Including the copy of White Dwarf and one ebay dude this nostalgia trip has cost me $60, and I'm OK with that. It is 100% nostalgia for sure.

Mr White, I don't know anything about Silver Tower, sorry.

I used Hirstarts to pimp out Wiz-War, I'm thinking about doing the same for Gorec Hosen.

Heroscape tiles would be OK, but since the board isn't really mutable, may as well go for the nicer looking static board.

I'm thinking that you would need a way to make actual fire pits for that to be successful.

Not difficult.
For example, if you were to make it a lava board with magma radiation from the clefts in the rocks, each pit could just be a pool of lava soup.

Or spiky pits. Or pits with tentacular things that feast on the unwary, etc.

Doesn't even have to be a pit. It could be a pillar that is wreathed in pain and death causing spikes, knives, unicorn horns that have the same effect as being pushed into a pit.

Does anyone have a scan of the WD rules for valkyria and skarr?

This stupid issue is hard to find at anything resembling a reasonable price, even without the free model.

Terrible quality pictures I just took but should be readable.

Thanks guys.

Barnes, you should earn commission from Dan for the business you drum up for them. I ordered gorechosen from he and Lea.

Can someone give me a breakdown on the extra characters? Like I realize there are two super powered ones in WD, and rules for 4 other characters without models in the rulebook. Are these 4 extra characters just missing models or do like cards and other stuff come in the WDs too?

The four in the book are just missing models. There are no special cards for any of the characters.

As a self contained game, it works great.
I'd only buy the extras if you like modeling and have the expendable cash.
I was able to buy three of the four extras for $40 shipped.

So I've decided I want to expand the model range a bit and use "counts as" rules combined with photo shop skills.

The dark elf Medusa from the bloodwrack shrine would make a good fill in for valkia. I am rationalizing that "Khaine=Khorne", so she would find herself in the pits, but not for the same reasons as the gorechosen. "Blood for the blood god? Nay. Murder for Khaine."
Also, really gorgeous model. Phenomenal even.


Moving along, I think there should be a place for the beastmen in here too, so perhaps taking the place of the rather stupid looking bloodsecrator would be in order. A bull gor would be fitting, especially one with a two handed weapon.


Of course, now that I'm doing all these "counts as" fill ins, I'm tempted to just retheme the whole damn game to include any race with appropriately badass models...






Etc. Etc. Etc...

great model selection!

I love 'counts as' when people get creative like this.

(don't like it so much when it's "this bottle cap counts as...")

Upon further reflection, I think the best way to handle this is to just make stat cards without names or pics.
This way, any model can fill in for any chosen or randomly selected card.
It's not the best method, since you want the powers to match the overall capability one would imagine a model to have, but it allows a greater variety of models to be used. I feel this is more important to be inclusive of models rather than exclusive.

Or maybe just release a PSD template for the game, and let people add whatever the heck they would like. Choose stat card 1-10, add a pic and a name. Print. Play.
