Thought worth posting this pic. Knightmare Miniatures vs old Harlequin orcs.

Nice job there! The old grinning goblins are cool figures and I like what you did with this one.

Great praise from someone of your calibre!

I did a video of the other night gobbos.

The night goblins are awesome! One of my regular opponents has quite a few in his collection (mostly the basic plastics rather than the Mordheim figures) and it is always fun play against that army. The goblins always look like they have some dirty tricks up their sleeves.

All about the dirty tricks. Is this AoS or proper Warhammer of some variety?

 :D lol

Yes, true! Half of the game was guessing what your opponent had up his sleeve and counter it with some dastardly combination of magic items, special abilities and Waagh magic!

I bought like a dozen goblin fanatics and painted them up, the maximum that could be hidden in my units. I left them by the side of the table for psychological factor. There was so much pause before deciding to charge my goblin spear units it was a joy to watch… till they demons/undead/dark elves/anyone demolished me. Anyway. Had fun making up some beasts of chaos. Especially this Tuskgor Chariot. Keeping an eye out on the Bazaar of Obscurities for any plastic beastmen to bulk these out.

That warthog chariot is excellent sir! I do like the magic bull miniature as well, shows Gw can still sculpt clean miniatures once in a while!

I had so much fun with the Tuskgor chariot. You can see more here. Not close in the painting queue as have only been building up Beasts of Chaos through swaps on Bazaar of Obscurities etc. Slow burn project.

Been a while since I was last in your thread, but I just wanted to stop by and compliment you on the Night Goblins, and especially on the Beastmen chariot (which looks like it should always have done!). :)

Thanks a lot. I always value your insights. I wonder if the new Beasts of Chaos book will make this faction a bit more playable and interesting.

Well, I used the old Orc plastic chariot, and then robbed some replacement boars from a set of the Savage Orc riders. The SO boars need a bit of fur sculpting on (which you can press-mould from elsewhere on the model to keep the same texture as the rest of the figure), but the lack of saddles on them is helpful. The do look a bit more savage and mutated than actual boars too, so they work well for this role.

...All that said, I still I prefer yours!  lol
