fantastic attention to the level of detail on this models, great shading technique, great work on the rocky ground, well rendered in the color scheme used for each individual wolf it gives each one a unique personality. You can feel the malevolence and evil coming from these creatures, and they look so natural they could almost be alive. Awesome work, keep it up.

Thank you, good Sir! The excellent models were a true inspiration to work on.

I do too, but even if they do not, we can still play the game. You do not actually need them to produce anything more in order to play it, and as for some rules bugs, you can always try to patch things up yourself.

still, I'd like to see some lore changed... I mean it's been a while since chaos split into diffrent factions...

But the old lore pretty much has that covered... Cultist warbands for chaos mortals (choose favourite god at will), carnival of chaos (while primarily Nurgle, can also be adapted) for Daemons, and beastmen for, well, beastmen. And the whole story of Be'lakor has already been told.

I hope so. Though, I have to say I am also happy with the way things are. Ok, Mordheim rules could use a bit of patching up, but nothing that cannot be done reasonably well and to taste by players themselves. Otherwise, the fluff is great and needs not be touched, there are plenty different official and semi-official warbands and the WHFB line basically gives us all the miniatures we need (as do other manufacturers). All in all, once you sort out the terrain, (the only tricky bit, though Worldworks could make that simple for people who do not want to make their own town and do not mind cut-out buildings) it is a quick, easy, and affordable game to get into, offering a good system for both quick one-off matches and long campaigns. And when something is not broken - avoid fixing it

true true... and I guess in the sense it's keeping to the original story of warhammer... I like the fact that this is placed during the time of the three emperors... when Marienburg was considered a Provence and Chaos was still one army... at least they didn't try to do things that would ruin the game like the previous editions...

on a related note I like the feeling of nostalgia you get from the new edition... and now that we have new armies... having an ogre tyrant ride a carpet makes me laugh...

Yup, I am quite fond of the new edition too. Have not actually played a single game, but I like the style and course the book is taking. And ok, some inconsistencies are to be expected in such a complex system, but we can avoid them with common sense, or use them for comic effect

Me too, but I first have to take the time and fully complete and paint an army to play with. I'll probably succeed till the ninth edition (I got my first WHFB armies during the sixth)

Hvala, hvala Inace volim undeadove, a zombiji i neupokojeni polu-vukovi su mi posebno dragi. Podjednaka uzivancija kao farbanje Nurglovaca.
