I know that game is moving away from those, but there are still some left (Vampire Lord, Scar Veteran, Terradon Chief, Skullmaster even). Not sure if I understood what you are looking for. If you don't want any mount, just ignore that page. If you want a horse, wolf or something like that, there is a Mount option (between the minor beast and the gargantuan).

The mounted beast is something on a dracoline / karkadrak level (+2 wounds, low speed, multiple attack profiles) We lack option for a cold one/drakespawn/horse type mount. More base speed, less attacks, less wounds. It matters especially for CoS characters, where anything more than 6 wounds is prohibited from using retinue rules and being an adjutant. Everything I try to build now, cavalry hero wise either lags behind all my cavalry or has to pay almost double the mount's cost extra for speed upgrades to keep up. And it's blocked from using faction's character rules anyway. It's a bit disappointing. Edited July 11, 2020 by dekay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The builder is a bit generic for my taste but we could see some refined rules in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you dont take a mount you're paying a lot more. I was hoping to create some cool vamps on foot, and you definitely can, but for around 300 points for a 7 wound hero on foot with like 5 attacks? After looking through it all I think 10x DP for a hero on a gargantuan is fine. But i think 8x is more suited for the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeToWaste85 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 So I’m getting the book this afternoon. If I’m creative...can I make a Khorne daemon (Herald) on a dragon of Khorne OR a Slaanesh Daemon (also a Herald) on something that I can make count as a hero on a monstrous steed of slaanesh? That’s my aim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Templar_Lad Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 God i'm going to love this thread, already amazed by everyone's hero here, can't wait to see what people come up with. Finally I can have my own rules for my Viking Death worshipping Wolf King on a big undead beastie that's been sat in my cabinet for months. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you She was fun to make and paint. (Also ignore the magnet i was testing strength through base)[upload butchered the quality a tad, sorry. Only difficult to see bits are the small red lines coming out of her eyes as this pic makes them a little fuzzy] Edited July 11, 2020 by Lightbox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beliman Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) I edited a bit the Thorgrim warscroll to be more like the official ones. I removed the trait and artefact because no other warscroll has that and I added some flavour text.

TimeToWaste85 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I think people are going to be unhappy about Ethereal. Expect them to tighten the wording up, because one of the staff made undead models has ethereal and a shield and the description says the shield is only for show and useless because it is ethereal. Also, the Skaven heroes will likely have to be FAQ’d because they don’t have <skaventide> as a keyword, like all Skaven get. Fairly important. I’ll show off my Skavenbomb model later; Squealroy Warpkin. He’s a slingshot suicide bomb to be dropped in the opponents army. Expect him to do more damage than a tooled up Corruptor with the Fourfold Blade in a Legions army. Also 400pts... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedMax Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 Here is my first one. Definitively not "performance optimised". So here is the Cities of Sigmar War priest, a 11 destiny point warscoll for the 2 mini : the Warpriest and his mini gryph-hound. I've used SCE Celestral balista rules template the the 2 mini for 1 warscroll constrain. Sorry, warscroll is in French (didnt have opportunity yet to look at ENG equivalent), but in 2 line: human (4dp), with single hand hammer (1dp), priest (faith shield), minor beast companion (6dp). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Num Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Here are some more Skaven I made for my moulder and Skryre armies. The idea was to strike a balance between the models I had lying around unused, narrative, and usefulness... The moulder units bring magic and command abilities to my army along with bravery boosts. The skryre unit boosts the stormfiends and prevent them from fleeing on a 6 bravery roll... Edited July 14, 2020 by Num the points on the warscrolls are wrong: one must add 30pts on each for the Skaven ancestry 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor_Jesues Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Always wanted to make my favourite stabby boy, im rather happy with the result.

Hi, there is an Ancestries "Sylvaneth" in the liste (cost 4 DP) that grant Order, Sylvaneth, Heros keyword.
