Small space elfs

 Needed a break from painting WFB Chaos so I dug out some epic eldar I aquired a few weeks back. We used to play 2nd ed Epic Space Marine quite a lot back in the day but it has been more than 25 years since the last battle. Then in the 90´s I had a space marine force (Blood Angels) and there are still some of those left somewhere. Yet as an opprtunity presented itself I could not help myself but buy those space elfs.

So far just a few bases of guardians, two falcon grav tanks, a dreadnought and a spirit warrior.

I think I have models for a war host of 12 guardian bases and 9 tanks.

The tiny dreadnought. Not to be painted when eyes are tired.

Those details are quite small.

Chaos army update

 Having finished the last of the six thug horsemen I have I felt it´s time to take a pic of all things Slaaneshian I have now. Most of these guys have beeb posted here before but not all. And certainly not all in same photo.

Six minotaurs, 12 thug archers, 20 beastmen, two beastmaster with six chaos hounds and six thug horse.

These thug horse are the last ones to be finished.

Rough points value for whole army:

Minotaurs: Lvl 20 hero, 5 minos inc. banner for 480 pts

Beastmen: Lvl 15 hero, 19 troopers inc. banner and musician for 440 pts

Thug horse: Marauder leader, 5 troopers inc. banner for 150 pts

Thug archers: Marauder leader, 11 troopers inc. banner for 170 pts

Beastmasters: Two beastmasters with six chaos hounds for 170 pts

Grand total: 1410 pts

Next I´m going to paint another 10 beastmen to have a unit of 30. And I need to add a chaos sorcerer or two. 

Moo-ve it! Moo-ve it!

 With the completion of the standard bearer and the minotaur lord this unit is now ready. As per WFB: Armies book the unit size for minotaurs is 1-5. But I plan to use the load as the general of my chaos army. And if I attach him to the unit of five minos I get to the sacred number nicely.

This is going to be one expensive unit. Each normal mino costs 40 points. So with a standard they are 240 points all together. A lvl 20 minotaur hero is another 240 points without any equipment.

The minotaur lord and two regular troopers.

Two more troopers and the standard bearer.
