Excellent! I always forget youtube is a great resource for painting.
So, I just got my Minotaurs and really like the models. These are the 3 plastic ones that come in a box with options for Champ, Musician, and Standard, which I assumed I would use all three. They come with a lot of options and I am not sure which way to go with them. They come with great weapons which I think look awesome, but in my case, only the Champion would be armed with a great weapon because the others would be holding a standard and drum. I normally would be happy with 2 weapons each mode, but I already have a planned unit of Gors being armed with two weapons. I do like variety, and I think the great weapons will look dope. The set also comes with shields but I do not have any options to use them in RH.
So that being said, here is my 700 point army list and my 1000 point:
- Chieftain (60) with Black Maul (40) and Armor of Bones (30)
- Shaman (75) with Power Stone (25) and Armor of Bones (30)
- 10 Beastigors (110) with Champion (10), Standard (10), and Musician (10)
- 10 Gors (50) with Extra Hand Weapon (20), Light Armor (10), Champion (10), Standard (10), and Musician (10)
- 10 Gors (50) with Shields (10), Light Armor (10), Champion (10), Standard (10), and Musician (10)
- 10 Ungors (30) with Spears (20), Shields (10), Light Armor (10), Champion (10), Standard (10), and Musician (10)
Thats for 700, and if I want to bump this up to 1000, I am adding:
- 3 Minotaurs (135) with Champion (15), Standard (15), and Musician (15)
- 5 Harpies (110)
If I give the Minotaurs great weapons for 6 points each, then I would change out the magic items for my heros. I hate spending so much on magic items too, but I didn't have much choice at the time.
I really, really like these guys. Evil looking and not cheesy like some of the other evil looking armies. Automatically Appended Next Post: I really think I should give the Minotaurs great weapons... Maybe I can figure out a way to incorporate the great weapons with the standard bearer and musician in some way.
