Filling out positionals for the alternative teams
Posted: Mon Jun 26, 2017 12:02 pm
Forge World has released 2 alternative teams to GW's standard teams: Orcland Raiders and Bright Crusaders. These teams are the same plastic models, but with alternative resin pieces to replace/swap certain parts of the miniatures like armour and heads.
Neither teams are complete because no booster pack has been released yet to fill out positionals. We have already seen one booster pack for Skaven so it would be expected similar releases would come for the orc and human teams.
My question is, if you bought an alternative team and wanted to fill out the positionals, what are the options? There will hardly be separate booster packs for the alternative teams?
1) Use the booster-pack as is, using paint scheme to blend them in to the alternative teams?
2) Buying a 2nd alternative team, filling out positionals but also getting duplicated poses?
3) A combination of 1) and 2) with conversions to add armour and heads from the alternative teams onto the booster pack?
It sounds expensive... but I do want to "complete" these alternative teams, not have them forever limited.
