Prof's Horrors (upd.15.05) - The Bedlam Brotherhood

[Prof.Witchheimer]

A few weeks ago after reading of another inspirational Jet&Tenz "Chaos in Carpathia" battle report; I've purchased the PDF version of the rules and started reading. Actually I've played CiC vs. Tom (Mike D. Mc Brice) already but as usual I didn't really know the rules, just did all that what Tom said Anyway, I've liked the game and now I wanted to play it again. And to read the rules this time, of course.

Actually I've collected quite a bunch of Gothic Horror figures as you can see there http://witchhunter.net/galerie_gothic_horror.html, though this time I've thought it would be a good idea to create a whole new gang. So I've decided to try it with Romanian Vampires from the Tom's list (http://www.tag-web.de/gothic-horror/carpathiawarbands.pdf).

As the gang size will be 350 GBP, I wouldn't need too many vampires, they're actually cost quite a lot. I’ve checked my lead pile and found out that I was crazy enough to buy (decades ago) all (these days available) Westwind Gothic Horror vampires. And that’s a lot, really.

Anyway, after some painting I’ve got enough to present you my new beginning on this board. Hope you like them.
Here comes my Vampire Lord (what a sculpt!) with his faithful Hunchback Servant. The hunchback is a great touch, I very like the idea of a slow-minded and crippled little guy following his master and ready to die serving him.



Another Vampire Lord, just in case I need two of them



Vampires. Not that strong as the Lord but still very dangerous creatures.



Acolytes. Or lesser Vampires. Nice way to involve all the brides into the game.



And some shots without terrain







Now I still need some Cossacks to complete the gang. They’re already on my desk. Not sure if I will manage to paint them for my first game next weekend, but if not I could still take some Foundry Cossacks.

That’s all for today. Back to painting.

Very nice Alex.

Wonderful Alex. Lovely painting on those figures, and some fine pieces of scenery (of course).

Igor here, says: please say hello to his cousin... They are almost identical twins

Outstanding!!! The painting is top notch! What line are the lesser vampires from? They look awesome.

Once you get the rules down be sure to check out Jet's secret objective cards. They add a whole new element to the game!

Cheers,

Tenz

Thanks, guys!

got them aready and will be using for sure!

I totally overlooked the Concubines. Jet runs romanians and doesn't use those models. After seeing your handy work I'm inspired to get the models and start the warband.

Glad to hear you will be using the cards. You won't be let down. Feel free to drop us a line if any questions pop up.

[Mason]

These look great, Prof!
Especially that second Vampire Lord.
That takes a spiked club to a whole new level!
 

Looking forward to the Cossacks....

[Barks]

Lovely work!

Very nice.  Can't wait to see the cossacks!

As always, TOP WORK!

Thanks for sharing your finely painted minis.

I can't wait to see how the cossacks turn out.

Best wishes.

Lovely, lovely work, Professor. It's tipped me over the edge into finally getting the CiC rules. Like you, I've found Tenz and Jet's batreps inspirational (and maddening in their quality)! Thanks for posting your work. Can't wait to see your Cossacks. (Oops, that sounded suggestive.)

[Malamute]

Good to see you back in the Gothic Horror vein Alex. 

Lovely stuff, I especially like the graveyard.

You have inspired me to dig out my figures again, now to try and organise a game between now and the New Year.

they're just gems, very easy to paint but with some great character.

Glad to hear you will be using the cards. You won't be let down. Feel free to drop us a line if any questions pop up.

I've done the warband lists for the game yesterday, now going to check the cards. Will get back to you guys for clarification if needed.

indeed..a bit odd but somehow cool at the same time

Good to hear that, Esienfaust, it's definitely a nice set or rules. Cossacks are coming, though I'm still a bit hesitate about color scheme.

Getting Nick back into Gothic Horror playing, well done me! 

[Sterling Moose]

Great job Prof!!  I have the same figures on my painting table but you seem to have bought a special edition with far more detail than mine have!

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Thank you and please do post yours as soon as finished, really look forward to see them!
