Wulfen Jaeger empire of the dead

[Steinberg]

Hi guys.

Just thought I would share a little project I started while waiting for the Empire of the Dead kickstarter to send me more than I can ever paint.

New to the forum so will have see how the images come out.

Comments welcomed

What an intro!
 

Welcome aboard, Steinberg.
That was a fantastic way to introduce yourself.

Lovely miniatures and scenery.
 


(Now be a good chap and tell me where the dogs are from...).

Hi Steinberg,

I'm a Wolfen Jaeger player myself, but I don't have the dog handlers yet. For me there are too many question marks over how they function in EotD...are they two seperate models or one...how does the handler work?

They are lovely models though, and a superb painting job on your behalf...would it be possible for you to take some photos from different angles of the two?

Welcome! Very nice I love the bases. I want to get some of these they look great!

Hello, you have some wonderfully painted figures with some fantastic scenery behind them. You'll do very well here.

The hounds are separate in the current rules. You could either get some extra hounds to represent them when unleashed.

I had though about splitting the figures and using a kind of half moon base for the hound so that you can move them together then  have them split when you want them to. I haven't looked into the base as yet but I'm sure I've seen some lurking about.

Hammers did that with washer bases when painting up a series of interwar (I think) characters all accompanied by their dog. I think he cuts the bases with a Dremel.

I've to go look now. But I though about getting some 30 x 60 lipped cavalry bases from Fenris Games cutting them in half and add magnets to each half.

Nice selection of figures and great brush work.

The problem is that the handler does not have any rules. I love the models, but I think it would be stupid to have a model with a handler and the wolfhound, but only the wolfhound has rules. I like the splitting up of the models, but what am I supposed to do with the handler once the wolfhound is split?
It would be great if the handlers had either special rules or if I could convert them to be armed.

Can't you convert them yo b armed?

That is true but then really you would need to roleplay a faction member as his role as handler.

The Supernatural Branch rules for the Infernium Hound has to remain with 8" of its Police Constable handler. Perhaps this will get changed when requiem is released.

I hope so, I would like to have some specific rules for them while they are together and perhaps individual rules when they are split.

They have long coats. Plenty of room for concealed weapons from sawn-offs to swords

@Saucy Jack what sort of rules did you have in mind? Apart from the distance they have to stay together rule. They act as normal members.
