THE LEAD PAINTERS LEAGUE 11 - THE RULES

[Captain Blood]

For the big brother/little brother - is the current Genestealer Patriarch sufficiently larger than his lesser brethren? I was going to use it as an excuse to get going on my new age Cultists....

I don't know the models in question, but on a quick look on the GW online store, the big genestealer thing looks quite a bit bigger than the regular genestealers, but without seeing them side by side, it's impossible for me to tell if it's at least twice the size... But it looks probable.

[Orctrader]

'Cave tribes' seem plausible. I guess they may have been more extended family groups than tribes, but tribes of cave people feel like they qualify.


The easiest thing of course, would be if we all just stuck to the obvious tribes which we all know. But I guess that wouldn't be quite such a challenge  

Change of plan.  So there is no doubt I'm going to opt for figures that actually have "tribesmen" in the description - just discovered in the pile.     Of course, the soon-to-be converted cave women can appear in another round.

Hey all,

For the big/little theme, would something like Minerva, the Goddess of War in Rome and a number of Roman Legionary Warriors count as in theme? This was a theme I did some time ago for some fantasy-historical mash ups! I'd love to do something similar to this and be on theme!



Thanks

Roman God/Goddess of War with Roman soldiers. I would say that's on theme, yes.

Two questions concerning round 1 and 10 themes.

Round 1: If I understand right Native Americans are acceptable, so this girl accompanied by this four is ok?

Round 10: A Kurnoth Hunter is big enough compared to Dryads for this round? Here is a side-by-side pic of the two.

Thanks

Yes, and yes

Yes, and yes 

Great, thanks! Now I just have to paint them...

So that make most "Gods and Mortals" figures sets OK for round 10?

I don't know what those are, sorry. Link me to an example and I'll let you know.

Yes, I would say so. Big 'God' miniature, plus regular sized miniatures from the same culture or setting. Seems to fit the theme...

Would Freebooters' Fate Amazons counts as Tribeswomen?

Hey again,

Would lizardfolk fall into the tribal category?

Also, Skythians? Wikipedia refers to them as being separated in terms of tribes

Thanks

Amazons were, I believe, a tribal culture in mythology, so I would say primitive style amazons, yes.

Scythians as in ancient Black Sea / steppe  horse tribes? Yes.

Games Workshop Lizardmen? No, I don't think so, unless you can point me towards something in some codex or other that says they live in tribes.
