Any Warhammer players out there? I'm not talking about Space Marines and super-duper world-crushing annihilator-land-raider-grav-tanks here [img]tongue.gif[/img] but Dragons, Cannons and big regiments of meticulously painted rank-and-file troops!
Oh and Sigmar, how do you like being the only army slower than Undead?

Ooooh that was below the belt (and that's pretty hard considering I'm a dwarf, not literally but I'm dwarf at heart ) , but you forget about the trusty hat wearing lunatics theCHAOS DWARFS. Granted they may have bull centaurs but they're still dwarfs! We have gyrocopters which are faster then anything you army has to offer, well except that damn zombie dragon. The only people at Ironworks that I know that play warhammer are Azure but he collects 40,000 and Legolas.

Chaos Dwarves are the only army in warhammer with only 2 troop types being dwarves and the rest a mixture of other races [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Now lets see for Undead.. Zombies, Wraiths, Wights, Skeletons, Vampires, Ghouls, Wolves, Banshees.. did I miss anything? As for Dwarves.. Dwarves with guns and beards, Dwarves with hammers and beards, Dwarves with axes and orange beards, Dwarves with pickaxes and beards, Dwarves with cannons and beards... Hahah just joking friend I dread the day my Vampires go up against slayers.. Plus we have Fell Bats, Spirit Hosts, Winged Nightmares and the famed Zombie Dragons. Rear charges are so much fun with the little folk [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] [ 01-17-2002: Message edited by: Lifetime ]

Well, my hordes of lizardmen would leave you in the stone age (ducks stones thrown due to exceedingly cheesy pun).
But seriously, I collect Lizardmen, after a brief tango with High Elves years back. Also, do any of you play Warhammer Quest or Blood Bowl?

quote: Its a model game thats loosely based on Tolkien's Middle Earth. Try www.games-workshop.com And I used to play lizardmen too! But I sorta lost interest in them because of the lack of cool miniatures and the must for a Slann Mage-Priest. I hate those guys..

I've never played warhammer, altho I do use the figurines for D&D, and have homebrewed some rules to make mass combat easier than it is in PnP

Dark Omens? Its tough, and it bears no real relation to the board game. Good for a laugh though, there isn't much like it around really.
I play undead at present too. I made the massive mistake the other day of having an army made entirely of a massive skeleton unit. would have been fine as they are hard to kill (or at least permanently kill) but I gave them heavy armour and sheilds... moving 2" a turn... no marching... bad bad idea. Lost the game in my usual fit of hopelessness.
