Title: Shamblers in SA
Post by: Sheerluck Holmes on June 13, 2010, 01:35:56 AM: A question was asked in this topic: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=15394.msg183881#msg183881 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=15394.msg183881#msg183881)

but it was never answered. Are Shamblers the same type of thing as Dimensional Shamblers in CoC?

I have a couple of these minis and want to know if I can use them as Shamblers.

Cheers.

They are more or less the same thing, though the eventual "official" figure will be quite a bit beefier. Truthfully, use whatever you want though. If you think it looks like a Shambler, it's a Shambler!

Many thanks jnr - not having to pay the huge exchange rates and postage from RAFM will save a bit of sanity

Any rotting/mossy/alien/apeish thing that you can find really...we purposefully kept the catagories vague to allow players to have the greatest possible choice when building the lurkers...and 'cause vagueness is scary!!! ;)

That's friggin' brilliant! I need one of those!

I have a Stormrage Shambler (prepaint thing) I got from a nice guy in Sweden in exchange for some plastic shields and a couple of 80's GW haflings. He probably got most value in Ebay terms, but I got a Shambler :D (he offered me money on top of the deal, but I dedclined it - am happy to barter)

He comes in the Zoirida boxed set and her and the Slurids make a great Witch and Familiars as well

I picked her specifically since the Slurids would fit in with the other fishy minis I have. Not Deep Ones per se (at least for me) but certainly visually similar.
