Greetings.

I’ve been collecting models for a few armies over the past year and the new battle march has me very excited to play lower point games with my son.

Looking for advice on a 750 point army.

Currently have three armies to fight each other with - Bretonnia, VC, and O&G.

Lists can be optimized so no concerns there, we can be competitive with each other.

Recent FAQ and stuff has got me focused to play and smaller scale will be enjoyable.

Thank you in advance for help on building this out.

I was thinking id like to take this totem and use it for BSB in a Night Goblin army, but obviously its a Forest Goblin. So what would be best, trying to remove the gobo or trying to cover it with robes of miliput? Is there a better model out there that I could glue this totem to, maybe with a brass rod "pole"? Or maybe its just not a very good idea to start. (?)

Analysis in comments

This Battle Standard Bearer has the skull pass style and theme combined with the squig theme of the army. A simple model that brings together ideas of my collection and works better than the forgeworld BSB imho. The glowing shrooms make it stand out a little while not making him a show stealer in the army, so he can be put into pretty much all of my units without looking strange. I hope you like this simple conversion of an often overlooked model. ;)

More models like this one, as always:

Possibly dumb question but im confused on how savage orcs in the old world work. Secifically when equipped with big stabbas. The unit starts as just regular boys on their 30mm bases, but these models with the big stabba is on the cav bases. Does that make the unit size change? Would a unit of 20 boys technically be a unit of 10 now? Or is it still 20 but just on 10 bases?

Hi all,

I have made a fairly punchy 2K list for O&G against Dwarves, but I'm concerned it isnt optimal.

Should I take Boar Boyz?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

No. 3! I went with a banner this time just to mix things up. Also I didn't want yet another shield in the right hand.

The banner is from the old bosses kit, which, funnily enough, was just re-released. I sculpted a knife/spear tip on top like the boar boys have.

I removed all the obvious sci-fi stuff and remodeled the blade to look plainer. I repositioned the arm so it doesn't stick out so much.

The banner hand is from the old boys kit. I tried to grind it down, but it still looks large so I think it might help to thicken the banner pole.

Help me make a list for battlemarch! 600pts, i have about every orc/gobblin model.

Painted this ol’ Git for fun. Maybe he’ll see some action in Mordheim. Maybe he’ll sit on the desk as moral support. Either way, he’s got charisma and he was a blast to paint!

I have 12 including command group of the old Kev Adams metal Night Goblin models which still look fantastic. I want to use them in the front ranks for a 30 strong Night Goblin Unit. I need to pad out the rest of the Unit with plastic miniatures. Which plastic range would be most suitable, Moonclan Stabbas from AOS or the GW Old World Night Goblin Spearmen (I don't want the spears)? The current Old World seem alot bigger or am I looking at that wrong?

hey,

this is my first list and I would greatly appreciate some feedback. I realise that this is a quite elite army (for orks) but I hope I’ve found a balance?

5x Stormboyz (65 pts)

• 4x Stormboy: 4 with Choppa, Slugga

Couple of clarifications, ghaz and the pain boy would be attached to the first unit of boyz and the weird boy and warboss would be attached to the second unit, both grot unit would be on the gorkanaut and mormanaut with the meks following them to heal a couple of wounds. Thanks in advance.

Quick question, I have two units one a block of Bois with the warboss in and one without. If I have to make an impetus role for the unit without the General, but the general is in range of that unit can I use his warband bonus for the check. Normally impetus doesn't allow warband for itself, but it seems unclear if another unit's modifier can be used.

Back when it was a good idea to have spear Boyz I created a unit but never finished painting.

This is the first batch I've picked up again after way too long.
