Very nice article, and applicable to other games than Warlord. Thanks for the link.

Hey no problem.

Hey i just got a sweet idea - why not build an entire army using this concept, instead of glueing the picture on the base you can put it into a slota base standing and presto - an entire army in no time.

No painting no fuss, how\'s that for all you quick painters out there

Oh yeah - you can actually get really nice pics of the models from a certain mini site* *illegal i think

phun intended for sure... but seriously although i can see a point to this entire exercise i would suggest one uses all the models he has not painted or simply varnish them heavily becouse to me it kills the hobby and the game. I think that unless you play with miniatures you can play cards or a computergame instead.

Hey what Agreat idea kjugen. Maybe I will put together a warhammer dwarf army like that and see how it does in a tourny. Do you think it would be legal.

::rollseyes::

I think the point is that you still have to have the models that are stunned/dead. It\'s just a way to save those mini\'s.

This is actually a really good idea. Say you play High Elves. Buy a bunch of early crappy versions of high elves cheap. Prime them white, put a little blue or silver on the backs, throw on some red for bloody details, and don\'t put them on bases, just drop them face down when one of your nicely painted models gets killed.
Slightly more expensive than the above idea, but only slightly and probably a lot less work.
