Not much chaos. But it's Ok. I'm happy to see new work from Mantic. They are pushing the scene of wargames.

Seems like they are metal conversion bits for the normal dwarfs, as announced.

Some old info by Warseer sources:
Sculptor is Bob Naismith, who also did the zombies. About 20 heads and other metal conversion bits planned including one body with breastplate and 80s style shoulder pads. All beards in ringlet style (similar to bighats).

Oh, another thing: Here's hoping the Mantic boys read the BL novel Wulfrik for more inspiration.

Very interesting, probably wont buy them though since I dont really buy dwarves of any kind

But have to agree, where are the orcs we've been seeing!

So far have been liking the Mantic ranges.
Don't think the Chaos Dwarves are too bad, and imho better than the old GW ones. To be fair they were 2nd ed or so?
What I find disappointing is the reference to those Babylonian stunties of yore. It helps so the two will fit together on the table I guess. But the Mesopotamian theme dosen't do a lot for me.

Would have much preferred a totally new, meaner image rather something that will fit my old Chaos Dwarves tbh.

Good news is that they have rules for KoW so the few GW ones will be able to have a run out.
Oh lawks. Yet another project to add to the list.

Actually they are growing on me, if Dwarfs and growing is not a contradiction

I love the Assyrian/Babylonian/Tigris/Euphrates vibe of the Chaos Dwarf range, but I can see minimizing the 'big hats'.

But keep the ringlet beards, the Great Taurus, the Lamassu, the blunderbusses, the slaves, the Earthshaker, the... well, you get the idea...!

No offense to mantic, but those stovepipe helmets look like gak. I would not buy those on a dare. Everything else is cool, though.

Some of those look like they have to be glued on the standard heads (good thing as some mantic dwarfs have no separate head).

I was just about to post a new thread about those heads..


My radar is definitely wonky at the moment.
Would some kind soul please point me in the right direction to download the Open Beta KoW Rules?

Must have misunderstood the message :faceplam:

I need sleep and new specs. Not necessarily at the same time, but if the spec fairy would leave me some that would be cool.

I think the only two I don't like are the one with the pig face on his head and the one with the breast (eye) on his head.
