Sorry for the late answer. The dagger including the hand is from the Great Unclean One, as well as the bell. Speaking of, I finally managed to get some work done on my gatebreaker. Still a bit work to do, but I'm quite satisfied so far.

It looks to tall to be a dwarf to me. It is a very meaty model though. Maybe something completely off like an undead orruk? Vampirates who consist several races like the chaos Warcry warbands would be awesome.

That was something my opponent did in game 2, but only on my gatebreaker. I didn't use him in that turn but my others gargants still wrecked him. The bravery shenanigans are indeed quite troublesome and you need CPs if you run mancrusher in units of three. Especially bad if the Lumineth get the spell where you need two CPs for one ability.

Had my first two games this weekend. I played breaker tribe with one of each mega gagants an 1x3 mancrusher against Lumineth Realmlords with Teclis, Light of Eltharion, 3x10 archer 3x10 spearboys and a Cathaller. (if I recall correctly) The mission was the one from the core rules where you have to controll every objective (one in each quarter) at the end of round 3. That didn't matter though because the pointy aelves got tabled at the start of round three. 🤯 In game one the Lumineth took first turn. Teclis summoned the umbral spellportal to get in range für some spells, but didn't do much (except the spell where I have to use two CP). His shooting did a few wounds, but nothing critical. His spear aelves and Eltharion moved closer. My turn was very short. I moved forward, crushed some aelves under thrown rocks and got my objectives. I got the double turn and that was where the pain started. I charged my mancrusher and kraken eater in the coming spearboys and my warstomper into Eltharion (not optimal but my only choice). And what a charg that was...my mancrusher (or aelvcrusher) decimated the whole unit (already weakened through thrown boulders) with their impact hits. Eltharion suffered 6 MW as well from the stomper. Close combat was swift and brutal. The kraken eater is very effective against shining company by removing three models on a 2+ to break the ranks. My gargants suffered some wounds, but destroyed a lot (except for Altharion, who refused to give up his last wound). In their turn the Lumineth had not much left to do. Teclis casted his protection spell to mitigate some damage, but to no avail. After some shooting and poking my gargants were hurt but still standing and crushed the last spearboys as well as Eltharion. Again, I won the roll off. We continued playing, just to see what would happen. The Lumineth had no chance in coming back at this point. Teclis caught a giant piece of rock from my gatebreaker with his face and got charged after that. After the ensuing combat phase all of the Lumineth had fallen. Game two went very similar. The setup of the lumineth was a bit different and my opponent took first turn to get Teclis protection spell on his troops. This time he managed to fell one mancrusher and almost the kraken eater, but without focusing everything on one gargant it was very hard for my opponent to fell one. All in all I was quite surprised how brutal those games went. I felt a little bad for my opponent but we had a lot of fun nevertheless. One hilarious moment in game two was, when my warstomper grabed one of two remaining spearboys to throw him at his companion to make way so my gatebreaker could pile into Teclis.

Same topic, different question. The breaker tribe in Sons of Behemat can choose a trait to get +1 to hit against heroes and wizards. Since the unit champion is a wizard, do I get the bonus as well, even though I attack the whole unit? I can't target him specifically but he is part of the unit.

Really incredible ideas/conversions. My Gargants still need some greenstuff, but I could take a few pics after work. Edit: Here they are. There is still quite some work to be done, but my Chaos Gargants are coming along.

Frostlord on Stonehorn as a follower of Nurgle is done painting.

Looks to me like the shoulderplate and the tusks from a thundertusk. If that is a gutplate, the gargant wouldn't be much bigger than an average ogor. And "trophies from the weak" is a funny side note regarding the current state of the thundertusk.

I will submit my chaos Frostlord on Stonehorn (Nurgle-conversion from the new tyrant and Alarielles warbeetle). If release and delivery goes as planned, I'll add a chaos-themed mega-gargant as well.

The post is already gone... Seems someone messed up the timing 😭 But that could mean Pre-order is up next week.

Yeah, can't find it again. What a gargant sized bummer.

"Battletome: Sons of Behemat is full of fascinating lore about the gargants – here's a snippet to whet your appetite. Pre-order the book this weekend to learn more!" This weekend? OMG, I did not expect that at all 🤩

You have got an incredible gallery here. I love every single conversion. It is very inspiring to work on my stuff again. I can't wait to see more progress on Dorghar and Galrauch. How heavy is your monstrous dragon right now? There are a lot of bits and GreenStuff in there.

Hello fellow gargant enthusiasts. After a long time of forum creeping I thought I jump in on the SoB hypetrain. I love the models and can't wait to get my hands on the first mega-gargant to convert him. The rule preview looks promising and fun, but I am eager to see the survivability of the megas. I have had bad experiences in losing my big monsters before they can do anything (one time two and a half Bloodthirster in round 1 to KO shooting - needless to say the game was over after that). I am a bit nervous about losing the big guys to fast to have any impact. Our DoK player is especially good in eliminating big things with his witch aelf blender and keeping them save until then.
