Xtreme (Zlurpcast's Other Guy) created an event, that is going to be a series, around these legendary teams. Eight coaches from around the Midwest have been assigned to each team and will be leading them onto the pitch. As new teams are introduced they will be created but for this round there are eight. Each coach is responsible for creating the players as described in the fluff, using proper colors and physical traits, and creating new and interesting fluff about the teams.
The teams are:
Bright Crusaders, Human
Orcland Raiders, Orc
Celestial Comets, Elf
Grudge Bearers, Dwarf
Greenboyz, Goblin
Warpfire Wanderers, Skaven
Chaos All Stars, Chaos Pact
Underworld Creepers, Underworld
I was assigned to the Warpfire Wanderers. I've not coached a skaven team more than a couple times so I'm looking forward to that aspect. The first step I'm taking is acquiring miniatures and prepping them to become the Wanderers. The team has a bit of a warpstone issue. They like the green and their bodies have the mutations to show for it. I've chose to use mostly third edition skaven miniatures to make up my team.
Here are some of the metal I've chosen:
Linerats |
Blitzers |
Throwers |
Gutter Runners |
Extras |
Other Plans, these haven't been fully fleshed out:
Cheerleaders - Comixininos pieces, mod some unused linerats
Apoth - Comixininos
Counters - giant rats, Warpstone thingies
3D Dugout - Sewer Themed
Team bus
Locker room/Carrying case - Sewer Themed
The other coaches are all putting their stuff together and are coming up with great and inspiring ideas. This event is gonna be a blast.
I'm super excited for this! Can't wait to see what you come up with.
ReplyDeleteI think the longer legged linerat in the middle could become a Gutter Runner with the addition of some type of cape/cloak.
I tried capes and hood a few years ago with the Mordheim warband, I think giving that a try again is a good option.
