Thats a new army you have little or no models for.
For me it would be Skaven.��After Dwarfs and Chaos Dwarfs it would probably be my msot favourite army I’ve never started.��I have a small O&G army as well, but that would just be completing rather than starting anew.
I absolutely love all the fluff behind skaven, the models are a bit too comical, but atm that suits them I think.��The character models are nicely done as well.
I would do either a Nurgle Daemon Legion or a Peasant heavy Bret army. Both are completely rubbish but they’d be fun. We all know the Peasants do all the work in a Bret army.
Off the top of my head I would say… Chaos, probably Khorne orientated.
Love the idea of units of these huge warriors in heavy armour taking peoples heads off with one swing of a mace, the original mini’s would need a bit of conversion just to make them a bit grittier (bit too clean as they are sold I think), coupled with deamons and sorcerers they would make a great army IMO.
Maybe one day when Chaos Dwarfs are finished and my Goblins and Ogre armies are revamped (ahh, vampires would be cool!) I will get around to a Chaos Army.
Well at the moment I am re-doing my Skaven army, as it was 5 years ago since I painted them and as such paint has come off the metal minis and they look like, well, rubbish so I’m pro-painting them now or trying to (the River Ratz, an extremly rich clan with plenty of “free” help from the greater clans in hope they can steal Corpiform’s warpstone riches!) It’s fun, SAD armies are not…
The next army I am planning, is to re-do my Vampire counts without a Vampire (simply counts as a certain model) waiting for new models and rules :~
It will be based on Richter Kruegar’s Cursed Company, for when Richter’s regiment is big enough to be used as an army in it’s own right rather than a single regiment in another army! :cheers
I do all these projects when I am building my Chaos Dwarfs as it adds to variety for painting, and I have a problem with staying on painting units of 20+ in blocks.
but if you think about it making a new army is like having a baby
it takes about 10 to 30 minutes to conceive then about nine monthes to develop( paint buy etc ) then when your ready hpefully years later you you think your ready to start all over again
then when you sell/give your army to a freind and watch it gainits like having grand children
For me it would be something nice and undead again - so either Khemri (an idea that I had a long time ago was going with a scarab-theme, i.e. exchanging the shields against large beetle husks and having chariot crews ride on huge undead scarabs) or the new Vampire Counts, depending on how cool the models are going to be.
I think I would do a highly converted Vampire Counts army. That’s one that I’ve never done before, although I have enjoyed playing with them on the occasions that I had the opportunity to. The problem with VC has always been the poor models tho, which is why I say “highly converted”. That, or perhaps add some Nurgly or Khornate mortals to my chaos army.
