    I have no proxies in my army, but then again I'm a bit of a WFB purist.

    As always with Lost Kingdom, their models are designed beautifully, but look a nightmare to store and transport.

    Also some GW units have not been covered and some of their units wouldn't have an equivalent Warhammer Fantasy profile, as their vision of Tomb Kings appears to be different from GW's.

    Only saw this post today as I was looking back through the thread. I knew Empire of Dust was going to be the fourth launch faction for Mantic's Armada game, but didn't realise they had developed some mockups of the ships because I thought they were still focussed on releasing the Dwarf fleet.

    They certainly don't disappoint! Worthy tributes to the Tomb Kings, which would look great alongside the one from Dreadfleet!

    Now if only they could stop trying to futilely compete with GW at selling Skaven and work on rebooting their Empire of Dust range, to punish GW for their stupid mistake of getting rid of the original Tomb King range...

    No, if you scroll up you’ll see my post about Mantic’s new Tomb King ships.

    Sorry, should have put the link up earlier as soon as I had made the post, because others had made subsequent posts later and the thread link automatically refers to the most recent post.

    I would have thought you all would have trusted me enough by now to know I wouldn’t post fake links...

    @NIGHTBRINGER @Killer Angel I just bought the Norba Miniatures' Hierotitan model (as I genuinely do not like the Bone Giant models that I have). Is there a good color scheme you can point me to? I need to buy the paints to paint it...

    Cool Mini or Not is a good website for paint job ideas.
