Hey guys,

Need some advice on building a Retinue for Eisenhorn for killteam (I know I’m getting ahead of myself) or normal 40k to go along with my IG/Sisters army and the new Eisenhorn model.

I think this has come up before but looking for direction and updates. I’m lookin for GW models for conversions and what actual troop/squad choice they would be able to represent. Here’s some info and pics from the internet

Besides Ravenor and Cherubael, Eisenhorn maintained the following. Also my memory on the fluff is a little scattered so if anyone could help me remember which characters don’t overlap that would be appreciated too

First would be Godwyn Fischig: Former chastener in the Adeptus Arbites, I’ll probably find an old arbiters model for him and add a can I. To his shoulder?


The next biggie is elizabeth Bequin, a Blank, with an attribute that nullifies the effects of psychic or daemonic effects in her vicinity. What model can do this and what did Elizabeth normally wear? A body glove or something more exotic?

What about Midas and/or Medea Betancore: they were pilots of Eisenhorn's personal gun-cutter. Was thinking Elysian drop troop models

Harlon Nayl: was a Former mercenary and bounty hunter I think. He supposed to be big with a shaved head and a board glove. I thought about one of the new or old house van Saar models with a catachan head swap







Kara Swole is referred to as a former circus acrobat who was hired by Eisenhorn. Constantly described as "voluptuous" - I have no ideas there or what weapon load outs

Artel W's Chastener might fit the bill:

As far as I can remember, Bequin is either descibed as wearing a rather regal-looking dress or, especially in Xenos, as wearing a body-glove. She seemed to prefer dual pistols, either regular las pistols or something exotic, like needle pistols.
So, model-wise. maybe some old GW femalevampire count models? Probably Isabella von Carstein with hand and arm swaps?

Artel W Miniatures actually makes Eisenhorn's retinue. As one of the above posters already showed, that Chastener model actually IS supposed to be Fischig (they just can't name him Fischig because of copyright).

If you want Bequin, this is LITERALLY a model of her:


You can see other shots of the kit and buy her here:

They also have have Aemos:

Ha. I just found that site too. Those models are really good looking. It’s hard to pass on their fischig. It’s the same price as the arbiters on eBay and looks way better

I've been working on my own version of Eisenhorn's (and Ravenor's) warband here: https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/756299.page. Feel free to plunder...
