Infiltrating Naga

Not very explanatory in the title but I'm trying to find any old rules, or custom rules (decent ones) that have been made based on the Amazons.
Just curious really I may make my own rules if need be or if any that are around are seriously out of date just I was looking for a minor side project outside of everything else that I'm doing at the moment, sort of like a break away from excessive Skaven painting.
Soooo I'm trying to go with making / locating the Amazons! So far I've found 2 decent places that sell Amazons and I'm still looking for more models that I could use / potentially convert for troops so links would be super helpful if anyone knows, but for the time being I'm really looking to locate any existing rules that might still be around?

This guy's done several homebrew warhammer armylists and has put a lot work into presentation as well:

It's a start I guess. I assume the only rules by GW would be for the Mordheim game, of which there are minis as well:

but I think those are oop, but you can still get the newer ones from GW via specialist games, but its pricey:

ah that book looks incredible  I think thats exactly what I was after, only I may add some additional rules to use with the project I have in mind, but for 99% of it that book is perfect! ty for linking it.
Now, the hard part generally is finding models that I can use in place of certain Amazons. I have located a handful but nothing that can really be used on scale for say, a unit of 20 etc.
So if you have any more magical links they would be wonderful xD, Ideally looking for plastic sets that can either be used for/ modelled into or modified to be Amazons. Not necessarily to fit what's in the book but in general even. Trying to locate as many sources as I can.

Sure, this is all I know about save for some metal ones, which I assume you could get from the Foundry and other such places. Here are Wargaems Factory's plastic ones, you get a lot of bang fo your buck, but they aren't the best sculpts in the world! Your call:

I have 2 short pdf's- one is 'Handmaids of the Gods' (Amazons) and another is 'Converted to the Cause'(non-lizard Lustrian armies). I guess I pulled these from when they had the Astronomicon thing. Anyway, pm me your email and I'll send them if you want.
