    Kitbashing skeletons and human/elven troops

    I got a few Cursed Company Skeletons and I want to keep the theme going. I was thinking of kitbashing some skeletons with High Elves, Dark Elves, and Empire infantry. It's simple enough to swap a normal trooper head with a skull, but I fear that's not enough. What is the best combination so...

    How can I go about making Meso-American undead?

    So, I have been slowly working on creating jungle themed undead. I planned to make my Grave Guard out of converted Tomb Guard. I figured their helmets would look Mayan with the right paint job. Swap the Egyptian style weapons for Saurus Weapons (probably Temple Guard Halberds). Poof! I have the...

    Anyone try Blood in the Badland Siege with VC or Undead Legions?

    I only played Siege Battles with Lizardmen so far. I imagine undead do good on offense with the help of Blenders. I imagine defense is challenging. If a section is not breached, zombies with IoN could probably hold off an attack indefinitely, but a breached section seems hard to hold with any...

    Where do Terrorgheists come from?

    Zombies and skeletons are magically animated corpses. Ghouls are former cannibals or their infected victims. Crypt Horrors are ghouls fed vampire blood. Vargheists are degenerate vampires starved into madness. Vargulfs are vampires who give in to their predator urges completely. Black...

    2000 points, LM (with Undeath) versus Undead Legions

    Just finished a vanilla tournament. I asked if anyone wanted to give End Times rules a spin, and a guy wants to test out a list for a future (distant) End Times Tournament. This guys usually beats me, and he is testing out a tournament list. Therefore. Nothing I can do is too cheesy, so I'm...

    Is the Lore of Undeath worth it for living armies?

    How does it stack versus Army book or BRB lores? Does it hold it's own or it just gimmicky? Either way I want to try it since my Vampire Counts army is a little small to play them as the main army but is plenty big to give me a wide variety of things to summon.

    What exactly does sunlight do to GW vampires?

    Instant death? Slow burns? Horrible pain? Moderate discomfort? What little fluff I've read, sunlight almost seems to be a non-factor. At the very least it should make it hard to travel overland, at least not without giving away one's position to one's enemies. Manfred seems to catch...

    Themed Terrain Generators

    My gaming group normally uses the BRB terrain generator, but sometimes we've had issues with combinations of terrain that don't make sense. One day we serendipitously rolled a “haunted” board and we had a blast. This got us set on (eventually) phasing out the schizophrenic BRB terrain...

    Working on an reptilian Abyssal Terror, Could use suggestions for parts and implementation

    Anyway my plan is to make an Abyssal Teror that fluffwise was constructed Frankenstein style from dead creatures gathered in Lustria. A friend of mine went nuts with the old Bones Kickstarter a while back and sold me his red dragon model, I think it was Pathfinder. It looks cool and it fits...

    Guidelines for Magic Defense

    I’m working on a guide for prioritizing which enemy spells to dispel. I’m open to feedback on these ratings. I’m using a modified color scheme similar to the up and coming 8E handbook. I’m open to changing this if someone disagrees with my rating or assessment. If you believe this is...

    Handbook Addendum, Magic Items and Lores

    This is the original thread (edited a modest amount) that I used to get Najo and Sun King to work on the official 8ed handbook. This covers peripheral add-ons. The BRB magical items and the Forbidden Lores. Red is dead. This is a choice that's so bad, it actively detracts from your army...

    2500 Storm of Magic LM with VC Pact

    @The Sun King, I might as well plumb your brain since no one has given me any input on Storm of Magic builds. You kind of owe me and are familiar enough with LM to have an idea how to mix LM and VC. So I now have a wide array of Vampire Counts Core. Roughly 50 Lustrian Zombies (and growing)...

    Why so little BSB love

    The way I figure it, you put a BSB in your best unit. When you win, that's +1 CR which means you are more likely to break the other side. If you lose that's TWO fewer casualties in that unit. For Grave Guard and above that pays for the cost of the BSB. That's before you count other units...

    What does Luther Harkon strive for?

    I am referring to Luthor Harkon of the Vampire Coast. His zombie pirates just seem to be a speed bump for Lustrian raiders. There can't be that much to pirate in that section of waters. What is collecting plunder for anyway? Does he want to take out the Lizardmen? Does he want to go back...

    Prototype Conversion of LM Ghoul. Desire Feedback

    I’m working on LM ghouls for my Lustrian themed undead. Fluffwise usually tainted spawning pools produce sickly Lizardmen who die within minutes of their spawnings. I figured if you toss in some necromantic magic into a tainted pool you would get Lizardmen ghouls instead. The Quatlixa, or...

    What is the base size of an Abyssal Terror?

    I am working on making an undead army that is mostly conversions. I am going with a cosmopolitan force cobbled together by a Vampire Lord exiled to Lustria. I'm thinking of making an abyssal terror that's a Frankenstein-type monster composed of dead dinosaurs and Chaos mutated...

    Spirit Hosts made from ordinary models on 40 mm bases?

    I remember seeing lots of photos of them before but now many of the photos are unviewable. Anyway I'm planning to use Skinks, Saurus, Dwarfs, humans, and Skaven to make multi-racial Spirit Hosts. First question: How many models per base? Too few might look cheap. Too many might make it...
