About this deal

Let us not forget that Otto is a creature of GW and made for Warhammer Fantasy, so he is heroic scale too. Specific contents may vary depending on the edition or box set, but generally, it includes Bases for each miniature. This round was all about the bits and as much as I want to give it to GW for balance, I am giving it to Perry.

Although it does look too big and heavy to lift, it is a special weapon so it could be a prototype or something.

Some live to regret their decision, however, ending up as outlaws or criminals or joining ragtag mercenary companies, unable to escape the life of a soldier. Each of these units takes almost anything 2 turns to get through, meaning you have time to maneuver your hammers for the flank charge or whatever. Some are raised by one of the Imperial cults, ostensibly to defend the Empire, but actually to advance that cult’s political power — the rival Cults of Sigmar and Ulric are especially fond of sponsoring soldiers. State troops are generally made up of experienced soldiers, financed by city states or elector counts. Battle honours, a list of all the battles a regiment has fought, are memorised by its soldiers and often displayed on its standard.

We are a couple of Warhammer Enthusiasts, constantly looking to complete our collection while also helping other Wargamers to complete theirs. Yes, I know the Empire takes a lot of artistic style from them, but like with all things GW, the style of their armies takes from many historical sources, not just one. Overall though I really liked the kit, the models were very good and versatile enough to be turned to variety of poses if needed with the use of other components. In times of peace, troops are paid a small retainer and are expected to train in their own time, meet up a few times each year to drill, and be ready to mobilise at short notice. They are all simple men, whom have taken upon themselves to fight in the name of the Empire and its people.It is rare for troopers within a given regiment to be armoured in the same way - some might have mail, others breastplates or simple leather, whilst others may have no armour at all. These comprise Pistoliers, who are light cavalry recruited from the young sons of the landed nobility of the state, and Greatswords. Thus, every province and each city-state in the Empire has its own army which is equipped and maintained at its own expense.

They’re a group of Marienburg mercenary marines and would be perfect for my army, freeing those spare parts from their plastic framed prison. Just be careful how you prime the models, I used cryone spray paint (white) to good effect, however some of the tinyest details became muddled, probably because I lingered too long on one spot. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. I position them with their backs close to edge of the base to give as much room in front for their weapons. What I am seeing here is that the number one issue with using heroic scale alongside true scale is the bloated weapon size of the heroics.

This colour scheme translated very well to the state troopers and the quantities of armour on some of them meant the black would be the prominent feature I wanted. It does look like that at least some head swaps would work, but we will see how that looks a bit later.
