I just had an idea pop in my head for a new army that I will probably start and never finish, but still... I was thinking, what if I took bodies from bloodletters or beastmen and chaos hound heads and made em look like werewolves? Possibly using a warpwolf from hordes as a giant too.

But if I did that, what other kinds of werewolfy troops would I have? What would a leader model look like? would I wanna use beastmen rules? or warriors of chaos? or something else? Lets say I wanted to put together a 1000 pt army just for fun games. what would be good to include?

Beastmen would be the most obvious.

thing with beastmen though is, I already have a kroot beastman army so I'll wanna do something that will play a little differently maybe if I did demons and only stuck to khorne & nurgle?

I guess, but maybe flip it? Werewolves are furry, so Beasts is natural, so the Kroot can stand in as Bloodletters?

Don't do Werewolves. Do Wererats! That way you can have the joy of buying the new Skaven plastic when it comes out, too.

I would recommend using khrone demons rules for werewolves. The kind of werewolves that have lost their humanity, and have become little more than savage beasts.

Because big winged Werewolves that are somehow incredibly skilled at parrying and wear armour totally makes sense.

Hi Necros , i have an werewolf army as well , however i dont use Beastmen rule on them ( I use wood elves! )

My army scheme is " children of the forest" combining beastmen + tree spirits

You know werewolves are supposed to be abberations against nature, right Luna? As in, the kind of things Wood Elves would kill on sight? Especially in WHFB, where they were created by dark magic.

Er ........ i didnt know that , but its ok!

because there are no elves in the army lol.
only thing with pointly elf ear = Orion

That doesn't make much sense either, if he's supposed to be the ultimate guardian of the forest. I can't remember if werewolves were specifically created by Chaos like the Beastmen or by the Vampires.

What the heck? There is werewolf in warhammer Fantasy? and in chaos?
never seen one!

anyways i like the wild feral look , so i'll be sticking with it -_- fluff can kiss my behind.

Unfair bias against were creatures in this thread! There's an unfair bias against were creatures in this thread!
Western cultural imperialism, I say.

Disclaimer: In the WHFB setting, were-creatures are probably an abomination against the proper order.
