2nd edition dwarves

Post by pseudo_draconic »

ive just picked up a second edition dwarf team off ebay and cant decide what to use for the troll slayers

ideas ive had

1) - convert the kickers to look like rhino charging loonys

2) - use the blockers which are pretty damn large and intimidating

3) - convert some whfb slayers (possibley them chain axe guys from storm of chaos - deathseekers?? i cant remember there name)

4) - the actual bloodbowl slayers

so , help me out guys, wot do ya think will look best with the 2nd ed dwarves???

Get yourself two Marauder Troll Slayers (late 80s) from ebay. They fit in style and size best with 2nd ed Dwarfs and are easy to convert

at least this is what I did.

I prefer the old ones too.

Those Troll Slayers (there are even two very nice Giant Slayers at the Marauder Gallery) aren't expensive, as they are not very sought after. I've seen them often in lots in lots of 3-7 for 1-2 GBP apiece which might make them expensive for you if you're only looking for two...

plus the spares in the lot can be added to my dwarf warhammer army (not that i ever use it, but it looks pretty :) ), allways a bonus :P
