I've been on the look out for a small project to keep me busy for a weeks, so I've rolled up a Chaos Warband using the 1991 Book Lost and the Damned. I did fudge my Champion rolls a little and choose a Female Human rather then a random roll on the chart though, who cares though what matters is I'm going to enjoy making every second of this project.
So my rolls:
Zanna: Champion of Malal - Human Female level 15
Heavy Armour, shield, Mark of Malal (Undivided)
Chaos Gift: 64-69 Strength +3
526-535 Irrational Hatred
As already stated I choose my race/gender & level, thats because I already had Kalee from Hasslefree to use. Perfect don't you think?
(http://www.hfminis.co.uk/img_cms/product_images/h017web.jpg)
39-41 Chaos Warrior
4-5 Chaos Marauder
Mark of Malal (Undivided)
846-850 Spits Acid
476-480 Horrible Steench
Chaos Gift: Chaos Armour
Up next turned out to be a Chaos Warrior with the stats of a Marauder. He got Chaos Armour from his Undivided Mark and both a Strange smell and a bad spitting problem.

92-93 Troll
221-215 Breaths Fire
261-270 Cloud of Flies
Ohhh I rolled a Troll! Crap! now I've got to paint one *Grumbles* Hmmm time to use my Reaper Bones Troll I had shitting around for awhile!

54-60 - 2d4 Brigands (7)
Brigand Hero Level 5
Yay humans, this gave me an excuse to spend some money at Forlorn Hope games and buy a bunch of Barbarians. I was planning on getting some anyway. Not bad 8 (Including the Chaos Warrior) cost me £12 with free shipping.

So next stage painting the warband..
-
Looks like a good little project, now get daubing! :D
-
Should be good painting up a random collection of figures from 3 separate companies and see how the gel.
-
So the first 2 of my Warband have been cleaned & based and of course some minor converting.
Zanna: Champion of Malal
Zanna was born in the Crow Eaters a tribe famous for their disfigurements and the worship of the God Nurgle. Zanna being born beautiful was therefore a disappointment to the tribal elders who had her outcast to the wastes. Zanna cries of despair was heard by Malal the Renegade God, the true outcast and Father of revenge. Malal gifted her with great strength and fuelled her burning hatred as she slew in his name.

Sludge: Chaos Troll
Sludge started his life wandering the border of the Troll Country and Kislev, he led a simple life of eating, killing, sleeping and more killing. Until one fateful night he slew a black and white clad knight bearing a glowing obsidian sword, drawn to the sword and hearing whispers of power Sludge took it and has since then been slowly changing. Sludge is now almost albino as the sword slowly takes over his brain his body is reflecting that change by becoming more white the chosen colour of Malal

So that's the first 2 preped and ready for the primer, quite looking forward to painting these.

COOL STUFF! The Troll looks much better with his new sword & the Hasslefree Babe is BEAUTIFUL. You are off to a FINE start on your War Band.
-
Finished the Troll, not a bad figure to paint and took the primer (To be fair all my Bones figures have taken primer well)

Warband Leader finished.. yup I've been a busy boy.

The complete Warband so far with just 5 more Barbarians and 1 Chaos Warrior left too paint.
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DZfpxI1TRn0/Uxs3b_O19OI/AAAAAAAABZk/BcNqaoEqZHM/s1600/DSCF0074.JPG)
The Brigands are a group of Barbarians from the 4 corners of the frozen wastes lead by Dargoth they now follow Zanna in her worship of Malal.
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mm0v5MV0Fzc/Uxs3bq4775I/AAAAAAAABZs/Tx_9_0Cmr3g/s1600/DSCF0099.JPG)
Dargoth hails from the southern Chaos Wastes and journeys far for the sake of slaughter and revenge. He leads his band of cut-throats and Berserkers with an iron fist. Not onc has he been challenged for his postion such is his hold over those who follow him.

Gar is a frothing Berserker who has only goal and that is to slay in the name of any deity, for he cares not what God listens only that they do
-
Looking good. Can't wait to see the whole warband finished. I've got that Hasslefree chick too. Mine's painted up as a champion of Tzeentch. Part of a six figure warband of nekkid (ish) Hasslefree chaos chicks. :D
-
Thanks everyone,
Small update:
(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XMlfgHLuikE/UxxjezQIV5I/AAAAAAAABaQ/agNHapq17Ls/s1600/DSCF0121.JPG)
2 new warband members:
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IfiuLNmZOe8/UxxjezlpBNI/AAAAAAAABaI/Bwg03_X1-kQ/s1600/DSCF0107.JPG)
Marz is far along the road to damnation/Godhood but little is indeed known of the warrior. A able bodied fighter and quick of mind it is of wonder why he doesn't lead his own Warband. Zanna knowns why for it is her leash in which she controls Marz.
Sever is the son of Gar but has already started the road of the Beserker, his axe has claimed many a head in the name of Malal.

The Barbarian Guys, Babe, & Whatever are LOOKIN' GOOD...GREAT WORK!
-
That's a nice looking warband you are creating there. I like the back stories you have given each character.

Thanks, It's good fun working on these but peoples nice comments is always a welcome boon.

Thanks, Its the added extras which makes making a Lost and the Damned warbands so fun. I'd recommend it to everyone who fancies a laugh and has limited wargaming time/space.

Just a quick post just to let you know I'm still been slowly working on this Warband with 2 more fully painted and 2 others having a minor repaint (Orange hair on the Berserker clashed too much).
Just 2 more left to paint and I can then move on to the army on full.. Yup that's right a fully playable 2k WhFB3 (Oldhammer) Malal Chaos Army, to go with my Undead and Dark Elves.
Highlights include Ral Partha Beastmen, large units of Barbarians (With a mix of ranges including Ral Partha/Grenadier/Hasslefree). A unit of Reaper Bones ''Trolls'' (Well it's a mix of monsters).
-
They look great!
-
Thankies all, The Warband is now finished (Minus a bit of fluff for the cannon fodder ;) ) Now I just have to buy and paint the bloody army...
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GSrF_RXslH8/UyHq_txehpI/AAAAAAAABbg/WpbxH0l9IlU/s1600/DSCF0188.JPG)

Good job. A nice warband you have put together there. I would gladly give you a game but alas we are in different countries.
-
That gang really came together well. Nice.
-
Badass! I need to download myself a copy of RCLaTD
-
Nice warband, Chico.
Those figures blend really well together with your colour scheme.
:-* :-*
Excellent choice, using that figure as the leader.
A real Mrs K. Daark.

Thanks everyone, It's really fun to have a bash at doing. Plus everything cost me a total of £18 so nice and cheap :)
Started preparing a bunch of other toys too turn it into a playable WhFB 3rd Ed army.
A few packages have been turning up which I have hidden from the Wife, but as most bits are Grenadier and Ral Partha (A few Hasslefree/Reaper/other thrown in) everything should come to under £100.
-
Superb effort and result. :-*
-
Awesome end result Chico. I love how bestial the guy on the far right looks. The troll turned out beautifully too. Inspired me to finish a Beastmen warband I've been working on, on/off, for about 4 years So cheers. :D
-
Thanks again everyone.
So with the actual Warband finished I decided to make it a full WhFB3 2k force. Heres the first few done: Shaman, Standard, 2 Barbarian Thugs.

Ral Partha Reaver & Grenadier Barbarian

Grenadier Barbarian Shaman & Standard
I think I'll start some Female Ral Partha Barbarians next or maybe some Beastmen. So much fun stuff to choose from.
-
Finished a few more bits:
4 Grenadier Evil Foot Knights aka Chaos Warriors.
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vl51v4Kx8gw/UycBSHVU2OI/AAAAAAAABcc/kEmSJIoerQY/s1600/DSCF0212.JPG)
The following list is what I have completed:
Zanna
Shaman
10 Barbarian Thugs Inc Champion & Standard Bearer
5 Chaos Warriors
2 Trolls
Left to paint/been ordered:
20 Barbarian Thugs
5 Chaos Warriors
1 Troll (Reaper Ettin)
5 Beastmen
So plenty left to paint and I just need to work out what to buy after getting this bunch painted, Hmmm more Trolls? Chaos Goblins? Thug Cavalry? More Beastmen are a must as well.
So whatcha think?
-
looking great, love the thugs, as for what to add next, some of clam's chaos dwarfs would fit in really nice
-
GREAT LOOKING STUFF! Getting carried away with things is THE BEST part of minis & gaming with them. Have FUN with it all!

I had a friend, Tom Berg by name, whose hobby prior to getting into war gaming was finding small, often illegal drinking establishments & meeting the interesting females that frequented them. Coming home somewhat the worse for wear was placing some strain on his marital relationship. His wife viewed toy soldiers as The Thing that saved their marriage. It beats counselors & divorce lawyers.
-
Dig the C dwarf army, and i say add more beast men, mounted thugs.
-
So I'm now into day 5 of having no working TV (And slow internet connection) so I've been busy painting. So another 6 Malal Thugs/Barbarians painted.

Grenadier Barbarians & a Ral Partha Tyrant
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xwbpn5OkOck/UyxWl34hyeI/AAAAAAAABdA/kCRfcGsCNcQ/s1600/DSCF0255.JPG)
3 Grenadier Barbarians
Nothing too fancy, just plain rank and file troops, might treat myself to Dark Eye figures next.
-
Chico, you might be interested to learn that Midlam Minis will add the old Metal Magic barbarians to their catalogue very soon... =) Great minis that mix well with copplestone's grenadier stuff. Some of them are a wee bit on the small side in comparison to the most muscular heroes of Copplestone's but it's no big deal. All in all they mix well. I can get you a few comparison pics if you'd like.
Cool additions to the force, btw. Really like them!

Ohhhh hopefully they will be the C1004 Northern Barbarians as I've wanted some of those for awhile. Ta :)

Afraid not... I don't know about anyone owning or producing any of the old codes. =/ The ones at Midlam will be the "new" C1004:
