Mykah Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Has anyone thought of converting the rules of Middle-Earth Battle Companies into a game of Age of Sigmar? I never played the Middle-Earth miniature range, but the format seems similar to Age of Sigmar. I look through Battle Companies book, and these rules are like Skirmish/Mordheim. It would seem to make a good narrative with only a few models and inspire you to create your heroes for bigger games. What are your thoughts on this?

michu Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Well, I don't know full rules of Battle Companies (only that published in WD), but it looks like mix of Skirmish and Path to Glory. You start with small warband and expand it with reinforcements. Maybe for AoS the example warband could look like that: Warlord Squeesnik's Retinue (25 points in Skirmish): - Skaven Warlord (Squeesnik) - Clanrat with Rusty Blade - Clanrat with Rusty Blade - Storvermin with Halberd and Shield Reinforcements: 1 - Nothing 2 - Clanrat with Rusty Blade 3-4 - Clanrat with Rusty Spear 5 - Stormvermin with Halberd 6 - Stormvermin with Halberd and Shield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWolf Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I have been thinking about the same thing. My gut feeling is the easiest way to do this is to use the Middle Earth rules, creating profiles for AoS models in that game system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just use them as the closest equivalent model and you are good to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Another one: Necromancer Ludwig Ekelmann's Winter Wolves (25 pts) - Necromancer (Ludwig Ekelmann) 22 pts -Dire Wolf (preferably Fenrisian Wolf painted white) 3 pts Reinforcements: 1 - Nothing 2-3 - Skeleton Warrior with choice of weapons (2 pts) 4-5 - Dire Wolf (3pts) 6 - Grave Guard with choice of weapons (3 pts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of what I meant, sorry. Pick an AoS unit and find a profile to match it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
