Mantic: The Hit or Miss Chronicles

[Admiral-Badruck]

Looks like a Tarellian to me.

I like it better than the Forgefathers stuff. Not a bad sculpt at all, and yeah, Space Skaven, have always been lurking about in the fan-codexes. There will be some buyers.
@Madmiral- What ever happened to those Necromunda Skaven you had?

[Admiral-Badruck]

I still have them the have joined the ranks of my tau army. Played as human aux.

Ah ha! Somebody else seems to remember the human auxiliary thing!

[Admiral-Badruck]

I am almost as big a fan of Tau as I am of Orks. One could always use these guys as counts as Kroot.

Hmm.... it seems to me that Orks could be hired as mercenaries, but they would also probably be a real handful. You'd have to keep them well paid and armed (at your peril). Most of all you'd have to make sure that you kept them well supplied with enemies and planets to conquer. It seems there would be no room for diplomacy with these guys at your side.

How about renegade marines as allies? It seems that there are a very rare few that leave the loyal Astartes to make a way of their own. Wouldn't these guys, professional warriors of the highest order, be the greatest mercenaries of all? Keep them well paid and heel their interests and perversions with a supply of whatever they want, you've got the power of a space marine in your hands.

Cool mini or not?

At first glance I thought it was a hit. On second glance, sorry mantic but I think its kind of a miss.

Who thinks this Sci-fi foray is going to flop?

Hmm...doesn't look very 'ratty' to me. Something is just not right about it. Too muscular perhaps, not slinky and sneaky. Is it supposed to be a rat ogre in space?

I thought the orks were ok but prefer the GW orks. I hated the dwarves when I saw them. I quite like what I have seen if the humans as they remind me a bit of the elysian drop droops from FW. I need to see more of the rats before I form a solid opinion. So far the humans are the only ones I would consider spending money on.

[Admiral-Badruck]

I liked the orx but the rat men hummmmmnot sure yet.
