Hello Dakka,

I am hoping for your feedback and advice,

Below you can see my Karskins + Cold Ones + Carnosaur conundrum.

Originally intended to be fielded as a “Counts As” Thunderwolf army, I’m beginning to question it.

As SW I tally it up as roughly 750 =

3 x (counts as) Wolf Lord with Bolt Pistol and Chain Sword on Thunderwolf
7 x (counts as) Thunderwolf Cavalry with Bolt Pistol and Chain Sword.
(Unbound)

What do you guys think would be the best way to represent these guys on the table top?
I could use the Cold One Riders as Rough Riders, and the Carnosaurs as a strange “Counts As” sentinel beasty type for my existing IG force, but I’m not convinced.

All suggestions welcome

Cheers

Without bikes in the IG codex, I can see why you have a problem.
The Rough Riders I can see, but the 'saurs...
The only units they could scale up to be would be a HWT (but that's a heavy weapon) or Ogryn (the weapons would be wrong).
Or, ally-in something that fits.

That's what I'm thinking at the moment. I actually have a 10 man Karskin squad painted in the same scheme that could potentially help "merge" them in to my IG.
I think the ally option is the better option.
Perhaps allied as SW Thunder Cav? Khorne blood letters? White scars? Whatever I pick it's not going to be a great fit I think

Rough riders and sydonian dragoons?

Now that's a thought.
Dragoons is an interesting line of enquiry


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Perhaps as Ravenwing?

1 of the Saurus riders as Sammael on Sableclaw

Cold one riders as Ravenwing bikets

2 other Saurus riders as Ravenwing Land speeders

Works out at at about 500 points
