Hey, everyone! Been quite a while since I posted here.

I recently had a wave of inspiration to convert Warcry warbands into Mordheim warbands (in particular, the undivided Chaos tribes.) Warning: they are Untested.

I posted the files themselves on my old webpage, but here are the descriptions:

Iron Golems - Brawny warsmiths. Pros: Strong Weapons, Cheap Armor, Ogre Henchman! Cons: Expensive, 4 Starting Heroes. Inspiration: Dwarf Treasure Hunters.

Splintered Fangs - Snake-themed gladiators. Pros: Free poison, Cold-blooded Lots of Parries and Striking First. Cons: Low Stats (for Chaos), Limited Missiles, Low LD henchmen. Inspiration: Pit Fighters, Lizardmen.

Scions of Flame - Flame-themed fantatics. Pros: High Strength henchmen, setting opponents on fire, can be built for combat OR range. Cons: Mostly human stats, limited armor. Inspiration: Witch Hunters.

The Unmade - Sadistic self-mutilating Cannibals. Pros: Powerful leader, fast recovery, causing fear. Cons: Limited range, restrictive item combos. Inspiration: Undead.

Cypher Lords - Cryptic lords of misdirection. Pros: Fast movement, bonus range for thrown weapons, powerful spellcaster. Cons: Weaker stats, No Long Range. Inspiration: Possessed, Skaven.

Corvus Cabal - Roof-top climbing Cutthroats. Pros: Fast movement, strong champions, versatile builds. Cons: Low Leadership, No Long-range missiles. v0.3 Inspiration: Skaven, Pirates. + Bonus Sartosa rules!

Also, if you I did not make conversion for two chaos warbands:

Untamed Beasts: already have Chaos Marauders

Spire Tyrants: Already have Pit Fighters.

thanks for sharing that Styro ... looking good.

the figures (well some them) do appeal - so great to have some stats for them.

These look fun. Sodenote, the Corvus Cabal wings have two different wing costs. They have 25/40/75/180 at the top and 25/40/100/250 at the bottom. Which is correct?

I shared the answer on facebook for Ezra, but in case anyone is interested; the answer is that the starting cost is discounted, with the full price for later in the campaign.

(Of course, a few places in OTHER warbands, the prices are incorrect. Will have to fix that after playtesting).

Taking a quick look these seem pretty cool! The Warcry miniatures are lovely, & very characterful for Mordheim, so I've seen plenty adapted for Mordheim warbands -- but making them directly compatible is something else. & might just get a few Warcry players to try out Mordheim too... Great stuff!
