I really doubt they will be more point-efficient than tree revenants for that role, and I am not sure there's many factions who can ally with DoK and not with Sylvaneth
They are a lot more tempting to me coolness wise tho...

Know what you mean. Heroes / dramatis personae etc esp great with round
-
Agreed with everyone else on bases tho as a sidenote Mordheim models really suit round ones!

That Wood Elf theory makes some sense of the way they used to be able to use dark magic...

Going for a list something along these lines; yet to do fine deets like points / equipment but...
Hallowheart allegiance
Nomad Prince as general
Sorceress on Dragon
Sorceress on foot possibly x 2 if I can wangle it
Fleetmaster
Assassin
White Battlemage on Luminark
10 Darkshards
10 Corsairs w handbows
20 Sisters of the Watch x 2
40 Corsairs w blades
5 Sisters of the Thorn x 2
10 Shadow Warriors
10 Executioners
16 Wildwood Rangers
10 tree revenants
Couple of Stormcasty things or maybe a Scourgerunner?
6 Blood Knight Mercs conceivably inc a vamp lord
Presumably given it's Hallowheart some endless spells
How does this vaguely look...?
-
I sort of hope cities moves towards mixed race as in aelf / human / duardin motley crews, would look really cool. As it is my proxies regiments have that vibe anyway!
thinking a bit like old DoW Cursed Company only alive!!

Honestly that sounds like such a cool refreshing list and a match up that will make a great story! And definitely get the Gargant
-
Proxy proxy proxy in Cities force, yeah, that’s what Cities are for! Wouldn’t worry about changing bases especially if playing relatively friendly games?

Have since acquired old Neferata and cat, 6th ed mounted Lahmian and Bretonnian chess rook mounted hero ... more Darkling / Blood Knight options...
might also be worth adding the theme is going to be along the lines of the old trickster gods, aelven Loec and human Ranald, with new Prince of Cats lore mixed in
-
I think his seller was offering more of him on eBay! I also got some other cool elf, rogue and Arabyan looking models off them, mostly likely to become blades Corsairs. They aren't GW but they are mostly about right scale and look great
Any thoughts on what list I can make with the rest of the gang...?
-
This guy. He’s non GW and tiny but I think would look fun with enough trading junk / body guards / exotic beasts surrounding him
-
Anyone here checked out my Bryttanlai stuff on Narrative and Play?
EDIT:
-
After many adventures on eBay I have what I'm convinced is a cool and battle worthy Cities army. I'd just like help fine-tuning exactly how!
HEROES
The Tzarina of Kislev, or, alternatively, an old Witch Elf heroine, mounted on a (smallish but ferocious looking) Manticore.
Presumably a Freeguild General on a Griffon or a Supreme Sorceress on a Black Dragon. Thematically feels like should be general but tactically suppose need not be.
High Elf Korhil model, probably a Fleetmaster.
Old Corsair, possible alternative Fleetmaster.
Old Izzy von Carstein, Darkling Sorceress.
Dark Elf Assassin (phew an easy one)
Arabyan Wizard on Carpet - Battlemage on Hurricanum / Luminark? Have ideas to bulk him out a bit which will be included below.
Endless options for Nomad Princes, Anointeds, Generals on foot or Battlemages.
REGIMENTS
(fairly straightforward ones first)
16 Freeguild Crossbowmen. No command group as yet though could probably coopt one from elsewhere.
11 Shadow Warriors, several options for their Walker.
10 Corsairs with handbows, including command group.
10 Darkshards. No command group.
5 6th ed Bretonnian Questing Knights plus Dogs of War Merc General. Musician, standard bearer to be converted / added asap. Going to count as Mercenary Blood Knights.
(more ambiguous)
10 Doomfire Warlocks. I got these because I love their models and background. Lorewise they will be escaped rebels. Ruleswise, could be Sisters of the Thorn, Pistoliers or Outriders. Could be two units. No command
15 cloaked, mostly human, mostly dual wielding miscellaneous models (also includes a panther). Am currently thinking Corsairs with blades but could also be something Freeguild? Command group could be converted / improvised
18 miscellaneous humans, some dual wielding, some with a single weapon. Combat Freeguild of some kind? Command group also feasible
(I am slightly reluctant to combine two above items as they rock quite different aesthetics but will hear out advice)
10 humans dual wielding with pistols. Could be Handgunners or Guard? Could if necessary meld in with the 18?
10 Swordmasters of Hoeth, command group. Could be executioners or wildwood rangers?
16 miscellaneous models, mostly human with smattering of elves, wielding double handed weapons. Command group feasible. Would look weird combined with the Swordsmasters. Greatswords? Rangers? More execs?
6 humans armed with large blackpowder weapons, 6 bowmen, champion options within each group. Make them all handgunners or archers? Sisters of the Watch?! Meld them with pistol wielders on foot?
(really out there)
Eleven Clan Eshin skaven including a leader.
Mordheim Ogre bodyguard.
Winged nightmare.
Options here include:
Make the Skaven my City's secret ally for long term nefarious reasons of their own and count them as more Shadow Warriors
Convert up the Ogor, the Skaven and or the nightmare into some weird Scourgerunner Chariot proxy
Put aforementioned Witch Elf or Tzarina? on nightmare and count as Phoenix!
Use Ogre and nightmare to pimp up Hurricanum / Luminark concept above
***
Phew that's it. Still far from sure which city rules to use as I suppose it depends on what decisions I make about proxying. Backgroundwise they're their own thing, lost and godless mercs.
EDIT: Am open to literally any other ideas, including counts as for Kharadron or Sylvaneth - though I'd need some persuading to include Stormcast beyond possibly the odd solo hero, their lore size makes it feel off

There’s a Vampirate active in Aqshy mentioned in Soulbound. Varkos Varactyr I think

I think nothing beats cities for open ended flexibility of models theme etc

I don’t think the Fyreslayer queens’ pregnancies present a big problem!! Look at medieval history - widows, mothers and mothers-in-law could take control and exercise huge power, especially in the event of male death in battle / disease. Duardin are naturally long lives and/but Fyreslayers are prone to dramatic deaths. Have queens be young widows or seasoned veterans past childbearing years
or even single valkyries of course!
-
Freeguild with sword and shield using motley medley of Dogs of War Mordheim and Empire militia surely unbeatable for coolness if fairly beatable in other respects!!

now bolstered the above with 10 Darkshards and a Mordheim Witch Hunter hero with great sword...

You collect your City in a similar way to me! Aesthetic nostalgia for models, especially characters, comes first, second and third...

Personally I would be surprised if Malerion is not ‘keeping his powder dry for something huge’ rather than ‘being manipulated and usurped by mom’, but I enjoy all speculation on subject. I’d like the Ms to stay related but fractious
I’m also particularly hoping to learn more about Ulgu humans who by necessity serve / respect big Mal. Soulbound opened up v interesting vista of squabbling petty kingdoms
