodling · « **Reply #1693 on:** January 16, 2012, 09:51:11 PM »

I can't help but approve of a plan involving 2 units of 75 Halberdiers.

I trust you will take plenty of pics...

Orcslayer · « **Reply #1694 on:** January 17, 2012, 04:32:14 AM »

Whenever I put Volley guns on my flanks my opponents always put their juicy targets away from them, so I try to avoid that. Best of luck though, and pics or it didn't happen

arselus · « **Reply #1695 on:** January 17, 2012, 05:49:45 AM »

I like the symmetrical (or semi-symmetrical) approach, it might distract your opponent if they were hoping to deploy against a "main" strength, I think I will try it next time. I've been away for a while, what is the Genesus business? It sounds like a general on a Pegasus. Is there a particular item combination that makes him awesome?

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1696 on:** January 17, 2012, 07:10:04 AM »

Genesus   (gen on peg)   130
FPA + Sh      15
Holy Relic      45
Sw of Power      40

=====================

I use him to get in for a scrum!

He can tie up enemies,

2+ save + 4 + ward and St 6 ,

mr chumley warner · « **Reply #1697 on:** January 17, 2012, 07:13:30 AM »

I'm hoping that the pistoliers and huntsmen will provide enough distractions to see some enemy units detract from the main force or get held up for a few turns .

Giving me a chance to pound them more with artillery.

The Walter, Genesus , and Greatswords move forward and engage key targets

ideally hordes of 100 Goblins etc, which they can work through in time,

the heavy duty Orc's in units like 50 off will be softened with multiple artillery , and then crazied/halberded / magic attacked,

leaving the cannon+ hbvg's to eat monsters,

the VHS on Walter will pick out and eat enemy characters

Ever thought about adding Reaper minis to your already fantastic array of Models noone ever has seen on a tabletop?
