MODheim Warbands

Very cool! I like that sorceress!

I wrote a little fluff.. i'm not good at it.

“So I was down at the old markets, where the traders set-up these days, and I saw someone new, seems Mordheim has attracted yet another soul”
“This one was completely sheathed in her robes like she was trying to hide somet’in, She called ‘erself Emissary, fancy name if yer ask me”.
“She was hidden most of the time but she seemed to have a crown of thorns or some such, brown skin with some tattooed lines or summit over her skin and she was TALL”.
“I’d swear she had a fake leg too, some drunk knocked into her and she barely moved buy she just caught a stall and it sounded like wood on wood!”
“She’s from some place called “Bleakwood” or summit, yeh, yeah “Emissary of Bleakwood”, that’s got ta be a mark worth your coin fer the info right?”


Update on the painting so far - more on the blog.

The fluff turned out almost as nicely as the miniatures; AND they are BEAUTIES. VERY WELL DONE once more!

Ooh, cool bit of fluff there -- just the sort of snippet that would once have accompanied a White Dwarf article... Also interesting to hear they're emissaries into Mordheim. Nice bit of narrative there, for some grand miniatures.

Any intention for how they'll play as a warband? Are you using new rules, or proxying something else?

The leader is an emissary but she was not destined for Mordheim, that is just where they ended up due to circumstances beyond their control.

I intended to use beastmen, wasn't any point in inventing anything new, beastmen raiders fit pretty well for Dryads and their low leadership can be an indication of being somewhere non-wooded. Mutations van either be extra growth or Sprites and spells can be renamed as sprites again or just other suitable spell names.

Beastmen makes a lot of sense to me (& comes with a little smugness, because that was my own guess). I look forward to seeing whatever progress you make!
