Most of the Tactica stuff I read give Priests with Eviscerators and Ogryn somewhat poor rating, especially together. The ogryn don't benefit from Righteous Fury, and the Priest with Eviscerator is a whopping 60pts, but they sure are effective if you can get them dug in. It actually works quite well because (as long as you position the priest to not be in BtB with too many folks) the Ogryn, with their high toughness and wounds, almost guarantee the priest getting to swing that giant chainsword around.

I also thought about doing the sentinel chainsword conversion, but imho it is just too big (if such a thing is possible in the grimdark  )
Viktor von Domm wrote:mostly i would make such models for the look of the thing...
That's where I started with my priest: I dreamt up a cool conversion, and now he's actually accomplishing some good stuff!

Thanks! We certainly are refering to this one, and you're certainly correct. I thought the WHFB feel fit in well with the Vostroyans and I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. I'm not totally happy with the paint job yet, so I'll probably do some more work on him in the future...

I'll do my best! As I said before, I didn't want to get too big. He only has strength 3 and as is, the sword is taller than he is!
dsteingass wrote:Yeah, I really want to find that mini of the Priest with the two-handed Eviscerator, that is the best priest I've seen.
You'd be hard pressed to find that particular one. It's based on the WHFB Empire Priest with Great Weapon, with a SW chainsword for an eviscerator, the Sigmarite icons shaved off, and Imperial bits added or GS'd

I'm confused at how you are surprised that a few guys on horseback got blowed up into to tiny little bitz by a heavily armed and armored mega-stat entourage... though I suppose you could have protested and state the rivets conferred a better armor save. 
Sounds like a great game overall.

Mostly it was me just being uninformed. You know, I thought that 12 S5 I5 power weapon attacks would have a decent impact. Then I found out that a lot of his guys had I6. That was more of a factor, as they weren't really heavily armed and armored. Well, now I know... Automatically Appended Next Post: Maybe I should be working on something that is actually on my Vostroyan to-do list, but I started a random side project. I thought even a side project update would be preferable to another combat report. This is, after all, a PM blog I present to you: Vostroyan Marbo!
Here's what I have so far:
It's been a bit interesting getting exactly what I want (and I still don't have all the details worked out yet) but I'm happy with the progress, and we'll see where this goes! I'm especially happy with the ripper pistol...
CC greatly desired, as always.
Thanks for looking!

Mine is based off of a Vostroyan sniper model.

Well I for one AM taking him when I start my dream army, and he will be modeled after Solid Snake! So as long as you go about your own modeling (although the offical model is cool) It should always be original, ecept my idea because im sure someone has done it before

And, I am sad to say, no updates will be forthcoming for a few weeks, as I'm flying back to the US today for Christmas(unless I get some good stuff for Christmas and take a pic for you all )
