Skink
thanks:)

yes, he is my first of ten Obsidian guards (or warrior with gw)
wen i got them finnished i will start playing with this army

warh:

Hoj hoj!

I played the first game with my Chaos Dwarfs and first game of warhammer today.

My enemy was Skavens, he got 1 unit of 25 clanrats,20 slaves,2 wizards,5 night runners or gutter runners,2 poison globadiers,1 ratling gun and a warp-lightning cannon.

I played with the models i had,

1 bull centaur hero,19 warriors with hw and shield and a CD hero,15 blunder busses,

15 hobgnobz,1 earth shaker and a death rocket.

I deployed my cannons on a hill and my warriors and hobgnobz to the right and blunderbusses and BC hero on the left.

He deployed his clanrats, slaves, runners rat gun and on the right side from me, the two wizards on the left, and the warp cannon in the midle(or warpstone cannon ogre slave).

First turn

I started to move my units forward, then in the shoting face I blast some clanrats with my cannons.

then it was his turn,he moved his rats forward and jumped around with his wizards. then in the magic face his wis wizards started to cast warpstone spells killing half of my BB unit:mad. In the shoting face he missfired with his warp-lightning cannon.

Turn 2

In turn two I charged his globadiers with my hobgnobz, the globs run away and then I charged his slaves with my slaves:P I killed his runners with my BBs and some mor rats with my cannons.

Then in his turn he moved his clanrats forward my cannons, his wizards was jumping around  and killing more BBs

almost the same thing happened during the rest of the turns.

I killed one of his wizards with 3 BBs then he killed the rest of my BBs and my BC hero with the other wizard.

His slaves run of the table.

He destroyed my earthshaker with his clanrats.

His wizard was jumping around my warriors and killed half of them(and they where realy jumping).

The rat-things won:(

Update:

hobgoblin+skaven=hobven:idea

m3lvin:

haha, that looks really cool!

massive hunchbabck, that’s really hobgob looking!

are these the new skaven models?

very nice. :cheers

Border Reiver:

If they are, I may have a use for them…

warh:

jepp, it´s the new ones

tjub:

Ah, looks great… I was wondering how this would look, buts as youve shown its prefect! :slight_smile:

Willmark:

Interesting. Looks malformed as a hobgoblin should be.

Grimstonefire:

Is that the newer night goblin head, or a 6th ed one?

I was looking forwards to seeing someone do this. It looks perfect to me, hunched but still strong.

Are you going to do hw +shield for them all?

warh:

grim: It’s the 6th ed nightgoblin from the time they had the eye of sauron icon:)

in the new skaven box you get 10 slaves or clanrats without armour(some of them have chains so they must be slaves) and 10 clanrats with armour.

i’m going to make all the slaves into hobgoblins and keep the others as clanrats for my skaven army

m3lvin:

WOW thats a REALLY nice hellcannon! :hat off

I like the slate stone base, really makes it stand out.

Skink:

Well done once again! The “Hobbo of the clan” is ace. That’s surely teh best hobbo that I ever saw, and of course I’ll brutally copy it!

Really really like the helcannon as well. Maybe it’s a silly question however: the screaming souls on the barrel are painted with fleshy colors or like gold? The monitors of the internet cafe aren’t working well so I can’t tell it :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Congrats for the army painting contest! Well earned!

thank you:hat off
copy the hobbo how much you want, it was not my idea(but i was first making a model of it).

the souls are painted with:

Basecoat: Vermin brown
Highlight: mix of Vermin brown and Bleached bone
Extream Highlight(very thin almost no paint on the brush): Bleached bone

Internet cafe?? it was on Games Workshop Stockholm's 10 years celebration!

Well earned? i lost against a worse painted army than minex.x
