Heres the front view and back view. The race i play are called Minotaurs so i used games-workshops beastmen

I'd like to hear more about this 'legions'

Im still doing play testing right now but its basically a skirmish game but with alot of Rpg type rules. While you play against your opponent you will have ur own quest you have to do for example destroy the enemies supplies while your opponent will have a separate quest. You can keep them secret or tell them ,if you do you will gain more experience.

In this game you gain Experience which will allow you to level up and gain new things such as skills, spells, and allow you to use different items,weapons all kinds of things,

While you play there will be also Npcs that might attack you or keep doing what there doing but these things depending on what they are drop items you can loot, which can be really fun.

Also there is a Co-op play style where basically you and who ever else is playing with you can do big quest where you fight npcs only but only use your main characters, thats when you find the really good stuff and get the best loot.

But if your interested in it tell me what race youd like and ill give you what i ahve so far.

Well, what races are there?

You got
humans
3 types of elves
Mountain Elves
Woodland Elves
Cave Elves
Minotaurs
Ratmen
dwarfs
Orcs
Goblins

Thats for now but each race has a set of classes they can use and cant use say like minotaurs cant be rogues but ratman can things like that.

What's the "in game" basis for this? Why would the leader of a gang tell the other gang what he was trying to do? Don't mean to be picky but it sounds a bit too much like a "meta-game" rule to me.
That model's awesome though!
Another thing I'd say is that your races are a bit obvious. Could you think of something a bit more unique?

Only certain Quest you can tell your opponent if you want. example like you could get a quest where you must have your leader kill at-least 3 of your opponents henchmen so you could tell that and if you have to do you'll'' gain more exp other quest like Hidden Treasure in which your team must find a treasure in the terrain, if you told your opponent he would then want to do the same.

The races names are that because this came is for the players customization, in this game you can name your characters your race your Nation name, make storylines for them anything you can think of.

My team are Minotaurs but my Nations team are called "THE WILD HERD" as my main character is a Ranger and my story line for my team is very natureish i decided to give them Indian names so my leaders name is Aakash which means SKY.

The game does have a storyline and a little fluff for every race but didnt want to get to into it for i wanted the players to make there own.

Warrior is now done also.

Very clean painting style - I love it!

Shaman done, i still need to work on his base a little more.

What I meant was that the races are basically just the same races as WHFB. You should come up with a couple of completely new ones to make your game stand out.

Your game sounds really good, is it more of an in depth Mordheim style game? I would not worry to much about the differences in races. You have gone to more effort in making them different than Games Workshop did when they pawned them straight from Toilken and various other fantasy authors lol!!

Your ranger looks really nice, keep up the good work!

Oh yes there will be races that ive made up, im working on one right now where you play as a wolf race army they walk on two legs like a human but there body is a wolf so sorta like a werewolf but there always wolfs.

Ive got anther one where the race is different types of elements the first one is wind so when you see them it looks like armor only but with smoke filling it in.

Its some what like Mordeim but more advanced. how mordheim only lets you find items after the game has ended legions lets you find them during game play so it can change the game up fast, and in legions since you have skills or spells that can do massive damage your characters have more wounds then other games. theirs tons of differences but mordeim did give me the idea for this game, i love mordeim but im a person who likes advanced things and more customization type games plus legions allow you do play against Npcs so you can play by your self if you wanted.

Its basically a RPG game but a miniature fast paced game. I did take out the things that made rpgs confusing so it should be pretty easy to learn.

Rules do apply for what class you are meaning you dont want a wizard going in close combat with a warrior, with the exception on what type of wizard you are, each race has different types of wizards you can be. Say if your a mountain elf you can choose Fire, Frost, or Light Spells but not all at once. Fire in this case of fighting the warrior would be best in close combat because you can make a fire sword which is very deadly.
Each race has a wizard type that no other race has like the mountain elves for example has Light Spells and other races dont have it.

And seeing in this game you role for your starting stats changes the game alot, some characters may be better then other opponents at the same level but it will tell you how you might want to play them. but dont worry when you level up you can gain stats and weapons and items can increase them also.

Im trying to get people to play and i want to find out what race and class they want to play so i can make them and they can try them out at least the beta rules, so if your interested please feel free to ask about race and there race traits and what classes they can be and ill be glad to get them for you.

And thank you about the Ranger. i think he will be my main guy for the play test on Saturday.
A picture battle report will be done after the game also.
