keckmatt:

Hi,

I was curious about unit fillers. I was thinking about using a minotaur model as a unit filler for my chaos dwarf warriors. I was also trying to come up with an idea for my hobgoblin warriors. I have some old C23 ogres that I thought might work. Any ideas or suggestions wold be be appreciated. Also would it be wrong to use an ogre as a unit filler for my chaos dwarfs from a fluff sense?

It depends of the size of your units what you might use (base size!).

Here are some possible examples (ok they are very specific for my army :wink: ):

Those are pretty cool unit fillers. I’m building a big hat army and looking at unit filler base sizes around 20mm x 40mm and 40mm x 40mm.

I love unitfillers. They add so much to a regiment. There’s already an old thread with tips and tricks on unit fillers going on. Check it out and perhaps continue the discussion there, we’ll make it an ‘important thread’: Unit and rank fillers

Thommy H, Sweet. What did you use for the base of the statue?

Bloodbeard, Thanks for the link to that thread. There are some really great ideas in it.

It’s the altar from the Chaos Warshrine.

Thanks, I just picked up two of them for my warrior units. Now I just need to come up with hobgoblin unit fillers.

Ideas for hobgoblins (gonna do myself).

1. Chaos dwarf overseer on palanquin carried by hobgoblins. Eiter 2 carriers on a 40mm base or 4 carriers on a 40*60 base.

2. A hobgoblin overseer on wolf. 40 mm base.

3. Beastmaster. A hobgoblin holding a chained wolf. 40*60 mm.

4. Captured black orc in cage. 40mm base.
