InfestedKerrigan Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 This is [big bad swear word]ing rad! I could see painting up a few armies like this. Not sure I'd play WHFB with it. I think I'd use them for AoS, for ease of play amd learnability with non gaming friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious if there are still people in the area interested in playing some “Minihammer?” It’s not nearly as big of a plunge to get into 10mm (priced out my army at ~$100 with the bases / trays), just wanted to see what the interest level is before I start grabbing them sweet pewter Dryads, heh.

TheBeninator Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 So the smallest infantry size is 10x10mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalaxyChief Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Are you using warmaster minis for this system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use Warmaster minis (right scale), you would just need to separate the "stands" into individual models for the most part, since casualties are removed by model, ala Warhammer. I would use Warmaster minis if I owned any, but there are a ton of companies out there that make 10mm Fantasy stuff for cheaper that what I can get WM stuff on ebay for, so I'll probably go that route.

scottshoemaker Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Warmaster is insanely expensive. Go with anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GalaxyChief Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 I have an empire army from when it was originally released. The game never caught on in my area so the minis got boxed up and come to the surface of my pile of shame at times. What other manufactures offer decent 10mm fantasy minis?

Kelharis Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I was thinking about how to do a Daemon army in minihammer and had some questions that people might be able to answer (I hope). So for scale, I'm wondering if the 10mm warmaster daemon hordes or the 6mm epic daemons would work better, almost seems like the epic scale minis are larger than the warmaster minis? Also, I have some older Metal GW Daemon minis, do you guys think the old metal greater daemons would be a semi appropriate scale for minihammer greater daemons? They fill a 50mm round about as much as the new GDs fill a 100mm round, but I'm concerned about height. I'm thinking one of the old metal Daemon Princes could work for a bloodthirster as well. Another idea was to model plastic bloodletters with harpy wings to create minihammer flying daemon princes. What about brimstone horrors (cut in twain) as pink horrors, think they would fit a 12.5mm base? I don't own any, so I can only guess at scale...

Unfortunately I don't know about Warmaster vs Epic, having never really played or owned either system. Not sure about the Brimstone Horrors either. Regarding the old metal GW Daemon minis, I'm sure the old metal Great Daemons / Daemon Price would be much to big for the scale, at least for a Greater Daemon. In 9th Age, I think the Greater Daemon are on chariot bases? 50x100, so they would have to fit on 25x50 bases for minihammer. I know the old GW Greater Demons are smaller than the current by a long shot, but I think you would have trouble squeezing them on a 25mm base. They would probably work for something like a Soul Grinder (equivalent) though, since the 100x150 would still be a 50x75 base in Minihammer.

Yes, I guess I should have read the rules for base size clarification. Thanks for the response! Chariot base would definitely make using the new GUO model difficult in T9A for sure. I'll just need to keep looking for suitable greater daemon models that fit a cavalry base seems like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think any of the 25mm demon models will serve you well; I'm looking at building Sylvan Elves, and I'm planning on using the normal Dryads for Treefathers.

scotthartman Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) I have a large tin full of humans at 10mm, could be Empire or Brettonians. If someone is interested in them let me know. I could potentially be coerced into playing them as well. Edit: Forgot that I got rid of those minis. Is mini-hammer a thing though? Might be better then trying to start up AoS which I've been considering. Edited July 3, 2018 by scotthartman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely up for it! It might take me a bit to get something together, but if there's interest I'll definitely look into it. I know @TheBeninator and I were talking about making an order for bases a while back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeninator Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 If it means more people to play with, I would be into it. Good chance to play an army I have never wanted to shell out mad cash for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotthartman Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 I'll check it out. I remember when I last looked into this there were a ton of miniature options. This is the best resource that I've seen, http://www.ricks-warmaster.com/ricks_links.htm Let me know if either of you, or anyone else, wants to plan this out. Feel free to pm me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeninator Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Mmmm.... I have been giving this idea too much thought. Only like $150 to make a full army! How interested are we here? Is this just a novelty idea, or is this for reals? I could get behind this post OFCC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewgeddon Posted July 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 I am down! Post OFCC for sure, but the idea of getting to play other armies without investing $500+ is very appealing. I just need to figure out what I'm going to play... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPaceORK Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Umm this is still going? Cause I still have a tomb kings army that I still haven't looked at in, well 6 years now. If anyone wants it, it can go very cheaply. I 'd rather it have a good home than sit on a shelf for eternity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
