Model - Lord Mazdamundi

5th, 7th, or 8th ed rules?
Here's the 8th ed bestiary.

 

I have one [or more] plastic Triceratopsians that are very big compared to a 50x100 chariot base.

One of those might make a good Zlaaq.

How big is the FW squiggoth and what happened to the picture of it? if there was one in this thread. [?]

 

This?


This?

 

I'm guessing its just that that post was from 2009 so the pic may have been eaten since then?
Squiggoths are this big http://images.dakkadakka.com/galler...rison, Warhammer 40,000, Work In Progress.jpg

 

Looks like about 8 inches long?

 

Probably something like that yeah.

 

Thank you so much, as I understand it from the online pdf for the new age of sigmar he's registered as not having his own rules it says to take the war scroll of the engine of the gods. I think it's because he has a lot of bad rep from his old rules and his point value. I'm curious to see what his old rules are though because i'm going to attempt a conversion to make him

 

8th ed rules are in a post above and here's the 7ed rules. If you want the flavor paragraph from 6th or the original 5th ed rules I can maybe do that too. In 5th Mazdamundi was 900 points .

 

Oddly he was still cheaper that Lord Kroak, he was 1000 points.

 

Yes and no A brief history of points values...
5th ed Kroak was 620points vs 900points mazda.
6th ed Kroak rose to 1225 points and Mazda got a paragraph of flavor text.
In 7th ed Kroak was 600 and Mazda was 620
Finally in 8th Kroak was 400 and Mazda was 780

So although Kroak was worth over a thousand at one point, it was also the only point Mazda wasn't around. When they coexist Mazdamundi has always been the pricer of the two.

 

Fair enough,
but you should check out the 6th edition Kroaks rules some time,
his power level was absolutely ridiculous.

 

Very ridiculous I agree xD

 

I remember that... he was the most expensive character in the entire game.

 

lol yea, I remember, if somehow you won, but also managed to get him killed, you could only get a tie at best.

 

Yup, that is true. I really like the feel of those rules. Kroak felt like something very special.

 

Thanks again for this and the other rules I will attempt to get round to getting a copy of some rulebooks sometime at the moment i'm scouring ebay for some units for my army also I noticed a writing competition on here that i'm going to give a try

 

Absolutely you should get your story in! Looking forward to this comp!

 

I started writing it last night hopefully its in keeping with the standards everyone's used to I only know a little of the lore from online reading so I've tried to inject my own little spin on things for the purposes of the competition.

 

That's how I started writing here too! I think it works better to put your own spin on it!

 

I love it when ancient threads are resurrected. I smell necroforumancy.

Yessssss. You've still got half a month to submit a story to @Scalenex - guessing which entries are new writers/veterans are part of the fun.

Also, did anyone else find it odd that Mazda' was conflated with the Engine in the AoS rules? Usually the analogues they had tessellated relatively well but that one was jarring.
