So, I've got another lockdown project finished, part of my push to at least make a dent in the leadpile and not buy any more models for a while. (I haven't succeeded, but I didn't buy any models for this project, at least!)
This works out to about 1000 points of Chaos Dwarfs (not including magic items etc) as an ally contingent according to the 3rd Ed Warhammer Armies book.
First up is the leader, Dravagnak Arach-Nurzal, a Lvl 20 Chaos Knight. As well as the Mark of Nurgle, his initial mutation is 'crossbreed' with 'Giant Spider', giving him M5, a save of 4+ and causes Fear in all enemies under 10' within 6", however he must take a Panic test if attacked by fire weapons:
Second in command of the contingent is Rhabak Plagueseer, a Lvl 15 Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer:
Next is Gharkad Filthheart, a Lvl 10 Hero, to be attached to either infantry unit as required:
The first unit is 7 Chaos Dwarf Berzerkers. (as the force are Nurgle devotees, the units are in multiples of seven)
One of the models (second from right) is actually a non-chaos model, King Gorrin from the old Dwarf Lords of Legend box set, but he looked suitably crazed and worked quite well when dirtied up and painted with rust. I had to use him as I was a few Chaos Dwarves short to fill out the unit numbers, there are also a few in the next unit, too.
The main bulk of the contingent is a unit of 21 Chaos Dwarves with Light armour, hand weapons and shields:
Because there's three ranks and they're tricky to see, here's each rank photo'ed separately:
Third rank:
Second rank
First rank, with the leader and standard bearer:
And a close up of the standard bearer:
The rest of the force is all artillery, First up is a mortar:
Next, a swivel gun:
And finally, a Bazuka team:
I've had plenty of fun with conversions and green stuff with these, and it's nice to get some paint on a big pile of lead I've had hanging around for years. There's more photos and assorted waffle on my blog, if you're interested: https://port-imperiale.blogspot.com/202 ... ngent.html
