The FW Mourngul is up in the New Stuff section. Here's a quick link. I'm sure some industrious warlord will add pics later.

Thats pretty cool.

I still want to substitute Skin Wolves for Crypt Horrors in my army, or at least have them to do so. A shame they are of Chaos. But I suppose it fits in Warhammer. Fluffwise I could always pretend my vampires captured some in an Underworld manner.
 
It looks pretty cool are you sure its chaos after reading the description it sounds like a a wraith cross with a ghoul "hunting their companions and former friends for their meat and warmth of their blood becoming neither dead nor alive" and "Spite, desperation and malice force these thrice-damned creatures to linger beyond death" still a freaky model definitely have to get one, just being curious is there a Vampire Monster in the Monstrous Arcanum.
 
the only prob is its size its like nearly 6 inches tall you could use it as a TG though? its mite aswell have a big target painted on it for its size lol but i do like it

The actual rules in the monstrous arcana state that it doesn't count as a large target as it is thin and insubstantial.

I do like the model - and while I am not a fan of storm of magic - it is one of the few reasons I would consider playing it........
 
Simply stunning. It would make an incredible Terrorgheist, though such a slim model may look odd in a terrorgheist-sized base unless you really fill up the base with other bits.
 
im not a fan of SoM everytime i tried to sort a game they all ran for tzeentch warriors with puppet and i got sick of it so ill stick to using it as a TG im sure i cud fill the base up
 
Wow stunning model, cool fluff too, I agree that it sounds more wraith-like than Chaos and would be a great center-piece in any VC-army! Using it as a TG would be awesome but as mentioned the base size would be hard to fill but you could go all out and fill it with Empire carcasses, blood and gore!

I could see it as a Mortis Engine you would have to be somewhat creative with the fluff but it does look arcane or put it on a 40mm base and use it as a Spirit Host.. Ok clearly I just want to give excuses to use the model that thing is awesome :)

I'm just getting into SoM and have found it to be really entertaining, but the puppet is stupid as hell! :) do any of you own the Monsterous Arcanum, if so what abilities does it have?

I saw this the other day and honestly I really like it.

I thought you saw it in the games day models? ;)

It has some great lore and epic rules in the Forge world Monstrous Arcana book, even a journal extract from a empire solider turning into one.
It is expensive though for a creature at the 300 point'ish mark.
 
Monstrous Arcana does have a scenario that allows you to use the monsters without the magic part of storm of magic. The scenario is called Monstrous Confrontation I believe.
 
hey everyone, whats the base size of the mourngul, cause i love the model and what to use try it in a game before i get it. so if anyone could help me out that'd be most appreciated

Bleh, I know I've seen someone do just that in a YouTube battle report. I watched it just a few days ago but now I can't seem to find it again. Perhaps it's on my work computer's history. :)

Anyway, I thought it looked quite well, and he had filled out the large TG base with other bits and terrain to bulk it out. I'm tempted to do the same if I'll get a second Terrorgheist.

I believe it uses the same size as the varghulf, 50x50 mate.
 
Oh, and I found out where I had seen the Mourngul used in action. It was from our very own Eggspr! :clown:

You can see it in some of the pictures in his battlereport in This Thread.

Speaking of Forgeworld, the "preyton" they've released would make a pretty rad Varghulf. It even comes with a 50mm base and everything.
After looking through the forge world website i was just thinking that myself. Now i am trying to think how i could squeeze one in my army

aye, I bought preyton a few months back, for the Abysal terror challenge, its smaller than looks, but i use it as varghulf without the horns., and it does the job excellent. now it just need paint;)
 
I'm almost positive this link won't work, but i'll try it anyway... I did up a Mourngul and it's posted in Unholy Masterpieces. Enjoy!

Works just fine, Eggspr. I love what you've done with that thing. I'm sorely tempted to do something similar. :)
