The wizards have many strange and dangerous powers.
The production of their Thaumo-magical Weapons of Mass Death
from the strange luminescent ores and metals quarried for them from the deepest mines by the
dwarves are only one of the many evil things they make.
Another evil is the Wizards Council’s Necromancer Humane Society (NHS) who raise the dead. While the other wizards are not too keen on talking to the
dead, mainly because there might be some awkward meetings with people they have
killed, the Necromancers are always the first to be called when the Wizards
need an army.
This time the Necromancers have raised the dead of an old
human army who were slaughtered when attacking the Orcs in a long forgotten
war. Well forgotten by the humans, the Orcs still celebrate the battle’s
anniversary each year with a great feast. Just like they did the night of the original battle.
The Necromancers’ army is built around the great wizards who
bring it back from the dead as well as a great hero. The undead army is
composed of swords and bows plus a team of minor Deaths who keep the undead
under control.
When the dwarves saw the army they asked the Wizards why
there were no horses, “the humans are mad for horses when they fight” said the
dwarves. The Wizards just shrugged and said that there weren’t any intact
horses there when they raised the bones of the army. The Orcs said, “There is
good eating on a horse”, and left it at that.

Fantastic army! 'm also doing a 1/72 plastic undead army for HotT (very slowly). Can the Caesar's skeleton box be acquired somewhere? I've been looking for it for a while now.
ReplyDeleteHi Javier, thanks very much, not painted to your standard but great for me 😁.
ReplyDeleteI have not looked for them recently. I got these armies years ago as they were perfect for HOTT. All I can suggest is ebay.
I supposed that and sadly they are OOP at the moment but they could be re-released once again and it has happened with the zombies box. Crossing fingers. Cheers,
