With Warhammer Forge now formally announced, we can expect Forge World type models (both large and small) for each army at some point or another. Now so far no Lizardmen have been shown, but with Lizardmen being notably popular it's only a matter of time until we see some resin dinosaurs coming our way So really what would you guys like to see? And what do you expect to see coming from Warhammer Forge? Personally I'd like to see a Coatl, Arcanodon and some kind of large Therapod and possibly some form of Razordon sized mount for a skink leader And I'd personally (though I don't think this'll be popular with the lizardmen fanatics) a Thunder Lizard
If you read the book a thunder lizard would probably be 4 feet tall and and 8 feet long(to scale). It claims it doesn't even notice when it destroys a temple city as it is just "passing through" and it is all the mage priests can do to try and divert its path. While hilarious, I don't believe they have a practicable gaming application myself. As to what I would like to see: New salamanders or perhaps a carnosaur( I would love one that worked like the DE hydra)
Then how about they use a juvenile or a smaller subspecies about War Mammoth size? There's plenty of ways of making one without making it tpp enormous
give us some long range firepower. some strange ancient magical machine (like EOTG) with a 48"-60" range may be mounted on some kind of a horrible dragon turtle or so...
Not sure if GW are planning one but i'd like a 'proper' mazdamundi model. I'm not the strongest when it comes to conversion work and would love to get my hands on that model. Also i agree with rolfgar about getting carnosaurs that are encouraged into battle like other hunting pack animals, but instead of skink handlers, use saurus. Some long range weaponary options for stegs would alos be good. just my 2 cents
This just in...... http://www.warseer.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5016869&postcount=417 Note: they seem to be making models based on what they wright the books about.
Warhammer Forge is like Forge World It's set in an alternate universe to the WHFB universe. The company will make several books which have background and rules in for some of the models. The models themselves are resin and contain some much larger things than normal, as well as extra detailed models. Generally most of the models are based on what will show up in the campaign, though some are just randomly added (like the Carmine Dragon) Or mounted on the Thunder Lizard subspecies? Stegadon chariots and Carnosaurs with Saurus handlers, those ideas are genius IMO
What is the point of a stegadon chariot exactly? We have Stegadons with Howdah's on, a clearly superior and more effective design, not to mention the issues that come with trying to use such a thing in jungle terrain...WHF will be there to make all the beasty models that GW won't/can't.
A coatl would be awesome. A Monster-Lord-Mage with rules like those: http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp104/ironbriar/Quatl.jpg Phil
