There's a thread on the PP forums where someone has posted pics of several new units from Hordes Evolution. There are new Circle, Skorne, and Everblight models. But no trolls. http://forums.privateerpress.com/index.php?showtopic=113471&st=0 I like the Nyss Executioners...finally, some non-ugly elves! Ninja army, here I come. The gatormen are kinda funky looking to me though...I think they should have been larger.

The Druid wolf-riders and Skorne giant statue warrior dude-guys are pretty darn swell. But really, the best part...GATORMEN!

A second on the egyptian samurai dude-guys. Awesome. The gators are cool too. The one bald elf chick has a freakishly large Suri Cruise sized head.

Wow Circle wolf riders, repeating crossbows and tron thingie. I may just have to start a Circle army now. The mini ancestral guardians and the rage ghost for the Skorne are nice. I also like the Kurgan style executioners for Everblight but the Gator men are rather meh compared to the Sebeki for War Gods, I do like the fact they are on medium bases and mean everyone will have a big based hard hitting heavy infantry available to everyone and if they work for anyone then some factions can double dip.

I love those wolf riders! The circle solo/character guy with the axe is cool too. And the crossbowmen. And the dark guys with the big swords.

I think a little pee came out when I saw those Gatormen. I want to start a Hordes army more and more. Maybe after this summer.... I like the Nyss Executioners too, even though they look like they are heavily influenced by (and bordering on ripping-off) the GW Dark Elf Executioners.

I'm glad I chose Circle as my main force for Warmachine/Hordes. I wonder which warlock will work best with the Woldwyrd and the Wolf Riders. I just hope the Wolf Riders don't cost as much as the Warmachine cavalry models.

Yes but they are so much better than the Lame GW ones!!! These would make awesome Dark Elf Executioners! Infact its tempting me to start a Dark Elf army! Bad!!! Baaaadddd!!!!!!!

Posted By Modhail on 04/23/2007 10:52 PM Wow, great stuff. I really like those Gatormen and wolf-riders, and the style of visor on the Executioners. And thought those Skorne statue-things are cool, I'm really wondering why they're armed with cricket bats? Are they supposed to confuse the enemy and put them to sleep by playing cricket? Bye, Modhail I was thinking that they were spatulas. Spatula city, spatula city!

It's ok. Those releases are spread across an entire year anyway. So it's like Privateer Press has us all on the installment plan.

Wow, I am at the point where I could sell all of my GW Fantasy stuff and Just play Hordes and Warmachine! The gatormen are OK, but the rest is really blowing my mind! I think my failed Black Orc army Idea is toast and Hordes will replace WFB! I think I see some skorne in my future, those new Ancestral Guardians rock! Pun Intended....
Thank you Privateer Press, thank you!
Chappy P!

Thats fair enough man but in my opinion... Sorry man but the Dark Elf line is really dated and not up to much anymore. whilst the Executioners may have been okay at release they have their faults and haven't aged well. In fact I've never been a fan of Chris Fitzpatricks work in the whole (i believe he also did these?). In my opinion these new Nyss ones are far superior and much more up to date. These could stand proudly next to my Slaaneshi chaos warriors. I'm not sure if the same could be said of the old Executioner sculpts in terms of quality and execution (excuse the unintened pun!)

I think the gatormen are particularly good. I was very skeptical at first. Gatormen? Give me a break. But the realization of that idea has turned out to look pretty good. These are definately a future purchase.
The cameraman had no love for the trolls? I need to see me some Troll-cav. (Pygs on horses, please.)
It's interesting to see Rhyas's counterpart, by the way.

Hallo, The pics are from the Privateer Press Invite. It was a little event they threw for their Press Gangers. Sadly there were no new troll models for me to take any pictures of. As a troll player myself, I wept salty tears. Apparently there was some sort of confusion with their troll sculptor but I'm not certain on particulars.
