Hey =D

Me and my brothers used to buy warhammer alot, but my brothers both quited, and gave me all their warhammer.. so I have alot of bits which I properbly ain't gonna use.. so if anyone needs bits, ask for something, i'll make some pictures, choose whatever you want, and i'll send it by mail =D (atleast, if my parents think it's okay...)
but well, I've got alot of other stuff too, i mean, special models and stuff, never used, maybe painted black.. so if you need anything, just ask

Great offer, but never say you don't need bits

Most of the stuff lies in your bitsbox for two, three, four or even six years before you use it.
Believe me

but seriously, i have really, really, really much, so if you need something, they are yours !

Wow! What a wonderful offer!

Personally I am always on the hunt for little bags and pockets. I just ran out of rucksacks (from the bonus sprue in the Mordheim box) which I am using as bags for my marauder models. And one of my Stage Coach draft horses lost its tail

so you'd need a horse tail and some bags?

Hi Matt!

First let me say that your offer is incredibly generous. But I agree 100% with Erkwin, do NOT underestimate the value of "bits you don't use".

Take me for example. I used to play WH and WH40k when I was about 14. I played wood elves, orcs, space marines and eldar. One day, I took part in a mini painting competition for "youngbloods" at a GW store (it was in Brussels actually). And I won 3rd place or something. Do you know what the 3rd price was? It was 200g (I think) of "bits".

They had those huge containers litterally full of bits (mostly metal at that time) and I was allowed to plunge my hands into it and grab as much as I wanted.

When I got home, I looked at my new treasure, and I found some good stuff in it (for example the female Reiklander youngblood that Tortiou uses now). But there were also loads of "useless" pieces, i.e. heads from very very very old tyranids. What the hell do I do with that I thought.

I stopped warhammer in 1999-2000, but as you know picked up mordheim in 2006.
And guess what bits came in VERY handy? Those ugly tyranid heads!

Here's a pic: can you spot them?

yeah, i know i can use them too, but well, I properbly don't need as much as i have now.. and I just wanted to share

That is very nice of you Matt! I didn't mean to patronise you. I know that you know what you're doing

If you have some to spare. As the others already said: don't underestimate their value. Also I'd like to give you something back but I just don't know what!?

Sorry, I can't find bags or something :\

But i have found a horse tail tough, i'll be looking for the camera, and after that, i'll post a picture =D

(it's already black, does that matter?)

@ Cianty: I actually made moulds from silicone rubber, so that I can cast mordheim bags with plaster. So I can now produce as many as I want...

When I get back home I could make some for you. How many do you need? 100? 200?

(please consider that it still takes time, so I can do 15 or so. Making 100 can be done but is a pain.)

Et le photo's:




<edit>(it's only the tail, unless you want to have the horse too)

OH - MY - GOD! That's insane!!! We're talking of Mordheim warbands - not entire Warhammer regiments so a few would be great and sufficient. Sick, dude!


@Matt: Yeah, that's the kind of tail I'd need. I forgot to put thm on my last mail order and it's getting really expensive when all you need is one damn tail!

give me everything I need to know, and the Tail is there in less then two weeks :3

@ Cianty: kk mate! Just PM your adress and how many you want and I will see to it that you get them at the end of january.

So i heard my idea of giving bits, which you have a thousand times, away isn't really liked by certain people..
well, Is trading Bits better? if so, I want to trade alot of bits

You guys are wonderful! *insert kissing smiley here*

You sure need to get rid of them, do you? Ha ha! I'll PM you...

Hey! This is what Tom's Boring Mordheim Forum is all about! It's about helping each other enjoying the hobby in any way possible!

And what's a 1,50€ postage fee if it helps you finish a great warband?

And besides, I'm sure you'd do the same for us? Ain't it?

yeah, well, my parents don't really like me buying new Warhammer while that big box is almost exploding of bits..

Now that's cool.
Could you by chance do some bags for me as well, Tom? I just ordered a few minis for an outlaw warband and some aditional pockets and bags would look very cool.

I hope this does not seem rude, if you have no time that's ok for me.

Haha, I know this very well from my parents("Why do you have to buy new figures? Look at the masses of unpainted ones you have!" )

Actually, noone tries to stop your noble action, I think we are all very pleased about this offer, but I personally would have a small feeling of guilt by exepting it
Trading bits sounds better to me.

THATS A LOT BETTER:P.. maybe i will trade some converting to your.. bits

Erkwin is right! No one dislikes your idea of giving away bits! On the contrary, that is extremely generous of you. I just wanted to prevent you form regreting it later.

And your idea of opening a "Trade section" is fantastic! Good job Matt!

(I might move it around a bit and give it a new title to make it easier to find for people who might not have been following since the beginning, if that's OK with you).

The Trading section is a great idea
