I'm always on the lookout for things I can convert to Maneaters and I'm currently looking at the Ogres/Ogryn that FW makes. I'm wondering what other people think of the potential of using the following as potential Maneaters. The biggest problem with the nurgle Ogres is that it's part of a set and I've got nobody interested in going in for the other two.

Skaven Merc Maneater



Nurgle Chaos Merc Maneater

If you get a hold of white dwarf 300 there is some good stuff there. There is a Bretonnian one with like these long spears and a tunic. There is a dwarf slayer one with an orange mohawk and a pair of axes with chains around his forearms a la Kratos style. I came acrosss this guy today:

Use your imagination, they go off and fight as mercenaries they are bound to take on the fighting style and apparel of those they fight with.

the FW Ogryn and Ogres will work fine.

basically as long as you are WYSIWYG you will be fine. its perfectly reasonable that a group of Maneaters would have come under the thrall of Nurgle during their travels. a big hole in your gut means you can eat constantly, maybe even eat the same stuff twice

Is that the one with the kitchen wagon in it? I'll have to see if I still have that one. I wasn't into fantasy back then and may not have kept it. :(
