These are hand carried artillery and while this is quite an interesting twist on the more traditionnal war machine, it is clearly a separation from the Hell Train carriage system that we have come to all love (well maaaaaybe not all of us, but it became Chaos Dwarf core).
While I really enjoy the historical twist, I must say I’ll have to wait and see how I feel about the lack of wheels (or train track, or deamon shenanigans)
GROND! GROND! GROND!
That brazen bull warmachine is awesome!! I like the fanatics and the hero is a beast!
Both bulls and Taurus are a miss in this state for me, the ideas are neat to me, but the faces and expressions are totally off (nothing that couldn’t be easily fix with minor 3d sculpting work tho)
I like the concept of the brazen bull, but it being pushed by dwarven slaves is a bit sad for me. Oh this hero is glorious. Really create this “sultan” vibe.
Really agree with you on this.
All in all it’s a bit of a mixed bag for me. I like the infantry a lot and the caracters. I’m more on the fence for the war machines (require some kitbash in my opinion, and the brazen bull is a bit goofy). Bulls and Taurus are a hard pass for me personally.
Agreed on the amazing character. Everything else has lil bits I would use but overall the war machines aren’t for me. All those crewdwarfs would find great homes in kitbashes though. The two crewmen on top of grond especially and welding mask lad.
Needs some hobgoblins and ogre loader to shine.. and helm swaps for me to never have to look at those bull centaur faces. The one helmed bull centaur is menacing.
Hobgoblins arrive next month, some preview seems quite promising. They are in my opinion the ones who benefit the most from the “historical” spin of the range
