http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/93.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net WHFB, but it has been a long time since I played. I prefer human armies (a bit more realistic which I like), and I like the idea of having knights on foot. I see that the the Empire no longer has Reiksguard on foot, although the great swords are an option, the Bretonian book doesn't have many options and that Dogs of War have gone the way of the squats.

Any suggestion as to the best army book which to build a heavy infantry force around, and justify why? Any inut greatly appreciated.

Big guys in armour on foot.



Most of the Daemons are gone now so you could have a pure human force if you wanted. If I remember right the Daemon selection is pretty much Daemon Prince and the Hell Cannon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591794.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591794.page GMT
I don't think any fantasy army has better heavy foot than Chaos Warriors. And you get to back it up with 1st class heavy cav, and auxiliary troops (Marauder foot and cav).

If the skull and spike thing puts you off - just model it your way. Put the humans on 25mm bases and you should be good to go. There are plenty of other figure lines that could build out a Chaos army without being "chaosy".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591812.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591812.page GMT Cheers for any help,

Edit; ninja'd by RanTheCid. Thanks for the input! May have to pop into GW and have a browse of the army book. Anyone else got other ideas?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591819.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1591819.page GMT
For Hero type Warriors with a fantasy feel:
Avatar of War, Red Box

Or browse thru Fatization. They carry a variety of miniature lines.

Fenryll has a chaos line. Many of their figs are in a different vision of chaos.

What about Dwarfs? Most of there troops have heavy armour or better. You could proxy foot knights as them. No knights on horse back though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1592393.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1592393.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1592433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1592433.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1596416.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295954/1596416.page GMT
