There are two guys from back in the Mordheim days.

One has a ponytail and a rapier. He is lunging forward in an (roughly) Olympic fencing position. The other is big guy with a hammer.

They are almost like a Mordheim version of Asterix and Obelix (at least in my eyes.)

Does anyone know their names?

Thanks!

I love that you know that just from a description!

Was it my Asterix and Obelix comparison that did it?

Probably the incessantly leafing through GW catalogues, which burns the images of all those minis in one's memory, never to be removed...

I know; I've done the same back when, and I still have all those ranges virtually completely memorized

Comsquare beat me to it, although admittedly, I would have only been able to give you their first names...

Yes, it was

Honestly, Iplayed a LOT of Mordheim games back in those days, so it was not that difficult.
Ulli and Marquand had some comic strips as well, so even more recognizable

I always envisioned them as the GW equivalents Fritz Leiber's Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser myself actually...

Why did Mordheim go out of style? Was it unsuccessful after some time?

I just discovered it a year or two ago. I love the characters and the modelling options of making a city.

I've tried kitbashing some characters from the Empire militia and swordsmen. They turn out alright but they are less unique than the Mordheim ones.
